Chapter 34: Why is it him 3
Victoria was about to leave, but Alexander grabbed her arm, using all his strength to keep her from breaking free.
“All Arnold Johnson has given you is what money and power can buy,” Alexander said slowly, word by word, “Wait for me, and I can give you the same.”
Victoria couldn’t bear to look at the pain in Alexander’s eyes.
She glanced at the sky for a moment. There was no snow in Metropolis today, just a rare clear sky with white clouds. She blinked before looking into Alexander’s eyes and spoke slowly, “Leah once asked me if I really love you. I didn’t answer her, but now I want to tell you.”
“We’ve known each other for six years, and you’ve been a warm ray of sunshine in my heart, but always lacking a bit of passion. It’s because of that missing passion I realized that what I feel for you is only affection, not love.”
When Victoria said these words, her heart was still calm, and there was no hint of turbulence.
This calmness made her believe what Aubree Field had said was true.
“That’s impossible,” Alexander’s grip on her arm tightened, “The night when you saw me with Aubree, the expression on your face was clearly painful. This means you do have feelings for me.”
Only heaven knows how excited he was that night when he saw he had provoked her to lose her composure.
“To be pursued for six years and suddenly turn to another woman, even if I don’t love you, I would feel lost, right?” This simple human nature was obvious to anyone.
Alexander had always thought that Victoria was cold and heartless, so when he pursued her, he was prepared to be cruelly rejected, but never felt as desperate as he did now.
He was like a wooden statue, completely unresponsive to her words.

Victoria looked at him and spoke again, “I’m now Arnold Johnson’s woman, and our relationship ends here. Please don’t come looking for me in the future. I don’t want him to get the wrong idea.”
After administering this final blow, Victoria forcefully shook off Alexander, who was still in a stunned state, and quickly walked away.
Her steps were hurried and even a little erratic.
After all, she couldn’t deceive herself. At least, once upon a time, she truly was moved by a young man named Alexander Mitchell. It was just that in the end, something was missing between them.
Let those beautiful moments of youth fade away with the passage of time, becoming pale and distant.
When Allen came to pick up Victoria, her emotions had already calmed down.
After getting into the car, she realized that it wasn’t Allen who had come to pick her up today, but Arnold Johnson himself.
“From the look on your face, it seems you’re a little happy,” Arnold revealed a shallow smile in the corner of his mouth. He enjoyed seeing Victoria surprised.
Victoria, however, responded, “Surprise and happiness are two different things.”
“As long as the effect is the same, it’s fine,” Arnold didn’t mind her explanation.
“Don’t you have work today?” Victoria changed the subject.
Based on her understanding of Arnold these days, he was a workaholic; it was completely unlike him to show up at this time.
“Compared to work, I’m more interested and passionate about you. If you say you want to see me, then there will be no trace of my work,” Arnold said.
With his hand on the steering wheel and his shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, Arnold exuded a casual yet sexy vibe. Combined with his light-hearted tone, this sensuality made people feel happy just by looking at him.
There’s a lazy kind of sexiness called pleasure.
That was Arnold Johnson at this moment.
