"I don't think you know your father very well if you think that." Aurora said with a chuckle. "Children were never something he aspired too. I'm quite certain he could never have another child and not think twice about it."
Aurora shook her head. "I meant no such implication." she replied. "You are your father's flesh and blood, you are therefore deserving of everything his name and status can bring." This was true, Aurora was old fashioned enough to believe that blood was everything, it was Bayleigh's simple existence that grated on her. "It is simply very hard to come to terms with the fact that someone else bore someone you love a child. It rankles, especially when all this happened when I thought him dead. It's the situation as it was moreso than him fixing it, as he is doing now. But I do not blame you or him for that, and it is something I will have to deal with in my own time, something I can only beg your patience in. "
