Chapter 743 I’m Getting You Out of Here
Arnold vaguely understood what the guards were saying. As he turned around, a loud noise came from inside the warehouse. It sounded like something banging against the door.
He glanced up.
One of the guards explained, “There are rats in the warehouse.”
Arnold stepped back and said to the man beside him, “Scar, I remember you’re skilled at catching rats. You should go in.”
“Yes, Mr. Carter,” Scar answered immediately.
However, the guards blocked him from getting close. “Mr. Carter…
Arnold’s expression darkened. “It seems my words mean nothing in Wayne’s territory. No one bothers to heed me.”
His words were imbued with irony, prompting the guards to shudder in fear.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded behind him. “Arnold.”
He turned around and saw Mr. Vipera walking toward him as a subordinate held an umbrella for him.
Arnold looked down slightly. “You can tell Wayne that I’m not doing this task anymore. They won’t even let me enter a warehouse.”
“Throwing a tantrum again?” Mr. Vipera looked at Arnold and continued, “You’re too rash. You should go home and calm down.”
Arnold stood still and refused to move.
“Wayne wants what’s best for you. You keep messing things up over a woman. Don’t forget that your father is still in prison, and you haven’t brought down Dexter.”
Arnold remained silent.
The person in the warehouse made noises in protest.
After some time, Arnold finally spoke, “I’m disappointed in Wayne for doing this.”
Mr. Vipera smiled and patted his shoulder. “You have to endure it and fulfill your
duties.”
Those words signified the end of their conversation. Arnold was not in a position to ask any more questions.
He clenched his fist repeatedly. In the end, he had no choice but to leave with Scar. Scar was confused. “Shouldn’t we save her?”
Arnold did not respond. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Meanwhile, Mr. Vipera instructed, “Move her once the rain stops.”
“Yes, Mr. Vipera!”
Josie pressed herself against the warehouse door and listened to the conversation outside. However, she could only catch some of it. All she knew was that Arnold and Scar had left. Then, Mr. Vipera left soon after. Only the guards remained outside.
Josie was crestfallen. They talked about moving me elsewhere. But where? Paul is still missing. Am I going to die in Rivodia?
She held back tears and hugged the gun, forcing herself to stay awake through the night.

Still, she fell asleep. In her dream, Dexter discovered she was in danger and powered through all obstacles to rescue her. He reached out to her and said, “Jo, I’ve come to save you.”
Dexter appeared/bright as the sun, lighting up the dark corners.
The dream felt so real that Josie squinted. Her eyes hurt as if bright lights shone on them. She blearily woke up and saw someone had opened the warehouse door. Furthermore, a man walked against the light, heading her way.
“No… Stay away…” Josie mumbled instinctively.
Her body was on the verge of collapse.
A tall man came to her and embraced her tightly. “Josie, you’re safe now.”
His familiar voice woke Josie from her dream. She instinctively knew it was real and opened her eyes, seeing a stern face above her. His head was stained with blood, and he had a threatening aura around him.”
“Arnold!” Josie was stunned. “Didn’t you leave?”
Didn’t he give in to them?
Arnold wore a black windbreaker and a hat. He looked grim as he said, “I’m getting you out of here.”
He carried Josie in his arms and walked firmly out of the warehouse.
Josie’s heart thumped nervously. She found it hard to believe that he had returned.
“What will you do if Wayne asks you about me?”
Arnold stepped into the rainy night, holding Josie closely. Josie noticed two men unconscious by the road. They were the guards who watched the warehouse.
