A Father's Reckoning

Summary

Because my wife refused to accompany a business partner for drinks, I put her in the hospital. I did it because, in my previous life, trying to shield her from the endless toasts, I'd ended up passed out cold. The next day, I woke to find myself branded a monster—a drunk who’d abused his own daughter and driven her to her death by suicide.

Before she jumped, my daughter left a suicide note, claiming she couldn’t bear my long-term abuse. But I’d always cherished her, loved her more than life itself. I would never abuse her, especially not in a drunken rage, let alone systematically!
