Chapter 370
For a moment, Camille was both startled and embarrassed, pressing her lips tightly together and not
daring to make a sound.
One of the foreigners turned to Arnold, “Who are you? Step aside, this is none of your business!”
“If I didn’t see it, it would be none of my business. But since I did, it’s a big deal to me. Arnold replied,
smiling faintly.
Damn! He’s so handsome and gallant!
Camille was secretly shocked!
What kind of creatures were Evadne’s brothers? They were no just handsome, but also cultured.
And indeed, the way Arnold protected her and the things he said made him a bit sexy, making Camille’s
ears burn.
“Who are you really?” The other one questioned, his expression turning fierce, “Get lost!”
“I’m your father.”
Arnold answered provocatively, his handsome face growing stern, “Don’t test my patience. Let her go
now!”
“Guards!”
At the man’s furious shout, a couple of men in black suits quickly ran over from the other side of the
hallway. Clearly, these two foreigners were of high status, having so many protectors even when
traveling abroad!
Arnold, however, was not afraid. His brows furrowed, his eyes alert, scanning the surroundings.
Ever since they were young, Emeric had hired professional wrestlers to train his four sons and Evadne
in self–defense, following his mother’s wishes. After all, no matter how many bodyguards they had,
they couldn’t protect them all the time. In a crisis, their self–defense skills could save their lives.
But, it had been a long time since Arnold had fought. His skills had rusted somewhat, and he wasn’t
sure he could handle these men with confidence.
“Arnold, don’t worry about me!”
Despite her own predicament, Camille was more concerned about Arnold’s safety. She cried out to
him, her voice hoarse with fear, “You should leave first, leave this place!”
“Only if you come with me!”
Arnold clenched his fists, his gaze intensely focused on the two foreigners holding Camille, and
charged at them!
And just then, all the bodyguards swarmed him!
“No!”
Seeing Arnold become the target of everyone’s attacks, Camille paled with fear, her heart pounding so
hard it felt like it would burst out of her chest!
Arnold felt somewhat moved, but it only made him clench his fists tighter. He had to save Camille from
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthis dangerous situation.
In his entire life, aside from Evadne, he had never put himself on the line for a woman like this.
Arnold moved swiftly, his speed incredible. Before the two front bodyguards could react, he had already
knocked the two foreigners to the ground with one punch each,
“Grab my hand! Quick!” Arnold, his forehead slick with sweat, stared at Camille, reaching out his hand
to her.
“Arnold! Watch out behind you!”
Camille cried out in alarm. She, a strong woman who rarely cried, was so scared she was on the verge
of tears!
There was a bodyguard emerging behind from nowhere, brandishing an iron rod and about to hit at the
back of Arnold’s head!
If the rod landed on his head, he’d probably die in an instant or suffer severe brain concussion!
Just because of her, Evadne might lose her brother! What would she be going to pay her back? She’d
feel guilty for the rest of her life!
At the thought of this, Camille’s eyes reddening, gritting her teeth, she pounced forward and clasped
Arnold.
Arnold got temporarily astonished, grabbing her in his arm involuntarily.
Suddenly, a loud crash resonated!
“Ah-!”
A scream came from behind. The bodyguard who had tried to attack Arnold was hit in the head by a
garbage can that had suddenly flown over and fell heavily to the ground!
This scene stunned everyone else! They all stayed still and didn’t dare to approach!
“Arnold! How could you react so slowly!”
Arnold turned around abruptly, only to see Elvis casually strolling towards them, hands in his pockets.
This man, who had just kicked over the garbage can, had indeed startled them!
Camille clung onto Arnold’s suit, her eyes slowly opening to reveal their reddened eyes. She raised her
pale face to meet his gaze.
“Are you okay?“,
Arnold lowered his gaze to meet her intense stare, feeling his heart skip a beat before it started
pounding like a drum.
“I’m fine. Let’s get out of here.”
“Leave?! After you hit our boss, none of you are leaving this place!” The bodyguards surrounded them
again.
“Hey, hey.”
Elvis gave them a casual sweep, “Get it clear, my sister–in–law was harassed by these two foreigners.
Even if we hit you guys, it’s what you deserve. If we twisted your heads off and used them as footballs,
it wouldn’t be too much. And you’re still here shouting around.”
Sister–in–law?!
Camille’s eyes widened, biting her rosy lips, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
Arnold was also taken aback, but he understood what Elvis was implying.
Regardless of the sister–in–law thing, Elvis was indirectly acknowledging him as his brother.
This was a big win!
“Arnold, you take her and leave. I’ll take care of things here.” Elvis, a fierce glint in his eyes, moved his
neck and flexed his fingers, ready to fight.
During his stay in Elmsworth, he had been moping around. Now he finally had the opportunity to
partake in his favorite activity. How could he not be excited? “Can you handle it?” Arnold asked,
sounding skeptical.
“As a man, we can’t admit we are incapable.”
Elvis tilted his chin up and whistled, looking playfully at Camille, who was shivering in Arnold’s arms, “If
you don’t trust me, why don’t you stay and I’ll take her away?” “Goodbye!”
Arnold didn’t hesitate, scooping up Camille and running off!
“Damn! No respect for family affection when there are girls around! I’ll tell this to Cassius and Evadne
when we get back!” Elvis cursed at Arnold’s retreating back, but he couldn’t stop the corners of his
mouth from turning upwards.
Once they were out of the bar, Arnold hailed a taxi and helped Camille, whose legs already gave out,
into the back seat.
“Can your friend handle them all by himself? Should we call the police?” Camille grabbed Arnold’s arm,
her thin red dress drenched with sweat.
“He’s not my friend. He’s my brother, and Evadne’s, Elvis.”
Arnold looked calm, taking off his suit jacket and draping it over Camille, “Don’t worry, he can handle
more than just those few. He ate too much tonight, consider this his workout.”
“Evadne’s brother Elvis?!” Camille’s eyes widened in shock, “No wonder he looks a bit like her. But why
don’t you look like him at all?”
“My mom’s firstborn was quadruplets. I’m the second one, and I look a lot like my big brother. The third
and fourth are twins, they take after my mom.”
Arnold normally wouldn’t discuss his family with anyone.
But for some reason, her curiosity sparked his desire to answer. He also wanted to distract her from her
earlier panic.
“Oh, so it seems like Evadne took after both her mom and Chairman Emeric.”
Camille’s eyes shone with admiration, “Evadne is really well–developed, taking the best genes from
both her parents.” Arnold couldn’t hide his smile. He suddenly realized how thin she was, even thinner
than Evadne.
Her shoulders were bony, but she still looked curvaceous.
Arnold inexplicably felt a pang of sympathy for her. The grip of his hands resting on her shoulders
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtightened slightly.
“Who were those two men who were harassing you? How did you end up with them?”
Camille flinched, avoiding his concerned gaze, “Business associates. I didn’t realize they were so
uncouth.”
“Business? Evadne told me you’re a fashion designer. Don’t you usually just stay in your studio and
sketch designs and work on your sewing machine? Why get mixed up in such a scene?” Arnold’s tone
was harsh.
Camille arched her eyebrow callously, “So, in your eyes, we designers are just sewing machine
operators. We don’t need to promote our brand or expand our network?”
“So you got drunk with those foreigners? Didn’t you realize their lewd intentions?”
Arnold’s frustration grew, his eyes reddening as he glared at her, “How can you have no self–
awareness? Are you so desperate for your brand that you’ll do anything, risk anything?”
“Yes, I have no one to rely on but myself after all.” Feeling unspeakably distressed, Camille turned
away, unable to bear his gaze.
Arnold was infuriated by her nonchalance. He pinned her to the car seat, “Rely on yourself? By getting
drunk and laughing off their advances?”
“It’s none of your business.” Camille’s words were clipped, her eyes filled with disappointment.
“Do you realize what could have happened if I had been a minute later? Are you not scared at all?! Do
you want to end up as a victim on one of my cases someday?!”
“I don’t care. Besides, you did come. And even if you hadn’t, I would have found a way to escape.”
Camille moved her lips bitterly, pushing him away forcefully with her slender hands, “Next time you see
me, keep your distance. Don’t bother to save me.”
“You’re unreasonable!” Arnold’s words were heated, his eyes a burning red when he fixed her with a
close stare.
“Miss, you should listen to his advice. I’ve been working around these nightclubs for years and have
seen many girls get dragged away drunk.”
The driver tried to give some advice, “Your boyfriend is only looking out for you. Young ladies like you
shouldn’t be in places like this.”
“It’s none of your business!” Arnold and Camille said in unison.
“Alright, alright, you two stop fighting. I’ve seen things, so I know.”
The driver quickly changed the subject, asking, “So, where should I take you two after all this arguing?”
Before Camille could respond, Arnold quickly gave an address.
“Where are you taking me?” Camille demanded.
My place.”
“Arnold! You can’t just take me to your place!” Camille’s face turned a bright red.
If it wasn’t for him saving her, she would have punched him.
“Those two men tonight have quite the influence. Until Elvis deals with them, I can’t let you go home
alone. You could be followed and in danger at any moment
Arnold suddenly grabbed her wrist, holding it tightly as if his hands were handcuffs, “Tonight, you’re not
leaving my sight. I’m taking care of you!”
