  1. I don’t care what you did. You cannot yell at and control and manipulate another human being. Ownership of another person is illegal all around the world. I would not be late for my job because of a loud, disrespectful, big mouth husband. God builds humans, not a husband.

  2. That serves him right. He learnt the hard way.

    It’s not easy to deal with someone who is educationally limited. They can be generous but are not conversant.

    I have walked that path and when I left it felt like diabolical délivrance 😂

  3. I would have left when he woke me up to prepare yam when I have surgery planned. As a doctor, I would have refunded him the cost of the course, because even though his money paid for medical school, passing required Adesi's brain and effort.

  4. She made the right decision just because he trained her. Doesn't mean he gets to own her and control her, and at the rate he was going, he was going to make her lose her job. Anyway, which meant all that school and money would have been for nothing talking about cut hours only can go when he want her to go. He must have lost his mind. He got exactly what he deserved. Men always think that we are replaceable, never thinking what they replace us with is not going to be as good as we were. And not going to take all the foolishness that we took

  5. 🤬🤬🤬🤬 me dió rabia, ese era un hombre con dinero Pero frustrado, porque su esposa era profesional, lo mando a la mierda, y le pago cada centavo que me dió, para no deberle

  6. Hey I experienced that with an ex preacher husband. But thank God he didn’t pay for my college education. It was the Lord who provided. This man is full of pride. He didn’t know the value of his wife until she was gone. I’m sorry she married an insecure man. Of course I would bounce. Ain’t nobody got time for foolishness. Good girl! Choose you each and every time. If he can’t respect you then it’s time to bounce.

  7. 🇿🇦. She did the best thing for herself for leaving. Forgiving him and giving him a chance to be in their kid's life was her kindness. Hope he learned his lesson. Wonderful storyline and well narrated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🙏🏻
