[image error] This makes my 7th day of writing, and I have managed another 2,500 words, bringing the total to 25,401.

‘With all his money, he can afford a good solicitor. Anyway, he won’t be stupid enough to come near you again.’
‘You reckon?’

Emma groaned.
John leaned over her. ‘What? What is it? Are you gonna throw up again?’
‘I know what he’ll say. I’m a slut. I led him on. You know the drill, John. All he has to do is slander me. Drag up my past. Like you say, with his money … a solicitor and a private investigator.’
John released her hand and stood.
Bewildered, Emma looked up at him.
‘I’m off to speak to the others,’ he said.
‘The other women?’
John nodded. ‘Yeah. If we can prove you weren’t his only victim …’
