Her father had been a governor—a former governor. Growing up in such a prestigious family, she had access to things others couldn't even dream of, but she had also seen things they could never imagine. Like her father, for instance. Many believed his frail health in old age was the result of war and years of political battles. He had collapsed one night, suddenly unable to walk, and when the doctors arrived, they confirmed he would never stand or walk independently again.
She knew, however, that the real reason was his reckless behavior with younger women, even into his sixties. He had lived indulgently and suffered the consequences. Because of this, she turned a blind eye to such matters, having grown used to them, perhaps even accepting them.
