daughter, Jodie. Use it wisely, and live a good life.”
    Jodie looked more shocked than anyone else in the room.
    “Are you sure that she left it all to me?” Jodie asked.
    “I'm sure, Jodie,” McAllister said. “She made sure that her will was kept up to date. She confided to me once that she hoped that after she was gone, the fortune she left you would help to heal the wounds between you in some small way. She only knew one kind of love, tough, but that didn't mean that she didn't love you.”
    “I can't believe it,” Jodie said quietly. Her eyes misted as she listened to the words that her mother had spoken.
    “Your mother loved you, Jodie,” Bekki said softly and touched the back of her hand. “Even if it wasn't in the way that you needed her to. You loved her, too, that's why you went after Holly the way you did. Maybe you'll never get the relationship that you longed for, but at least you know now how she felt.”
    “Yes,” Jodie said with a faint sniffle. “Maybe that's the most valuable thing she could have left me.”
    Bekki and Jodie spent the rest of the evening talking about their memories of Stella. Despite the fact that they had both missed the memorial, they still managed to hold one of their own.
