The story
He will not let his own daughter call him Dad.
Aria's father only has eyes for his first love. He skips his daughter's birthday to propose to his ex, sides with his mistress when she and her daughter bully Aria at the school talent show, and even feeds Aria a strawberry cake he knows she is allergic to, just to free up her summer camp spot. She nearly dies. That is the day her mother stops enduring and reveals the secret she has carried all along. She is the daughter of a duke, and she is done letting anyone hurt her little girl. His kneeling and begging comes far too late.
