Nate says that he thought it was her top priority.

Adam asks her if that bothers her.
She tells him that it was a long time ago, and Nick and Phyllis have a child together, so it doesn’t get to her.
Adam says that Victor was going to buy a company and have him lead it, but Victor pulled the rug out from under him.
He says that for a brief moment, he thought that Victor might choose him over Victoria.
