Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 980 - 980 Critical Juncture 2

Chapter 980: Critical Juncture 2 Chapter 980: Critical Juncture 2 Victoria Garcia’s other hand gripped the car door handle tightly, preventing the black-clothed man from immediately dragging her over.

But her strength was no match for the black-clothed man’s.

Just when she thought it was hopeless to get into the car, she suddenly felt the man loosen his grip. Without thinking, Victoria scrambled into the car and quickly locked the door.

By the time she turned to look back, she saw Edward Hernandez had been brought down by the black-clothed man who had been grabbing at her. His face and body were covered in wounds, and blood was pouring profusely from the corners of his mouth.

“Run… run…” Edward Hernandez mouthed the shape of these words as they hit him.

Victoria’s eyes were already moist with tears, but at this moment, she had to leave. She said to Edward Hernandez, “Wait for me!”

Yes, she would find a way to save him; she hoped he could hold on.

Victoria’s car was a custom model provided by Arnold Johnson, with excellent safety and bulletproof features. So Victoria didn’t think twice; she assumed that with her driving skills, once she was in the car, she could find a way to escape.

But she never expected that her car wouldn’t even make it out of the garage before it became immobilized.

As it turned out, the enemy had already arranged for a sniper. Her car was barely started when a tire was shot out – and tires, no matter how they’re equipped, are not bulletproof.

For the first time, Victoria slammed the steering wheel with her exposed hand and cursed loudly, “Damn it!”

As soon as her car stopped, she saw the black-clothed men with guns and tools approaching.

Victoria knew she wouldn’t last long before she was captured.

She immediately reached for her phone and called Arnold Johnson, silently urging, “Pick up! Pick up! Pick up!”

One, two, three…

On the fifth ring, Arnold Johnson finally answered the call.

As soon as Arnold Johnson spoke, Victoria blurted out, “Arnold, I’m being ambushed. My tires are shot out, and it won’t be three minutes before I’m captured.”

“Where are you? Where are your protectors?” Arnold Johnson growled urgently.

Victoria didn’t have time to worry about that and spoke as quickly as she could, “I’m in the company’s underground car park. Edward Hernandez was captured trying to save me. Edward Hernandez is one of them, but he betrayed his superiors. According to him, their target is you, and Kaelin Johnson’s death as well as my mother’s car accident… they were all orchestrated by them…”

At this point, Victoria suddenly felt a wave of grievance and said to Arnold Johnson, “Arnold, I’m sorry!”

“Madam… listen to me! You have nothing to apologize for! You need to stay strong; I’m coming to save you! You have to hold on; I will rescue you!” Arnold Johnson said firmly.

“I don’t know who they are. Edward Hernandez said he didn’t know either, as he’s just one of their pawns. But they must have been planning for many, many years. Edward Hernandez has been a coerced pawn for ten years now; you must be careful! If…”

Victoria’s words were cut short as she was dragged out by the black-clothed man, and she let out a shrill scream, “Ah…”

She didn’t have a chance to tell him that their child was still alive!

“Victoria… Victoria…” Arnold Johnson called out her name.

Then, he heard someone stomp down on the phone, and afterwards, there were no more sounds coming from the phone…
