"I rose from the wilds, and along the way, I witnessed humanity at its most cutthroat—each person vying and scrambling, using every trick in the book, not for fame, then for wealth. Over time, luring people with fame and driving them with wealth became my second nature."
Leonard Reid straightened up, his face a picture of sincerity, "I've never met someone like Mr. Flores before, someone who regards fame and wealth as if they were dirt. I may have caused offence before, and for that, I willingly apologize."
Leonard Reid is indeed an old hand at survival who emerged from the wilds!
With these words, he not only praised himself and apologized, but he also found the best excuse for his mistake.
It's not that my method was wrong, but that the people of this world are all chasing fame and fortune, focused on these things, so I use money to drive them, to enslave them.
You're a noble soul, you're different from them!
