"And I will," Nancy says without a second's hesitation. To her, it was nothing. Jackie was almost like a daughter to her, a sister. She would do anything for the girl, and she'd promised her mother she'd keep her safe. She had done a bang up job keeping that promise so far.
"If Fagin'll listen to anyone, it's me. I'll make him see reason. Let him know that what Jem did won't be tolerated." She sounded sure, but she'd always been quite the actress. No, she'd take this one for the girl. Poor Jackie'd gone through too much already, she didn't need to get bogged down any further. Nancy, on the other hand? Nancy couldn't sink any lower if she tried.
