Chapter 5 - Emma Pointed at Karen and Started Screaming—Then We Found What the Nanny Had Been Hiding in Her RoomKaren's room was searched immediately.
We found baby medication.
Sedatives.
A syringe.
And photographs.
Hundreds of them.
Emma sleeping.
Emma crying.
Emma alone.
I felt sick.
Adrian looked at the photographs.
His face became terrifying.
“Why?”
Karen cried.
“I didn't want to hurt her.”
“Then why?”
“She was supposed to disappear.”
“Who told you?”
Karen looked at me.
“Rachel.”
Dante searched deeper.
Then he found a hidden box.
Inside was a photograph of Adrian holding a newborn Emma.
On the back was a date.
The day Emma was born.
And beneath it:
THE HEIR MUST NEVER REACH HER FIRST BIRTHDAY.
Adrian stared.
“Who wrote this?”
Karen whispered,
“Your father.”
Adrian froze.
His father had died six years earlier.

But the handwriting was unmistakable.
Someone had planned Emma's death before she was even born.
