Three months later, Sofía stood in her new penthouse overlooking the city.
Smaller than the mansion.
But peaceful.
No lies echoing in the walls.
No fake love at the dinner table.
No one spending what they didn’t earn.
Her phone buzzed once.
A message.
Mauricio.

She looked at it for a long moment.
Then deleted it.
No reply.
Because the truth didn’t need to be said out loud.
