Lady Georgette looks at her husband " Looks like my daughter, Lady Katherine is going to become the first Duchess of Suffolk Territory." Lady Georgette states.
"I can't help it if Lord Andrew Charles Howard is the senior Dukke on Star Base 12 and his second cousin twice removed, Lord Richard William Carey is the second highest Duke on Star Base 12." Lord Henry tells his wife.
Lady Georgette looks at her husband " I have Lady Karissa to thank for this change on Star Base 12 ever since she arrived." Lady Georgette states.
"I don't think that Lord Andrew Charles Howard would agree." Lord Henry states.
"Lady Karissa is a Marchioness, before Lord Andrew Charles was a Duke and his father created him a Viscount. Now doesn't that tell you how much Lord Charles Andrew JR thought about Lady Karissa." Lady Georgette states.
"I have to admit that Lord Andrew Charles knew what he was doing when he married Lady Karissa in March of 2275 and two months later they had a daughter, Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard who would succeed her father." Lord Henry tells his wife.
"Do you realize that I have to provide a dowry to the man that marries our daughters?" Lord Henry tells Lady Georgette.
"Now with a son I don't have to provide because his wife would come with a dowry." Lord Henry states.
"Our daughters will make good marriages with some of the most prominent families in time." Lady Georgette states.
All three of Lord Henry's daughters are beautiful. They attract the attention of every young man on Star Base 12.
