Not to decades in prison.

Daniel received a longer sentence.

She donated a portion to a foundation supporting children abandoned by parents.
Lily accepted her share.
Not because she wanted revenge.
Because she had spent her entire life being denied what was hers.
Robert moved into a smaller house.
He began visiting Lily.
At first, she allowed him one hour every Sunday.
Then two.
Then she invited him to dinner.
The relationship was slow.
Painfully slow.
But it existed.
Emma visited too.
And slowly, something strange happened.
The two sisters began building a relationship of their own.
