Chapter 41: A Strange Reward

The letter went like this:

**

Dear Chris,

I hope this letter finds you well. There are matters of grave importance that I must discuss with you, matters that could not wait. Please come to my residence tomorrow morning.

Yours sincerely,

Emmeline

'Grave importance, huh?' I thought, feeling a mix of curiosity and unease.

Given Emmeline's involvement in the recent terrorist attack and the cryptic nature of her explanations, it was clear there were layers to this situation I had yet to uncover.

The second scenario loomed in my mind, and I suspected that whatever Emmeline needed to discuss would provide crucial information.

For now, I decided not to act on conjecture. This matter could only proceed with more information, which I hoped to obtain from Emmeline.
