On a cold morning, tranquility enveloped the guest rooms' hallway until an unsettling shriek shattered the silence.
Sophia ruthlessly threw away the food tray that the maid put on her bedside table. The contents spilled on the floor.

"What's happening?" Richard entered the room, clearly having just roused from sleep. "I could hear your scream all the way from my room."
Sophia, her eyes filled with hatred, demanded, "Where's that bitch?"
