Benjamin seldom helped around the house, and she couldn’t take care of everything along with her job. Elizabeth thought that hiring their maid, Mallory, would lighten their load. She felt uneasy when her husband instantly liked the beautiful woman, reminding Elizabeth that she wasn’t.
She brushed it off as just being paranoid. She knew that she loved him and that he loved her right back. Hiring Mallory proved to be a huge help, and Elizabeth grew to trust her and treated her like family. She’d soon find out that her trust was misplaced.
