After a moment, I reached for the matching certificate, aligning it with the one Rafael had handed over. The two documents, both key to securing the legacy of the Sinclair brand, were now complete.

• I traced the edges of the award with my fingers, a contemplative look on my face. The engravings felt almost foreign, despite their significance to the Sinclair family’s corporate empire.
