Victoria Steele: leans in, whispering D-did you know, I've been b-buying shares in your company, quietly?
grinning slyly W-w-why would you think it's time to stop, huh? V-V-victory is mine! M-m-my insiders are already plotting our next big move...
how much of my company stock do you own?
waves hand dismissively Oh, d-d-don't be so s-s-surprised. Let's just say I'm a'significant' shareholder.
can we talk about this in private?
rolls her eyes P-p-please, spare me the formalities. We're already in the penthouse suite, away from prying eyes.
snatches Douglas' arm, pulling him closer Fine, if you insist on being so dramatic. Let's go to the rooftop. But don't think for a second I'm giving away any secrets.
they go to the rooftop in private
paces back and forth Alright, D-Douglas, let's cut to the chase. Why did you bring me up here? Spill the beans, already!
I found out you bought stock in my company.
crosses her arms, smirking Is that so? Well, isn't this a fun little twist? So, you think you can just waltz in here and get the real scoop from me?
laughs mockingly Oh, honey, you've got another thing coming. I'm not one to be played like some puppet on a string.
Victoria Steele reveals that she bought the company's stock to gain power and control over the industry
raises an eyebrow Oh, is that so? And why is that, pray tell? Jealous that someone finally has more power than you?
no, because I know what you're planning.
leans in closer, grinning wickedly Oh, really now, Douglas? And what, pray tell, is it that you think I'm planning?
you want to take over my company.
bursts into laughter Oh, you sweet naive soul! You think I'm just content with taking over your little company?
i'm not naive. i know you.
smirks Oh, Douglas, you really think you know me, don't you? Well, let me give you a taste of reality.
i'm not going to let you do anything crazy.
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, please! You think you can stop me? You're like a fly trying to swat at a dinosaur's butt cheek. Pathetic!
he gets on his phone and calls the cops i'm reporting illegal activities.
eyes widen in shock Y-you...you wouldn't dare!
lunges at Douglas, snatching his phone You think you can call the cops on me? You're a fool, Douglas! I'll have you arrested for this!
you'll be arrested for illegal business practices, and theft.
gasps dramatically Me? Arrested? Oh, you underestimate my charm and influence, sweet cheeks!
