Resentment

"So gross...now she can't do anything but exercise her tyrannical, hysterical power over her poor, submissive husband that she had used all her life."

Zion tilted his head.

"She still managed to separate Ivy and me."

"Maybe, but it only took you a few days to destroy everything she founded. Her beloved divorced son, her oh-so-adorable grandchildren from the criminals, Darian she never managed to either tame or win over to her side, and Ivy driving her out of the famous Vaegos empire forever."

"Yes, I feel sorry for her. Especially when you gave her that very, very mocking and ruthless little goodbye gesture before she disappeared behind the door."

"I couldn't help it. I could have long ago, betrayed her and had her convicted. But I wished it would come from those she has fought for all her life. That would be the worst. I was right. And I was rewarded beyond words for my patience. "

Zion shook his head, laughing.
