Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please! Chapter 450

Chapter 450: Those Women 5 Chapter 450: Those Women 5 Upon hearing her say this, Skylar Morgan and Leah Chester followed suit, agreeing, “Yeah, let’s talk about this once everyone’s calm and collected. We have plenty of time, right?”

Regardless of whether it was in the midst of the argument or in the midst of the attempts at peacemaking, Victoria Garcia did not say anything further.

As she was leaving, Grand Lady Johnson gave her a particularly resentful glance.

Victoria Garcia expected this meeting not to be peaceful, but she didn’t anticipate this turn of events.

The fact that Grand Lady Johnson was against her couldn’t be more evident.

Chloe Johnson did not show any hostility towards her throughout the whole process, but Victoria Garcia couldn’t shake off a strange feeling that Chloe Johnson was merely disguising herself well.

But if it was just that, could she have endured it for so many years, even taking extra care of the woman that Arnold Johnson brought back with him?

Victoria Garcia was somewhat confused. She shook her head and decided not to think about these issues. Since Arnold had brought these issues up, let him deal with it.

In the car, as he was driving, Arnold Johnson asked her, “Let me treat you to a meal to calm your nerves from today.”

“It would have to be a big meal.” Victoria Garcia replied.

Arnold Johnson laughed and said, “Sure, what do you want to eat?”

“I want to eat hotpot, in a place where I can see the city gate of Metropolis and where I can watch snowflakes falling,” Victoria asserted without hesitation.

Indeed, having a hot, spicy hotpot on a snowy day was a great idea.

“Alright, no problem, I know of a hotpot place like that.”

“You really can do anything, can’t you? I just mentioned it casually, and you found it, you’re much better than a search engine,” Victoria complimented.

“Of course, I’m Arnold Johnson.”

Such arrogance.

“But…” Victoria Garcia was about to change the subject, figuring out how to phrase her question more tactfully.

Arnold Johnson said straight away: “You can ask whatever you want, I promise I’ll tell you.”

“Today was unpleasant. If we end up together, we still have to face your mother; if she is…”

“Don’t worry about that; we’ll live somewhere else, you won’t have to see her,” Arnold Johnson interrupted her directly.

Victoria Garcia looked at Arnold Johnson, his expression a bit cold, but she still asked, braving the risk, “She is your mother after all, is this ok? Should I, maybe, apologize?”

“Even if you were to apologize a thousand times, she still wouldn’t accept you,” Arnold Johnson said, realizing his words were a bit harsh, he then explained, “In other words, as long as I don’t marry Chloe Johnson, she won’t approve of anyone else.”

Some things flashed through his mind, things Arnold Johnson didn’t want to think about, but that didn’t mean he was oblivious to them.

One day, things will be resolved.

“Why do I feel there’s something off between you and your mother?” Victoria Garcia courageously brought up the question.

She was simply too curious.

“Hmm, what do you find weird?”

“You don’t act like relatives,” Victoria couldn’t help but comment, “Terry Garcia is my father but he has never considered the needs of my mother and my sisters, so I consider him an enemy.”

“Do you think my mother and I share the same relationship?” Arnold Johnson continued questioning along her line of thought.

As if something was about to surface, even Arnold Johnson’s doubts took a lighthearted tone, casual as an everyday conversation, which made Victoria even more puzzled.
