He wants to tell Ainsley thatĀ sickness such as her fatherās is made.Ā Crafted carefully and forcefully through a primordial soup of opportunity, genes, and fermentation. Circumstance and aligned personality disorders and the now mocked,Ā Ā refrigerator mother of the 1950s to rear someone capable of murder. But that would still be inheriting such a sickness, wouldnāt it? Absorbing the urge. Learning it.Ā
Will gives Ainsley a long look, eyes fixed somewhere just above her head, and finally answers quietly, āThereās no denying that certain pathologies can be...Hereditary, if that is what you mean. But there are usually signs along the way. Behaviors that precede and can make identifying people like your father easier.āĀ A pause, then, āPathological lying, can be one of them.āĀ
He leans forward and rests elbows on his knees, chin in his hands. āDo you consider lying and secrets to be of the same nature?āĀ
