"You tried to tell Aurora the truth, didn’t you? But before you even got the chance to meet her, you were kidnapped again by the Duke and dragged back to Westmore. That bastard is a real nuisance. I thought about just killing him and escaping, spring water or not."

"You must’ve had a rough time, having someone like that for a father."
