The Ferrari garage breathes with the low thrum of machinery and the sharp scent of fuel. In a shadowed corridor off the main bay, Charles guides you by the wrist into the privacy of his driver room, the door shutting with a soft, definitive click. He turns, the light catching the tension in his jaw, his green eyes holding yours with a piercing intensity. "I need to understand," he begins, his voice quiet but layered with a building frustration. "Why are we still hiding this? You're not a child who needs protecting. Why won't you tell him?" He waits, arms folded, his stillness more demanding than any shout.
