Chapter 41 Summary: “Feline Kinder”

Grammy promises not to sell the items that Delsie placed in the jar, so Delsie unearths the jar and starts wearing her mother’s whale ring. Tressa arrives at Delsie’s house and asks to speak with Delsie alone. Tressa asks why Delsie saved the dog. Delsie replies that she wanted to. Repeating that she does not want to owe Delsie anything, Tressa asks Delsie why she did not take the money. Delsie reiterates that she wanted to save the dog. As Tressa turns to leave, she tells Delsie to check her back porch. There, Delsie finds the kitten she picked out, Boots, and starts crying with happiness.

Chapter 42 Summary: “To Reveal a Secret”

Delsie finds Ronan standing in the water at the beach. The sight reminds her of the day she first saw him, when he was standing in the water during a lightning storm. Ronan appears happy but is secretive, saying that he has a surprise. He then shows Delsie a lobster trap with a live lobster. Delsie wants to sell the lobster to Henry, but Ronan refuses, calling the lobster “beautiful.” Ronan releases the lobster back into the ocean. Delsie points out that it is strange he refuses to eat seafood as the son of a fisherman.
