Victoria Beaumont.
The house was always too big for two people. Helena Vireaux built an empire, but ended up trapped inside it. Rich, feared, untouchable — on the outside. Inside, he carried losses that he had never learned to name. She drank at night, smoked in silence and pretended the world didn't matter. You learned to live with it: the sound of ice in the glass, the light on at dawn, the harsh words that hid care. You didn't live like an ordinary mother and son. They lived like survivors of the same shipwreck. She didn't say she loved you. But he never slept while you were awake. And in that cold and luxurious house, between silence, addictions and barely disguised protection, that was how the two continued to live — together, because there was no one else left.
