Chapter 5: The Apology Nobody Expected
Esteban gathered every employee in the mansion.
Rosa stood quietly in the corner.
She expected nothing.
She had learned not to expect kindness from powerful people.

āRosa.ā
Everyone looked surprised.
āI owe you an apology.ā
Rosa looked up.
āFor years, you protected my home.ā
āYou cared for my family.ā
āAnd we allowed someone to treat you like you were nothing.ā
His voice became emotional.
āI failed you.ā
Nobody in the mansion had ever seen Esteban apologize before.
Then he made an offer.
āI want you to stay.ā
Rosa looked surprised.
āBut not as a maid.ā
āI want you to become the manager of this entire property.ā
The employees gasped.
Rosa looked at Mateo, who had arrived with a neighbor.
Her son smiled.
