Summary
During the conclave Bellini had not been particularly warm to him and as Secretary of State he was downright cold. Of course his work was flawless. He forgot nothing. He seemed to never sleep.

Summary
On his phone were the old articles Sabbadin had sent him, naming him a “favorite candidate” and “frontrunning papabile.” Aldo could not deny the mingled pleasure and anxiety the articles had brought him in the days before the conclave. Now he saw how ridiculous he had been, to enjoy the tawdry feeling of popularity, simply because he had never felt popular before in his life.
There had been such confidence in him. He knew he was unworthy of it at the time. He had not known how much.
