Sarah adjusted her plain blue uniform as she walked through the heavy front doors.
The morning sun was shining brightly over the massive Dallas estate.
This luxury mansion belonged to David, a wealthy local business owner.
David was a hardworking father who cared deeply for his family.
He had built his entire fortune through years of tough trade.
His little daughter Lily was the center of his whole life.
Lily was a soft, gentle baby girl who was recently adopted.
David loved her more than all his money and properties combined.
However, his new wife Brenda did not share those same sweet feelings.
Brenda married David only a few short months ago for status.
She loved the expensive clothes and the giant private mansion background.
She hated the fact that Lily would share the huge inheritance.
Every time David turned his back, Brenda stared coldly at Lily.
Sarah noticed those cold stares during her very first week working.
Sarah was a quiet maid who worked hard to support her family.
She kept her head down and did her daily household chores.
Yet her eyes were always open to protect the little baby girl.
She knew Brenda was dangerous behind her fake, sweet smile.
On this bright Texas morning, David was preparing for a meeting.
He straightened his sharp dark suit in the large grand hallway.
He kissed baby Lily gently on her smooth, small forehead.
"I will be back home very soon, my little angel," David whispered.
Brenda stood on the wide staircase wearing an expensive designer dress.
She smiled sweetly down at David and blew him a gentle kiss.
"Have a great meeting, darling, we will be waiting," Brenda said.
David smiled warmly and walked out toward his luxury vehicle.
The moment the heavy front doors clicked shut, Brenda's face changed.
Her fake sweet smile completely disappeared from her smooth face.
She looked down at baby Lily with pure hatred in her eyes.
Sarah kept mopping the marble floor near the big glass doors.
She felt a sudden cold shiver run right down her spine.
She watched Brenda reach down and grab the swaddled baby roughly.
Brenda walked toward the wide upper balcony overlooking the backyard pool.
Sarah dropped her mop instantly and followed her steps in silence.
She knew she had to watch every single move Brenda made.
