There was a need to officially become his adopted son.--- Regardless of
how contented I was to be the "son of a man whom the family was indebted and
were now looking after I would never be able to "take" his fortune.
I had to call him "Father
Of course, I did call him that. But I did not love George Joestar as a father.
Dario Brando was a hopeless low-life of a man with no redeeming feature which I

And so, unhesitatingly, with only the feeling that it was necessary, I

There was both hatred and anger as well.
But I needed an excuse.
