Josephine had gone upstairs to change her clothes as Pierre had suggested they take a tour of the plantation and if they did that, they would need to eat at some point. “Bernadette? Did you hear me?” “I did, young man. You know I loved your mother very much. Enough to know that if that was what she wanted for you, she had a good reason.” Pierre watched as she lowered her eyes and looked away, reaching into the cabinets below for a loaf of bread.
