Chapter 1008 - The Man Is Not Interested In Money (1/2)

When that happened, then, Rose would know that Rune really loved her so much that he was willing to be a poor man to win her heart.

She would remember that Rune only did that because a few weeks ago Rose had insisted on marrying only a poor man.

”Mom.. don't scare Rune, please...” said Rose, finally interceding for the two of them. The girl cleared her throat and glanced at Rune.

”I've known Rune very well all this time and I know that he's not a man who likes to take advantage of women. He won't leech off my wealth. He's a man who is not interested in money.”

Duchess Fournier looked astonished at Rose's words. ”He doesn't like money? Is there such a person?”

”Yes,” said Rose with a chuckle. ”This man is very smart and he had a lot of opportunities to earn a lot of money, but he didn't pursue them.”

”How is that possible?” asked Duchess Fournier again. This time she seemed even more interested. In all her life, she had never met anyone who said they didn't like money.

”Ahem ... Rune actually has some amazing formulas for medicine. I've tried his hangover medicine myself. In less than five minutes, my headaches disappeared. He also has a variety of other drugs formula. I told him that many pharmaceutical companies are willing to pay a fortune for his invention. But he wasn't interested. ”

When she heard Rose's explanation, Duchess Fournier became very impressed. But the look on her face also seemed to be filled with a confused expression.

”So, is Rune actually a fixer or a scientist? How can he make medicine?” asked Duchess Fournier in puzzlement.

”I don't know ... I'm also confused .. hahaha,” Rose replied with a hearty laugh. ”I think he does whatever he wants. Anyway, Rune is very clever and he has a lot of potentials. But one thing is for sure, he doesn't like money. So, Mom, you don't have to worry that he will leech on me or if he is in it for the money.”

Rose's words were blunt, but they were on point. Duchess Fournier was worried that her daughter would be taken advantage of by a handsome man just because of her wealth.

Even though Rose was a very beautiful and smart girl, it was possible that there are men who did not value her for her worth and only wanted to be with her for the sake of getting her family's wealth.

If that's the case, which parent wouldn't worry? After they were gone and their wealth was drained, then what would happen to Rose?

Duchess Fournier did not want her daughter to suffer. That was all. She turned to Rune and looked at the man intently, trying to confirm the truth on Rose's words.

Was it true that this guy didn't like money? This could be good and bad at the same time, she thought.
