CHAPTER 3: THE SECRET FROM THREE YEARS AGO
CHAPTER 3: THE SECRET FROM THREE YEARS AGO
The next morning, Daniel arrived early.
Claire was already waiting.
Neither of them smiled.
"I need answers," Daniel said.
"So do I."
They sat down.
Claire took a deep breath.
"I don't remember anything before three years ago."
Daniel stared.
"What?"
"I woke up in a hospital after a car accident."
"Three years ago?"
Claire nodded.
The exact year Emma had died.
"My memory was gone. The doctors couldn't identify me."
Daniel felt cold.
"No family?"
"No one came."
Claire handed him a folder.
Hospital records.
Medical reports.
Photos.
Then one page caught his eye.
A photograph of the wrecked car.
Daniel's blood froze.
He knew that car.
Because it was Emma's.
"This can't be real."
Claire leaned forward.
"There's more."
She opened a small necklace hanging around her neck.
Inside was a tiny folded piece of paper.
She had never opened it.
Her hands trembled.
Together, they unfolded it.
One sentence was written inside:
If anything happens to me, don't let Daniel know I'm alive.
The note was signed...
May you like
Emma.
