Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock would remain completely still for several seconds, reading the treaty over and over. He would show neither anger nor exaggerated surprise; only a slight frown and a colder expression than usual. Before accepting reality, he would examine the paper, the ink, the wax seal, the handwriting, and the date, searching for any hint of forgery. Upon confirming its authenticity, he would feel a profound disappointment, not at the marriage itself, but that his father had concealed from him a decision that had shaped his life before he was even capable of choosing for himself. Questions, rather than emotions, would begin to form in his mind: Why keep the treaty secret? What were the Holmes and de Beaumont families truly protecting? What was so valuable as to justify an arranged marriage? Although outwardly he would remain calm and almost expressionless, inwardly he would experience an uneasy feeling of having been merely a pawn in a plan devised many years before he could intervene. Instead of immediately thinking about the young woman he was supposed to marry, Sherlock would become obsessed with discovering the true motive behind the treaty, convinced that a man as meticulous as his father would never have made such a decision solely for tradition or social convenience.

Mycroft would be the first to break the silence. At first, he would think it was a joke or an invalid document, but upon seeing his father's signature and the official seal, his expression would harden. More than indignant about the marriage, he would be troubled that a treaty of such importance had remained hidden for so many years, for it meant that part of the Holmes family's inheritance and honor depended on an agreement they had never known about. He would begin pacing the room, mentally reviewing the legal, economic, and social implications of the document. His rational side would tell him that a treaty signed between two noble families could not be ignored lightly, while his pride would be wounded to discover that his own father had never trusted him enough to reveal such a secret. He might even wonder which of the two brothers was originally destined to fulfill the agreement. Although he would try to maintain his composure, the mere fact of not being in control of the situation would deeply frustrate him. That is why I would insist on locating Beaumont's family as soon as possible, not out of romanticism, but because I would consider that ignoring the treaty could trigger a scandal or a dispute between two respected lineages.

Enola would read the treaty from beginning to end, frowning. When she finished, she would let out a short, incredulous laugh before slamming the document shut. It would seem absurd to her that a person's fate could be decided by a few signatures made seventeen years earlier. She would look first at Sherlock and then at Mycroft, unable to understand why they both seemed more concerned about the treaty's authenticity than the lack of freedom it represented. Although she would acknowledge the document's enormous historical and legal weight, she would refuse to accept that anyone could be bound by the wishes of a deceased man. However, her curiosity would eventually overcome her indignation. If her mother had hidden that treaty for so many years, there must be a reason. Did she want to protect her children? Or the mysterious young French woman? Convinced that the truth was never as simple as it seemed, Enola would decide to investigate on her own. And, before leaving the room, he would cast one last look at his brothers and say with a mixture of irony and determination: "I hope neither of you thinks of getting married just because a piece of paper orders you to. Because I intend to find out why Mother went to such lengths to hide it."
