I looked at the audience, filled with women and men ready to seize new opportunities.
“And when one learns to respect oneself—” Life always offers a new beginning.
Applause filled the auditorium.
That evening, on my way home, I took off my heels and looked at the illuminated city through the bay window.
For the first time in a long time, there were no more secrets, no more trials to overcome, no more masks to wear.
Only peace.
And I understood something simple, but powerful:
The real promotion of this night… has never been Laurent’s.
It was mine.
And this time, no one would ever make me feel less than I am again.
