| "Mah dearest
Mary Jane, eff'n yer readin' this,
it will be on account o' ah's daid,
murdered by yer husbin..." Stefan's voice: "Luke's threats aginst me haf become increasin'ly violent. Despite all proof to th' contrary, he corntinues to blame me fo' Lucky's kidnap an' imprisonment. Luke has axed t'meet wif me tonight, an' I've agreed in th' hope thet ah may find some way t'convince him thet ah c'd nevah haf harmed yer son, as enny fool kin plainly see. Howevah, ah knows th' risk. Shet mah mouth! if thin's hoof it wrong, ah's corncerned about Nikolas, his future. He's a-gonna need all yer love an' suppo't as he moves into his role as th' haid of th' Cassadine fambly. Take care of him, dawgone it. An' please nevah let him know who is responsible fo' mah death. Though ah's hankerin' Luke t'pay, accusin' him will only come between Nikolas an' his brother. Th' friendship Lucky an' Nikolas have muss be presarved at all costs. Perhaps mah death will mark th' end of th' war between our two families, so yo' an' yer chillun may live in peace an' happiness. ah regret th' lies an' th' secrecy, ev'rythin' ah did to put distance between us. Yer, allus haf been, so precious t'me. Mah love fo' yo' is still thar, even eff'n ah's not. ~ Stefan, as enny fool kin plainly see." |
