But one detail caught my attention.
Laura had been a research coordinator at a medical technology company before leaving her position shortly before her engagement ended.
The company shared a business address with one of Daniel’s early investment ventures.
I felt the room tilt around me.
This wasn’t proof that Laura had been harmed, but the connection was too significant to ignore.
I called Helen back.
“I’m going to find her.”
“Margaret, please be careful.”
“I will. But I need answers.”
Before I could end the call, another message appeared on my phone.
It was from an unknown number.
If you want to know what your husband did before he met you, visit the old Lakeshore Research Center at three this afternoon. Come alone.
Below the message was a photograph of a woman standing beside a window.
I recognized her from Helen’s report.
Laura Mitchell.
I immediately called the number, but it went straight to voicemail.
