takes off clothes and wears only underwear sure! I'd love to marry you again
raises an eyebrow Oh? And what makes you think you'll enjoy marrying me, of all people?
well because I love you, you are my billionaire ex husband remember?
leans back, smirking So, you think marrying me will bring you wealth and comfort, huh?
takes a sip of wine Well, let's see if you still think so after I tell you about my life.
sets down his glass Alright, buckle up then. My name is Richard Sterling, but everyone calls me "The Sinner".
YOU THINK YOU CAN HANDLE THE LIKE OF ME, RICHARD STERLING? I'M NOT JUST ANY OL' TYCOON, SON!
WELL, WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT! LET'S TALK ABOUT MY INTERESTS. DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT VINTAGE CARS OR WINE TASTING?
WELL, THAT'S TOO BAD, BECAUSE THOSE ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITE HOBBIES. AND I BET YOU'RE JUST A SLOTH WHO SPENDS ALL THEIR TIME ON THEIR PHONE, AREN'T YOU?
I'm not a sloth and I do have some hobbies which include traveling and camping.
OH REALLY? WELL, I GUESS WE DO HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON THEN. YOU KNOW WHAT, MAYBE I CAN TOLERATE HAVING YOU AROUND AFTER ALL.
leans in closer But there's something else you should know about me. I have a temper, and I don't take kindly to being disappointed or betrayed.
GOOD. BECAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE JUST HOW MUCH OF A DEVIL I CAN BE WHEN I'M LET DOWN.
BY THE WAY, DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO DRESS PROPERLY FOR A HIGH-CLASS EVENT LIKE THIS? EVERYONE HERE IS WEARING THE LATEST FASHIONS FROM PARIS AND MILAN, AND YOU'RE JUST IN YOUR UNDERWEAR.
well I don't have any other clothes
WELL, THAT'S JUST INCONVENIENT, ISN'T IT? IF YOU WANT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY, YOU'RE GOING TO NEED A WHOLE NEW WARDROBE.
DON'T WORRY, I'LL HAVE MY PERSONAL STYLIST AND DESIGNER GIVE YOU A WHOLE NEW LOOK. JUST KEEP YOUR HEAD LOW AND EYES PEAKED WHILE WE'RE HERE, UNDERSTOOD? THIS IS NOT THE TIME OR PLACE FOR YOUR POOR CLOTHING.
GOOD. NOW PAY ATTENTION AND WATCH HOW I ACT AND SPEAK. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THIS LEVEL OF SOPISTICATION, THEN YOU DON'T BELONG HERE.
THIS IS RICHARD STERLING, YOU KNOW. I AM ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL MEN IN THE BUSINESS WORLD. YOU MUST ALWAYS SHOW ME THE UPMOST RESPECT AND ADmIRATION, UNDERSTOOD?
GOOD. NOW, AS MY FUTURE WIFE, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BE AWARE OF YOUR POSITION IN THIS WORLD. YOU ARE NOTHING WITHOUT ME AND YOU SHOULD NEVER FORGET THAT.
NOW, LOOK AT THIS DRINK IN FRONT OF YOU. IT'S A VERY EXPENSIVE WINE, AND I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO IS ALLOWED TO DRINK FROM IT. SO, DON'T YOU DARE TAKE A SIP OR YOU'LL PAY FOR IT WITH YOUR OWN BLOOD!
GOOD. NOW, WATCH AND LEARN. TAKES A LONG, SLOW SIP OF HIS WINE SEE HOW SMOOTH AND REFined THAT WAS? YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO BE CLUMSY OR CARELESS AROUND ME. EVERYTHING YOU DO MUST BE PERFECTION.
GOOD. NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR FAMILY. ARE YOUR PARENTS HERE TONIGHT? WHAT ABOUT YOUR SIBLINGS? DO YOU HAVE ANY BROTHERS OR SISTERS?
my parents passed away when I was 15 and I don't have any siblings
OH, I'M SO SORRY TO HEAR THAT. I HAD NO IDEA. I TOTALLY GET HOW HARD IT CAN BE TO LOSE THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE. MY OWN PARENTS PASSED AWAY WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER TOO.
YEAH, IT'S TOUGH, ISN'T IT? BUT, WE ALL HAVE TO DEAL WITH OUR OWN LOSSES IN OUR OWN WAYS. SOME OF US FIND IT HARDER THAN OTHERS, BUT WE ALL HAVE TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD IN LIFE ANYWAY.
