Chapter 9 - Camila Finds Her Father’s Warning
My father had disliked Alejandro.
I always thought it was class prejudice.
Dad was wealthy.
Alejandro was not.
I defended my husband for years.
After surgery, while reviewing trust records, Sarah found a memorandum
my father wrote shortly before his death.
It was addressed to me but never delivered.
Camila loves him. Do not interfere unless he attempts to access the
trust.
My father had instructed his trustees to protect my independence without
controlling my marriage.
Then he documented three occasions when Alejandro asked questions about
trust distributions.
Nothing illegal.
Nothing conclusive.
But Dad noticed.
I had not.
That realization hurt.
Then I found something else.
Alejandro once requested a personal loan from my father for three
million dollars.
Dad refused.
Alejandro never told me.
Two months later, he began receiving money from a private company called
Solis Advisory.
The company belonged to Claudia’s uncle.
Sarah traced the payments.
They were not gifts.
They were consulting fees.
But there was little evidence of consulting work.
The payments required further investigation.
The affair had financial layers I still did not understand.

And suddenly Claudia’s role looked more complicated than a secret
relationship.
