Chapter 5: The Unlikely Alliance
Elena approaches Clara, who is currently draped in Julian's suit jacket, trying to keep warm. Instead of anger, Elena offers a profound apology. She reveals that she has spent her life turning a blind eye to her father's ruthless tactics, but seeing physical violence against an innocent woman was the breaking point. The two women, entirely different in status and wealth, form a quiet bond grounded in a sudden, harsh reality.
