Tears streamed down Estella’s face as she sobbed, “Ms. Jarvis, please forgive Daddy!” Roxanne’s eyes flickered.

She had just promised to stay out of Estella’s matters, but the little girl’s tears nearly caused her to go back on her word. A brief hesitation later, she reached out to wipe Estella’s tears away.
