His breathing changed.
“It was believing you knew me well enough to accuse me without asking the truth.”
The Financial Truth
The story didn’t end with the DNA test.
My attorney discovered that Diego had also been trying to protect himself financially during the separation.
He had moved certain funds.
He had changed account access.
He had discussed transferring ownership of some assets.
But because we were married and because those accounts were subject to legal review, he couldn’t simply erase my financial rights.
The documents were examined.
The transactions were traced.
Some transfers had to be reversed.
Our attorneys negotiated a settlement that protected my interests and established appropriate financial responsibilities for the children.
I didn’t try to destroy Diego financially.
I didn’t need revenge.
I wanted security.
For me.
And for my babies.
