At first, Nora was intimidated by her, but she quickly realized that beneath the tough exterior, Mrs. Thompson was a kind and fair woman.

Mrs. Thompson noticed Nora's dedication and work ethic. Despite her privileged background, Nora never complained, never shirked her duties. She was always the first to arrive and the last to leave. Mrs. Thompson began to take Nora under her wing, offering her guidance and advice. She taught Nora the ins and outs of the job, sharing her wisdom and experience.

Nora was grateful for the unexpected ally. Mrs. Thompson became a mentor to her, helping her navigate the challenges of her new life. With Mrs. Thompson's support, Nora began to gain confidence in her abilities. She started to see herself not as a fallen heiress, but as a capable and strong woman who could overcome any obstacle.

She realized that she was not alone in her journey. Others had faced similar hardships and had come out stronger on the other side. This realization fueled Nora's determination to keep going, no matter how difficult the road ahead might be.
