Sarah spent nine years running Richard's household before learning his mistress Chloe had held a parallel place for seven. The blow deepened when their neurodivergent son Leo publicly rejected her for a school event, labeling her a loser. She filed for divorce and surrendered custody, yet Richard expected her to remain as an unpaid caregiver. Sarah secured his signature on the papers and walked away with only two pairs of flats. Chloe later staged a fake emergency using ketchup to lure Sarah back, leading to a confrontation where Richard shoved Sarah down stone steps into a storm. At the hospital, Sarah cut ties completely, obtained a restraining order, retook the bar exam, and joined a top Manhattan firm. Years later, Richard begged her to handle his divorce from Chloe; she refused and slapped him. Chloe then stabbed Richard, Leo inquired about trust funds, and Sarah made partner, having long since left the mother on those rainy steps behind.
