Classic man. Ruining things by being a man then having regrets.

So he’s horrible and only thinks of himself and listens to rumours of other men but not his wife (naturally, like all men are and do) and she’s the daughter of a slave owner who got their slaves taken away because it’s fucked up. She’s a wet wipe but she doesn’t deserve his horribleness really.

I feel like I’m missing some bits though and it seems like there’s more to the story that I’ve lost.

Two pages into part two and I didn’t like him. But now I’m questioning it. “All benevolent. All slaveowners. All resting in peace”, perhaps he does not like her because of her past. And perhaps he has his own qualms that are not to do with untrue rumours. We CHALL SEE.
