At one time, Jacob MacCallum had it all: wealth, a wonderful family, and a position as one of the most respected businessmen in Chicago. For the past 20 years, he's lived in an alcohol-induced haze, riddled with guilt for his role in the untimely death of his wife. Estranged from his children and penniless, he embarks on a journey to find his family and seek their forgiveness. On his path to redemption, he encounters a young girl whose friendship might be the key to reuniting the MacCallum family just in time for Christmas.

This encapsulates a notion, a bit of whimsy that occurred to me. A "whatever happened to...?" for a minor character from Dickens' old tale. In the full text of A Christmas Carol, a mature Belle is briefly seen by Scrooge at home with her husband and children. She is also seen in a caregiving setting in the wonderful 1951 film version starring Alastair Sim.
