She was just logically breaking down the facts and hoping that Tom could be rational, but she simply underestimated Tom's wild ambition. "Hahahaha!!!" Tom suddenly reared his head and laughed out loud. Then, he suddenly leveled a sinister glare at Renee and demanded, "Did you really think I was just interested in becoming an Ambrossian prince? Oh, you really underestimated me… What I want is every Ambrosian mineral vein, understand?"

Tom just said, ignoring Tudd, who had reached out his hand for a handshake. “Right now?,” Damon asked, surprised at Tom's treatment of Tudd. “Right now,” he said. “You do not seem to take in to me,” Tudd said, smiling.

'And Mark,' Tom said when they parted, his voice dripping disdain. 'He was the same shit to me. I mean, look at me—handsomer, buffer, better in every way. But girls always picked him. What was it? His fake nice-guy act? The way he'd play the underdog? I never got it. Ladies swarmed him like flies on shit.' 'Because he was kind,' I whispered, voice breaking. 'Real. Not like you.'
