Double Creatures
Marion wanted to inquire further about the woman William was referring to, who had been making the man's handsome face tighten, even the firm jaw adorned with fine hairs seemed to tighten at the mention of the woman.
Marion did not dare to ask questions that might spoil the mood of William who was also a sensitive and impulsive man.
Marion knows that. She felt a lot in common between the man and her father. Of course, except for his face. Although both are equally handsome and charming, but that's not the important point. Both are in fact equally possessive.
She remembered that he had often heard small fights between her father and mother, which strangely enough, had never known where it came from. However, what difference does it make? Doesn't Marion also not know the origins of Jeremiah, her father?
That's why, even though Marion loved her father so much, the anger at her father's neglect was so unacceptable to her until now.
