Hi Yoyo. Saw your post earlier, but I had to run to the office Christmas party. So, it sounds like you are doing well with him.
From this distance, it looks like you have become more demanding of him behavior-wise. And he is still coming back. So, I see improvement, but not a lot. It is good that he mouths words regarding firing her, even if it isn't happening. At some point either he will do it (I'm not holding my breath), or she will get the idea that she is not his top priority and go look for another man she can control. After all, that's what she does for a living. Working in his office is just a sideline. And it sounds like her ex is still out there as an option. She could even go back to him. (Assuming he has been able to rebuild some wealth after the last time she took him for all he had.)
But I have to say, no one could handle him better than you. (That's not a pun.)
