Ella POV You look exhausted , my mother said as I walked down to breakfast .
I didnt sleep well , I replied weakly , glancing around the table .
I was later than I realized .
After finding Davids letter , I couldnt sleep .
My mind had been spinning , trying to figure out how he had managed to get the letter into the house .
It seemed impossible , yet I couldnt shake the feeling that there was a traitor helping him .
I had to find out who .
It was a stark reminder of how much work I had left to do .
By the time I had finally drifted off , it was well past midnight , and I had slept through my alarms .
Most of the family had already finished breakfast , leaving just my parents at the table .
Is everything alright ? my father asked , his concern obvigas .
No , I answered honestly , sitting down beside him and reaching for a piece of toast with jam .

What letter ? my mother asked , her voice tight with worry +25 BONUS Chapter 0090 I froze , dropping the toast , my eyes going wide as I stared her .
My heart began to race , a wave of fear gripping me .
My reaction must have startled them because my father shot up from his chair and quickly walked around to my side .
Ella ? he asked , kneeling in front of me , his hand lightly gripping my arm .
What in the world is going on ? You look like youve seen a ghost .
If you and Mother didnt have the letter brought up to my room , then how did it get there ? I asked , my voice shaky .
What letter ? my mother asked again , fear clear in her tone .
A letter from David , I managed , struggling to control my emotions .
There was a letter from David sitting on my desk .
My father stood up abruptly and hurried out of the room .
My mother moved closer , sitting beside me .
She took both of my hands in hers , looking into my eyes with a seriousness that sent a chill down my spine .
Are you sure , Ella ? How could I be wrong about this ? It was sitting on my desk when I got home last night .
I assumed that you put it there .
We didnt know you got any mail , she replied , her voice tense .
A flicker of anger crossed my mothers face an intensity I had never seen before .
Were going to find out whos behind this , she declared .
