Emma stayed beside me.
“Meeting her doesn’t make us a family again,” I said.
“I understand.”
Barry reached into his coat. “I found this with your letters.”
“I understand.”
He handed me an old envelope.
I recognized Frank’s handwriting at once.
The letter admitted that Evelyn had offered him money to leave me.
“You tried to buy my husband away from me.”
“I thought I was protecting him.”
I recognized Frank’s handwriting.
“That’s the excuse Margaret used.”
“I was wrong, Rachel.”
