"If you said you couldn't accept the child because you wanted to be with Aria Grant, I could understand that. But I can't accept you saying this child isn't yours. The baby inside me, he could have not hated you, but the words you just said..."
Listening to Mallia Mamet, could it be that he was overthinking? But that night when his mind was so unclear, that one time, could it really be true?
"Please stand up first. You could have discussed this with me privately, but instead, you chose to come to my house and say it in front of my child and wife. Did you ever consider how I felt? Now you're here crying. Do you want everyone to see this?"
If it was about someone he loved, he definitely wouldn't care about others' opinions or judgments. He could disregard everything, even his own dignity would be worth nothing. But Mallia Mamet was no longer someone he loved; any previous affection was so fleeting and now gone.
