Chapter 262: Romantic things 3 Chapter 262: Romantic things 3 Upon the antique vase falling and making a heavy sound, the shop owner looked at the two with a terrified expression.

Victoria sensed that trouble was brewing.

Arnold held her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here with you!”

After all, in some countries, if they encountered a malicious shopkeeper, they would be in for quite the rip-off.

Arnold went ahead and spoke in French with the shop owner.

Victoria didn’t know what they were talking about, but she could see that the middle-aged shop owner’s attitude was very unfriendly.

Arnold shook his head as he spoke.

Obviously, he wasn’t satisfied with the price the shop owner quoted.

The shop owner was even angrier.

Arnold, ever-alert, grabbed Victoria’s hand and started running outside.

Sure enough, they hadn’t run 100 meters out when a group of people wielding clubs began chasing them.

To say Victoria wasn’t scared would be a lie.

To say she was petrified would be an overstatement.

For Arnold, money was never a problem.

“How much money did the sinister shop owner ask you for?” Victoria shouted while running.

Arnold nonchalantly replied, “Not much, just ten million!”

“What the hell!” Victoria cursed, “He’s such a rip-off!”

“Ten million euros!”

“What the hell!” Victoria cursed again, “Let’s just make a run for it!”

“Alright, but don’t slow me down!” Arnold held her hand without leaving any gap, holding Victoria’s hand to the point it was a little painful.

“You’re holding me too tightly, loosen your grip a bit!”

“No way! If they catch you, I’ll have to pay not only ten million, but a hundred million euros! For the sake of ten million euros, just bear with it!” Arnold laughed and advised.

“They’re over there, catch them!”

Although Victoria didn’t understand French, she had a basic judgment that they had been discovered and were being pursued.

“Arnold, hold me even tighter! For the sake of ten million euros, I’ll give it my all!” Victoria shouted loudly.

Such a chase was tiring while at the same time exhilarating.

The wind blew her long skirt, and Arnold led the way, holding her hand tightly.

Suddenly, she was not afraid.

Yes, with Arnold there, what had she to fear!

However, her newfound sense of security vanished upon turning her head back.

“Arnold, what should we do?” Victoria screamed, “There are more people coming from the left!”

“Seems like my choice of outfit today was too flashy. The shop owner must have decided I’m rich and wanted to swindle a huge sum of money!”

Upon hearing Arnold’s explanation, Victoria checked his outfit and almost tripped upon seeing its extravagance.

“This is a limited edition custom-made LUION! They make clothes only for the select few at the top of the pyramid!” Arnold held her hand even tighter, fearing she might stumble.

“Why would you wear such fancy clothes!” Victoria couldn’t help but complain loudly.

“…”

Victoria suddenly screamed, “Ah!”

Before her scream could land, she fell to the ground, as someone had struck her with something.

“Damn it!” Arnold cursed, then asked Victoria with concern, “How are you?”

Their five pursuers had not yet fallen behind, and his eyes were filled with cold fury as he stared at them…
