The first time I noticed my husband adding something unfamiliar to my evening drink, I convinced myself there was a perfectly reasonable explanation.
The second time, I began questioning everything I thought I knew about our marriage.
But when I overheard him whispering, “We’re running out of time. She can’t discover what happened to the others,” I realized that the man I trusted most had been keeping a secret I was never supposed to uncover.
My name is Margaret Bennett. I’m sixty-four years old, a retired elementary schoolteacher, and six months ago, I married a thirty-one-year-old millionaire named Daniel.
Almost everyone questioned our relationship.
My younger sister, Helen, was particularly worried.
“Margaret, he’s thirty-one, wealthy, and successful. Why would he want to marry someone twice his age?”
“Perhaps because he loves me,” I answered.
I desperately wanted that to be true.
Daniel was handsome, charming, and the owner of a successful medical technology investment company. He lived in a magnificent mansion and seemed capable of purchasing anything he wanted.
I’d spent thirty-eight years teaching elementary school and lived comfortably on my retirement savings.
Our lives couldn’t have been more different.
Whenever I questioned why he’d chosen me, Daniel smiled.
“Because you’re the only person who makes me feel completely at peace.”
He remembered everything about me.
My favorite flowers, my mother’s recipes, and the books I’d loved as a little girl.
Our wedding was beautiful, and the first months of marriage felt almost magical.
