Chapter 5: Emily’s Forgotten Past
Chapter 5: Emily’s Forgotten Past
Emily finally told me the truth.
Years ago, before becoming a nanny…
She worked as a nurse.
At the same hospital where Victoria’s first child was born.
My wife’s first pregnancy.
The baby who died.
Victoria had never spoken about it.
Not once.
Emily looked down.
“She blamed everyone.”
“The doctors.”
“The nurses.”
“Even herself.”
“But after that day, she became obsessed with having the perfect family.”
I understood.
Victoria wasn't protecting her children.
She was trying to control every piece of her life.
But Emily wasn't finished.
“There is something else.”
“What?”
Emily hesitated.
“She believes your twins are in danger.”
I looked at my children.
“What are you talking about?”
Emily whispered:
“She thinks someone is trying to take them away.”
And suddenly…
I remembered something strange.
The missing documents.
The secret meetings.
The locked office.
May you like
Victoria wasn't just hiding cruelty.
She was hiding fear.
