Tina believed she’d found her happily ever after when she married her high school sweetheart, Richard. At 18, she eloped with him, despite her dream of a traditional wedding. However, shortly after, Tina became pregnant, and Richard’s true colors emerged. He kicked her out, and when she sought help from his parents, they cruelly accused her of infidelity and cut her off completely. Realizing she was on her own, Tina devoted herself to raising her son, Greg, with all her strength.
Greg grew up aware of his father’s abandonment and supported his mother, eventually becoming a successful businessman. Despite his accomplishments, Greg harbored a deep resentment toward Richard. One day, he tracked down Richard, only to find him frail and struggling. Realizing revenge wasn’t worth it, Greg instead bought Richard’s house, which was being repossessed due to debt.
When Richard arrived at the property agent’s office to finalize the sale, he was stunned to see Tina and Greg there. Greg revealed who he was, ordering Richard to vacate with the same words Richard had used years before: “If I see you again, we’ll have a problem.” Tina watched Richard leave, reflecting on the irony of the moment.
Animal Bones Started Appearing on My Doorstep — I Set Up a Security Camera to Find Out What It Meant
What a thrilling and suspenseful story! The gradual buildup of tension with the animal bones and the eerie atmosphere of the new house really draws the reader in. It captures that sense of unease perfectly, especially with the children’s reactions and the strange behavior of the neighbors. The twist with Hilton’s obsession and the discovery of the hidden treasure adds a fascinating layer to the narrative.
I love how it concludes with a sense of relief and closure, especially when the mysterious scratching turns out to be a friendly cat rather than something sinister. It really shifts the perspective from fear to comfort, making the house feel like a home after all.
