VS2019 Throw new gives excpetion

I'm following the book Visual Basic 2012 How to Program
I've created a very simple class :

Code:

Public Class Form1
    Dim First As Employee = New Employee
    Dim Second As Employee = New Employee
    Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        First.FirstName = "John"
        First.LastName = "Henderson"
        First.MonthlySalary = 0

        MessageBox.Show(First.MonthlySalary * 12 & " Year income")
        MessageBox.Show((First.MonthlySalary * 12) * 1.1 & " Year income with 10 % raise")

        Second.firstname = "Billy"
        Second.lastname = "The Kid"
        Second.MonthlySalary = 1500

        MessageBox.Show(Second.MonthlySalary * 12 & " Year income")
        MessageBox.Show((Second.MonthlySalary * 12) * 1.1 & " Year income with 10 % raise")
    End Sub
End Class

Code:

Public Class Employee
    Private _FirstName As String
    Private _LastName As String
    Private _MonthlySalary As Integer

    Public Sub New()
        _FirstName = "test"
        _LastName = "test"
        _MonthlySalary = 1
    End Sub

    Public Property FirstName As String
        Get
            Return _FirstName
        End Get
        Set(value As String)
            _FirstName = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property LastName As String
        Get
            Return _LastName
        End Get
        Set(value As String)
            _LastName = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property MonthlySalary As Integer
        Get
            Return _MonthlySalary
        End Get
        Set(value As Integer)
            If value <= 0 Then
                Throw New ArgumentOutOfRangeException("positive") '<_-------this one
            End If
            _MonthlySalary = value
        End Set
    End Property
End Class

If I delete the line with the comment <-- this one I get "0 year income", as expected.
But with the line I should get "positive" But I get this error message seen below :

Here is the exercise question :
9.7 (Employee Class) Create a class called Employee that includes three pieces of information as
instance variables—a first name (type String), a last name (type String) and a monthly salary (type
Integer). Your class should have a constructor that initializes the three instance variables. Provide
a property for each instance variable. The property for the monthly salary should ensure that its value remains positive—if an attempt is made to assign a negative value, throw an exception. Write an
app that demonstrates class Employee’s capabilities. Create two Employee objects and display each
object’s yearly salary. Then give each Employee a 10% raise and display each Employee’s yearly salary
again.

Is it a bug in Visual Studio don't think so. But my book explains it so it should work!
Shed some light on this one you guys !
