Part 2<\/h2>\n

\u201cAttorney Brenda, it\u2019s me,\u201d I said the moment she picked up the call. \u201cMisty just came here to threaten me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Her professional tone shifted instantly to one of deep concern.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat exactly did she say to you, Cassandra?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cShe said exactly what we were afraid of, so I need to know if you can come over right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am on my way,\u201d she replied firmly, \u201cand you shouldn\u2019t worry because your father thought much further ahead than any of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

After I hung up, I noticed something caught under the leaves of a rosebush. It was a small envelope, damp with the morning dew and covered in my father\u2019s unmistakable handwriting.<\/p>\n

It was addressed directly to me, and I picked it up with trembling hands. I felt as if the paper weighed more than it should, as if it held a final, decisive move in a game I didn\u2019t know we were playing.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Attorney Brenda arrived twenty minutes later carrying her briefcase and a bottle of wine. She had been my father\u2019s legal counsel for decades, but she was also a dear friend who had known me since I was a child.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We locked ourselves in the study, which still smelled of the mild tobacco and old wood that always reminded me of my father. I sat in his large leather armchair while still clutching the unopened envelope in my hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou didn\u2019t want to open that alone, did you?\u201d Brenda asked gently.<\/p>\n

I shook my head because I was terrified of what Misty had hinted about my brother Jesse.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour father left very specific instructions, and some things were meant to be discovered only at the right time.\u201d<\/p>\n

I looked up at her with confusion.<\/p>\n
