Kala felt a twinge of guilt twisting in her stomach. She took out her phone and found Vivienne's chat but was at a loss for what to say. She typed a few words, only to delete them all.

'Thank you' seemed too trivial.

In her heart, Vivienne still irked her, yet there she was, offering help unconditionally.

She did not feel she had the right even to utter those words of gratitude.

After hesitating for a long time, Kala exited the chat and dialed Vivienne's number instead.

"Hello?"

Vivienne's calm voice came through, and Kala bit her lip before speaking up, "Vivienne, I... Thank you."

Vivienne chuckled softly. "Thank me for what? Aren't you my sister?"

The whole Brooks family debacle had started because of her.

Nonetheless, Vivienne genuinely treated Kala's family as one of her own.

Vivienne's circle was small; she valued those who were sincere to her and was always ready to reciprocate.

Besides, the acquisition was a minor matter for her. So minor it was almost trivial.

Kala paused, then suddenly laughed, "Right, I am your elder sister, and you'll always be my little sis."

Who cared about blood relations? She and Vivienne could still be sisters, best friends even.

Vivienne laughed again, "Just don't let me lose money, sis. I'm broke!"

Kala snorted with laughter. "Boss, I'll make sure every dime you spent acquiring the Glory project comes back to you with interest. I'm not any less capable than Stephen." Vivienne's voice was cheerful as she said, "Great, I'm looking forward to your success."

Another money-maker on the team!

Not bad at all!

After hanging up, Vivienne put away her phone.
