He's silent a long moment, just drinking his tequila and watching her. There are many things he could say but, as he usually does, in the end he just goes for the truth.
'I don't understand why that takes away your right to have children.'
He doesn't say it casually, as such. More curious than anything. But it should be clear that he's not, in any way, disgusted or appalled by this news. He knows that might disgust and appal her but at this stage in their relationship, he's not going to pretend to be anything other than what he is.
'By that rationale, I should never have had any. By that rationale, my oldest deserved what he got.'
