Even though my folks were chill about me not wanting to take over the family business, I couldn’t be that selfish Plus, it didn’t seem like Neil and I were getting a divorce anytime soon Rather than wasting time struggling with pointless emotions, I might as well start changing myself and choose a different path in life.
