The final sentence resonated in the room.
Ruth Dawn turned around and started to walk towards the door.
William Cole's mind was pounding, he lifted up his head, and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Ruth Dawn!"
Ruth Dawn's petite figure halted in its tracks.
In her recollections, William had never shouted at her before.
Over the three years of their marriage, William had always been compliant to her every whim, he had never even raised his voice.
"You…" Ruth Dawn turned around in surprise.
William's eyes were bloodshot, "When have you ever really looked at me?"
"I would drop you off to work, I'd pick you up from work."
"I know that in your eyes, I am just a son-in-law, a waste!"
"I am not a nobody!"
"But as a man, I too have dignity. It doesn't matter that you misunderstand me, but you can't belittle me! You can't look down on me!"
You want a divorce, right?"
"Fine!"
