Time flies by and Saturday is here in the blink of an eye.
The daughter of godfather Vito Corleone, Connie Corleone, is getting married today.
The wedding took place at Vito Corleone's home.
It's so beautiful here, with fountains, sculptures, independent gardens, and a huge parking lot. It doesn't feel like a house, but more like a beautiful castle.
In a place like New York, even if it's not in the heart of the city, this is still a very over-the-top house.
But it was different from the laughter outside.
In the office of the four-story villa where the family lives, huge curtains block most of the sunlight.
Filling the room with a cold and chilling atmosphere.
Wearing a white shirt with a black suit, there are red flowers as bright as blood on the chest.
Thin lower lip.
Godfather Corleone, who was sitting at his desk, was holding a tabby cat in his hand. His stern expression was in stark contrast to the naughty cat.
Opposite the Godfather, there is a mahogany chair in the middle of the empty hall.
This chair looks very comfortable, the only problem is that it’s in the wrong position!
The surroundings were so empty, it felt like I was being interrogated.
Borrassa, Italian immigrant.
After working hard in the United States for thirty years, he has lost his youthful thick black hair.
Severe baldness bothered him.
But it was all worth it, even though I lost my hair.
But in exchange for a beautiful house, a beautiful wife, and a lovely daughter.
He was a successful businessman, successful and decent.
Walking on the street, even if everyone doesn't know him, they will respect this successful Italian businessman.
But sitting in front of Godfather Corleone at this moment, this old Italian in his fifties burst into tears. He painfully told his experience:
"I believe in the United States. The United States has given me wealth..."
"I raised my daughter the American way. I gave her freedom, but I also told her never to bring shame to her family..."
"She has a boyfriend, but he's not Italian..."
"She went to the movies with him, but came back very late, and I didn't say anything..."
"Two months ago he and another boy took her for a drive and they forced her to drink whiskey and then they tried to take advantage of her!"
"She resisted and kept her reputation, so they beat her severely."
"When I got to the hospital, her nose was broken and her jaw was shattered and held in place with wires."
"Although she was in pain, she didn't cry, but I did."
"Why? Why am I crying?"
"I saw her as a treasure, a beautiful girl, and now she can't be any more beautiful."
Borassa choked up and told how the two little American bastards bullied her strong and beautiful daughter.
The story is not complicated.
But the godfather listened carefully to what the old Italian had to say.
Seeing the pain in the other person's face with tears streaming down his face.
One hand pinched the kitten's neck, and the other hand gestured to the family members nearby.
Tom is the family lawyer, the adopted son of Vito Corleone, and one of the valuable think tanks in this big family.
He skillfully poured a small glass of white wine for the other party.
Borasa took it gratefully, and the pain in his heart made him drink the wine in one gulp.
But alcohol did not extinguish the depression in his heart, but made him even more angry:
"I went to the police for help like a law-abiding American..."
"The two boys were also punished and the judge sentenced them to three years in prison, but suspended."
“Probation, I can’t believe it!
"They were fine that day and I was standing in the courtroom like a fool and those two bastards were smiling at me."
"So my wife said that if we want justice, we have to go to Mr. Corleone."
A good story must have a beginning and an end.
Corleone liked the previous story.
Although she lives in the United States, a girl with Italian character is sent to the hospital by two rude American beasts in order to protect her chastity.
Of course, there are some minor flaws, such as coming home late from the movie.
But this does not affect the quality of the story.
And her father, the old-school Italian businessman, found herself.
Hope to get his help.
But Vito Corleone didn't like the rest of the story.
The moment when the vital neck skin is released?
The kitten in Corleone's hand came to life.
"Why did you go to the police first? Why didn't you come to me first?"
There was a flash of hatred in Borassa's eyes.
He is a very successful businessman and has even managed to join the upper class.
But in this capital country, money cannot mean everything.
The background of the two boys who injured their daughters was not simple.
Forcing a young girl to have sex with two people together.
After being refused, the two men took the young girl to the hospital and smashed her nose and chin.
For such a bad thing, the other party was only sentenced to three years of probation.
Just pay a fine and walk away.
This piece of information is enough to explain a lot of problems.
Bolaza was angry because he knew he couldn't play with the parents of these two little American bastards.
But the sight of his daughter lying in the hospital made the old father feel heartbroken.
So he found Vito Corleone, with the flames of revenge burning in his eyes:
"What do you need me to do? As long as you are willing to do this for me."
The godfather was still teasing the cat in his arms, looking careless:
"help you with what?"
Borassa took a deep breath.
This old-school Italian businessman has a very fierce expression.
He leaned into his godfather's ear and spoke out the revenge he wanted to see.
But what Boraza didn't expect was this.
Even though he was ready to be stabbed, Godfather Vito Corleone on the other side still shook his head.
He looked at the Italian businessman in front of him indifferently:
"I can't do it."
Borassa was anxious, he wanted to avenge his daughter.
But with his strength, this is almost impossible.
Borraza would not have found Godfather Corleone if he had not had to.
Because he knows what business the other party is running.
For a legitimate businessman like him, he would not come if he was not really forced to do anything.
At this moment, facing the godfather's rejection, Borassa became anxious and subconsciously said:
"I can give you whatever you want."
Borasa is over fifty.
He only has one daughter.
For this old father, his daughter is everything to him!
It's just for Borassa who still hasn't figured it out yet.
Godfather Corleone frowned, and his expression became cold:
“We have known each other for many years, and this is the first time you have come to me for help.
I don’t even remember the last time you invited me to your house for coffee.
Besides, my wife is the godmother of your only daughter. Frankly speaking, you have never wanted my friendship, and you are afraid of owing me a favor. "
If Big Jack were here, he would be surprised.
The look on Godfather Corleone’s face at this moment.
The Bell who was talking to him in his office was almost exactly the same.
The eyes of both parties revealed a kind of disregard for life.
But the difference is that this disregard is restrained.
Therefore, the way of expression of emotions is implicit and powerfully confusing.
Only when you really look into these eyes can you understand what the other person is thinking at the moment.
Bolaza is not a fool.
A fool, even if he comes from Italy, will not become a successful businessman.
But with his daughter lying on the hospital bed and his godfather's rejection, he was at a loss and could only stammer out:
"I...I...just don't want to get involved."
The pleasant game of teasing the cat was over, and Godfather Corleone put the cat down.
After breaking away from the godfather's teasing.
As if sensing the man's danger, the tabby cat fled away.
Father Corleone paid no attention.
Because now he has more interesting prey.
Getting up, Godfather Corleone whispered the other person's name:
"Borasa, Borassa."
"I understand that you made a fortune in America.
Business is doing well, life is good, you have the police and the law to protect you, you don't need friends like me. "
As he spoke, Godfather Corleone, who was wearing a black suit and a blood-red rose on his chest, showed a hint of self-mockery:
"But you come to me now and say—"
"Sir Corleone, please help me bring justice."
"You have no respect for me. You don't regard me as a friend. You don't even want to call me godfather."
