Chapter 5: The Hidden Daughter

Chapter 5: The Hidden Daughter

The next morning, Emily discovered another secret.

A letter arrived at her apartment.

Inside was a photograph.

Daniel.

Victoria.

And a young woman she had never seen before.

The letter contained one sentence:

“Ask your husband who Clara is.”

Emily felt her hands shake.

She immediately called Daniel.

“Who is Clara?”

Silence.

Then Daniel whispered:

“Emily…”

“Who is she?”

Before Daniel answered, Victoria grabbed the phone.

“Some things are better left buried.”

Emily’s expression changed.

“You’re protecting another secret?”

Victoria said nothing.

That was enough.
