Privacy
How much of yourself you reveal to the people already in your life. Controls what you share, how deep you go, and what stays yours.
Lowry Simms and the Journalist's Request
Privacy settings were carefully calibrated as Lowry Simms controlled exactly how much of herself she revealed to this unknown journalist. She started with complete silence, then shared only a single word, gradually opening up as trust was established through Bentley's vouching. Even when she finally agreed to talk, she maintained firm boundaries about which topics were off-limits, protecting sensitive information about the painting's disposal.
