He raised an eyebrow but didn't push the subject. He could understand her anger at the Petrellis-minus-Peter at the moment. Since realizing that she was adopted, and even moreso since discovering her abilities, he had seen her need for reassurance that she was wanted and loved. He had tried to show her, though he had tried to keep it hidden that he knew the reasons behind it.
