Chapter 539: Location 7 Chapter 539: Location 7 “Undoubtedly.

Arnold Johnson is a very gentlemanly man, for his gaze never belittles a commoner.

Indeed.

Despite countless deaths on his conscience, Arnold’s hands have seldom been stained with the blood of the innocent.

When the two men started drinking, Victoria Garcia fell silent, merely eating beside them.

Sometimes, Arnold wraps meat for Victoria.

Other times, Victoria wraps meat for Arnold.

Occasionally, Victoria would gently remind them, “Drink slowly!”

Looking at Edward Hernandez, he was quite a match when it came to drinking. After half a bottle of wine, his countenance remained unchanged.

The same was true for Arnold.

It seemed they were evenly matched in terms of alcohol tolerance.

An hour had passed, and neither man showed any intention of leaving.

In fact, Edward even ordered another bottle of Authority Country’s special white wine.

Victoria was somewhat uneasy, suggesting, “Why don’t you drink less.”

Edward, however, laughed and said, “This is the wine I ordered. I wonder whether Miss Garcia is concerned about me or Mr. Johnson?”

The teasing in his tone was a little grating to Arnold’s ears.

Victoria Garcia smiled and said, “Of course I care about both of you. Drinking too much isn’t good for your health.”

One man had just saved her life. The other was the man she loves.

She naturally didn’t want them getting carried away with a drinking competition.

“Well, in that case, Miss Garcia doesn’t need to worry. It’s rare for Mr. Johnson and I to encounter such worthy opponents, so naturally, we want to enjoy ourselves,” Hernandez said, before turning to Johnson, “Right, Mr. Johnson?”

But Arnold flatly disagreed, “No.”

Edward obviously felt awkward at that response.

But Arnold followed up, “Because I have more important things to do…”

Pulling Victoria’s hand into his own, Arnold stated, “Going home early with the one you love trumps everything else. Someday when Mr. Hernandez finds the love of his life, he will understand the joy of being a ‘wife dominator’.”

That was out-and-out boasting.

Edward was a gentleman, considerate and tolerant, and merely laughed, “It looks like I can only compete with you on drinking when either Miss Garcia or Mr. Johnson is away on a trip.”

Arnold laughed, “Okay, if there is a chance, I will drink with you.”

After exchanging farewell pleasantries, Arnold led Victoria away from the restaurant.

Edward didn’t immediately leave, instead pouring himself another drink and savoring it quietly.

Looking out the window.

Arnold wrapped an arm around Victoria, and together they climbed into a car.

Arnold, having consumed alcohol, was not the driver. Victoria was.

Even through the windowpane, Edward could clearly see Victoria’s smiling face and Arnold’s impromptu kiss to her cheek.

They shared a sweet gaze.

Indeed, Arnold seemed to be genuinely enamored with her.

Edward never imagined that the relationship between Victoria and Arnold could deepen this much so quickly.

Nevertheless.

That’s good.

Snatching the woman Arnold loved from him would undoubtedly make for an interesting and exciting escapade.

Edward refilled his own glass and continued to drink leisurely.

As he sipped, he watched Victoria and Arnold drive away.

Their car disappearing in the flow of traffic.

And Edward.

Kept gazing out the window, lost in thought, quietly sipping his drink.

Many things were floating in his mind, planning… ”
