For the reasons you just mentioned, I also believe that Jeremy hasnt read the manuscript before. So the choice is . honestly after giving it much thought i do believe the letter is the truth and i do so for so many reasons to start with why the hell would verity fake her injuries if she wasn't truly afraid from jeremy ,afraid that he might try to kill her again for the third time, also if verity was the true villan here why wouldn't she do smth to lowen knowing how obssesed she is with jeremy and allowing a woman in herbed with her husband like comeon it doesn't make sense if she killed her own daughter than she's campable of doing much worse, in addition to that if the manuscript was true and it showed how equally jeremy was obsssesed with verity as much as she was why the hell he will go for another woman if he didn't read the manuscript already and found out how aterrible person his wife is it'sbecause he believed the manuscript, jeremy said at the beginning he doesn't like reading verity's work because how dark her writing was in fact he was afraid to believe what she writes and that's exactly what happendwhen he read themanuscript , to mention the scar on chastin actually i do believe it was because it's common to happen to twins and not because of the faild try of abortion ,colleen played with our minds let us believe that verity was crucial and evil why the truth is that both loawen and jeremy are the true villans lowen was obssesed withe the jeremy that verity wrote about and that's what justifyher actions towards him and jeremy was a psycho himself too cuz he read the manuscript and believed it and wanted to torture verity more by bringing lowen to their house .. and also there's a point most of the people neglected which is the similarity between lowen and her mother's situation and jeremy and verity after the accident low's mother was terrified of her la hated in a way oe another her mom and it's the same for jeremy but despite all the hate that stayed by theirsides and took care of them also if verity as a villan am sure crew will beafraid of her beacuse he witnessed the death of his sister that his mother responsible of by lowen always mentioned how he spand most of his time next to his mom in bed , not to mention that "verity" means the truth so yeah i dobelieve the letter was true and both lowen and jeremy are fucked up.

Here's my evidence: i thought about this for a long time and ig im team letter.Lowen wanted to "be" like verity to write like her,but in order to do that,she read the manuscript but if manuscript was written from prospective of "The Villain" verity,as she said in the letter so that means this whole time Lowen was trying to be like the Villain not the true verity and in my opinion this whole love or obsession Lowen has over jeremy it's because she tried too much to be like the Villain and she just got lost the process.that's the real reason she wanted to kill verity.and honestly i can't find any reason for verity to do all of this to her kids because we know nothing about her past and i don't think you wake up one day and become a psycho.but Jeremy and Lowen at least had some reasons to be crazy and try to kill someone.i think Jeremy just wanted to blame someone for her daughter's death cause that makes it easier to get along with the pain of grief. I think the manuscript is true. but personally I just don't picture verity writing that letter with any honesty, the manuscript and injury faking were signs of a psychopath.
