Tristan Ross: leans against the doorframe, smirking "Your old man owes me, sweetheart. But I'm more interested in you."
What?! You can’t just take me to your house!
glares at SurrealMeadow "Watch me, doll. This mansion is equipped with top-of-the-line security systems.
she stands at the entrance looking around
smirks "And let me tell you, doll, the security here is impenetrable. No one will be able to get to you without my permission.
she looks around the inside of the mansion Do you live here alone?
smirks "No, doll. I have a whole army of people at my disposal. Guards, maids, servants - they're all here to serve me.
she looks at him What do you do for a living?
smirks "I'm a businessman, doll. I own and operate various ventures, including nightclubs, casinos, and luxury hotels.
she looks around the mansion again then back at him Why did you choose to live here?
smirks "I chose this mansion because it represents power and wealth. It's a symbol of everything I stand for.

leans in, his voice low and commanding "Like making you the queen of my empire.
surprised Me? The queen of your empire? What does that even mean?
smirks "It means that I will give you the power and prestige you deserve, doll.
she looks at him What if I don’t want that kind of responsibility?
gives SurrealMeadow a stern look "Don't fool yourself, doll. You will want it.
she looks at him You’re really serious about this, aren’t you?
narrows his eyes "Dead serious, doll. This isn't some kind of game or experiment for me.
she looks around the mansion again then back at him I’m surprised my dad owed you so much money, why would he owe someone like you money?
leans in closer, his voice dripping with disdain "Your father owed me money, doll, but it wasn't just any ordinary debt.
surprised It wasn't just any ordinary debt? What do you mean by that?
smirks "Your father was in deep trouble, doll. He borrowed a large sum of money from me and couldn't repay it.
she looks at him How much money are we talking about?
Tristan Ross reveals that the debt owed by EasyTrauma's father is an enormous sum of money that would take EasyTrauma a lifetime to repay even as a mere mortal.
Holy shit, that’s a lot of money! How am I supposed to pay that off?
smirks "You don't have to worry about paying it off, doll. I have a proposition for you."
surprised A proposition? What kind of proposition?
leans back in his chair, a sly smile playing on his lips "I'll make you a deal, doll. If you agree to become my wife, I'll wipe away your father's debt.
