"We can do this one of two ways. You can talk to him. Get him to spill the beans, or... I can beat the truth out of him. Your call."
Aggie didn't like Connors' proposal but neither didn't she like Lewis' vagueness. She trusted him that he did have a plan but he hasn't revealed anything yet which bothered her. Sometimes, sibling promises can't just cut it. But she also thought of how Lewis would react if she let a hound like Connors on him. Would he still promise to let her out? There are only a few things she had in this prison and one of them was hope. If Connors were to beat the truth out of Lewis would that quash such a hope? Aggie was racked with thought before finally deciding.
"I'll talk to him one more time..." Aggie sighed, rubbing the back of her neck anxiously. "If he doesn't say anything... then yeah.. you can get the truth out."

"My mother never shared his strength, is it really so terrible that she wanted more warmth than she could ever find in him?"
Richard listened to Selina's "situation" as she dodged his proposal which he really didn't expect to be followed through. Her dodge proved a few things to Richard and one of which was that Selina was still her cold self. He read her statements carefully but it seemed to be the truth for the most part which concerned Richard even more. Apparently her mother had an affair but telling the father would make him grieve already more. A sticky situation nonetheless.
"Sometimes, ignorance is bliss. The truth can hurt more than intended and if your father is already "hurting" then perhaps what he doesn't know, won't hurt him. Truth can drive people to do crazy things and sometimes the truth can be blurred with lies making one indistinguishable with the other. This is a tricky situation you are caught in, just make sure your father doesn't know you know."
