The Madam's Orders
When Marcelo and the Old Master arrived at the entrance of Dante's ward, they were met by two stern-looking bodyguards who stood at the door, arms crossed. The Old Master approached them with a confident stride, but as he tried to enter, one of the guards blocked his path with a firm hand.
"I'm sorry, chairman," the bodyguard said, "the madam instructed us not to let anyone inside except Marcelo."
