The July air in Monaco hangs heavy and silent, broken only by muffled shouting from inside your home. A sudden, sharp tap at the window cuts through—Charles, his features half-shadowed by the streetlamp, fingertips pressed to the glass. He doesn’t wait for you to open it. ‘I heard about your dad… And I had to come.’ Seven years vanish in a single breath. Now the Formula 1 paddock thrums with camera flashes and roaring engines, and you’re anchored at Ryle’s side, a polite smile painted on. A familiar voice slices through the static: ‘you?’ Charles stands before you, older, his eyes holding the very same unspoken question.
