I grabbed it instantly, clutching the key, nodding urgently. I rushed to the door, glancing back at him.
“Thank you, Desmond. I’ll never forget this…” I said, my heart breaking.
I grabbed a maid’s uniform, shoved the pouch inside the trash bag and didn’t care how I looked or if I stink. The guards didn’t notice as I passed. My heart raced when I reached the gate and saw the taxi waiting.
“Are you Desmond's—”
“Yes! Drive fast. We need to leave now!” I ordered. “Move!”
The car sped off before anyone noticed. I looked back at the mansion, once a heaven to me but now is the hell I escaped. I will never come back. Never.
