My Husband’s Twin Brother Is Back For Revenge Chapter Thirty Six
OLIVIAThe letter arrived on a Tuesday.I was at the kitchen table, going through emails for the Eden campaign, when the doorman called up to say there was something for me. Not a package, he said. A letter. Hand-delivered, no return address, but the envelope looked personal.I felt the familiar prickle of fear. Hand-delivered. No return address. Those were the same words that had accompanied the box with the photograph, the one with See you soon written on the back."Send it up," I said.Webb brought it to me. He'd checked it for explosives, for powders, for anything suspicious. It was clean. Just a plain white envelope with my name written in careful handwriting I didn't recognize.I opened it slowly.Inside was a photograph. Black and white, old and creased, the kind of picture that had been passed down through generations. It showed a woman standing in front of a house, her face partially obscured by the shadow of a wide-brimmed hat. Beside her was a man in a suit, tall and thin,

OLIVIAThe days after Cross's death passed in a blur of phone calls and dead ends.Callahan called every morning with an update. The investigation into Cross's murder was ongoing, but there was little to go on. The motel had no security cameras, the room had been wiped clean, and the only witness was a night clerk who hadn't seen anything. Marcus had vanished again, and this time he'd left a body behind.I tried to focus on work, but the Eden campaign felt like a distant concern. I went through the motions, answering emails, joining conference calls, revising copy that didn't matter. Nigel noticed. He called me twice to check in, his voice careful, his questions gentle. I told him I was fine. He didn't believe me, but he didn't push.Ethan spent most of his time on the phone with Richard, with Webb, with a private investigator who had been tracking Marcus's movements for weeks. The investigator had a theory. Marcus wasn't just running. He was planning something. Something big."What k

ETHANThe call with Callahan happened at nine the next morning.I sat at the kitchen table with Olivia beside me, her hand wrapped around a cup of tea she wasn't drinking, her eyes fixed on the phone between us. Callahan's voice came through the speaker, tinny and tired."I'll be honest with you both," he said. "We're stretched thin on this one. Marcus has no known associates left, no financial trail, no digital footprint. He's been off the grid since the day he checked out of that motel. Either he's gotten smarter, or someone's helping him.""Someone like who?" I asked."We don't know. Could be an old friend, could be someone he met inside. We're running down every name we've got, but it's slow going."Olivia leaned forward. "What can we do to help?"Callahan hesitated. "Honestly? Nothing. The best thing you can do is stay where you are and let us handle it.""That's not acceptable."I looked at her. There was something different in her voice, something I hadn't heard in weeks. It wa

OLIVIAThree days passed, and Marcus was still out there.I counted the hours by the small rituals that kept me sane. Waking up. Feeding Grace. Checking my phone for updates that never came. The penthouse had become a cage again, and I moved through it like a ghost, touching the same surfaces, walking the same paths, waiting for news that would change everything.Callahan called every afternoon with the same report. No sightings. No activity on Marcus's known accounts. No contact with anyone from his old life. He had vanished, and the not knowing was worse than anything he could have done to me.I thought about him constantly. Not the way I used to, not with the raw terror that had defined the first weeks after his release. This was different. This was a low, constant hum of dread that sat in my chest and never went away. I imagined him watching us from a distance, taking notes, planning his next move. I imagined him finding a way to get to Grace. I imagined the phone ringing and his

OLIVIAThe news about Julian Thorne broke on a Thursday morning, and by Friday afternoon, it had already started to unravel.I was at the kitchen table with my laptop open, a cup of coffee going cold beside me, when the first headline appeared. Tech Mogul Arrested in Fraud Sweep. I clicked on it and read through the article twice, my heart pounding harder with each paragraph. Thorne had been taken into custody at his Manhattan penthouse. The FBI had seized computers, documents, financial records. He was being held without bail pending trial.I called Ethan immediately."Did you see it?" I asked."I saw it." His voice was calm, but I could hear the tension underneath. "Richard just called. He says the evidence is solid. Thorne isn't going anywhere.""And Marcus?"There was a pause on the other end of the line. "No word yet. But without Thorne's money, he's got nothing. It's only a matter of time."I wanted to believe him. I wanted to feel the relief that everyone seemed to expect me to

OLIVIAWe drove back to the city the next morning.I sat in the back seat with Grace in my lap, watching the trees give way to highways and the highways give way to the skyline. Ethan sat beside me, his hand resting on my knee, his thumb tracing slow circles against the fabric of my jeans. Neither of us said much. There wasn't much left to say.The penthouse felt different when we walked through the door. Brighter, maybe. Lighter. The security team was still there, still watching, but the weight that had been pressing down on everything for weeks seemed to have lifted, just a little.I put Grace down for her nap and then stood in the kitchen making tea, my hands moving on autopilot. Ethan was on the phone with Richard, going over the final details of the handoff. The FBI had agreed to take the case. They were sending a team to pick up the documents that afternoon."We're going to need to make a statement," Ethan said, walking into the kitchen after he hung up. "At some point. The pres
