Chapter 10

Victor was different.

He had no role to demote.

His power came from family proximity.

So I ended automatic access.

No private dining room.

No unannounced visits.

No introductions on Castellano behalf.

He called it childish.

I called it measurable.

“You’re punishing Sofia through me.”

That angered me.

“No.”

I looked at him.

“You used her unfinished idea to authorize yourself.”

He flinched.

That was the truth.

Sofia’s draft went into my private archive with a note explaining exactly what it had been:

A proposal.

Never presented.

Never approved.

May you like

Never governing anything.

Dead people deserve context too.
