Facing Pierre Bonaparte's request, Jerome Bonaparte decisively adopted the strategy of diverting attention.
Jerome Bonaparte feigned concern and asked Pierre Bonaparte if the senator's salary (40,000 to 50,000 francs annually) was not enough, which prompted him to seek a job from him.
If the senator's salary was indeed insufficient, he could take a portion from his own annual salary.
"No! It's not that!" Pierre Bonaparte shook his head and candidly pleaded with Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, it's not about that! I just earnestly ask for a position to be arranged for me so that I can contribute to the Empire!
Regarding my love for the Bonaparte Clan, we are in no way inferior to that junior, Jerome Patterson!"
Give me a break! You people have the nerve to say you love the Bonaparte Clan; I see each of you is just trying to exploit the Bonaparte name to line your pockets unscrupulously! Jerome Bonaparte couldn't help but further lower his impression of his cousin.
