And then dismissed it as him preparing to convince her that she actually shouldn't ignore it.
"No, no, everything is fine, he was just giving me numbers, my darling," Liliana said. "He wanted to make sure that I had numbers separate from the ones you're providing me, so that should I ever decide to audit the books, I know what they should be, according to his own records. But rather than just stiffly informing me that's what it was, or lightly hinting that it would be a good idea for me to do so, he mentioned that it was standard procedure anytime that there was a third party involved, and that he doubted the necessity, but that it was better to always be sure. From Kristoff, that's practically him opening his arms and declaring you his son. Am I going to have to worry about him trying to marry you off to one of his great-great-great grandchildren to get you into the firm? I'm not afraid to fight a vampire over you, my darling. Olivia and I have had several tiffs about you already."
