Esther had wept for an entire Wednesday when she first heard of Natalie's death, and even now, the memory could still bring her to tears. Natalie reached out to wipe Esther's eyes, saying, "Come on, the child is all grown up now, still crying Tina handed her a tissue, urging, "Dry your tears."

Esther looked up at Tina, then turned to Natalie, "Natalie, Tina has suffered a lot at the Reed family's hands. Today, with both you and Mr. Brookes here, I represent the Reed family and offer you and Tina an apology." With those words, Esther bowed deeply.

Tina helped her up, saying, "Aunt Esther, you don't need to do this."

"Really, if you keep this up, I'll get angry," Natalie added, patting Esther on the back. "Everyone's here now, isn't it much better?"

Esther nodded repeatedly, "Yes, you're right, it is good now."

Linden, standing aside, knew well the suffering endured over the years by both Natalie and Tina, due to Jasper and his organization. He knew that merely an apology or a bow could not make up for it all. Yet, these matters were unrelated to his beloved.

Linden put his hand on Esther's shoulder, gently comforting her, "Esther, it's rare for you to meet Natalie, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Let's talk about something cheerful."

"Alright, Natalie, let's go chat over there," Esther affectionately linked arms with Natalie, and they went off to join Scarlett in conversation.
