“My mother doesn’t live with us.”
“Does she receive mail there?”
“Sometimes.”
“Does she have a key?”
“Yes.”
“Then change the locks, but coordinate with building management. Do it properly.”
I looked through the glass panel in the door. Maya was awake, watching Liam sleep.
“Daniel, what is Hudson Family Consulting?”
“I don’t know.”
“There are repeated transfers from the account.”
“To a person or a company?”
“It says company.”
“Send me the details. I’ll look into it.”
When I returned to the room, Maya noticed my expression.
“You watched the cameras.”
It was not a question.
“Yes.”
She folded her hands over the blanket.
“How much did you see?”
“Enough to understand that you tried to stop them.”
“I should have tried harder.”
“No.”
“I let her take the formula.”
“You had just had surgery.”
“I still let her.”
I sat beside her.
“Maya, listen to me. I am not going to make you responsible for what they did.”
