Chương 26 - The Estate Became A Different Home

After the wedding, Teresa refused to stop working.
She continued running the foundation.
She also transformed part of the estate into a training center.
Domestic workers could attend free classes.
Financial literacy.
Legal rights.
Workplace safety.
Emergency planning.
The old marble foyer became part of the program.
The column remained.
Teresa refused to remove it.
David asked why.
“Because?”
“Because I don't want to erase what happened.”
He looked at her.
“You don't have to remember it every day.”
“I don't.”
She touched the column.
“I just don't want someone else to believe people like us can't change what happens next.”
David smiled.
The column was no longer a symbol of fear.
It was a reminder.
Not of Vanessa.
