After my wife Elizabeth died in a car accident, I felt like my world ended. At her funeral, a frail old woman approached me and whispered, “Her death was no accident. Tomorrow, the truth will begin to unravel.” I wanted to dismiss her words, but the unease in my chest wouldn’t let me.
That night, unable to sleep, I went through Elizabeth’s belongings and found receipts for a rental car. Confused, I called her best friend Sarah, who told me Elizabeth had rented it while both our cars were being repaired. But the next day, the rental company revealed something chilling: the car had been returned by Elizabeth’s sister, Karen.
I went to the police, and within days, they uncovered the horrifying truth — the rental’s brakes had been tampered with. Further digging revealed Karen had forged Elizabeth’s signature on a life insurance policy, making herself the sole beneficiary. She had staged the “accident” for money.
Karen was arrested and sentenced to life in prison. Justice was served, but my heart remained heavy. Weeks later, as I stood at Elizabeth’s grave, a butterfly landed on her headstone. I whispered, “You can rest now.” The fortuneteller was right — Elizabeth’s spirit couldn’t rest until the truth was revealed.
