Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 553 - 553 Its possible

Chapter 553: It’s possible Chapter 553: It’s possible Of course, the primary objective was to keep an eye on any unsuitable men trying to get close or harbor ill intentions towards Victoria Garcia.

However, Francis Davis was by no means a bad guy; he was just an old acquaintance of General Garcia. Under such circumstances, she found it trivial to report this.

At the same time, Candy Foster couldn’t help but wonder: How did Arnold Johnson find out about what happened at lunchtime?

The question had been bothering Candy for quite a while.

Arnold Johnson called Victoria again.

“I’ll pick you up from work this evening,” he said straightforwardly.

Victoria, puzzled, said, “Didn’t you say earlier that you had something tonight and asked Candy to accompany me?”

“My plans got cancelled last minute, so I can pick you up and then we can go home together.”

“Younger Sister and I had already made plans for dinner after work,” said Victoria.

Arnold Johnson replied nonchalantly, “Then wouldn’t it be even better if we dined with her?”

“…”

Victoria had no idea what had gotten into Arnold Johnson, but since he insisted, she replied, “Alright then, let’s just do as you suggest. I have plenty of pending tasks here. I’ll hang up now and we’ll talk later.”

With that, Victoria hung up the call.

Arnold Johnson looked at the words ‘call ended’ on his mobile screen. Why did he feel a sense of disappointment?

Until his workday ended, Arnold Johnson kept thinking about the man who had embraced Victoria. How close were they really? Could he be the one who had hypnotized her?

But one thing he thought about was that when Victoria was young, that man must have also been young. Could someone so young already know how to hypnotize people?

Unconsciously, Arnold Johnson drove his car to the front of Victoria’s company building.

Emery accompanied Victoria into Arnold’s car before leaving.

“How did work go today?” Arnold Johnson asked casually.

Victoria also replied casually, “Pretty smooth. You won’t believe it, but the owner of the factory we were thinking of acquiring at lunch is an acquaintance of mine.”

“Such a coincidence?” Arnold Johnson, while driving, responded to her comment.

Without much thought, Victoria naturally replied, “Yeah, you would have never guessed it, but he is my life-saving benefactor.”

Upon hearing the term ‘benefactor’, Arnold Johnson didn’t feel particularly comfortable.

Generally, women usually have a different place in their hearts for such individuals.

Of course, Edward Hernandez was also Victoria’s benefactor.

Why were there suddenly so many benefactors appearing out of the blue recently?

It seemed that the engagement news did have an effect.

In any case, any man wanting to approach Victoria at this time was suspicious, and he wouldn’t let any of them off the hook.

“How did he save you?” Arnold Johnson still curiously asked.

Victoria casually replied, “When I was five, I accidentally fell into a lake, and he was the one who saved me. If not for him, I might have drowned without anyone knowing.”

“How old was he then?”

“Are you referring to Brother Francis? He was ten,” said Victoria.

A dark line appeared on Arnold Johnson’s face.

“Brother Francis, you call him rather affectionately.” His jealous tone was evident.

Victoria laughed heartily, “I’ve always called Francis ‘Brother Francis’ since we were children. Moreover, our relationship is utterly platonic, like siblings. There are absolutely no romantic feelings on either side.”

“Unlike some people,” Victoria added as an afterthought.
