A Good Ending


Epilogue


Two months later, Janelle opened the Greenvale Gazette, skimming the paper for the article her dad had told her about.
         Life was good.
         Ben and his uncle Elliot had decided to turn Thorne’s Bra and Girdle Company into a women’s sports clothing line, eventually adding some sports equipment. Aunt Ida was behind bars, and would be for a long time. The house Ben inherited, Rosewood Manor, had sold. Uncle Elliot was attending church with Ben every Sunday.
         And Janelle’s left hand displayed a large diamond ring.
         Yes, life was good. And God was good.
Taking a scissors, she smiled as she clipped the newspaper article from the paper to add to her scrapbook: 

Miss Janelle Weaver will join her father in his private firm, Weaver Investigation Services, as a junior partner. Miss Weaver is engaged to Mr. Ebenezer Jedadiah Thorne III, president of Thorne’s Sporting Goods Company. An April wedding is planned.
