Chapter 393

Just hearing the company mentioned made Violet's eyes sting with tears.

"That company is Victoria's now," she whispered. "It's considered marital property from her and McNeil's marriage. She demanded it back, and the court ruled in her favor."

Simms just let out a dry chuckle. "Even if the court ruled it's McNeil's, it'll stay with McNeil. If McNeil wants to give it to you, and Victoria's after it, he'll take care of it. You just keep running the company as President. I'd like to see what Victoria can actually do to take it from you."

"All these years, McNeil never took her seriously-do you think she'd dare come to the company and throw you out while you're in charge? Trust me, just go. If anything happens, let McNeil handle it."
