If asked, how much love does Elbarack have for Alana? Firmly the man ensured that all the love he had was dedicated to his second wife.

Even though bodies are separate.

Even though he didn't give 100% attention to Alana, still. He only has one love, for Alana alone.

Even the anger and disappointment he was feeling right now, did not diminish that love in the least. Even if some time later he chose to remain silent. The goal is because you don't want to prolong the debate. He even hoped that Alana would understand a little how difficult the position Elbarack was currently in.
