Chapter 15 - The Trust Before the Birth
The Bennett Maternal Health Fund held an emergency public hearing.
Claire could keep the controlling shares inside a private family trust.
Or she could activate Amelia’s independent maternal-and-worker structure before delivery.
The private option would make Claire and her child extremely powerful.

Claire retained personal security, healthcare, and compensation for the fraud.
Her unborn child received no automatic control over hospitals and clinics.

“My mother built care systems, not a throne for an unborn baby.”
The transfer occurred weeks before delivery.
