Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 364 The Threatening Letter

Seeing what was inside that package freaked Stellan out big time. The first thing that hit her when she opened it was a blood-stained photo of Alaric, slashed up by someone with a knife.

In the pic, Alaric was rocking a military uniform, looking all young and fresh-faced. Given when he retired, this photo had to be at least eight years old.

Stellan had never laid eyes on this photo before. She tried to keep it together and pulled out the bloody pic. Underneath was a piece of paper with some printed text.

[If you don't want Alaric to bite the dust, make him drop the investigation right now. You can call the cops, but that'll just get your family wrecked again.]

[The dead are gone, but the living keep going. Why not appreciate the life you got now? The three kids are still young, and Alaric's body can't take any more hits. Is it worth risking your whole family's lives for the truth?] [I hope you listen. If the retrial application was not withdrawn in three days, it will cost you a life of your family of five.]

Reading this made Stellan's blood run cold. She quickly glanced out the floor-to-ceiling window, suddenly feeling like someone was watching her.

She yanked the curtains shut, still feeling freaked out. Looking at Alaric's photo again, she wondered how the hell the sender got a pic she'd never seen.

Plus, hardly anyone knew about Alaric's request for a case review, yet this person knew everything.

Seven years ago, the Storm family went bankrupt, and Brennan fell to his death. If there was really something shady behind it, the sender had serious power, and she had no clue who was lurking in the shadows. Alaric's body really couldn't take any more hits. The kids were still so young. She couldn't be selfish and risk Alaric's and the kids' safety just to dig up the truth about the Storm family.

But if Alaric found out she got a threatening letter, he wouldn't back down. He was never one to be scared off by threats.
