November 5.I don't feel safe anymore. I think she knows, l think she has found the letter. l feel betrayed and lied to, but what has been done belongs to the past. I'm afraid of what she can do to me, when l see her! I think this is turning into vinegar... I have changed my mind after what what I have learnt. I am sick and old, I have to hurry. Life won't be patient with me anymore. Everything should be done quite soon, but I'm afraid I won't have enough time...

September, 25 Dearest Andrew, I have a secret to tell you. Rose is not your daughter. I am sorry about the brutality of this revelation, but you need to know the truth. For more than 40 years, I have lied to you about her origins. She is the daughter of a man I met on the cruise I did on the Nile, while you were working in Australia. I cannot live with this secret anymore, I know you will disinherit her when you know the truth, that is why I must leave this world now... Forgive me . . . Love, Adele

Liverpool, October 28 I, Mr. Andrew Lenoir, disinherit Rose Lenoir, in favour of English teacher Mr. Molès. If you want to know my motives, find in my study the letter from my late wife, Mrs. Adele Lenoir. I have chosen Mr. Molès as my heir because he is the best English teacher. Thanks to him, my grandson Peter, who lives in France with his father John, has improved his language skills so much that I can finally speak with him. Rose does not know about my decision yet. I will speak to her and to my son tomorrow.

TRAGIC DEATH AT THE LENOIR MANSION

The old and sick Mr. Lenoir is dead. Even if the circumstances of his disparition still remain unclear, we can affirm you that the only thing that is certain, is that his daughter Rose is going to inherit the family fortune, according to what Lenoir had publicly declared years ago. His son, a self-made man, had built his own company abroad and currently lives a luxurious life on his own. This tragic death occurred on the night of a family party held by Lenoir. He had indeed invited his children over to announce them something, a secret that could not be revealed and that he has taken in his grave. The funeral will be held on Sunday at 11:00 in the morning at St. John's Cathedral.
