Wendy was very glad that the elderly lady liked Jake. So, Wendy felt a little bad towards Mrs. Lucas when she thought of how she was taking Jake back to Rheinsville City.
No matter what her relationship was like with Michael or with the Lucases, from the very beginning, Mrs. Lucas had never done anything wrong to her. Instead, she had always protected and defended Wendy.
During her three years of marriage, if not for Mrs. Lucas, Wendy would probably have been tormented to death by Michael.
Thinking back about the past, Wendy only felt how blind she was, eyes as well as heart.
Thankfully, she was no longer the silly, incorrigible woman she used to be.
Wendy watched Jake leave to play with his great-grandmother with mixed feelings showing on her face. She turned to walk to the kitchen. She did not come to the main house very much but was still quite familiar with it.
