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."

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."

Inside the study, Jared personally poured several cups of tea, already waiting there. Linden was surprised; he hadn't expected Jared to be there already.
