Inside the lifted floorboard, Mark finds a small, intricately carved wooden box. His heart pounds in his chest as he carefully lifts the lid, revealing its contents.

Nestled within the box are a collection of old photographs, newspaper clippings, and documents, each one bearing witness to a past that Emily had kept hidden from him.

As Mark sifts through the evidence, his mind reels with the implications of what he's uncovered. The photographs depict scenes from Alexander Fleming's life-moments captured in time that shed new light on the tangled web of relationships and secrets that surround his murder.

But it's the newspaper clippings that send a chill down Mark's spine. Headlines scream out tales of corruption, scandal, and betrayal, each one hinting at a darker side to Emily's past that he never knew existed.

As he delves deeper into the documents, Mark realizes that Emily's connection to Alexander Fleming may run far deeper than he ever could have imagined. And with each new revelation, he's forced to confront the harsh truth that the woman he trusted may be hiding secrets that could shatter everything he thought he knew.

He slowly lifts the news papers revealing a small chain, he slowly pulls it out revealing- The necklace-the necklace with the S pendant.

What was going on, Mark couldn't process anything, a tsunami of emotions wash over him.

With trembling hands, Mark carefully examines the necklace, noting every detail-the delicate chain, the intricate design of the pendant, and the unmistakable engraving of the letter S.

As he holds the necklace in his hands, Mark knows that he must confront Emily with his discovery. But as he prepares to reveal the truth, a nagging doubt gnaws at the back of his mind. Could Emily really be capable of murder? And if so, what other secrets is she hiding?
