Caleb told me Travis accused him of being disrespectful, then threatened to lie if he tried contacting me.

While I worked abroad, Caleb slept in garages, ate expired food, and tried to survive. Meanwhile,

Travis turned our home into a party house.

I was beyond furious—with him, and with myself.

I got Caleb a warm room, a hot meal, and made one call—to Marcus, an ex-cop friend. We staged a fake arrest,

demanded $15,000 from Travis, and he paid—terrified of a lawsuit. The next day, I filed for divorce.

When he raged in my office lobby,

I stood calm and said, “You failed my son. We’re done.”

I gave every cent of that money to Caleb.

“Put it toward something that matters,” I said. We moved into

a small apartment near his school,

just the two of us. Life is quieter now, but stronger.

Because no matter what,

I’ll always choose my son—and no man will ever come between us again.
