Remington said that for Grace, Hanna practically sees Stella as a daughter of her own, and she might even wish it was Stella who had come back all those years ago. And looking at it now, it seemed spot on.

Hanna was holding Stella in a way that was both protective and tender, really as if she was her own daughter.

Thinking back to how she had tried to win Hanna's favor for years, yet had never earned a single word of kindness, Liz couldn't help but find herself utterly ridiculous.

It was clear that she and Hanna were never meant to be mother and daughter-in-law.
