The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage

Governor Quill cleared his throat, seemingly noticing Frank's confusion. "I was once just disciplining one of my children, only to drive my youngest son out of his mind. That was why I left Quill Manor to live on a yacht by myself." He sighed, his exasperated recounting of the past leaving even Frank feeling sorry for him.

"After I left a trail of bodies in the north, I must have invoked some curse. Since then, I carried a death aura that would petrify anyone, even my family, to the point of driving my youngest son insane.

"And so I left the manor to live by myself, only returning once a year just for show. Still, your mother was the only one who could stand me. I remember how she loved to fish with me out at sea, and we spent all the seasons on my yacht. "Hahaha... even now, I can still hear her calling me daddy. But before I knew it, the little airhead was a big girl, and she's still the only one who never feared me... It's such a shame."

Governor Quill's voice turned nasally just then, clearly shedding tears.
