Christ...I wish I could shake your hand right now. That took phenomenal strength of you. For what it's worth, I am incredibly proud of you.

You are smart to call him on his bluff...there's no "freedom" in this for him. You, on the other hand, have broken years of silence and undue loyalty to him regarding this. If anyone is free, it is you.

I don't think you've caused havoc. I don't expect this will be taken per se well...but this isn't your fault. Not one single bit. You have done the right thing, especially if he's expecting to meet his ex's daughters. I hope that plan falls through.

Please try not to worry. He is in the wrong here, not you, and you won't have your job affected by this. Please try to get some rest when you can.

If I can do anything for you, please don't hesitate to PM me. I commend you and respect you immensely for what you've done.
