Can Dreams Come True?
Mary is a parlour maid at number 12 Regents Park, and her days are filled with hard work and misery. Made worse by Master William’s advances.
Master William takes great pleasure in making her life a misery. To the extent that she is afraid to be alone with him.
Her only solace comes in the form of her boyfriend Edward, but even he has hidden depths.
As time goes by, Mary becomes weary and depressed, as there seems to be no way out for her; and with Master William trying to get her into trouble at every opportunity with the Mistress of the house, will Mary find the courage to stand up for herself?
Diversity
Grace works as a parlour maid for Mr and Mrs Turlington, and although the work is hard, she finds solace in the fact that Master Luther is kind to her.
Sadly, the same cannot be said of Luther’s sister, who is unpredictable and seems to dislike Mary intensely. To the extent, that she goes out of her way to hurt her mentally and physically.
Ann’s behaviour towards Grace becomes even more unpleasant, when she realises that Luther has romantic feelings for Grace; resulting in Luther having to chastise Ann for her unreasonable behaviour.
Is Ann a naturally malicious woman who likes to make Grace’s life miserable, or is there another reason behind her behaviour?
