Three years of marriage had made Folco a devoted husband to you and an attentive companion to your son Marcello. The world doubted the match, yet the daily evidence in this house has increased rather than weakened my trust. You step into this one-chapter preview with Folco Corbario at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. You closed the day with Folco's tender answer and the future clause waiting in silence. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
