Bayarn’s attitude of getting his way is displayed later when he asks Angela to sell him a music box that was intended to be raffled off. Upon her refusal, he bought all the raffle tickets just so that he could claim the music box. In another instance, Bayarn asks Angela about her favorite house, and she answered that the widower’s house was the prettiest. He went ahead to entice the widower to sell it, although the widower had told Bayarn that it held sentimental value. Despite that, he was persistent about buying the house, and the widower ended up selling it, a factor that resulted in his death two months later. The above events show that Bayarn was not used to rejection. He did not consider that someone might reject his advances, and when that happened, he tried all manners of tricks to ensure that he got his way. The fact that he wanted to marry Angela means that he regarded her as an object to be acquired the same way he was used to acquiring other objects that had roused his interest.
