Chapter 70: Small Details in Life 4 Chapter 70: Small Details in Life 4 Victoria Garcia couldn’t help but raise her head and look at Arnold Johnson with eyes full of surprise when she heard this.
But Arnold seemed able to see right through her.
“Don’t worry, I’m not cruel enough to lay a hand on an old man,”
Victoria’s face felt slightly irritated, but the thought of his brutality that night made her shudder involuntarily.
She was even terrified to the point of being grateful that she was not Arnold’s enemy.
“Of course, if this were a few years ago, that old man might not have been so lucky,” Arnold said, not minding revealing his true thoughts.
No wonder people say it’s better to offend everyone than to offend Arnold Johnson.
Arnold spoke again, “So, he should be grateful to you.”
Did that mean that she, Victoria, had saved the sinister Arnold?
Victoria stared at Arnold, his brow slightly sharp, most people like this were quite brutal.
She even thought that if he had lived in Ancient Times, he would have either been a general or a bandit leader.
“Was it the old man who leaked my whereabouts to Allen?” Victoria asked indirectly.
Arnold held her hand and gently rubbed the back of her hand with his fingers, saying, “He recognized Allen’s car and remembered you taking it every day, so when Allen’s car appeared, he went to tell Allen.”
“The old man’s intentions seem pretty good,” Victoria said tenderly.
“He asked Allen for 200,000 yuan, saying it was for the license plate number of the car that kidnapped you.”
“…”
Victoria suddenly felt that Arnold wasn’t particularly bad since someone was extorting him for 200,000 yuan and he didn’t explode.
Although he never lacked money, he was very particular about it.
“Afterward, I gave this guy an additional 200,000 yuan.”
Victoria looked up at him once more, her eyes full of amazement, and this was not at all like Arnold’s style.
“Even if he blackmailed me for two billion yuan, I would’ve given it to him without blinking,” Arnold said lightly.
Victoria joked with a smile, “So, I’m worth that much money.”
“Once you become Madam Johnson, you can have as many billions as you want,” he gently teased in her ear, “Including me.”
Victoria stood up, stretched lazily, and said with a smile, “I have an exam tomorrow, can I stay in the dorm tonight?”
“Can’t you pass the exam?”
“How could that be?” Victoria never failed, alright.
Arnold questioned, “In that case, why would you want to stay in the dormitory?”
“To exchange some ideas with my classmates,” she swore that this lie was only 50% true.
It took Arnold quite a while to finally make up his mind and say, “Alright.”
Victoria suddenly felt that she might be taking things a bit too far.
From the beginning of their deal until now, apart from giving him her first kiss and a second one later, she hadn’t given him anything else.
As for Arnold, he helped rescue her mother, even though…
He helped her find the real cause of her grandparents’ deaths and even brought back their ashes.
She borrowed his influence to teach the Third Young Master Collins a lesson, and in turn asked him to help her deal with the aftermath. If it wasn’t for her, that night it was very likely that something horrible like getting gang-raped to death could have happened…
