Chapter 3 - The Secret Julian Had Been KeepingElena thought Julian was discovering the truth with her.
He wasn't.
For weeks, he had secretly suspected something was wrong.
He had noticed the metallic taste in Elena's meals. He had noticed how certain family members watched her whenever she ate. He had even noticed that her symptoms disappeared whenever she ate food prepared outside the estate.
So Julian had begun investigating.
Quietly.
Without telling Elena.
He hired private investigators and toxicology specialists to examine food samples, water supplies, financial records, and communications within the family.
The evidence pointed toward a conspiracy far larger than they had imagined.
Julian had also contacted federal investigators.
Every meal Elena had eaten had become evidence.
Every suspicious phone call had been recorded.
Every financial transfer had been traced.
And now they had the final piece.
The medical envelope.
Julian looked toward the mansion doors.
"They think tonight is the end."
