"Then it is doing the job I give you or, your beloved Ruth loosing her job."
Mrs Payne could not believe that Eloise would say something like that only to make her get those medicines she needed for her hair care.
The whole incident with Eloise made her wonder if it was all about only those medicines or, was it had something to do with Ruth?
Mrs Payne shook, could not shake those thoughts out of her head as she walked in the corridors of 'the great manor'. It was already late in the afternoon. She needed to hurry and get those medicines from the market and the woods.
The woods...
The thought of that place sent a chill down her spine. A place where she lost her beloved husband. And that memory made her realise something. She froze in her spot for a moment. How did she not think of it before?
Her heart lurched dramatically in her ribcage. A cold fear suddenly gripped her mind and heart. Only one name came to her mind who would clear her doubt.
