Stein called out, and Victoria followed him into the exhibition hall.

Whenever Stein was out on business, he always drew a crowd. Tagging along with him, Victoria couldn't help but attract attention too.

"Of course, of course-Ms. Campbell, we'll be sure to look after you."

Victoria couldn't help herself. "I'm here with my company, no need to trouble yourselves."

She made a quick escape. Stein watched her retreat with his usual calm. "Let her go," he said lightly.
