Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 972 - 972 Edward Hernandezs Background

Chapter 972: Edward Hernandez’s Background Chapter 972: Edward Hernandez’s Background Edward Hernandez watched Victoria Garcia’s profile as the sunlight streamed through the car window, casting what appeared to be glistening droplets on the tip of her nose—utterly adorable.

“I was just making a suggestion. If you don’t like it, we can just stay in Metropolis,” Edward Hernandez replied.

There was a noticeable tone of disappointment in his voice.

“Paul, can you tell me who you really are?” Victoria asked again.

She had a hunch that Edward Hernandez was definitely in some kind of danger.

“My identity is very special,” Edward Hernandez simply replied with a smile.

Victoria continued, “Then how did you know that the baby in my womb was healthy and that the doctors at these hospitals were forced to lie to me? Who needs to make sure I abort the child, and what’s the purpose? Is it targeted at me or Arnold Johnson?”

She had asked these questions a month ago, yet Edward Hernandez had never given her an answer.

Whether he would give her an answer this time, Victoria was not sure.

“What if I told you that I arranged all this; would you believe me?” Edward Hernandez suddenly let out a bitter laugh.

Victoria looked at a distinctly different Edward Hernandez, her eyes beneath her eyebrows shimmering with a heavy, tragic expression, like the profound sorrow of a moth drawn to flame.

“Then tell me, why did you arrange all this? If you really wanted me to abort the child, you didn’t have to tell me, because everything you laid out had already succeeded, and I was already caught in the trap. But you stopped everything at the last moment. Why?” Victoria asked, gazing intently at Edward Hernandez.

“Because I had a pang of conscience and thought it was too cruel, so I told you everything,” said Edward Hernandez indifferently.

Was it really so?

Victoria did not believe it in her heart.

“Who are you taking orders from?” Victoria asked pointedly.

Edward Hernandez did not want to answer that question.

“Victoria, there are some things I cannot explain to you, but I can tell you clearly that you and Arnold Johnson are not suitable for each other, because he is too dangerous. There are a crowd of people around him who wish for his death. Staying here only endangers you, even your own life cannot be guaranteed, let alone protecting your child,” said Edward Hernandez in a tone that was far from joking.

The more critical and dangerous the moment, the clearer Arnold Johnson’s status in Victoria’s heart was revealed.

She trusted him, a trust that was ingrained, just like her love for him.

“Even Arnold Johnson can’t save me,” Edward Hernandez had never considered joining forces with him.

Victoria, undeterred, said, “He will. He definitely will save you; at least you know what he is capable of.”

What kind of strength Arnold Johnson had, of course, he knew. However, the strength of the person behind him was something Arnold Johnson could not even fathom. From the time he was chosen to join this hidden world, almost ten years had passed. Even before that, that person had been plotting. He didn’t know how long the plotting had been going on, what the ultimate aim was, or even who they were—Edward Hernandez had never seen them and did not know what kind of organization it was.
