PART 3: I woke up bald on my son’s wedding morning with a note from my future daughter-in-law telling me I finally looked the way an old woman should—only hours before I was supposed to transfer $120 million of our family inheritance to the bride and groom, and by the time the toast began, I was no longer the one about to be humiliated.

Part 3: The Folder That Changed Everything The king did not open the folder immediately. Instead, he looked around the ballroom. The music had stopped.
