Kneeling in Despair

For twenty years, John played the fool. He cooked. He cleaned. He let his wife believe she wore the pants. All while secretly running the biggest company in the country. Then Eva betrayed him. Their children cast him out. They thought they'd won. They had no idea John was just getting started. He reclaimed his CEO throne. He destroyed their careers. At the company gala, he ripped off the mask. Eva and her lover were fired on the spot. Then John proposed to his childhood sweetheart—the woman he should have chosen decades ago. Eva knelt in despair. John didn't look back. Mercy died twenty years ago. Tonight, vengeance lives.
