Chapter 15 - THE VOICEMAILTwo weeks before the fall, I left Victoria a voicemail.

“Victoria, I need to be completely clear. You are welcome at the lake house for short visits when we agree in advance. You do not have permission to move there permanently. Please do not sell or give up housing based on something Julian told you.”

Why did I leave it?

Because Julian had casually said:

“Mom’s condo sale closes next month.”

I panicked.

Victoria never returned the call.

Phone records showed she listened to the voicemail twice.

Then sold anyway.

That eliminated innocent misunderstanding.

She knew.

She chose Julian’s promise over my boundary.
