This interpretation is yours. I acknowledged earlier that nothing was 
implied on my end. Whether you believe or not is a different matter and 
beyond the point of this thread.

Since you failed to quote the second half of my previous reply, I'll 
paste it again:

"Please accept my sincere apologies"

Should you decide to reply to this email, I would appreciate you quoting 
it in full instead of selective pieces of it to fulfill your narrative.

I have come clean and apologized for my wrongs, now is the time to shake 
hands and move on.
