Chapter 853: Accidental Injury Unexpected Emotions 2 Chapter 853: Accidental Injury Unexpected Emotions 2 Candy Foster took Victoria Garcia to the hospital, where after some basic disinfection and simple bandaging, the doctor told her that her injuries were not severe and that she would be able to recover in about a week.

During this week, she just needed to be careful not to get the wound wet or infected, and to avoid any major movements that might aggravate it.

She didn’t even need to stay in the hospital and was able to be discharged right away.

“Emery, I told you it was nothing. See, the doctor said there’s no need to stay in the hospital. That shows it really isn’t serious. Stop blaming yourself and looking so down; it makes me feel bad,” Victoria consoled her.

Candy Foster replied, “I know your injury is not minor, but you know what Director Johnson is like. He will definitely say that this time it’s just a minor injury, but what about next time? Have you ever considered that when I handed over the responsibility to you, it was to ensure that not a single injury would occur?”

As she spoke, Candy Foster even imitated Arnold Johnson’s cold and emotionless demeanor.

Seeing this made Victoria laugh on the side.

“It’s okay, there’s nothing to worry about. I will put in a good word for you. Director Johnson won’t transfer you away from me,” Victoria said with a mischievous smile. “If he transfers you, I bet some people won’t even be able to eat.”

After a while, Candy Foster caught on and blushed.

It seemed that Victoria must have known something.

The two talked as they walked out of the hospital, and as they reached the entrance, they saw Edward Hernandez hurrying over.

After exchanging greetings, Edward Hernandez asked, “How are the injuries? Why are you discharged already? You should at least stay for a couple of days.”

“Do you all wish my injuries were severe enough to warrant hospitalization?” Victoria frowned slightly.

Seeing Victoria frown, Edward Hernandez quickly explained, “Victoria, that’s not what I meant. It just seems safer and more secure to stay in the hospital for observation.”

“The doctor said that I’m really fine, and I’ll be almost back to normal after a week. It’s just a superficial skin wound, there’s no need for a hundred days of rest for a bone injury,” Victoria replied.

Reassured by her words, Edward Hernandez let go of his concern, “That’s good to hear.”

“How’s the investigation with those people going?” Victoria asked.

Edward Hernandez replied, “They’re a bunch of habitual offenders related to the recent terrorist activities. They purely aim to retaliate against society, not caring whom they target; they just happen to kill anyone they encounter, just like the previous incidents at the Forest City train station and the Wood Town square violence.”

After hearing Edward Hernandez’s words, Victoria couldn’t help but express her surprise, “In Metropolis, right beneath the emperor’s nose, they dare to cause such chaos? It’s lawlessness.”

Originally, she had thought it was an assassination attempt targeted at her, but it turned out to be a mere coincidence.

The incidents at the Forest City train station and the Wood Town square had been reported on TV. At the time, there were over a hundred casualties, and even though the police subdued the news, it caused panic for quite a while.

And now, just half a year later, trouble was stirring again.

Victoria’s luck was truly astonishing; she had already encountered so many deliberate assassination attempts, and now even an accidental one had found her. Her fortunes were indeed explosive.

Candy Foster added from the side, “The incident has already been exposed; a passerby recorded a video and uploaded it to the internet, and it went viral instantly. The police have already made an official response.”

It looked like this time it really was a coincidence and an accident.

Presumably, Arnold Johnson would soon see this news as well.
