Elsa came out of Alice's room, just in time to run into Lora who was carrying freshly squeezed juice to Alice.
"Lora, Mommy just laid down."
Elsa deliberately blocked the way. Lora nodded, "Then I'll put the juice on the bedside table and come out. Mommy can drink it when she wakes up."
She said, bypassing Elsa and going in.
Elsa stared at her in anger and gave a wink at the maid Mrs. Brown who was wiping the floor in the hallway.
Not half an hour after Elsa returned to her room, Mrs. Brown came in with a plate of fruit.
"Miss Elsa, I heard that Mrs. Alice gave Miss Lora a card. There is a million in it. Mrs. Alice said it was to make up for Miss Lora's lucky money over the years."
Elsa was flipping through the magazine, and when she heard what Mrs. Brown said, she ripped a page.
