Simone’s eyes widened in surprise. “Why did you give her such a large sum of money?”

Bennett interjected, “We have been indebted to her for many years. She’s a young woman, and life hasn’t been easy for her. What’s the harm in giving her some extra money? You spend more than that on Carmella’s clothes every year.”
