Chapter 24 - THE MYSTERIOUS PACKAGE
On a bright Tuesday morning, a courier delivered a wooden box stamped with an official legal seal to the ranch.
The package came from a prestigious estate law firm based in London, England.
Marcus opened the box inside his home office while Elena played with Alexander in the garden outside.
Inside the wooden box lay an antique silver pocket watch and a sealed letter written on parchment paper.
The letter was addressed to Marcus from the estate of a late British aristocrat who had passed away weeks prior.
"Mr. Montgomery, upon my death, my executors were instructed to reveal a secret kept for thirty years," the letter read.
Marcus’s eyebrows furrowed in deep confusion as he read through the elegant, vintage handwriting.
The letter disclosed that Chloe Vance was not an biological child of the Vance family, but an adopted orphan.
