It looks as though what you have is a Clipping Group, with live type as the Clipping mask and live type as the contents.

Select the Clipping Group with the Selection Tool (as you have done:

then either go to Object > Clipping Mask > edit Contents

or in the Properties Panel or the Control Panel

select the Edit Contents button. Then choose the Type Tool, select the test you want to change, and edit away.

Thank you very much. It's solved.

I don't know why my mind was not going for the clipping mask.

You're welcome. I don't know that it's what was happening indoor case here, but I keep finding old files where I can't untangle how I made something. I save a lot more intermediate files these days. A frightening thing, being human.
