Valerian watched as Zelda was about to storm out of the house, clearly heading to the company. He grabbed her arm, trying to stop her.

“Mom, Callie is your daughter, after all. If we think about it, we haven’t always been fair to her. Now that Lisette’s not around, maybe we should try being a bit nicer to her. Maybe we need to change a little.”

“Change?” Zelda cried, furrowing her brow. “What change? She’s been nothing but bad luck for us. The company’s in trouble, Lisette’s in jail, and Horatio’s legs… it’s all because of her!

Valerian sighed, realizing this was going to be an uphill battle.

“Mom, please, let’s just talk about this,” he pleaded.

But Zelda was resolute. “I have to go to the office. If we hand the company over to her, it’ll be a disaster. You think she’ll give back what she’s taken? She’s always been holding grudges against us all these years!”
