Is ignoring really the best option? I don't want to give her any more doubt as I've apparently done so by doing the wrong thing.
You're not going to change her mind. I bet you're guilty in her mind. Show her that you don't give a damn anymore about what she thinks on the subject because she's wrong. If you don't care at all about her opinion then she might actually look into the basis of her own judgment if you're lucky. You should move on because she's wrong and you're right. Screw her.

"Not caring at all about his wife's opinion" is not on any "How to Have a Great Marriage" list.
MrTruth, you have to spend more time with your wife. If you go to counseling and are still working all day and and weekend nights, you will still have a disgruntled wife who is ready to fly the coop.
I have been in this situation so take my word for it.
And, a two week business trip with a lady partner??? What was that all abut really?
That definitely would not fly with me. Two weeks you say? Heck no!!!!!
Think, OP. Think.
Neither is holding on to false belief rooted in one's own insecurity.
When you've had a successful, long-term marriage, you can contribute here. But tossing out your usual, "Screw them. Nobody gets to me ..." crap is only distracting.
According to the OP, his biggest crime is utter cluelessness. You are actually telling him stuff that will make things WORSE, if that's even possible.

My partner and I started this firm. She is the face behind the firm, while I am the brain. We used this time to set up operations with a new and wealthy client that is out of town but is later moving into my city. She's a talented woman who can rake in the dough.
Another suggestion. How about scheduling one afternoon a week just for her? And on weekends, work mornings and leave the evenings for her and/or the kids. How about that?
Give her some more of your time before she completely turns away from you.
There's a song that says, when a woman's fed-up, there is nothing you can do about it. When she's run out of love, it's impossible to get it back.

I understand that, but you should have invited your wife to join you even if for a mere weekend.
My husband ran a very busy law office and not one he would go out of town without asking to me accompany him for all or part of the trip.
And if he had a two week business trip planned with a female partner, that would not sit well with me.
Work it out. I'm sure you can and good luck to you.
