[The recognition, he expects. It is her mother, after all. It's the shock that comes after that he's looking for. Apollo holds back his commentary for the moment. A few seconds later, he sees the exact moment that her expression shifts, knowing she's finally caught on.]

Honestly? I'm not sure, either. [As he exhales quietly, his gaze drops down to the picture again.] I found this file of the Misham case in the office when I was cleaning up. This picture was in there--along with this. [With a bit more reluctance, Apollo rifles through the papers until he finds Thalassa's profile, then hands that over to Trucy, too. The notes on her status as a Gramaye, her marriage to Zak, her fateful accident are all expected. The few lines about her first marriage and the possibility of another child are not.

While she's reading, Apollo clears his throat and nervously turns his bracelet on his wrist.]
Did I ever tell you how I got this bracelet?
