Chapter 629: You are actually a man of love and righteousness 3 Chapter 629: You are actually a man of love and righteousness 3 However.
By the ti Victoria Garcia sobered up, she had forgotten everything that had happened, just like the other tis she had gotten drunk.
Seeing her cry so miserably, Arnold Johnson could only continue to softly console her: “Please stop crying. I’m standing right in front of you, safe and sound. There’s no need to be afraid. I won’t leave you, and I will always stay by your side, even if you try to drive away. I won’t go.”
Arnold had never considered letting go of what he was determined to accomplish.
Victoria cried for a while before stopping. As she looked at Arnold, she spoke in a voice broken by sobs, “Even though rumors outside say that you’re a cold and ruthless person, I know deep down that you’re a man with principles and emotions.”
Hearing her evaluation of him, Arnold couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion; he didn’t expect her to understand him so well.
He was cold and ruthless, but only towards those who betrayed and challenged his bottom line.
“Tell , how can such a principled, emotional man like you remain unmoved in the face of a woman who has saved your life and loved you unconditionally since childhood? Even if it’s not love, guilt and remorse would naturally haunt you.” Victoria’s voice grew sadder as she spoke, “I’m so afraid. I’m afraid that they’ll use your ntality to manipulate you. If that happens, you might never return to my side.”
“That won’t happen. Aside from your side, I don’t want to stay by anyone else’s.” Arnold hugged her, kissed her hair and said, “I will never change what I promised you, and I won’t let the things you’re worried about happen.”
As for Chloe Johnson, he would tell her in his own way. If she persisted in her delusions, it would be her own fault.
“What will you do when these two won—your mother and your benefactor—try to force you with their lives?” Victoria asked, expressing her greatest fear. “Even if you chose over their lives, I wouldn’t want that outco. I don’t want you to be alienated by everyone around you.”
“Victoria, there’s sothing I haven’t told you. Grand Lady Johnson and I aren’t actually mother and son by blood.” Arnold suddenly blurted out.
Shaking her head, Victoria wondered if she’d misheard. She looked up at Arnold and said, “Am I dreaming?”
Then, she threw herself back into Arnold’s arms.
“You’re not dreaming. I’m telling the truth. Even though Grand Lady Johnson is not my biological mother, Grand Master Johnson is indeed my father, and Christopher Johnson is my half-brother. They have both taken care of since I was little, which is why I treat Grand Lady Johnson like my own mother.”
Arnold slowly continued, “In those days, due to the Johnson family’s involvent with the criminal syndicate, the family was in constant turmoil. There were frequent assassination attempts, both open and secret. My father died protecting , and before he passed away, he asked to take care of Grand Lady Johnson as if she were my biological mother. Later on, my elder brother also died because of , and before he died, he hoped that I would fulfill his filial duties towards Grand Lady Johnson and take care of his wife and child.”
Just as Arnold prepared to continue, he heard Victoria’s steady breathing. She had fallen asleep while standing in his embrace!
Arnold couldn’t help but smile at the drunk and carefree Victoria.
