I took the USB drive to Maria’s lab.
It wasn’t large.
Just two workrooms and an office.
A photograph of my mother and Maria in their youth sat on a
cabinet.
I stood in front of it for a long time.
Maria handed me a white lab coat.

“Your mother used to say you were a lot like her.”
“In what way?”
“You don’t sweat the small stuff. But once someone crosses your line, there’s no talking you down.”
I put on the lab coat.
The files for the two unreleased formulas were all on the USB
drive.
Ingredient ratios. Stability records. Test results.
Everything. 2/5

This was the work my mother had spent decades building.
It was not something Marco could recreate in two years with three million dollars.
Maria finished reviewing the first data set and let her hand rest on
the mouse.
“Dr. Rhodes left her best work for you.”
“Can it be used?”
“Yes.”

“But the original experiments were done in a research institute. To turn these into production-scale formulas, they’ll have to be re-validated.”
“How long will that take?”
“Three months, at the earliest.”
Three months.
The company had one.
I said nothing.

Maria saw right through me.
“Astrid, you still have the original two formulas, don’t you?”
