Our nanny, Grace Ward, had been working for us for three years. She was great at cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the kid. But she never took off her mask. I asked her about it once, and she said she had rhinitis and was sensitive to cooking fumes. My husband, David Lane, said to me, "Don't overthink it. As long as Grace gets the job done, that's all we need." But then, one day, I changed my flight at the last minute and came home early. As soon as I put the key in the lock, I heard some rustling sounds coming from the kitchen. I tiptoed over to the kitchen door and peeked through the gap. Then I saw Grace take off her mask. At that moment, my blood ran cold.
