The book of love

Years have gone by. Oliver is still single. He often meets Phil (his father-in-law) and they do different things together. Phil’s favourite topic of conversation is to convince Oliver to remarry assoon as possible. But he is the only social contact he really has (apart from his parents with whom he had reconciled). Business is going well.
Then he meets a girl called Joanna Stein, but there isno real closer relationship developing between them.
Jogging through the park he later gets to know Marcie Binnendale (rich owner of a big clothing shop chain) and there is enormous passion coming upby the time. They begin to love each other. Oliver’s feelings have come back. He feels great and never wants to lose Marcie. The couple spends very much time together (they have different excursions,trips, sports, dinners, romantic evenings…). Everything seems splendid. But then well-known differences and problems happen between them, which do not come up immediately but develop and slowly andget more important by the time: Marcie is very busy and Oliver is very busy. She has to travel all around the world to present her collections. So they often cannot see each other for a week or evenmore, which is not too beneficial for their love.
On top of it Oliver learns (during a common travel to Hong Kong) that the Binnendales’ purveyors (which are employed by Marcie) employ very youngchildren (and influence them to work). The adult workers agree upon sharing the pay if they all may work. All this is called sweatshop labour. Oliver - years ago - (still at Harvard) had learned that theBarretts’ money came from sweatshop labour, too (since then he had dissociated with the Barretts’ business). Because of this he separates (very painfully: "You are a cold and heartless bitch") fromMarcie (as she finds this business practice normal: "Everyone does it.")
In the end Oliver becomes senior partner in his father’s company as his father is going to retire. He comes to the conclusion...
