A farewell far more bitter than expected
Léa watched the rain tracing whimsical paths down the windowpane. Seventeen years. So many memories piled into a chest now rusted shut. The laughter, the tears, the promises whispered in haste… all unraveling like old fabric.
“We need to talk.”
Thomas’s voice was oddly smooth, as if he’d rehearsed the line in front of a mirror. She turned slowly, and in his eyes, she saw what she’d feared for months: the cold resolve of a man who’d already chosen his path.
“I’m leaving, Léa. For Laura.”
Silence. Only the ticking of her grandmother’s clock persisted in the space between them.
“Laura? Your coworker?” she asked, her voice eerily steady.
“Yes. I… I don’t feel anything anymore. I need change, passion. You’re a strong woman—you know life’s too short for…”
She cut him off with a smile. “Strong woman”—his go-to phrase to avoid confrontation.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes. My things are already in the car.”
Léa nodded, opened the wine cabinet, and pulled out a bottle of Romanée-Conti, saved for a special occasion.
“Well then, let’s celebrate.” The cork popped with a sharp sound. “Invite your loved ones. Seventeen years deserve a proper goodbye.”
Thomas blinked, unsettled.
“You want… to throw a party?”
“Of course.” Her smile widened—one that sent a shiver down his spine. “I’ll make your favorite dishes. And tell Laura she’s welcome.”
Revenge is best served slowly
The next evening, the apartment was filled with the aroma of beef bourguignon and chocolate fondant. The table was set with funeral elegance, the silverware aligned like weapons.
Guests arrived one by one—awkward, curious. Thomas’s parents, childhood friends, and finally… Laura, stiff in a too-short dress, her nails bitten raw.
Léa raised her glass.
“To Thomas. To our seventeen years. And above all… to the little details we overlook.”
She pulled out a stack of documents.
“The Porsche loan? In both our names. Your startup’s unpaid debts? To be settled before liquidation. And those lovely candlelit dinners? All charged to our joint accounts.”
Thomas paled. Laura stopped breathing.
“But the best is yet to come.” Léa unfolded a contract. “The infidelity clause. If we divorce due to adultery, you lose everything: the apartment, the accounts, even your share in the art gallery.”
The silence was deafening.
“The papers are signed. The evidence sent to your lawyer.” She smiled—truly—for the first time in months. “So, Thomas… bon appétit.”
No one touched dessert.
Epilogue: One year later
The “Léa & Co.” gallery opened to applause. Laura had left Thomas six months prior, taking what remained of his ego with her. As for him? He now lived in a studio apartment—no car, no masterpiece paintings—but with an unforgettable lesson:
Some women don’t cry. They calculate.
