Later, a misunderstanding leads Richard to blame Margarete for his mother's death. She flees his grand house, but she doesn't stay gone forever. When she returns, she brings three orphaned children with her. God has something wonderful in store for these broken souls. A powerful love that will change everything.he couldn't say that animated would ever have been a word he would have used to describe the shy, silent maid.
