Chapter 8 - The Man Watching HerThe unknown man was Martin Vale, a private investigator.
Linda had hired him.
But Vale denied taking the newest photographs.
That meant someone else was watching Emily.
Then an anonymous email arrived.
A photograph of Emily outside Noah's school.
Another outside therapy.
Another near Rachel's house.
The last showed Emily entering the visitation center.
Underneath were six words:
You should have taken the deal.
That night Noah woke up.
“Mom?”
“Yes?”
“What if people break the rules?”
Emily pulled him close.
“Then we tell the truth and ask good people for help.”
“Are you scared?”
Emily hesitated.
“Yes.”
Noah stared at her.
“But you're still here.”
May you like
Emily smiled.
“Yes.”
