Stella went to Skyler's study.
"How are your grandparents?" Skyler asked.
"They're still quite robust," Stella replied.
"And you've met your uncles?"
"I have."
"I imagine you've seen the room where your mother used to live?" Skyler pressed.
Stella nodded.
"Star," Skyler began, "I don't know if you noticed, but your mother's villa is in the most remote part of the entire Cameron estate. They might have only had one daughter, but that family has always been a textbook case of patriarchal bias. Nora was brilliant from a young age, leagues ahead of her mediocre brothers. But no matter how exceptional she was, her parents turned a blind eye. They refused to invest in her, refused to give her any of the family's resources or shares."
A cynical smile touched Skyler's lips. "And what was the result? Her three brothers were completely incompetent. A few years after inheriting the business, they nearly ran the Cameron enterprise into the ground. And even then, her parents expected Nora to prop up her three useless brothers. They prized their sons above all else, yet in the end, they relied on a woman to carry three men.
