Later that evening, social media posts caught her attention. They showed a magnificent hacienda decorated for a ceremony. Watching a live stream, Mariana realized that Javier was attending her sister’s wedding.
She also saw her mother-in-law looking very well.
At that moment, she realized that her absence was not due to a family emergency.
This discovery led her to reflect on the many years during which she had put the needs of others before her own.
The next morning, she checked their joint bank account. She found that her personal savings were still deposited there and that several expenses related to the wedding arrangements had been paid from that account.
After much deliberation, she made an important decision.
