The Trap In The Bathroom / Chapter 30 / 50

Chapter 30 - The Missing FaceMark spent the entire night analyzing old photographs.

Eventually, he found the same shadow.

At weddings.

Funerals.

Company events.

Hospital visits.

Always nearby.

Never identified.

Then Rebecca recognized something.

“The silver watch.”

Mark looked at the photographs.

The man always wore one.

Ethan whispered:

“That's impossible.”

Mark asked:

“What?”

Ethan pointed.

“That watch belonged to Dad.”

The family realized the terrifying truth.

Someone had been impersonating their father for years.

Then Mark's phone rang.

A distorted voice spoke.

“You finally figured it out.”

Mark froze.

“Who are you?”

The voice laughed.

“You've been asking the wrong question.”

“What question?”

“Not who killed Clara.”

A pause.

“Who wanted Clara dead?”

Mark's face tightened.

The voice continued.

“And Mark…”

“Yes?”

“You have forty-eight hours.”

“For what?”

May you like

“To decide which member of your family dies next.”

The call ended.
