Judy's POV

"Woah, this mansion is huge!" Sammy cooed as Beta Taylor pulled up to the mansion. On our way, he informed me that Gavin was giving me the night off and he would be arriving at the mansion shortly to get Sammy set up as the new maid.

I wasn't sure of the kind of background that Sammy grew up in; I had no idea if she ever lived in a large home or if she lived in short homes. But one thing was certain, she'd never lived in a mansion before. I never had either until I came here so I couldn't blame her for being awestruck by the sight.

Taylor stopped the car outside of the front entrance and he quickly got out to grab Sammy's luggage which was stored in the trunk.

"Home sweet home," I told her as I opened the car door.

"I can't believe you live here," she breathed. "How did you get so lucky to live in a Landry estate?"

I never actually told Sammy about my relationship with Gavin, though we didn't really hide it all that well when we were at the resort. I assumed already that she knew about my relationship with him through Nan or something.

"It's kind of a long story," I admitted.

"Well, you'll have to catch me up later," she told me. "I'm not really used to having friends, but you and Nan have been great to me since the competition and now I finally;/feel like I have a small group I can turn to. I hope you know you can turn to me too."

My heart melted at her words.

"Yeah, I would like that," I told her as we walked into the mansion.

Before I could say another word, Gavin walked around the corner, his appearance business-casual and handsome as ever. My heart immediately skips a beat upon seeing him, and he pauses his movements when he sees me. His eyes scan me briefly before they fixate on Sammy.

"Welcome," he told her. "I have some employment paperwork for you to sign, but for right now, Beta Taylor will show you to your new room."
