Chapter 84: She disappeared 3
Arnold Johnson took something precious from Harry Collins. The very thing every man holds precious above all else.
Yet, he managed to do so in such a ruthless manner.
Victoria Garcia instinctively felt a chill sweeping down her back.
“Do you think I overstepped?” Arnold Johnson stared at her with an undeniable force in his gaze.
Victoria felt no punishment was too severe for a man like Harry Collins.
However, she felt this method had dirtied Arnold’s hands.
Arnold casually explained, “Before he kidnapped you, he drugged and **** a 16-year-old girl with three other men.”
“That 16-year-old girl committed suicide.”
Upon hearing this, Victoria felt her head buzz with a numbing sensation.
“What about the other three men?” she asked biting her teeth in agitation.
If she were to put herself in their shoes, if that little girl had been her younger sister, she would probably have impulsively stabbed them to death.
“They were taken care of by my brothers in the underworld, and thrown to a bunch of desperate fugitives.” Arnold’s gaze carried a faint hint of chilliness.
Victoria bluntly asked, “Why not just finish him off directly?”
“The girl’s father is a man of the underworld, and he still has a daughter and a son.” His voice carried a faint chilliness, “If Collins were killed, the Collins Group would not stand idly by.”
“Of course, we believe the present outcome is better than finishing him off.”
True, for a man like Harry Collins who had lost his womanhood, living was probably worse than death.
Victoria couldn’t help but feel worried, “But what if one day he finds out who was behind all this? Wouldn’t you be in danger?”
His thin lips slightly parted, saying “I’ve made so many enemies I could barely keep track. Adding one more doesn’t make much of a difference.”
Thereafter, he gazed at her, “As the future Madam Johnson, are you, scared?”
“If I really become Madam Johnson, I certainly won’t be scared.” Victoria answered without hesitation, her words ringing with determination.
If she was enjoying the benefits his power brought, naturally she also had to bear the corresponding risks.
In this world, there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
Arnold stood up, took her hand, a hint of a smile creeping onto his lips. Like ripples gently spreading on a tranquil lake, shallow yet gentle.
The nightlife in Metropolis had just begun after dinner.
Arnold drove Victoria directly to his company.
By the time the two of them arrived at the company, most of the staff in Regal Group had already left work.

The headquarters of the Regal Group were situated in the Emerging Business Circle, comprising three ten-story office buildings which could accommodate over ten thousand people. In reality, however, less than five thousand people were working there.
The ambience inside and outside the office was cosy and comfortable, Arnold’s office was located on the top floor of the second building.
Less than ten seconds after they walked into the office, Arnold’s special assistant Keith Lee led a man in.
This man was Mr. Carter, a man of the underworld.
Compared to their previous encounter, this man known as Mr. Carter seemed more calm and composed. At the same time, there were more red veins in his eyes, suggesting that he hadn’t had the best time recently.
At least, that’s what Victoria assumed.
