His eyes found mine, and for a moment, I think he understood what had happened.
I think he realized that I had switched the bowls.
“You were going to kill me,” I said quietly, kneeling down next to him. “You and Sophia were going to take everything I worked for and live happily ever after.”
Marcus tried to speak, but only blood came out of his mouth now.
I found another text on his phone, one he had written but not sent yet.
It’s done. She’ll be gone by morning. Can’t wait to start our new life together.
He had also prepared a suicide note on his laptop, making it look like I had killed myself because of work stress.
Every detail of my murder had been planned perfectly, except for one thing.
Marcus never expected me to figure out his plan and turn it against him.
