Chapter 18 - The Little BoxWhile investigators photographed the room...

One young officer found a tiny wooden box hidden beneath loose floorboards.

Inside...

Hundreds of folded notes.

I recognized my own handwriting.

Letters.

I'd written them over five years.

Letters to myself.

Whenever Oliver apologized.

Whenever I believed things would change.

I had hidden them.

Then forgotten.

The final letter simply read:

Emma,

If you ever find this...

leave.

May you like

He won't change.

I burst into tears.
