Clara couldn't take her eyes off the photograph.
Edward Delevon.
Adrian Voss.
And Eleanor Delevon.
Three names.
Three people who had apparently been connected to an agreement that had remained hidden for fifteen years.
But why had her mother signed it?
And why had her grandmother gone to such lengths to keep it away from the family?
Clara slowly turned toward Eleanor.
"Mom, do you know anything about this agreement?"
Eleanor had gone unusually quiet.
Her eyes were fixed on the photograph, and her fingers had tightened around the magazine she had been holding.
Edward noticed her reaction.
"Eleanor?"
She didn't answer immediately.
"Where did you get that photograph, Clara?" she finally asked.
"Grandmother's private archive. It was stored with the original Project Phoenix records."
Eleanor closed her eyes briefly.
"I see."
Clara approached her.
"Mom, I need you to tell me the truth. Why is your name on that document?"
Eleanor looked at Edward.
