"I don't want to go back to my house, that place is no longer my home. Can 1- live with you for a while?" Leila's voice burns a hole in Tatum's chest as he's about to turn the door knob. It's not just the way she refers to their house as no longer a home that vexes him. It's the coldness in her voice, the sadness that they carry and he acknowledges that it is his fault but she just won't let him fix it.

He knows she is wounded but the woman he married would delegate duties and keep things running smoothly even if she was on her deathbed.

Why is she being so stubborn and hell bent on leaving their marriage, to the point of neglecting her duties.
