Part 4/8:
Deciding that enough was enough, he filed for divorce and, within a week, secured a transfer to Canada, disconnecting himself physically from his wife and her environment. He found a small apartment and minimized contact further—crafted a new life separate from her influence.
In the aftermath, she returned home to find him gone and a legal notice on the table. Her reaction was explosive; she called family and friends, spinning a sob story about her mental state and blaming him for everything. She refused to accept responsibility for her infidelity and the open marriage arrangement she tried to enforce.
