Chapter 6 - The Bank Called Me About a Second Account—And I Discovered My Husband Had Been Preparing to DisappearThree days later, the bank called.
They had found another account.
It was connected to David.
The transactions were disturbing.
He had been transferring money into an account under another name.
Then I discovered airline tickets.
One-way tickets.
Two people.
A destination outside the United States.
David had been planning to leave.
With Evelyn.
I stared at the documents.
I couldn't believe it.
He wasn't just planning to steal the house.
He had planned to disappear after the sale.
Daniel immediately contacted the authorities.
David was questioned.
He admitted the tickets existed.
But he insisted he had never planned to leave permanently.
I didn't believe him.
Not anymore.
Then Marcus, the burglar, made another statement.
He told investigators that David had promised him $20,000.
He also revealed something else.
The burglary was supposed to happen three days earlier.
It had been delayed because Evelyn had become nervous.
That delay was the reason Chloe and I had been at the mall.
If she hadn't seen Evelyn that day, the burglary might have happened while we were home.

I couldn't stop thinking about that.
My daughter had saved us.
