He should be grateful to himself for threatening others.
Geoffrey noticed Rosalie's lukewarm reaction, and seemed to understand something.
"I know you don't have a good impression of me, but I have a reason for everything I do. As a father, I naturally care about my son's happiness. But since he doesn't have a girlfriend now, even if I wanted to fulfill his wishes, I wouldn't have the opportunity.

I believe they will be well-suited for each other once they get to know each other." "Mr. Carter, you may think they will get along well after getting to know each other, but Sebastian might not feel the sway. What if he refuses? What will you do, then?" Rosalie asked. She wanted to know what consequences Sebastian would face.
"So he better not refuse." Geoffrey's voice turned a bit colder. "You can also persuade him to accept my arrangement." "Me, persuade him?" Rosalie found it absurd.
This was utterly unreasonable! She hadn't even met the woman Sebastian was supposed to marry, so on what grounds could she persuade him to marry her? Besides, even if she had met that woman, whether Sebastian wanted to marry her or not was his business. Why should she persuade him? If it were a woman Sebastian liked and he asked her for help, she would be willing to assist, like with Lily. Back then, Sebastian had asked her in the office how to pursue a girl.
She couldn't-and wouldn't-match him with a woman he didn't like.
"Yes, Rosalie. You can persuade him," Geoffrey repeated.
"Mr. Carter, have you talked to Sebastian? What if he has someone he likes...?" "So what?" Geoffrey dismissed this. "Whether he likes or loves her doesn't matter. Once he's married, it all turns sour eventually. Marriages built on love don't last long. The marriages that stand the test of tare maintained by interests, with clear goals and a clear understanding of why one is getting married." Rosalie was really speechless. She really hated such cruel and realistic words, as they were disheartening.
It seemed that apart from interests, there was nothing else in this world. According to Geoffrey, this world was devoid of genuine emotions between people. Even if there were, they wouldn't last long. If that were the case, how sad would this world be? Marriage, originally the union of two people who wanted to spend their lives together, now seemed meaningless, and even repulsive.
If it was all about interests, then why not just make deals directly? Why tarnish the institution of marriage? Two people were supposed to spend a lifettogether. If the relationship was only maintained by interests, how long could it last? One couldn't be sure that one could provide lifelong benefits to the other.

"My marriage with my wife was also a business alliance," Geoffrey said. "We're doing just fine, and there are no problems. Most of the people aroundwho married for ove have either divorced or argue daily."
"I thought you were a wise person, Mr. Carter," Rosalie said angrily. "But it turns out you only focus on the people around you." Why did speople think that those around them represented everyone in the world?
"I admire your persistence. People do need to have hope. But sometimes, one has to face reality After all, didn't you and your husband also get divorced? Didn't you marry for love?" Geoffrey said. Rosalie's hands, which were resting on her legs, clenched into fists. Yes, she and Theodore had divorced. On top of that, their marriage lasted only a year.
How could she now confidently assert what marriage should be like? She couldn't even handle her own marriage! X
