Richard's POV

“The next step to take now is sue her, Richard. You need to take the custody of your child, you can't sit here all day and mop over the loss of a child to her mother who is refusing to let you have her. You're more than this Richard and you deserve better too. Sue Vanessa Decruz and get your daughter out of there”

After she had slammed the door in my face the previous day, I walked away from the house with all the strength left in me. Suddenly I felt too weak to drive home, too weak to sleep through the night, too weak to carry my office documents and take a look at them, too weak to attend the board of directors meeting, too weak to carry on with life. Vanessa had managed to shred me off the rest of energy left in me.
