I ran for president with scumbag money

It was windy and windy outside, and the atmosphere in the room was dull. The five people sat down with distinct factions, and there was a moment of silence.

"Mr. Morton, I'm so sorry that I invited you here, but let you encounter such an embarrassing thing." Edith said apologetically.

He didn't know what method Oscar used to bring Leon here, if he knew, he would feel guilty again.

"It's quite novel." Leon smiled frankly, "If what you say next is worthy of my adventure, then my trip is not in vain."

Edith nodded, picked up the silver teapot on the coffee table, and poured a cup of tea for the guests.

After Naita En came, his mind seemed much clearer than before, his movements were much smoother, his gestures were very elegant, coupled with a gentle and handsome face, it was indeed a visual enjoyment at the level of an actor.

"Mr. Zhou looks better in private than on TV." Leon was never stingy with compliments, especially if he could get closer.

Edith smiled slightly, her black eyes were still full of melancholy: "The one who used a knife."

"Ah?" Leon didn't realize what he was saying for a while.

"Every line is straight." Edith pointed to her face, smiling without showing her teeth, "So I dare not laugh exaggeratedly every day, for fear of losing my shape."

"When I was an actor..."

"No," Edith categorically denied, her tone still soft and casual, "The previous face was too unflattering, no one liked to see it, so it was completely changed—it wasn't my money anyway."

Leon felt that he couldn't keep up with the actor's thinking. From Oscar to James to Edith, none of the three people's thinking seemed "normal". .

"Before Nathan came, you said you wanted to discuss cooperation with me?" Leon decided to bring the topic back to the right track.

Edith looked at him calmly, without the slightest embarrassment that she had just been intimate with Nathan: "Yes."

"It seems that Netann's 'wife' is not you?" Leon asked suspiciously, "You two..."

Edith put one hand on the table, her fingers were long and clean, and she wore a simple diamond ring on her ring finger.

He looked at the shiny carat diamond ring under the light, and said gently: "That one is just a card."

"The cards?"

"Naita En only gave her a title. She is very high-profile and attracts everyone's attention to her, but in fact..." Edith smiled, without any pride or complacency, but a little self-deprecating, "He and I were secretly married five years ago."

"five years ago……"

It happened to be the year that state A legalized gay marriage.

"Same-sex marriage is legal in state A, why hide the marriage?" Leon raised his eyebrows, puzzled.

"What Netaen should care about is not whether the marriage is legal or not, but what the people in power in the family have to say." Edith replied very directly, "It is the wish of the old man for the three generations to live together. No matter how powerful Huo was when he was young Nor can it be exempt.”

Then why are you looking for me?I can't help you have a baby.Leon thought speechlessly, what is this all about?

He had no interest in Nathan's love history.

From a campaign point of view, this is not enough to pose a threat to Netann.

People in this country are terribly tolerant of the capitalists' love life. Netaen can still be crowned as the "Lovely Overlord" in the state of A. Don't expect one more "same/wife" to cause damage to his career. What a hit.

Of course, if you can find the woman to sue him, maybe you can deal some blows to him on the moral level.

"I'm not helping others to be jealous." Leon didn't bother to talk about it, and said directly, "This is a private matter of the Hawke family."

Edith shook her head: "I'm not jealous."

He leaned slightly, and continued: "Naytan wants to 'legalize surrogacy' in State A."

"Uh?"

"No matter how legal gay marriage is, it won't solve the problem of children," Edith said unhurriedly. "Nitan has a lot of money, and it is only a matter of time before a law is passed. He has this idea recently."

"If you want a child, you can adopt it..."

"Adoption is not as good as biological, 'It's impossible to love an adopted child as you love your own child', I forgot in which movie I saw this line. Unfortunately, Naita En also has such thoughts." Edith said disapprovingly.

"Ok?"

"What's more unfortunate is that this idea is currently supported by many people. They believe that legal surrogacy is better than human/population/buying/selling and same/wife."

"Crazy!" Leon blurted out, "What's the difference between this and legalizing drug smoking in order to limit drug trafficking?"

The stupidest thing Leon had ever heard was that in order to control the number of AIDS patients, a certain country standardized drug smoking and set up fixed "injection points" in every city.

So far he has not understood the magical logic and connection.

"The people who support this point of view are all men, right?" Leon didn't discriminate against his compatriots, but it was really hard for him to imagine that there would be women...

"There are also some women."

It's hard to imagine... Fuck! ?

"Why? Are they crazy?"

"It's more about financial pressure," Edith said, "Many people think that as long as surrogacy is voluntary, it's fine, and they prefer to have children from wealthy families.

"State A's economy is under great pressure. It is really difficult for many people to get married and have children. The marriage rate has dropped steadily in the past ten years. Many people want to have children, but they don't want to take on the burden of forming a family.

"So some people think that it's okay to give rich people surrogacy, so that they can have offspring and don't have to worry about the future of their children. It can also help people who want children to achieve their wishes, such as infertile people or people in gay marriages. .”

Edith said, looking around on the sofa, her face gradually full of doubts, but she didn't know what she was looking for.

Leon's first reaction was: Could it be that he was worried that Naitan had installed a monitor in the house?

It turns out that he thought too much.

At this time, Oscar reminded Edith from the side: "Check to see if your mobile phone has fallen into the crack of the sofa."

Edith showed an embarrassed smile, stuffed her jade-like hand into the crack of the sofa, slid down a long crack, and took out a silver-white mobile phone—he just forgot where it was.

The mobile phone is very new, with a large high-definition screen, and the price is not cheap.

Edith turned on the phone and clicked on a video in the folder. A woman whose image was blurred appeared on it, and only the sound continued to play:

"...friends, we can imagine two futures: one is that our children born after free marriage, they are a long way behind other peers at the starting line from birth, and we have to work hard to raise them and prevent them Polluted by the surrounding environment, when they grow up, no matter how hard they try, they will still face a future of [-] to [-] with no future. Our dilemma and pain will repeat itself to them.

"Also, let's think about it, let's not talk about anything else, just because I look like this, I definitely want to find a handsome guy to purify my genes?" (There is a burst of laughter) But in reality, how can there be so many handsome guys? Let's find it, shall we? (Laughter again)

"The other is the child born after our surrogacy. Since it is a surrogate, the two parties can communicate equally if they have the intention. We will definitely strictly screen the surrogate according to our own wishes, from the aspects of economy, family atmosphere, health status, and appearance. Considering various factors, select the relatively best demanders, right? Coupled with the genetic review, in this way, we can get better offspring, and they can also satisfy the desire for children, killing two birds with one stone, and achieving mutual benefit win the situation.

"In the future, the prejudiced term 'surrogacy' will no longer exist, and will be replaced by the correct concept of 'single birth', so that each of us can reasonably use our own reproductive rights and help those who are unable to have children but long to be mothers." Women, help gay couples who want to have children, we're not promoting surrogacy, we're just trying to legitimize it..."

"Stop, stop quickly." Leon raised his hand to cover his ears, wishing he could tremble under the malice of the sand sculpture world, "Stop, talk properly, don't play the video!"

He couldn't take it.

Edith turned off the video, and the voice that tormented Leon finally disappeared.

Leon let out a long sigh of relief, rubbed his brows, and fell silent for a while.

"Mr. Morton, I have been following your campaign and have listened to all your speeches," Edith still looked at him politely, "If I read correctly, you are different from them, I hope we can cooperate Win-win, of course, not such an absurd win-win."

Understood, this is Edith's request, which obviously runs counter to Naitan.

Leon looked at him and said, "I only have one question."

"Please say."

"Naytan's proposal is good for you, right?" Leon bluntly said, "Once he has an heir, your identity can also be aboveboard. From your standpoint, why stop this matter?"

Edith's face showed hesitation.

He lowered his head, turned on the phone, rummaged through the folder, and quickly found a photo. After zooming in, he turned it over to show Leon.

In the photo, is a beautiful long-haired girl, wearing a white dress, carrying a basket, standing in a field of purple flowers.

She tilted her head and smiled at the camera with two deep dimples.

Edith is also in the photo, holding her shoulders, smiling at the camera, looking like a very intimate couple.

"This is……?"

"My girlfriend from college." Edith said, her gaze resting on the photo for a long time, "Now, she is Naita'n's 'card lover'."

He didn't continue talking, but Leon was able to make up the whole story just by looking at the photos and the information he got.

"Excuse me, can you show me the picture?" Binny said to Edith, holding out a hand.

Edith puts the phone in his hand.

Binny looked carefully at the photo, then at Edith's face, and asked, "When did you have plastic surgery?"

"Five years ago, after meeting Nathan." Edith guessed that she didn't expect the other party to ask this question, so she answered in a daze.

"Oh, I really didn't see it." Binny returned the phone, I don't know if it was out of courtesy or sincere praise, "Very beautiful girl."

"Yes, I'm sorry for her..." Edith sighed.
