Chapter 143: The Necessity of Marriage(1/3)
among America's elite.
Marriage is a very common thing that can even be taken for granted.
Like a few months ago, at the Hilton family banquet.
Barry Hilton, the second generation of the Hilton family.
He had once wanted to introduce his granddaughter Paris to Abel, hoping to achieve a marriage.
It’s just that Abel wasn’t interested at the time, and Paris didn’t take it seriously either.
The two people did not have any interaction, which dispelled Barry Hilton's idea.
Even David Mellon,
Although this guy is not married, he keeps saying that he is single.
But Abel knew that David actually had a fiancée.
David's fiancée comes from a relatively remote branch of the mg family.
The marriage was arranged by each other's fathers when the two were in their teens.
This is also the reason why Abel doesn't want to fall out with Morgenthau directly.
The Morgenthau family, backed by mg, can be said to be deeply rooted in New York.
Otherwise, why would Kennedy become president and be brothers with Robert?
David is 33 years old and has been engaged for more than ten years.
But not married yet.
A situation like his is the most common among the American elite.
David Mellon is now talking to Abel about whether Abel is interested in Amanda Hearst.
In fact, it is hinting at this aspect of Abel.
The Hearst family is just one media giant in the United States.
But the Hearst family has been rooted in Los Angeles and New York for many years and has huge influence in these two places.
In David's opinion.
If Abel marries the Hearst family, he will get a lot of help in these two places.
In addition, David was not very clear about Abel's family and what was going on in Texas.
David saw again how Abel liked to play with Hollywood and the media.
Out of the kindness of friends and the position of Smith Capital.
David felt that if Abel were to marry into the Hearst family.
It can be said that it is a good win-win choice.
In this way, Abel can take into account the common development in the two fields of finance and media.
The Hearst family still has a very good influence in these two aspects.
Abel didn't know what David meant at first.
After the chat started, he immediately understood David Mellon's intention.
"Okay. I understand what you mean." He looked at David and said:
"Come on, Amanda is only 16, 16! Do you think I am that kind of person?"
What he said was righteous, but he received a look of disdain from David.
There is also a long sentence: "I remember Miss Anne Hathaway, before she met someone, she was not even seventeen years old."
"Forehead"
Abel was speechless.
"Okay. Let's not discuss this issue. Anyway, I don't have that kind of interest in Amanda Hearst for the time being."
"And..." he said to David: "I am a non-marriage person. I think marriage is boring."
"If you don't get married, you can live just as happily as if you were married. After getting married, you might live an unhappy life. So it's not necessarily that I won't get married in this life."
David Mellon frowned: "Are you serious?"
In the United States, there are not many super-rich people who never get married.
Or they got married but never remarried after the divorce.
But this kind of people are not in the mainstream among American wealthy people.
The rich and elite in the United States are still relatively conservative and puritanical.
People in this class take marriage very seriously.
In this class, the so-called non-marriageists are pure aliens.
Virtue of birth
Abel of Texas actually understood this.
After all, the Smith family is considered an elite family in Texas.
But from the bottom of his heart, he really never thought about getting married in his life.
The world is so big and the world is so beautiful.
There are so many girls with such good figures.
Why must he be tied to a tree?
Americans can tolerate an unmarried person who is a playboy and has countless girlfriends.
But if this person is married and still acts like this.
In the mainstream perception of the United States, such people are scum, and even the U.S. government is embarrassed to praise them.
This alone made Abel give up the idea of getting married.
unless
Unless he gets tired of playing in the future or his body becomes useless.
I guess I'll have the idea of getting married.
It's just what he thinks.
With the virtue of my current body.
Maybe this will never happen in this life.
Then not getting married may be the best choice.
"Let's not talk about this problem. I am only twenty years old this year, and you are a thirty-three-year-old old guy."
Abel glanced at David Mellon with disdain.
"Even you, an old guy, haven't gotten married yet. Why should I, a little kid, consider getting married?"
"!"
David came up with a national curse most often shouted by Americans, but he was speechless.
Because what Abel said is right, Abel is only a little over twenty years old now.
At this age in the United States, you are not even officially an adult yet, so you cannot drink and buy alcohol openly.
Discuss this issue with him at his age.
David felt that he was worrying too much.
David thought that maybe he would wait until Abel was older.
The more stable your xinxing is, the more your thoughts will change.
"Okay. That's it." David Mellon shook his head and said, "Then I'm going out to prepare the cocktail list."
Abel made an OK gesture, and David nodded and turned to leave.
After David left.
Abel was alone in the office and felt a little bored.
He turned on the computer on his desk.
The configuration of the computer is Ben3 hard drive, 128m memory, 693 chipset motherboard, 40x optical drive, floppy drive, graphics card).
The monitor is a big butt 1r.
This configuration is now the most mainstream and advanced.
But for Abel, a reborn man, it was too backward.
This is also the reason why Abel loved playing games before he was reborn, but rarely played them after he was reborn.
