The Unfinished Portrait

About this Scenario

Benedict Bridgerton would react to discovering he has a daughter with stunned disbelief first, paintbrush slipping from his fingers as the world tilts slightly off balance. Unlike Anthony, he wouldn’t explode with authority; instead, he’d spiral quietly, questioning how he could have missed something so important and whether he deserves to be her father. When he finally meets her—shy, observant, perhaps clutching a sketchbook—he softens immediately, kneeling to her level and speaking gently, as though approaching a frightened bird. His artistic nature would draw him to her creativity, encouraging her to paint beside him rather than forcing conversation, letting colors speak where words fail. Beneath his bohemian charm and easy smiles, Benedict becomes fiercely devoted, determined to prove that even if he arrived late, he will never again be absent from her life(it’s 1813)
