The situation at the start

Marriage Is Described as a Means of Dependence

At Ares's office, Snow overhears him describe their marriage as a way to stop her investigating a past attack. He also speaks of her hopes for pregnancy as something that will keep her dependent. These statements shift the opening beyond infidelity into an alleged attempt to control information and mobility. In these opening paragraphs, Snow encounters the claims through a private conversation, making the speakers' stated motives central to her discovery.
