Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before slaying the dragon

In fact, Pompey was different from Caesar. He was not designated as the heir of the Cattuso family at birth. Of course, the elders of the Cattuso family at that time could never have imagined that the person who would be in charge of such a large family foundation in the future would be such a bastard.

On the surface, Pompey is a playboy who does not work properly, but in fact he has real talent and knowledge. Pompey has a doctorate in geophysics from the Swiss Federal University of Zurich, and this degree was not bought. In his profession, Pompey's knowledge even surpasses that of a group of respected old scholars at the Kassel Academy... However, Pompey's academic qualifications and knowledge have been used far more often when he is not doing his job properly than when he is doing legitimate research. When chatting with women, he often uses words like "You know, dear, our earth has only a lifespan of 5 billion years, but my love for you is eternal" and "Fireworks are not as beautiful as volcanic eruptions. Don't be obsessed with these cheap artificial fireworks. Wait for me to take you to the Kamchatka volcanoes tonight to see the grand fireworks that nature has prepared for you for hundreds of millions of years" to start a conversation.

It has to be said that Pompey's skill in flirting with girls is incredibly superb. He can make a woman willing to stay with him for a whole night with just a few words and a few minutes.

Pompey often told his son that the only woman he loved in his life was Caesar's mother Gulveg, and that other women were just for fun and occasional... Of course Caesar scoffed at this, and no wonder Caesar didn't believe it, because when Pompey said this to him, there were often women wearing sexy lace clothes waiting for him in the stallion father's room, but Pompey would not go back, because he had just come out of the room and was ready to hunt new targets. He said this to Caesar while buttoning the chest buttons of his shirt, and he always only buttoned the bottom two buttons.

Therefore, using words like "scum", "bastard" and "stud" to describe Pompeii is really not slander or defamation. Pompeii was already notorious. Why should a ruin with collapsed emotional values ​​care about the insults of the world... But even though Pompeii was such a bastard, there were still countless women in this world who fell in love with him uncontrollably. Even in the socialite circle, many women were proud to be able to climb into Pompeii's bed. They did not ask for money or status, and were satisfied with just one night of love.

Because Pompey was such a handsome man, Caesar inherited his long golden hair and sea-blue eyes from this man. Pompey had a high nose bridge and a very manly beard. He often wore a pair of rimless glasses, his skin was a healthy wheat color, and the wide neckline of his shirt revealed his perfectly shaped chest muscles. Pompey also had a family background that was enough to look down on the whole of Europe. He also had profound knowledge and a perfect love that could make a woman's heart bloom with just a few words... It was hard for a woman in this world not to be moved by such a man. Therefore, even though Pompey's views on love were very bad, so bad that even beggars in Rome would spit on him when they passed by, and even the vice-president who couldn't even recognize his own son felt ashamed of himself, there were still many women with good looks and figures, and even prominent family backgrounds, who fantasized about getting the favor of this perfect man one day.

This is a well-known fact, so Lu Mingfei and the others also understand why Caesar hates his father so much, even hates him. Just imagine a father who always says that he only loves your dead mother and brings home one or two stepmothers for you almost every day. Which son would not want to sever the father-son relationship with him?

But Lu Mingfei knew that Pompey was by no means simple. Under his playboy mask, there must be a strange man with great scheming, intelligence and martial arts skills. Otherwise, Pompey should not be the head of the Gattuso family today, and Pompey's brother Frost Gattuso, who was shrewd and capable and managed the Gattuso family in an orderly manner, would not be just the acting head of the family.

"Okay, go ahead and talk about your business." Angers glanced at Pompey, "Do you need me to call out the other irrelevant people?"

"It's okay, it's okay. We are all relatives and friends. Why are we being so formal?" Pompey waved his hand indifferently. "When my son and daughter-in-law get married, maybe you will be the best man or bridesmaid."

Lu Mingfei's heart sank and he subconsciously glanced at Nuo Nuo. From what Pompey said, he seemed to have guessed why this idle patriarch came this time.

Caesar just looked at Pompey coldly. They didn't look like a father and son in the traditional sense at all. Instead, they looked like a pair of enemies who would never see each other again.

"I'm here for you." Pompey's eyes fell on Nuonuo, "Chen Motong."

"Are you going to take me back to the Golden Iris Academy?" Nono also looked at Pompey and asked in a low voice, "Or take me directly back to Gattuso's house?"

"Compared to these things, the old guys in the family asked me to ask you a question first." Pompey looked around and rubbed his hands, as if he was a little embarrassed. It was hard to imagine what kind of question would make this playboy who was famous throughout Europe feel embarrassed.

"Just ask." Nono said softly.

"Well... um..." Pompey hesitated for a moment, covered his lips with his hand, and asked Nuonuo in a low voice, "Ms. Chen Motong, are you still a virgin?"

Bang!

A huge sound echoed in the huge conference room. Everyone subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound. Caesar had stood up and pressed his broad palm on the conference table, leaving spider-web-like cracks on the hard tabletop.

"Are you looking for death?" Caesar stared at Pompey coldly. He looked like an angry lion, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

There is no doubt that if Pompey continued to ask such rude questions to Nono Menglang, Caesar might really confront his biological father.

"Alas, do you think I don't know this question is too much? I, Pompey, consider myself a bastard, but I wouldn't ask such an uneducated question to my future daughter-in-law, right? I don't care whether the girls I sleep with are virgins or not, so why should I worry about my son's woman?" Pompey sighed and explained helplessly, "It's all because of those old guys in the family who love to ask questions. They insisted that the future mistress of the Gattuso family must guarantee a pure body, chastity is the bottom line of the family, and the future bloodline of the Gattuso family must not have any magazines. They also told me to ask privately and hide it from my son. Am I such a sneaky person?"

"This problem...hasn't it been checked at the Golden Iris Academy?" Despite Nono's personality, he was embarrassed to talk about such a private matter in front of so many acquaintances.

"Yes, I checked it at Golden Iris Academy, but it's been over a week now." Pompey scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "Also, I heard that... you seemed to have been kidnapped by a man. The family is worried that the man is a rapist who coveted your beauty."

In the conference room, everyone's eyes subconsciously fell on Finkel. Nono also glanced at Finkel. Finkel felt a chill on the back of his neck and quickly jumped out to prove himself.

"Really not! I swear! I don't like Junior Sister at all!" Finkel raised his hands above his head, "And Junior Sister is the one Junior Brother wants. I am at most an accomplice in the kidnapping. Junior Brother is the mastermind. If there really is a rapist, it won't be my turn!"

"Fuck you!" Lu Mingfei finally couldn't help but swear at this guy.

"Shut up!" Nono glared at the two idiots. She looked at Pompey and said, "I can guarantee your chastity, but I think the head of the Pompey family understands that I make sure I am clean only because I love myself as a normal woman, not because of the so-called requirements and traditional dogma of the Gattuso family."

"I understand, I understand. I also think that those old people in the family are too old-fashioned. I'm asking this for them. Don't worry, I'm not the kind of bad father-in-law who requires his daughter-in-law to be obedient and virtuous. I'm very open-minded." Pompey said to Nono casually, "You can come back to Golden Iris Academy anytime you want."

"Nono will not go back to Golden Iris Academy with you." Caesar suddenly spoke, interrupting Pompey's words, "She will not go back to Gattuso's house with you either."

"Caesar..." Nono looked at the man she had decided to marry.

"Alas, I don't want to come either. I didn't want to come today at all. It's because the old guys in the family said that the family rules must be followed, but they don't want the future heir of the Gattuso family to hate them, so they have to let me, the old father, be the bad guy." Pompey spread his hands and said, "Of course I don't want to, but the old guys said that my son already hates me enough, and too many lice won't sting you. Anyway, I, an old father, will never be in my son's eyes. But because of a woman, the heir and the family become enemies, which is not worth the loss. These are the original words of the old guys. They want a docile mistress, but they don't want to be a bad guy. I'm just a messenger."

"Then you pass on my words to the family exactly as they are. Nono will not go back. She will become Caesar's wife, but she doesn't have to be the mistress of the Catuso family." Caesar said to Pompey expressionlessly.

"Do you know what will happen if I really help you bring these words back to the family?" Pompey sighed, "People in the family have always said that they have been too gentle to you over the years, and those old guys doted on you too much, letting you do whatever you want. But the elders in the family will not compromise on this matter. You have a temper, and they have one too. If the old guys are irritated, they will lift the coffin lid and curse in the street!"

"Let them curse if they want. This is none of my business, let alone Nono's." Caesar shook his head, and there was still no expression on his handsome face, which was exactly the same as Pompey's.

"There are many things in this world that can't be ignored. Even if you don't recognize me as your father, you are still my son. Even if I don't like to meddle in family affairs, we all have the blood of the Gattuso family in our veins." Pompey's expression became serious for once. He looked at Caesar and whispered, "You think you understand the family, but you don't know what the word 'Gattuso' means. The old guys in the family have lived longer than us, and their power is greater than you think. It's too easy for them to make a person or a family disappear from this world, just like moving an ant from its nest. To put it bluntly, it's because you like Chen Motong that she has the opportunity to become the mistress of the Gattuso family. If you don't obey, the old guys can completely change a bride for you..."

"There's no need to say anything more about what I said before." Caesar suddenly interrupted Pompey and said in a voice that was almost a growl, "To hell with those old guys!"

"Huh? What do you mean, Caesar?" Pompey didn't look angry at all.

"I never care about the thoughts of people I don't care about. Those old guys can ask for whatever they want and think whatever they want. I only care about the feelings of me and Nono." Caesar looked at Pompey coldly and said, "Nono will definitely become my wife, but I don't have to be the heir of the Gattuso family."

"You will definitely be the heir of the Gattuso family, Caesar, don't you understand?" Pompey looked into Caesar's eyes and said, "You are my son, Pompey Gattuso. There will be no one else but you as the head of the Gattuso family. That's why those old guys are so insistent on ensuring Chen Motong's affairs, because Chen Motong was chosen by you, and you are the chosen one by heaven. If they have other candidates for heirs, it would be more convenient to replace the heir and the future mistress together."

"I think you don't understand." Caesar looked Pompey in the eye and said, "What I mean is that whether to inherit the Gattuso family is not decided by the old men in the family, but by me. If being the heir means embarrassing my future wife, this choice does not require me to think for even a second."

"I understand. What you mean is that you want to break up with your family for Chen Motong?" Pompey supported his chin and looked at Caesar.

"Hasn't what I expressed been clear enough?" Kai asked back coldly.

The atmosphere was deadlocked for a long time, and Caesar just stared at Pompey. This was probably the longest time he had stared at his cheap father in his twenty-plus years of life. After Caesar became an adult, he felt that even looking at this guy would dirty his eyes.

"Caesar, there's no need to get to this point. I volunteered to go to Golden Iris Academy. I'm happy that you have the courage to be with me regardless of everything, but I'm also willing to do something for you." Nono suddenly spoke up, and said to Caesar in a rare serious tone, "I used to think that I couldn't do this, but people change, especially for something they love."

"But I don't want you to change." Caesar looked at Nono and shook his head. "You don't need to change. When I first heard the name Nono, they all said you were crazy. I was curious about how crazy you were, but the first time I saw you, I fell in love with you."

Chapter 1032 Gulveig's Ring

"I deeply love the Nono I saw at first sight. I love her pride, her courage, and her willfulness." Caesar looked at Nono and said in a tone that was almost like a confession, "I don't need the woman I love to change anything for me, even for me. If a man needs a woman to suppress her personality in order to be together, I think this is no longer a wedding, it's just some kind of transaction."

"Well said!" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but stand up and took the lead in applauding Caesar, "Boss, you are a real man!"

As he spoke, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but glance at Eiry. He totally agreed with Caesar's words because he felt the same way about Eiry. If you love someone, you have to love everything about that person. If you need to make someone become what you want, then don't provoke them from the beginning. That doesn't deserve to be called love at all.

"As expected of the president of our student union, he has a high level of ideological awareness. He is exactly like me back then!" Finkel also jumped out to make his presence felt.

But everyone instinctively ignored this guy.

Chu Zihang silently applauded Caesar, Ye Sheng and Jiude Aji also clapped lightly, Jiude Aji's eyes even turned red. Caesar's words were too damaging to the sentimental girl.

"Girl, if you meet a man like this, just marry him." Susie also whispered beside Nuo Nuo, "If I were you, I would kneel down for him and buy him a diamond ring with my own money."

Nuonuo ignored her best friend's words and didn't turn to look at her, but her hand under the table was secretly pinching Susie's arm, meaning that she thought this girl was worthless.

Nono's gaze remained on Caesar. There was no surprise or disbelief in her eyes, as if it was completely within her expectation that Caesar would say such words.

Yes, this is the man she chose. What's unexpected about it? From the beginning, Nono knew that Caesar was such a person. He was just, brave, and responsible... Wasn't it because Caesar was such a man that she was willing to marry him?

So it proves that his vision is quite good... However, since Caesar could say this in front of his father, Nono felt it was necessary to reward him.

At least what Caesar could do for her, she could do too.

"So, when do you plan to propose to me?" Nuonuo suddenly asked Caesar with a playful tone.

The topic of proposal is usually brought up by boys. If a girl brings up this topic on her own initiative, it may seem like she is worried about getting married. But at this moment, Nono took the initiative to bring up this topic in front of so many people, which shows her feelings for Caesar.

Many people think that Nono’s decision to be with Caesar was just a spur of the moment, because that’s Nono’s personality. When it comes to getting married, she will most likely back off… Actually, this is not entirely wrong, because Nono herself didn’t quite understand why she would agree to the Gattuso family to go to the Golden Iris Academy for bridal training. At that time, Nono felt that she was really impulsive. She thought about it and quickly made the decision, because there was nothing wrong with marrying Caesar. Caesar was the blood heir of the Gattuso family, with a good background, broad knowledge, romance, handsomeness, good to her, responsibility, and a strong sense of justice… His advantages were as numerous as a mountain, and every girl wanted to marry Caesar. If Nono had to marry someone, she would choose Caesar.

Nuonuo really thought so before, and she decided to receive bride training without thinking clearly. It seemed that she would get married without thinking clearly soon... As for whether she would regret it in the future, that was all a matter for the future.

But at this moment, Caesar stood in front of Nono. When Nono saw this man who contradicted his father and even his family for her, just to protect her, Nono found that getting married was not so scary. She chose Caesar not because she had no choice. Caesar was her best choice. She was not ready to give herself to this man for no reason. If nothing unexpected happened, she would love Caesar for the rest of her life... She was just a little crazy and a little playful, but she was never promiscuous. Loving someone should be a lifelong thing, at least Nono always thought so.

So actually there is no choice, it was Caesar from the very beginning. For Nono, there is no compromise at all. She truly loves Caesar, so she is willing to go to the Golden Iris Academy for training for him, and willing to endure the cumbersome dogma of the Gattuso family for him. Nono didn't think it through before and felt that she was being pushed around, but now that she has figured it out, she finds that she is actually following her heart... She is Nono, and no one in this world can force her to do something she doesn't like.

As long as you figure it out, everything will become clear.

Hearing Nuonuo's words, Caesar was also stunned, but he quickly came to his senses. Caesar subconsciously touched the lining pocket, where there had been a ring box, and inside it was a platinum ring with a five-carat red diamond. It was used to propose to Nuonuo, and he had always carried it with him. Today it could finally be used... But when he touched the shriveled lining pocket, Caesar's body stiffened, and the pocket was empty.

"When we boarded the plane, all the metal objects we carried with us were handed over." Shude Aki reminded Caesar in a low voice.

After hearing this, Caesar remembered that this mission was absolutely confidential. Before registering, Angel ordered all of them to hand over all electronic devices and metal objects on their bodies... including metal buttons. Caesar gave away the ring together with the ring box. Nono's words made his mind blank for a moment, so that Caesar forgot about it.

However, for Caesar, this was not a far cry from heaven to hell. It was easy for him to get a heavyweight engagement ring anywhere in the world. Although Caesar had never thought that Nono would suddenly bring up the topic of proposal on such an occasion, he had been planning for the proposal to Nono for a long time and had made all the preparations.

All he has to do is make a phone call, and no matter where he is in the world... except for the polar regions and uninhabited areas, someone will deliver the same valuable ring to him within ten minutes. There are many people in the Mint Club or Hunter website who are willing to serve the name of Caesar Gattuso.

Caesar was stunned again when he touched his cell phone, because when he got on the plane... he also handed over his cell phone.

Caesar Gattuso had never encountered such an embarrassing situation in his life. The girl he wanted to propose to took the initiative to bring up this topic with him. He had obviously prepared for it and had ten thousand ways to solve it... but all the ways to solve the problem were confiscated.

In just these two brief moments, Caesar even began to wonder whether he should extend a hand and let Nono wait for him here, and then run to the largest luxury goods counter nearby to buy the most expensive wedding ring... If he didn't have money or a card, he could sign a check, but wouldn't that seem too insincere?

But the girl brought up the topic herself. If he can't even take out a ring, it would be too shabby to even mention his sincerity... Which girl would be willing to accept such a simple proposal?

"Cough cough..."

When the atmosphere was tense, an untimely cough suddenly sounded in the conference room.

Pompey's cough was fake, obviously intended to interrupt Caesar and Nono's conversation and attract their attention.

"Son, have you really thought it through about marrying this girl?" Pompey looked at Nono, and finally his eyes fell on Caesar.

Caesar just looked at this cheap father coldly, too lazy to even mock him... He has been preparing for so long, doesn't he want to marry Nono? Is he just a child playing house?

"Is it worth leaving the family just for this girl?" Pompey looked at Caesar and said earnestly, "You should know the price of leaving the Gattuso family. The identity of the family heir can bring you too many conveniences, wealth, status and power. When you truly inherit the family, you will have the highest power in the world of mixed-bloods. But once you leave the family, all of this will have nothing to do with you. The surname 'Gattuso' will be stripped from your name, and you will be reduced from the world's top dignitaries to an ordinary person overnight."

"Nothing is unworthy. There is no comparison between the two." Caesar said to Pompey with a calm and even disdainful expression, "To me, the entire Gattuso family is not as good as Nono. You can tell this to the elders of the family."

"You won't give up even if you become enemies with the family?" Pompey looked at Caesar and asked relentlessly, "I am definitely not exaggerating. Caesar, you are the only heir of the family, but if the family finds out that you treat the family with such arrogance and contempt, and go against the family just for a woman, the family will never sympathize with you. You know the methods of the Gattuso family. It is too easy for them to control anyone they want, or to make one or two people disappear from this world. The only heir is indeed precious to them, but an heir who is completely out of control is worthless to the family, and may even be imprisoned or purged by the family."

"Then let them come!" Caesar's voice was as cold as an iceberg. He stretched out a hand and protected Nono behind him. "Nono is my bottom line. I don't care what those old guys want or what their purpose is. These have nothing to do with me. But if they really touch my bottom line, then we will go to war, even if the enemy is the entire Gattuso family!"

Caesar's tone was not only domineering, but arrogant. He was born such a proud person, but his pride was not annoying at all, otherwise Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang would not have stood up from their seats and quietly come behind Caesar.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang’s meaning was very clear. Nono was Caesar’s bottom line, and Caesar was their brother. If Caesar really became enemies with the Gattuso family because of Nono, then the Gattuso family must also regard them as enemies.

Eiry stood behind Lu Mingfei, Ye Sheng and Shude Aki also came behind the crowd. Susie didn't need much, she was holding Nono's hand the whole time... Angé stood in the corner, watching these confrontations between his best students and his old friends with great interest, as if he was just looking for trouble, and he didn't care at all whether they would really start a fight with Gattuso's family.

Pompey's gaze also wandered between Caesar and the large group of people behind him, and lingered on Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang and Eri for a long time. The atmosphere in the entire conference room was tense, silent and heavy.

After a long confrontation, Pompey suddenly laughed.

"Your mother is right." Pompey said to Caesar with a smile, and the smile on his handsome face looked like a real father for the first time.

"I told you, don't mention mom in front of me..." Before he could say the second "mom", Caesar was suddenly stunned.

Because he saw Pompey took out a small box from somewhere... a white jewelry box that was beautifully and well preserved.

Pompey placed the small box gently on the table and slowly pushed it in front of Caesar.

"Open it and take a look?" Pompey pointed to the small box.

"What is this?" Caesar frowned slightly.

"It's not mine, feel free to open it." Pompey looked at the small box, a barely perceptible nostalgia flashing across his eyes, "This is what your mother left for you, and I've kept it with me all these years."

Hearing this, Caesar gently picked up the small box. He looked at the small box with a painful, nostalgic and tender light in his eyes.

Caesar slowly opened the small box with a complicated expression and very slow movements, as if he was both expecting and afraid.

The moment the box was opened, Caesar and Nono saw what was inside at the same time. Caesar took a deep breath, while Nono covered his mouth with his hands, looking surprised and astonished.

In the small jewelry box lies a pink diamond ring. It is not particularly large, but it is exquisitely crafted and has a delicate color. The gold and silver embellishments surrounding the ring sparkle with colorful light under the light... In addition to looking very gorgeous, the most surprising thing about this ring is its quality. It is well preserved, as if it was just inlaid on the craftsman's cutting machine a second ago.

“Forever love——for Cesar”… “Forever love——for Cesar”.

The handwritten font is very beautiful, carrying a mother's love spanning more than 20 years. This sentence can have two meanings. The first is to wish Caesar to find his eternal lover, and the second is that the mother's love for Caesar will last forever.

It was written in Gullveig's handwriting.

"This is a gift from your mother. It was prepared on the day you were born, and she gave it to you now." Pompey whispered, "She didn't use the money from the Gattuso family. I don't even know where she bought this ring from. It looks like a Persian craft. Your mother knew that she would not see this day, so she left it with me a long time ago."

"Pompeii, if one day my Caesar finds a good girl whom he loves very much, please give this to him for me and tell my Caesar that his mother loves him."

Thinking of the woman again, Pompey looked at Caesar's face.

Chapter 1033 Congratulations on your successful proposal

Pompey slowly raised his head and looked at the ceiling.

Over the years, Pompey had met countless women, but he seldom remembered what women looked like. He could not even remember what the wheat-colored Latin beauty who had spent a wonderful night with him the night before looked like... He only remembered that the woman had a pair of beautiful legs, long, muscular and strong, wrapped around her waist like a python.

But more than 20 years have passed, and he still remembers the face of the woman named Gulveg, he remembers what that woman looked like... He said in his tone that Caesar inherited his handsomeness, but in fact Caesar was a lot like his mother, and he did not have so much sense of justice; the sense of responsibility and gentleness were inherited by Caesar. When Pompey saw Caesar's face, he would think of the woman on the hospital bed.

I still remember her voice. She always used words like "my Caesar", as if Caesar was some kind of precious treasure and she was afraid that someone would snatch it away from her.

Pompey looked at Caesar and Nono... Marriage, wife, it was such a heavy and distant topic, so distant that it could not be measured by time, but as far as life and death.

"Why did mother leave things here with you?" Caesar looked at Pompey with eyes full of questioning, surprise and hostility.

In Caesar's opinion, his mother and the stud father were not from the same world at all. His mother was gentle to everyone, even to such a bastard...but this bastard had never truly loved his mother. His mother stayed in Gattuso's house just for him. If she had given birth to a child of ordinary blood, the old guys in the family would definitely send her to a small island in the North Pacific to spend the rest of her life.

They say they are spending the rest of their lives in peace, but in fact they are imprisoned in disguise. This is the consistent style of the Gattuso family. Any woman who marries into the Gattuso family means that she will forever lose the ability to be independent. They are members of the Gattuso family in life, and they are waste of the Gattuso family when they are useless. Even after death, they are just a corpse of the Gattuso family. In this world, as long as you are strong enough and have absolute voice, you will not talk about freedom and democracy with others. Those old guys in the Gattuso family who claim to be gentlemen are essentially old hooligans who are worse than anyone else.

"If I told you that your mother has always loved me, you would definitely want to leave your shoe soles on my face, right?" Pompey sighed softly, "But it is true. If your mother doesn't leave this thing to me, who else can she give it to? After all, you have half of my blood in your body. I am the only person she can trust in this world."

Caesar opened his mouth but remained silent. He subconsciously wanted to refute Pompey, but he had no way to refute. Caesar wanted to deny Pompey's claim that he was the only person his mother could trust in the world, but after thinking carefully, his mother had been staying in Gattuso's house since she could remember. Who else could she trust except Pompey, her nominal husband? Those old guys in the family? It would be better to believe that Satan is kind, and falling into hell is a blessing to the world.

"I know you have a lot of things to say to me, calling me a bastard, a stud, or a beast, but I really loved your mother." Pompey shrugged at Caesar, "I'm not lying to you, otherwise why would your mother fall in love with me so wholeheartedly? Why would she love someone who doesn't love her? Then what is she trying to do? Do you think she is the same as those women out there who deliberately climb into my bed and strip me naked for status and money?"
