Getting a grip of herself, she answered , Mr.

Kingsman , Goldfront Bay is only worth 500 million dollars .

Brian faked the information to lure you into taking the bait and making you lose money .

Does that mean you agree to the bet ? Agreeing is one thing , Believing you is another .

And I never said I believed you .

You … Ms.

Torrey , your college results dont seem to be convincing enough .

Also , I know that you can do anything it takes to please Brian and get back on his good side .
