“Oh, Finn’s fine now, don’t be so upset,” Aubree said gently. “I know this wasn’t your fault–it was that Anna girl. Don’t worry, Auntie will make sure she’s found.”

Aubree had already told her husband about Susie’s identity.

Rio was startled at first. He hadn’t expected the little girl to be a Stone family child. But when he saw her come in person to apologize, his heart softened.

So this is what a great family teaches their children–responsibility and courage.

Susie, however, wasn’t reassured by Aubree’s words. She looked at Finn and asked carefully, word by word, “Do you accept my apology?”

When Finn first woke, he had felt so much pain.

He had blamed Susie at first. He had only wanted to protect her, and yet he ended up hurt, nearly losing his parents forever. But when his mother explained that Susie had been tricked, he began to understand.

And truthfully, he liked Susie.


In their whole class, she was the fairest, the prettiest, like a porcelain doll. He liked being her friend.

“I accept your apology,” Finn said. “But will you be my friend from now on?”

“Of course. You’ve always been my
