Chapter 16 - A Different Kind of DangerThe foundation received an anonymous donation.
Five million dollars.
No name.
No explanation.
I refused it.
The next morning, another envelope arrived.
Inside was a photograph.
It showed me standing outside the refuge.
Taken from across the road.
On the back were six words:
You were never the real target.
For the first time since the courtroom, fear returned.
But it was different now.
I wasn't alone.
I had lawyers.
Security.
Friends.
Women who trusted me.
And something else.
I had learned not to ignore danger simply because I was tired of being afraid.
I increased security.
I contacted authorities.
And I kept moving.
May you like
Because fear could warn you.
But it could not control you.
