Jonathan stroked her cheek, "I hope what she's yearning for is family, not money. And | hope she understands what we're trying to
do for her. That she stays true to herself and doesn't get blinded by wealth."
Estelle pursed her lips slightly, "I hope she won't. But I'll be careful, too."
"Let's just watch her for a while. If Evelyn really wins over Old Mr. Quintin's heart, it doesn't matter if she's really his or not. And if

Estelle clung to him, "I've been missing her, too."
Jonathan chuckled softly, "I've never heard you say you missed me."
"Never? I'm sure I've said it lots of times."
