Just like Mason predicted, Ruben was arrested. Him, his father, and his brother. All of them.
When the news broke, I followed every update. Fraud wasn't even the worst of it. Authorities discovered Ruben's family had ties to a human trafficking operation that had been under investigation for years.
Those bulky men that used to come to the house finally made sense. I never understood why Ruben kept them around or what business they were there for. All I knew was that whenever they showed up, I would take Lior and lock us both in the bedroom and stay there until they were gone. It was the only time Ruben never called me out to serve anyone.
I was grateful Lior and I got out when we did. All this time, I thought Ruben was just a selfish, cruel husband. Turns out I didn't know half of it.
