Chapter 2

After leaving the hotel, Allison’s first stop was the hospital to pay off her overdue medical bills.

Next, she returned to the tiny house behind Ms. Flanagan’s mansion. That was her home, hidden away in the shadows being overshadowed by the grand villa in front.

Her father, Joshua, had been the Flanagan family’s chauffeur, and her mother, Grace, had been their maid. After Joshua’s death, she and her mother moved into this old shabby house.
