Sophia’s Father Does Not Take Over
Chapter 12 - Sophia’s Father Does Not Take Over
Reporters called Victor the billionaire father who arrived to save his daughter.
He rejected the story.
“Sophia activated the emergency code. Elena preserved evidence. Doctors treated her. Lawyers enforced the trust. I entered through a door.”
The distinction mattered.
Victor had once tried to manage Sophia’s adult life. After her mother died, he became overprotective and controlling in quieter ways.
Sophia married Ethan partly because Ethan appeared independent of her father.
Victor understood that his old behavior had helped make Ethan’s resentment believable.
He apologized without turning the apology into a claim on her future.
Sophia did not move into his estate.
She chose a secure apartment near the hospital.
