Summary
The thing about being an incredibly rich and powerful businessman, such as George Russell was, was that people were very hesitant to tell you when you were embarking on something that was a bad idea. [...] Unluckily, sometimes you were having such a deeply-entrenched argument with that person, so you weren't very likely to listen to them, or anybody else who cared to share an opinion on the situation. Sometimes you were so furious every time you even so much as thought about that person that you had cared for that the only thing you wanted to do was win and be done with the whole blasted situation.
Anyway, all that was to say, George Russell was getting divorced.
