"When did I ever say I didn't want him?"
Adrian stroked Sienna's belly gently and said softly to the child, "Son, don't believe what your mom just said. She's furious right now, and her words don't count. Daddy wants you, and you must be born safe and sound!"
After comforting the little one, Adrian turned to appease the older one. "Don't be angry, alright? I was wrong. I apologize."
"Sixth Master, can you tell me precisely where you were wrong?"
"Wherever you say I was wrong, that's where I was wrong."
This statement, far from dispelling Sienna's anger, only fanned the flames higher. Sienna glared at him furiously. "You don't even know where you went wrong, so what are you apologizing for? Or is Sixth Master just trying to placate me with no sincerity whatsoever?"
Adrian felt like this woman was driving him mad. "What on earth do you want me to do?" he demanded, struggling equally hard to suppress his own rising anger.
