The words "Letter to Cornelia" were written on the envelope.Cornelia opened it to find a letter from Skyler.
[Dear Cornelia,
Glad to meet you as a friend!
Thanks for giving me the strength to keep on living when I needed it the most.
From now on, I won’t be doing anything stupid. But Zavier Rivera, he's a control freak. He won’t let me go that easily. If I want to get rid of him, I can only go to a place he doesn't know. I know what you’re going to say, that President Hartley could protect me. But depending on others is not a long-term solution.
Growing up, I depended on my family,and then barely survived by relying on Zavier. It was rough.
I don’t want to rely on others anymore. I want to follow my heart, live my life my way.
Life might be tough from here, but it's what I want. Don't worry about me.
Also, Zavier installed a tracker on my phone. He can check my location anytime. So, I can't take it with me. Please remember to keep my phone charged. Try to delay others from finding out I've left, to buy me some extra time.
Don't worry about me running away. I had it planned a year ago. As long as I get out of Riverton tonight, Zavier won’t find me easily.
When I settle down, when Zavier forgets about me, I'll find a way to contact you.
Cornelia, I hope the next time we meet, we will be living our lives the way we want!
