Chapter 10 - The Secret Inside The Closet

I searched every inch of my mother’s room.
Not because I wanted money.
Because I wanted answers.
Behind old clothes, I found a locked wooden box.
Inside were letters.
Photos.
And one document.
A document mentioning Gwendolyn.
Years before she entered our family.
She had known about Florence’s assets long before anyone realized.
This was planned.
For years.
Then I found the final letter.
My mother wrote:
“If Gwendolyn ever tries to take my home, the truth is hidden where she would never look.”
I read the sentence again.
Then I heard footsteps behind me.
May you like
Gwendolyn.
