The property has a weight so sacred that it is threatening to take the risk of getting arrested disunity among the living, heavier than justice.
The day they met at Rua São Bernardo à Estrela, the nine representatives of the clan Espírito Santo, the police were rummaging computers at Banco Espirito Santo and an entourage of journalists surrounded the exits of Rua Barata Salgueiro. It was the early afternoon of a early November and a summer of St. Martin peeped through the half-naked autumn trees. The meeting was to be held at 195 Liberty Avenue, but because the prosecutor came thundering at the head office of the bank, the nine members of the Superior Council of the family raced to the old house, headquarter of the group, that faces the Jardim da Estrela.
Out so to escape the clutches of the press that representatives of the five branches of the old banking family chose the pink house with green shutters, which is the headquarters of the Espírito Santo family. All nine sit at table, but only five vote.
Ruled that calm before the great disasters, marked by an indelible trail that unsaid leaves.
