Chapter 15: The Nose
Nobody said anything for a moment.
The lamp hissed.
"The perfumer of the house," I said. "Who is that?"
Julien looked at his grandmother.
So did Solène.
The old woman set the lamp down on the stone floor and folded her hands in her lap.
"Me," she said.
"Not Julien?"
"Julien is the director. He signs the checks and argues with the bank." She sniffed. "The nose of the house is me. Until I die or until I say otherwise. I haven't said otherwise."
Solène scrambled up off the floor with the paper held against her chest.
"Then it's over. Grand-mère, say no. Say it now, write it down, we'll take it to the notary in town this morning, and his whole contract is worth nothing."
Her grandmother didn't move.
"Grand-mère?"
"I haven't decided."
Solène stared at her.
"You haven't decided?"
"No."
"He hit me." Solène's voice cracked straight down the middle. "He hit me in your shop, in front of your girls. You saw the video."
"I saw it."
"Then what is there to decide?"
The old woman looked up at her granddaughter. Her face was very calm.
