"There's something I've never understood..." Helen Blair asked softly,"Since you are from the Dotterling Family, why are you so destitute? Your brother even..." Her sentence trailed off, implying his work as a gigolo.

Brian chuckled lightly, a hint of disdain in his eyes, "The Dotterling Family may be gilded, but those who dwell within are cold and callous. They knew of my mother and I but chose not to acknowledge us, because our status wasn't high enough. My mother never uttered a word about it till her death. It was only when my father realised he needed a son that he sought me out. My brother and I share the same mother but different fathers. Sometimes I wonder, if they had found me earlier, maybe things would've turned out differently." Brian's gaze dimmed.
