The Widow’s Fate They Chose Was My Escape Plan Chapter 35
After the chairman was removed, Hudson Crest reexamined all of his decisions.
He had wanted to use the review to overturn Quinn Industries’ relocation. Instead, the board confirmed that the original business plan had been formally approved and that Sebastian’s health had not been the sole basis for the decision.
The special committee also revoked his proposal to take over the Miami office.
When Eleanor received the result, she laughed out loud.
“He schemed for three years, and in the end, he cleaned out every last hidden danger for us himself.”
But what truly let me breathe easier was the formal closing notice from the regulators.
The complaint against my agency had no factual basis.
Several clients’ families who had asked to terminate services called again to apologize.
I didn’t blame them. Families who need home care are already under enormous pressure. It was only natural to worry.
After all this, I decided to place the agency’s license, clinical supervision structure, and fee schedule in a public section of our website.
“The more people try to use your past against you, the more openly you have to stand in the light.”
Eleanor said that while helping me organize documents.
I smiled and called her, “Mom.”
She paused, and her eyes reddened.
“You child. You finally understand that when something happens, you don’t have to shoulder it all by yourself.”
Sebastian leaned in the doorway watching us, a smile on his face.
That night, he placed a document envelope in front of me.
Inside was not a board report, but a divorce proposal already prepared by lawyers.
