Double close or give higher sale price?

So I have a property under contract for $85k, was looking to assign for $95k. The seller asked if I could possibly renegotiate my offer, I know she's in a tough spot but the $85k was what I negotiated with her husband; they're getting divorced. So hypothetically I would rather not have her find out I collected a $10k assignment. If I want to be the nice guy should I double close and lose $3-4k to do so, or just give her back $3k at closing? Or should I just be a business guy and take the $10k I negotiated? Curious to see what other seasoned pros would do. Thanks for the help as always.
