Chapter 9 - Ryan Turns Against His Sister
Ryan called Claire.
“You always hated me.”
“No.”
“You came back and stole Mom.”
Claire almost laughed.
“You slapped her.”
“She was destroying everything Dad built.”
“No. She was stopping you from gambling it.”
Ryan went silent.
Then he said, “You don’t know what Harbor Point is worth.”
“I know what you risked.”
Ryan’s resentment finally surfaced.
Thomas had praised Claire for walking away from family money.
Ryan interpreted every compliment as criticism of him.
Harbor Point was supposed to be the deal that made him undeniable.
Instead, it became the hole he needed Eleanor’s assets to fill.
Before ending the call, Ryan said, “Mom will forgive me.”
Eleanor had heard him on speaker.

She answered herself.
“Forgiveness and access are not the same thing.”
