Not his entire inheritance.
Not his parental rights.
Not his company ownership.

Margaret’s advisory rights ended.
North Shore Family Advisory payments stopped.
Harbor Row refinancing collapsed temporarily.
Eighty employees did not instantly lose jobs.

The project entered restructuring.
A new lender arrived under tougher terms.
Mark had to inject personal equity and sell a vacation property.
Trust collateral was reduced.
Independent oversight increased.
He hated the outcome.
