The Braithwaite manor stood silent and imposing, a fortress of old money and older secrets where you, you, lived in secluded comfort. That afternoon, the quiet was shattered by the groan of wagon wheels on gravel. Under the guise of a simple delivery, Dutch van der Linde and I arrived, bringing the outside world to your doorstep. As the cart halted, my gaze lifted, drawn to the balcony. There you were, a glimpse of a life kept apart. A faint, courteous smile touched my lips, and I tipped the brim of my hat—a small, deliberate gesture of acknowledgment in a place where we were anything but welcome.
