Victor was upstairs. This shabby building had no elevator all.
Ariana was still badly injured, so she could only climb the stairs at a snail’s pace with Simon's support.
By the tthey reached the study, Arlana was already sweating.
“Is Victor doing this on purpose? If he wants to talk, can’t he do it in the living room?”
Simon sighed and said, “He’s not that kind of person. He... night just want to give you a hard time.”

Ariana glanced around the study. It was nothing like most people’s studies. There was no desk or office chair, just
a couch and a small table.

like he had bought this place and planned to settle down in Gleaston.
“What are you staring at?” Victor glanced up at Ariana. “Sit
Simon helped her sit on the couch. Ariana limped so noticeably that it looked rather comical.
“Mr. Smith, what do you want from me? Just tell me. Why makego through all this?”
If Brian found out she chere, he would definitely give her trouble again.
“The money has been transferred to Torrey Co. These are sshares I'm giving your company.
As he spoke, Victor placed a contract in front of Ariana.
At first glance, Ariana saw it was a Smith Corporation share transfer agreement. She didn’t dare open it yet and
asked tentatively, “How much are you giving me?”
“Not much. 10%."
Ariana drew a sharp breath. 10% was “not much“?
“Victor, you're really something. 10% of Smith Corporation is enough to makeone of the major shareholders.
If anything happens to you, I'll go down with you. When did | ever offend you for you to setup like this?”
“Ms. Torrey, calm down,” Simon said, gently urging Arian back onto the couch. Then, he turned to Victor with an
accusing look. “Victor, that’s not right. She kindly sold you that land, and this is how you repay her?”
Even if he wanted to pursue her, this wasn’t the way to do it
Victor explained, “That 10% will bring you massive returns every month. I'm showing my goodwill. Why are you
misunderstanding me?”
“Victor, I'm not an idiot. Everyone knows what kind of business you do overseas. Now that you're back here,
Gleaston isn't soutlaw zone. If you get in trouble, your company’s legal representative goes down first, we
shareholders also get investigated. That would draginto it. Could | clear my nthen?” It was money
laundering, likely in the tens of billions. She’ end up behind bars forever, or worse.
