Chapter 49 - The Last Thing She Gave Away
Clara decided to establish one final trust.
Not for herself.
For future employees and entrepreneurs.
Its purpose was simple.
If Sterling ever faced another crisis, the people who depended on the company would have protection.
Workers.
Small-business partners.
Families.
Clara funded the trust with part of the wealth her father had left her.
Marcus reviewed the final documents.
“This is permanent.”
“I know.”
“You can't take it back.”
“I don't want to.”
He looked at her.
“Your father would be proud.”
Clara smiled.
“Maybe.”
Then she signed.
The pen touched the paper.
For years, she had spent money protecting what belonged to her.
Now she was using it to protect people who didn't belong to her at all.
That was the final lesson.
Money could create control.
Or it could create possibility.

She chose possibility.
