Parents Said 'Skip The Graduation Party - You'll Make Us Look Bad' - Then Brother's Startup Lost Its $3.8M Angel Investor
The phone call came on a Wednesday morning while I was reviewing satellite imagery for a classified Department of Defense contract. Mom's name appeared on my screen, and I almost sent it to voicemail. Our conversations these days were brief, transactional—birthdays acknowledged, holidays coordinated, the bare minimum required to maintain the illusion of family.
But something made me answer."Sophie, finally," Mom said, her voice tight with that particular strain of maternal disappointment I'd learned to recognize at age twelve. "I've been trying to reach you for two days.""I've been working. What's wrong?""Nothing's wrong. I'm calling about Tyler's graduation party. Saturday at the country club. We need to discuss the guest list."I set down my stylus, the satellite image forgotten. "What about it?""Well, Tyler's girlfriend Ashley is coming, obviously. And her family. Her father is Richard Hendricks—Hendricks & Associates? The venture capital firm? Very prestigious. Her mother sits on the board of three Fortune 500 companies. These are extremely successful people, Sophie."
