THE NURSE FROZE WHEN SHE SAW HER MOTHER'S PHOTO IN THE MILLIONAIRE'S MANSION...
Sarah Miller drove up the long, winding road leading to the Williams estate, the tires of her small car crunching on the gravel as she approached the towering iron gates. She’d heard about the mansion before. Everyone in the city knew of the Walkers, especially Michael Walker, the powerful businessman who ran the family empire. But today, she wasn’t here to admire the wealth or status. She was here for a job - to care for James Walker, Michael’s ailing father.
The gates creaked open slowly, as if even they were too old and tired to perform their duties. Sarah tightened her grip on the steering wheel, feeling a twinge of unease. She shook it off. It was just another job, she told herself. She had worked as a nurse for years and cared for patients from all walks of life. This would be no different.
The mansion loomed ahead, its tall, gray walls framed by perfectly manicured gardens. As she parked and stepped out, the air around her felt heavy, thick with an odd mix of anticipation and an unsettling quiet. She rang the doorbell and waited, her eyes drifting across the grand front yard, trying to take in the sheer size of the place.
