Great Aunty May Cardwell had died and had jointly left Shannon Cardwell and Owen Osborne, a ten thousand hectare stud cattle and sheep station in the Australian Outback, but there was serious problems waiting there for Shannon Cardwell. "Shannon we are all shocked about what happened to you, but we are glad you are back. You are invaluable to us here and we missed you. You are so good with the big animal practice, but now you are the owner of one of the prime grazing properties in the country, what are your plans? I suppose you will want to be more involved in that operation?" "Owen is a wonderful manager and now part owner. He will ensure the farm continues on. I probably won't have much to do with it from now on, especially after what happened, but I would like to take up your offer to become a full partner here." She saw the beautiful vase of mixed roses on the front counter. "My, Jodie, you have an admirer?" and Shannon pointed to the flowers. "Um, no, they are not for me. They are for you. They were just brought in a few minutes ago. There's a small card. Just signed Owen. Nothing else". Shannon came over and looked at the card and her eyes misted. "Damn, I didn’t need this. Why did he do it?" Jodie looked up surprised at Shannon's comments.
