Chapter 19
The Woman Who Stayed
Lucy wanted Mae remembered only as a whistleblower. Ruth insisted victims deserved the whole record.
Claire published Mae's authorship with the later warnings, refusing both sainthood and erasure.
Daniel surrendered his firm's files and accepted disbarment proceedings. Nina transferred the raw-feed rights to the survivors she had exposed.
In Mae's final box, Claire found one unopened memory card labeled FOR MY SISTER, AFTER SHE HATES ME.
