Même si je dois partir dans un mois et ne pouvoir contacter personne pendant cinq ans, cela ne me dérange pas. » Un mois plus tard, le mariage que j'attendais depuis si longtemps aurait lieu.

J'ai présidé une réunion importante internationale lorsque ma sœur m'a soudain appelée. Au téléphone, elle pleurait à chaudes larmes, « Léa, on m'a pris ma place d'échange… » Je suis aussitôt arrivée à l'école et j'ai vu ma sœur coincée dans un coin du bureau, les yeux rougis.

Mon père vient de faire don d'un bâtiment de laboratoire à notre école ! Et toi, tu n'es rien du tout ! » Même le professeur de spécialité à côté l'a soutenue : « Claire Laurent, Julie est la fille d'un de nos plus grands bienfaiteurs. Sois raisonnable, ne crée pas de problèmes pour tout le monde. » J'étais sur le point d'intervenir, mais ces mots « la fille de la famille des Dubois » m'ont arrêtée net.

J'ai immédiatement composé le numéro de mon père et j'ai parlé avec un sourire glacé : « Papa, depuis quand as-tu eu une autre fille en cachette, derrière le dos de maman ? »
