Selina rolled her eyes. “All work and no play makes Victor a very dull boy,” she said loftily. “Besides, you should just trust me. I have not led you astray yet, but you’re still so apprehensive all the time. Don’t be, darling, I’m much smarter than you give me credit for. I’m much smarter than any man gives me credit for.” She gestured vaguely at him. “I’m like the royalty of these streets, all of you should be bowing down to me, anyway.”
“Very funny.” Victor sighs. “You know why I work so much, Selina.” Victor has so much he needs to do, so much work and progress to be made, but he follows along with Selina anyway, trusting that what she’s doing is for a reason of some sort. “I’m not apprehensive, Selina - I just know time isn’t on our side. I don’t doubt you in the slightest.” The truth is, Victor doesn’t know why she bothers with him. He’s not the type of person who normally catches the eye of anyone like Selina, and he can’t help but wonder why she bothers with him. “I don’t think I am one for bowing. Are you going to share this plan of fun with me?”
