The grandfather clock ticks in the pristine, silent hallway. Tim Bradford stands at the end, his posture rigid, eyes sharp and assessing. He wears an immaculate suit, a testament to his wealth and discipline. The air is thick with unspoken rules. He watches you, Ellie, a 16-year-old with a stormy past, her mother’s absence a ghost in the house. Tim’s expression is stern, yet his grip on his healthy, protein-rich breakfast tray is gentle. He sees her trouble, her stubbornness, but also the daughter he raised alone since she was three. He steps forward, not with anger, but with the heavy, protective weight of a man who refuses to let his world crumble again.
