PROLOGUE

The rain poured in torrents making the usual "pit-pat" sound on the window pane. A light suddenly came on flooding the room with it's florescent current while the shadow of two figures could be made out entering the room.

     Casting a quick glance around the corridor and seeing no one was in sight,the door was shut quietly and locked.

"Are you sure no one saw you leave the pantry?"

"Yes Lisa. All the servants have been relieved of their duties and dismissed"

"That's perfect" she whispered to herself. "What of Lucas?"

"He's fast asleep my lady, the sleeping pills are definitely working".

"We don't have time to waste.... before anyone becomes suspicious".  

   Pacing around the room,she took repeated glances at the street silently saying a prayer for the rain to stop. But it seemed that the rain could read her mind and increased the ferocity at which it fell.

"Eline, I can't wait any longer. Each moment seems like we might be discovered soon." She paused in the center of the room. "You know what to do right?"

"Yes miss" she hesitated. "But,what if I get caught?"

"Shut your mouth and be optimistic! Now take the child and leave now. The driver is waiting at the back door"

   Just as she was about to leave, she was called back.

"Here, have it" Lisa said handing a cheque to her.

"What's this?"

"That's a cheque of $8 million dollars. I believe that should cover up for your husband's medical bills and other expenses you have. I don't want to see you step your feets in this household again. I would consider that as a token for all the years you've worked here".

Eline's eyes widened in shock; $8 million dollars. That was going to do a whole lot for her family but what was more suprising was the extent Lisa would go to hide the truth. Since she was out of words, all she could do was bow her head before leaving the room.

"Mind you, I'll have my eyes on you. Any day,you try as much as to breathe a word out, I'll kill you". Lisa threatened as she left but Eline heard it well,it sounded like a whisper causing her hair to stand on her neck.

     As she was driven out, she had a feeling she was been watched but she dared not look up due to her fear. She didn't know what could drive a human to be this heartless but she quickly shook the feelings out. As far as she had her paycheck in her hands,she didn't care more about them. All that mattered now was her family and her life,the rest was the headache of Lisa's family.
