The next morning, Emma responds to Vanessa’s text asking her to meet that evening. While practicing what she will say, Vanessa gets a call from the shelter she has donated to since Maggie’s death. Maggie had founded it, and Vanessa had wanted to do something in honor of her. After she married Richard, they increased the donation and funded the shelter’s renovation. Andy, from the shelter, tells her that Richard has communicated to them that the donations will now stop. Vanessa recognizes this as a punishment from Richard and feels terrible for failing Maggie.
Then, Andy tells her that Richard called the family himself to apologize and that they have been sending grateful emails to Vanessa and Richard for years. Vanessa realizes that not only has Richard been keeping the notes from her, but he has also been intentionally hiding that Maggie’s brother is not after her. In fact, he is happily married with kids and has been eager to thank Vanessa for her generosity. The realization horrifies Vanessa, as she comprehends that Richard has used her fear as a weapon. Vanessa asks Andy for Maggie’s family’s numbers and then hangs up.
Vanessa takes a cab to Emma’s, terrified that Richard will intercept her.
