'Eve,
I hope you get this before it's too late. You need to run Eve, away from wherever you are and you must not stop running until I find you. I'm alive, Eve, I'm okay. I wish I could've told you, stopped you from feeling the way you do right now, but I couldn't risk you being in even more danger. You needed me to be dead almost as much as they did.
They won't find out for a while yet, but I cannot take any chances with you, I need you to stay alive, otherwise what it this point to this mind-numbingly boring existence? I miss you. I haven't even left you yet, you're asleep in the room next door, but I miss you. I know I will be missing you more than I could ever imagine. So stay alive for me.
Along with this letter you will find a debit card with £50,000 deposited on it. I need you to use only this card until I find you. If you need the card topping up call this number and ask for 'Valerie Sinclair to meet you for high tea at noon', they will deposit a further £50,000.
You're a smart woman, Eve, so I know you will have no trouble in following this intricate little treasure hunt I have made for you. Don't laugh, I've been working on this for a while. I know only you will understand the clues I leave. The first one waits for you in Paris, my old apartment. Well, not the apartment so much as the letter box. Find a way into it, there's a fake back to it, behind you will find instructions on where the next clue lies. I know this sounds ridiculous and over the top but who am I if not those two things? Anyway, I can't just write down my address, what if someone steals this letter, or worse, what if you're killed and they pull this letter from your corpse? I can't run that risk Eve, I will not lose you.
You are the reason I am doing this Eve, once this is over, we will start a new life together, I'll make you breakfast, we'll go shopping together, whatever we want to do, but first you must do this Eve, it's the only safe way I can think of. Plus, if I'm being honest, it was quite fun to plan, a welcome distraction from the normality of my life.
Watch your back like a hawk Eve, others already are. Find me soon, I miss you. Yours, V. X '
Eve read the letter again, and again... and again. Then, saying nothing, she put on her coat and went for a walk. Pam followed slowly behind her.
End of Chapter Three.
