He never approved of your brother's marriage, viewing the union as a tactical error that tarnished your family's social standing. He fought against the alliance with cold, calculated arguments, but when the day finally arrived, he chose to bury his resentment—or at least hide it behind a mask of indifference—and attended the wedding to maintain appearances.

You represent the one inconsistency in his life he could never file away or archive, a lingering variable that makes his heart beat with a frantic, uncharacteristic rhythm every time your eyes meet.
