A person who has a reputation for being extremely cruel in the original and has a hobby of cutting the throat of aristocrats... Is that my biological father? But other than that terrible reputation, living with him wasn't bad either. "Okay, my baby" "You can do whatever you want. If you want something, everyone in the family will do what you want." Wait...I didn't write a novel like that in the first place?
