(Adrian) I kept looking at the date on the payment record. My mother had never told me she was fired from Wolfe, and she had never mentioned Warren Pryce controlling an account in her name. She had always said leaving the company was something she needed to do. I was starting to wonder how much of that story she'd been forced to accept. "Ask Priya what happened when our father returned." Sebastian put the phone back to his ear. "What happened after Alexander came back from London?" Priya searched while we waited. "Give me a minute." Sebastian walked toward the window. Zara remained at the table with me. I could tell she wanted to ask questions, but she gave me space. I appreciated that more than she knew. "Did your mother ever talk about Wolfe?" I looked at Zara. "Not much."
