“Why
are you sorry Victoria? It is not your fault that your father is a normal man.
No man ever stays faithful to his wife and you have been clever to stay
unmarried for so long.”
Victoria’s
eyebrows shot up. Her mother thought that her not marrying was a good thing? Although
she had never been pushed into marrying any of the men who had offered for her,
she had always felt that she was letting her mother down in some way. Obviously
she had been wrong.
“Colin
is faithful to Annabelle,” Victoria said quietly, dipping her head to avoid her
mother’s eyes.
Her mother made a
very unladylike noise.
