Chapter 166

“I can let you read the emails we sent to each other. I don’t really know what all happened after you were taken but what you wrote was pretty graphic.”

“I have to go. I promised my son that I would tuck him in tonight. His bedtime is at 9 at the latest. If I leave now I’ll be a little bit early,” Renee said as she turned around to leave.

“Renee, wait,” Kevin said as he stood up and grabbed her arm.

“Kevin, let me go. Go home and forget about me. I obviously chose to stay with the man that tortured me for a reason. Whatever it was must have been good enough for me to build a life with him.”
