Julian: Keep your mouth shut, Chloe, or I will ruin you before the night ends.
Chloe: You don't get to threaten me anymore, Julian. Not after what you did to my father's estate.
Julian: Your father was weak, and his company belonged to Vance Enterprises the second he signed that mortgage contract.
Chloe: He trusted you with the family business! You lied to him, forged his signature on the trust fund documents, and forced him into bankruptcy!
Julian: Proven nothing in court, sweetheart. You have zero leverage here.
Chloe: I have enough to tear down your entire campaign for Senate tonight.
Julian: Try it and see what happens to your life.
The bright chandeliers reflected off the stark white marble hallway near the main ballroom. Before Chloe could take another step, Julian raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face.
Chloe: You... you actually hit me.
Julian: That was a warning. Learn your place before I destroy whatever little reputation you have left.
Victoria: Julian, darling! What is taking so long? The board members and news crews are waiting for your speech!
Chloe: Touch me again... and you lose everything.
