The doorbell rang at that moment. Sean was puzzled. “Who’s visiting at this hour?”
“Sean, answer the door. She’s my guest,” instructed Alyssa.
Sean remained confused, for Alyssa hadn’t told him about the guest before this. Still, he put histhoughts aside and opened the door.
A young and good-looking lady in her 20s stood there. She was dressed in athleisure wear and a blackcap.
“You are…” Sean wondered, examining the woman before him.
“I-I am Nina-Nina Carle. I’m a maid at the Beckett family who works for Ms. Lauren,” Nina nervouslyintroduced herself while checking out the surroundings.
Upon learning that she worked for Lauren, Sean immediately pieced the puzzle together.
“Sorry, Nina. I couldn’t pick you up because of some reasons. I had to trouble you to visit me,” Alyssagreeted Nina and held her hand. Then, she led Nina into the living room.
“It must be cold outside. Your hands are frozen. Didn’t I ask you to hail a cab? Don’t worry about thefees,” Alyssa said.
“It’s fine. I took the bus and changed to the train. It was pretty convenient,” Nina answered, her cheeksred from the cold.
She trembled, feeling touched by the care that the ex-Mrs. Beckett had shown her.
Alyssa felt bad for Nina when she recalled the walking distance from the train station to theneighborhood. She knew that Nina wanted to save some money.
Sean made a cup of hot tea for Nina and gave her a hot pack. Nina sat on the living room couch for awhile before she recovered from the cold.
“Madam-Sorry, it’s Ms. Alyssa. Thank you for taking care of Lauren all this while,” Nina whisperedfirmly. I witnessed how you treated Ms. Lauren when you were still with the Beckett family. Look, I’mwilling to do anything for Ms. Lauren.”
Alyssa observed Nina’s eyes. They were as clear as Lauren’s. She suddenly felt a heavy burden onher heart.
She had no idea if she was making the right move, but she needed to place a trustworthy figure by
After looking into the household staff, she finally picked Nina to be the spy.
Sean pressed his lips. He knew that Alyssa wanted Nina to spy on Sophia.
Alyssa explained, “Nina, I want you to gain Sophia’s trust and stay by her side. If possible, I need youto install a bug in her bedroom.”
Alyssa’s eyes darkened, and she went to the point, “I want to track every single detail of her life fromnow on.”
Nina, stunned, gripped tightly onto the hot pack without a word.
“Nina, I know this is tough for you. After all, Sophia Kirkman is Lauren’s mom and the family’smatriarch.
This mission comes with some risks as well…”
“Sure, I’ll do that.” After a brief pause, Nina slowly looked up with a steely determination and swore, “Iwill complete every mission to the best of my ability. I bear witness to what Ms. Lauren went throughover the years. Madam Sophia was only good to Ms. Betty, treating Ms. Lauren like one of the maids.Ms. Lauren was only treated with respect when Mr. Javier and Mr. Jasper were home.”
Alyssa and Sean teared up when they heard Nina’s remark. Nina continued, “I like Ms. Lauren, but Iam clear-headed. I judge Madam Sophia and Ms. Betty by their actions, not by their relationship withMs.
Lauren. I won’t allow them to hurt Ms. Lauren just because they are her family.”
Nina’s eyes brimmed with tears. “If it weren’t for Mr. Landon, I didn’t know who else could pull Ms.Lauren out of that hellhole. Mr. Landon is really nice to her.”
