Arnold had been carrying a torch for Victoria and wanting to win her heart for more than just a day or two. In fact, it had been more than a few years too.
Ever since he met her in Canada and was saved by her when he encountered an almost fatal asthma attack, he decided that Victoria was another close confidante he would have for the rest of his life.
However, Arnold could never win her heart in the past few years regardless of what he did.
Moreover, since Victoria had somehow become the president of Perry Express and Arnold's superior, he stood an even smaller chance.
However, Cayden had now given Arnold the chance to make his dream come true!
Arnold was drinking wine, and he had long stopped bothering about whether or not the woman was the real Victoria. At his age, he had long understood that the world is full of falsehoods. Everything that happened in the past is nothing but hollow memories.
However, Arnold leaped towards Victoria's impostor, but she was full of resistance against him. "Mr. Decker, what are you doing? I have a boyfriend. Please respect me!"
Like a beast, Arnold questioned, "Who's your boyfriend? Is he the lowly manager of the training department, Jordan Steele?"
"Victoria" answered, "Yes, my boyfriend is Jordan Steele!"
When Arnold heard Jordan's name, he gritted his teeth and hollered, "Psht! That freeloader isn't worthy of you at all. You and I truly belong to each other!"
After saying that, he threw himself onto her again.
Smack!
The woman slapped Arnold!
"Bitch!"
At the side, Cayden slammed the table, pointed at the woman, and cursed, "You cheap wench, how dare you hit Mr. Decker? Have you got a death wish!?! I'm going to beat you to death!"
However, when Cayden was about to hit her, Arnold defended the woman and reached out to stop Cayden.
He wasn't enraged at all and was, in fact, a little surprised. "That's right, this is what Victoria is really like! They're becoming more and more similar! Hahaha!"
Cayden was thrilled too. He had personally trained this woman who had long mastered the way Victoria spoke, her mannerisms, and her temper.
Cayden said, "Since this is the case, why don't you take Miss Clarke back to the hotel room, and the two of you can take your time to talk? Mr. Decker, I've already booked the presidential suite at the Peninsula Hotel for you."
Arnold took the initiative to down another glass of wine and said, "Okay, I'll accept this gift from you, Cayden. From now onwards, we'll have each other's back because we're all in the same boat!"
Arnold had inadvertently discovered the secret between Cayden and his rich scion friends. Hence, he knew that if he didn't play along once, they wouldn't trust him.
Besides, he really wanted to get intimate with Victoria's impostor, who was right in front of him.
Cayden toasted to Arnold again, and then the four of them left the private room together.
A few minutes after they left, a figure suddenly entered the private room quietly, stepped on a chair, and took away an extremely tiny and inconspicuous camera in the corner of the private room.
The person was Tim!
When they reached the parking lot, Cayden, Nate and Arnold waved goodbye to one another.
"Mr. Decker, I shall not see you off. You and Miss Clarke enjoy yourselves tonight. Here's some medicine, just in case you need it. Haha."
Cayden handed Arnold a small bag.
"Okay, let's keep in touch."
Arnold and "Victoria" left first.
After they left, Nate humphed coldly and gibed, "Finally, this old fogy has been dragged into this, but Cayden, you've spent too much money and effort to pick a girl for him. You had to change her ID and send her for plastic surgery."
Cayden laughed and said, "Nate, you don't understand. I'm not trying to drag him down to make him one of us."
"I'm taking this opportunity to deal Perry Express a lethal blow!"
Seemingly deep in thought, Nate asked, "What do you mean?"
Cayden said with a sinister smile, "Tomorrow, you will see the news of the president and vice president of Perry Express sleeping with each other, haha!"
