Last Promise (2016)

“But why did Mary Ann come here if she was to be married?” Victoria didn’t dare let on that she knew Mary Ann didn’t want to marry the Englishman.
“There was a conflict with her father and she left,” George responded.
George seemed reluctant to offer more information and no one pressed him.
