Isadora wandered through the shopping mall, reflecting on the challenging months that had passed since the birthday celebration. Mrs. Adriana's constant interference had made her life difficult, assigning her tasks beyond her capabilities and burdening her with menial chores like cleaning, mopping, sweeping, and cooking. With no choice but to obey, Isadora felt overwhelmed.
Meanwhile, Maxwell's constant travels had kept him away, offering no respite or support. Antonio's absence also added to her isolation, as he would vanish immediately after his shift to tend to mysterious matters, particularly those involving the Calandro crew. Isadora felt like she was carrying the weight of the world alone, with no one to share her burdens.
