After talking to Arnold, Victoria hung up the phone.
Jack walked over. It was already past three in the morning, deep into the night with heavy dew. He touched Victoria's hand and indeed felt a bit cold.
Jack frowned deeply, took off his black suit jacket, and draped it over Victoria's thin shoulders.
The jacket still retained the clean and crisp scent of the man as well as the warm and comfortable body temperature. In the moment when enveloped by the man's warmth, Victoria's curled eyelashes blinked. "I'm not cold."
Jack held her hand and said, "Your hands are cold."
...Okay.
Victoria didn't say anything more, just adjusted the suit jacket on her shoulders and immediately walked towards Elizabeth.
What she was most worried about now was Elizabeth.
Just now in the warehouse, Elizabeth was almost molested by that tattooed man. For a girl, this could likely leave serious psychological trauma.
Did Amelia, the mastermind behind this, think she could escape punishment?
Victoria's eyes suddenly narrowed.
She would never let Amelia have her way.
She would definitely seek justice for Elizabeth.
At this moment, Kyle stood beside Elizabeth, seeing the tears still wet on her face, his hatred towards Amelia deepened. "Damn it, she's the one who should be in jail! She's a monster!"
However, Elizabeth only stared in the direction of Victoria, her eyes slightly red and full of emotion. She didn't know why, but when she was in the warehouse, she always believed that Victoria would come to rescue her. She didn't expect that Victoria would come.
She still remembered the scene of the warehouse door being kicked open, the slender figure of the woman standing in the backlight, instantly dispelling her panic and darkness...
Kyle was still cursing at Amelia.
But now Amelia didn't even care about Kyle. Her eyes were fixed on Victoria and Jack not far away.
Even the other brothers of the Montgomery family were all dumbfounded, looking at Victoria and Jack with stunned expression.
Although Kyle had already mentioned that Jack might be pursuing Victoria and had sinister intentions towards her, at this moment, seeing Jack tenderly draping his jacket over Victoria's shoulders, the shock was still so overwhelming that they couldn't find words to express it.
With the strength and status of the Montgomery family, they rarely had the opportunity to see Jack in person. They could only see that unreachable man like the moon in the sky in financial magazines or news interviews. Now, Jack appeared in the Montgomery family together with Victoria...
Strangely, they were in Montgomery's family Villa, clearly in their own home, but facing this lofty and powerful man, his inherent aura of superiority made them feel constrained and cramped even in their own home. They didn't dare to approach Victoria or go over to talk to her...
"Dempsey, what is the relationship between Victoria and Jack?" Eric murmured in disbelief.
"How would I know?" Dempsey was also confused.
At this moment, Amelia's face was as pale as paper, staring at Victoria with eyes full of poisoned hatred, her heart filled with resentment and madness. Why...
Why does Victoria always get the best of everything?
She easily restored an artifact and received the highest praise.
She was kicked out of the Montgomery family and despised by the family, but in the end, Trent, Peter, and the others all revolved around her.
Even a man with as much power as Jack was chasing after her...
Why?
Why does Victoria always get the best, even in men?
No, that's not right!
