Answer: b)

Explanation:

They both have the inherent evil of wealth and success and they are both experience it. Why? Because this girl who is a partner of George is talking only about his wealth, not about feelings that she have for him and that is the evil of wealth.

Other evil of wealth and success is showing trough another character, Joe L. V. that is clearly a wealthy person that is good looking. He has everything in his life, including nice suits, pretty white house but the evil thing that he does is cheating.
