The Vision Jean Foresaw

"I hope there will be less conflict within their family..." Jean hoped the Mutant family would grow ever more harmonious, but if that harmony came at the cost of their original families, she would feel deeply guilty.

There was also a faint note of resentment in her words.

Daisy lowered her gaze. Jean was probably aware that Scott had fallen for someone else. She had promised Cable not to interfere in that matter, so claiming that Director Daisy bore no responsibility for Jean's current state would be utter nonsense.

Jean had been constantly running around for the Mutant cause lately, likely using work to dull the pain of heartbreak.

To distract Jean, Daisy teased, "I'm afraid your worries are going to come to nothing. That boy's mutant genes are extremely active. I'd estimate he'll undergo mutation within a month at most. And Reed Strucker actually has mutant genes in his body as well; they've simply been suppressed by some kind of drug. As for Catherine Strucker, if I wanted to, I could guide the mutant genes in her body into awakening too..."

Although the key factors of mutant genes all came from the father, that did not mean the mother played no role at all. One mutation and one normal gene made it possible to produce Mutants.
