The Abandoned Husband Dominates Chapter 161-165

Chapter 161: Victoria Gets Dismissed!

Jade Villa.

Hailey tossed and turned in her newly purchased bed, unable to fall asleep no matter how she tried.

Thus, she got up with a look of frustration on her face.

Cayden hurriedly sat down beside her and said comfortingly, “My dear wife, what’s wrong? Are you suffering from insomnia?”

Hailey was furious. Although she was about to get married for the third time in her life and was now an expectant mother, she was still pure and youthful, like a teenage girl.

Hailey said, “It’s so noisy next door! There are so many people at Victoria Clarke’s house, and the thought of them drinking happily makes me angry.”

“Jordan slept with my cousin, and now he’s hooking up with Victoria. He’s already been with two different women in less than a month since our divorce! What gives him the right to do that?”

Hailey had only been with Cayden after her divorce from Jordan, so she felt she was disadvantaged.

Cayden was stunned because they lived in a villa where there wouldn’t be sound insulation issues prevalent in apartments.

At the very least, Cayden did not hear anything.

“I’ll go next door to look for them!”

Cayden was just about to get up when he was pulled back by Hailey. “Hey, Hubby, forget it. Don’t go.”

Hailey was afraid that Cayden and Jordan would fight again because Cayden would definitely be at the losing end.

Hailey asked, “Does Victoria Clarke have a lot of friends in New York? She just bought a villa today, and so many people are here to celebrate for her. Those cars parked outside her door are all luxury cars too.”

Cayden smiled faintly and said, “Maybe, but that little network of connections hers is insignificant compared to the Huxleys’ network in New York City.”

“Besides, I’ve already sent someone to check the license plate numbers of the cars that are at her place. Soon, I’ll be able to find out who they are.”

“Honey, go to bed. Rest assured, since Victoria Clarke and Jordan Steele dared to provoke us like that, I will make their lives hard in New York City!”

After half an hour, Cayden received a phone call.

“Cayden, I’ve found out that that pink Porsche belongs to Stella Weston, owner of Stella Cosmetics, and the other two cards belong to employees of their company.”

Cayden said with a faint smile, “So it’s that small cosmetic products company that Maggie endorses.”

Cayden knew about Stella Cosmetics because the brand had risen to fame in the country in the last two years and for some special reasons.

However, given his expression, he clearly didn’t take Stella’s company seriously.

11:30 pm.

Stella and the others walked out of Victoria and Jordan’s villa, and the two of them went outside to see them off.

“Bye, Victoria, see you at the office tomorrow.”

“Bye-bye, Miss Clarke.”

Stella and the others waved goodbye to Victoria before driving away from Jade Villa.

However, when they drove out of the villa, a Mercedes Benz G-wagon forced Stella’s Porsche to come to a halt.

“Who is that!?! Do you know how to drive!?!”

Since she had drunk alcohol, Stella was now sitting in the passenger seat. She cursed at the driver of the Mercedes-Benz G-wagon.

The driver of the Mercedes-Benz G-wagon slowly rolled down the window, revealing his handsome young face. “Stella Weston, right? Pullover at the side. Let’s chat.”

Stella also found him to be a little familiar-looking. Besides, there were many of them and a few cars. Thus, she wasn’t afraid that he might harm her.

Because of this, Stella’s and her colleague’s cars were all stopped at the side of the road with their hazard lights on.

Stella strutted over domineeringly in her high heels, “Who are you? How do you know me?”

Cayden, too, got out of the car, lit up a cigarette, and smiled. “I’m Cayden Huxley. My family owns Breezy Express.”

“Breezy Express! The Huxleys!”

Stella was immediately taken aback!

There were hidden powerhouses everywhere in this city, and moreover, Cayden was driving a luxury car. Thus, although Cayden forced her to stop, she didn’t hurl any vulgarities for fear that she might accidentally offend a big shot.

Hearing Cayden reveal his family’s name, Stella was really shocked out of his wits.

All business owners in New York were aware of the billionaire family, the Huxleys.

Even an ordinary person would know that Breezy Express was the best logistics company in the city at the moment!

Stella immediately smiled and said, “No wonder I found you so familiar-looking, Handsome. So it’s you, Mr. Huxley. Do you want to get to know me? Come on, let’s exchange numbers.”

Cayden reached out and refuted. “Miss Weston, I’d like to ask you, what is your relationship with Victoria Clarke?”

Stella said truthfully, “We are best friends, she just came to New York City, and now she is the deputy president of Stella Cosmetics.”

“Mr. Huxley, you’re not in love with Victoria, are you? It’s a pity. She already has a boyfriend.”

Stella thought that Cayden had taken a fancy to Victoria, so he was looking for her lobbyist.

After all, Victoria had a great temperament and was the ideal type of these businessmen.

Cayden said, “I really don’t like that woman Victoria Clarke, so I hope you won’t hire her.”

Seemingly put in a tough spot, Stella said, “How can I do that? She’s already become a shareholder, and I was the one who invited her to New York…”

Cayden humphed coldly and said, “If you don’t sack her, I will use the power of my family against you. Do you think that with the power of our family, this small cosmetics company of yours can still gain a foothold in New York City?”

Stella bit her lips. Of course, she knew the strength of the Huxleys!

If the Huxleys wanted to deal with her, she wouldn’t be able to defeat them even if she had ten Stella Cosmetics!

Stella looked at Cayden and asked, “Are you really a member of the Huxleys?”

She couldn’t turn her back on her best friend if he was just a random person who popped up on the road.

Cayden smiled and said, “Maggie is the spokesperson of your lipstick brand, right? Let me show you something.”

Cayden took out his phone and found a group photo in the hidden album. He then showed it to Stella.

When Stella saw it, she was instantly shocked!

It was a picture of Cayden and Maggie kissing in a hotel!

Maggie was a popular idol, and the photo would cause Instagram to crash if it was exposed.

“Do you believe it now?” Cayden asked with a sinister smile.

“Yes, yes!”

Stella no longer dared to doubt the identity of the man in front of her.

Since he could sleep with a celebrity and have photos of her that hadn’t been exposed, he was definitely a wealthy scion.

Cayden had slept with many celebrities, and Maggie was just one of them.

On the next day, Victoria excitedly drove to work at Stella’s company.

It was her first day at work in New York City, and she brought breakfast and small gifts for many of her colleagues.

After giving them out, Victoria came to Stella’s office.

“Miss Weston, where is my office?” Victoria asked with a smile.

To her surprise, Stella remained silent on the chair for a long time with a bitter expression on her face.

Stella suddenly gave the bank card that Victoria gave her yesterday back to her. She said, “Victoria, I haven’t touched this money, so take it back.”

Victoria was baffled. “Why? Do you think it’s too little? I’ll invest 15 million dollars then. Anyway, I have confidence in our company.”

Stella sighed and said with difficulty, “Sorry, Victoria, I can’t let you work in my company anymore!”

Chapter 162: Victoria’s Despair!

Victoria’s excitement instantly vanished!

She initially thought that today would be the start of everything good, but she didn’t expect to be dismissed on her first day in the new company.

Stella looked at Victoria with a guilty expression and asked, “Victoria, did you offend the Huxleys?”

Stella had been busy with her cosmetics company, so she was previously unclear about Victoria’s predicament in Ace Corporation.

Victoria instantly understood what was going on. It turned out to be Cayden’s doing.

“I’m sorry, Victoria. I can’t help it. There’s no way this small company of ours can defeat the Huxleys.”

Stella apologized to Victoria guiltily.

Victoria smiled and said, “It’s okay, Stella, I don’t blame you. If I were you, I’d probably do the same thing.”

“I’ll get going then. Let’s have afternoon tea together some other time.”

Victoria maintained her good manners and got up to leave.

After leaving the building and returning to her car, Victoria did not have time to sulk in sorrow and immediately picked up her cell phone to make a call.

Having carved a career alone in the business world for seven years, coupled with the fact that she had risen to the position of president of a listed company, she naturally had a lot of contacts.

In fact, Stella Cosmetics was not at all the best company she could work in.

She merely chose to work there because she was close to Stella.

Several online literature companies, music platform companies, film companies, and video content companies invited Victoria to join them.

“Mr. Jones, you said previously that if I were to come to New York City, you would give me the role of deputy president. Does it still stand now?”

“Yes, yes, I’m already in New York City. When are you free? I’ll come and have a chat with you, alright?”

Victoria first called a listed online video company named Genie.

However, in the past two years, the company has been incurring financial losses. Last year, it lost close to two billion dollars.

With only two or three video websites left on the market, and the increasing membership prices of the other companies, Victoria knew that making profits was just a matter of time.

The future prospects of this company were excellent.

Arriving at the Innovation Center building where the company was located, the company’s CEO, Linus Jones, personally received Victoria at the reception room of the office.

“Ah, since the last time we parted, I’ve been looking forward to meeting you again, Miss Clarke.”

“Seriously, I even dreamed of you last night!”

“Who knew that you’d coincidentally contact me bright early this morning and ask to work at my company. Haha, don’t you think it’s fate?”

Victoria and Linus had previously had dinner in Orlando, which was also where they knew each other.

Due to Victoria’s unique aura and her flair for coaxing those tycoons, Linus took a fancy to Victoria after they met each other once.

Victoria smiled and said, “Who said it’s not? I already had a hunch during the meal we had the other time that I’d definitely work for you someday, Mr. Jones.”

“Haha, sure! Sure! Alright!”

Linus grinned happily. With such a beautiful deputy president like Victoria, he would definitely enjoy work every day.

“Victoria, you used to work in Ace Corporation, which has nothing to do with Internet technology after all. I have to test your knowledge in video websites!”

Linus naturally wouldn’t choose a random person to hold an essential position in the company. He wouldn’t be able to convince the majority of the other employees either.

Victoria was naturally more than just a pretty face. She had a thorough understanding of many industries, especially Internet companies.

Over the past seven years, she had learned a lot when having frequent meals with the big bosses of these industries.

After a long chat, Linus exclaimed in awe, “There is no one as beautiful and capable as you in the whole of this city. Welcome on board!”

“I’ll convene a board meeting immediately to announce this matter!”

“Thank you, Mr. Jones!”

However, to his surprise, a middle-aged man knocked on the door at this very moment. He whispered something into Linus’s ear after entering.

After hearing his words, Linus’s joy vanished immediately.

Linus asked the middle-aged man to go out and then lit up a cigarette. He asked, “Victoria, when did you offend the Huxleys?”

Victoria had already guessed that what the middle-aged man had just conveyed was the message sent by the Huxleys.

Victoria was somewhat surprised. It had only been slightly over half an hour since she arrived at Genie Co.

How did Cayden Huxley manage to find out and stop her so soon?

“Cayden Huxley is following me!”

Victoria thought of this possibility.

Regardless of which company Victoria goes to, Cayden would definitely think of a way to stop her.

Genie was a listed company, and yet, they couldn’t even have autonomy and had to be subservient to the Huxleys.

Victoria looked at Linus and said, “Mr. Jones, could it be that you’re also afraid of the Huxleys? I’ve never offended them, but they’re out to kill me.”

While smoking, Linus sighed and said, “Ah, I’m sorry, Miss Clarke, I can’t go against Mr. Huxley’s wishes.”

“How about this? Tell me what happened to you guys, and I’ll see if I can help you two mediate.”

“That’s not necessary.”

Victoria knew it would be useless because Cayden had never had a feud with her. He was doing it because she was Jordan’s girlfriend.

At the end of the day, the only solution was to break up with Jordan.

However, Victoria wouldn’t do that!

“Excuse me, Mr. Jones.”

Victoria once again left dejectedly.

After that, Victoria called several companies again and again and also went for interviews.

However, without exception, the bosses would receive a call less than half an hour after she arrived.

The smiles on their faces would instantly become cold too.

She had to admit that the Huxleys were really powerful in New York City.

The bosses of the ten-odd companies that Victoria went to were all afraid of the Huxleys!

At five o’clock in the afternoon, Victoria parked her car on the side of the road. She was drenched in sweat, and her makeup was a bit smudged. Since she had been walking in high heels, her feet hurt, and her heels were bleeding.

It was her heart that hurt the most.

After being rejected time and time again, she felt that there was no way she could survive in New York City!

Seated in the driver’s seat, Victoria lit up a cigarette and laid her head on the steering wheel.

Knock-knock.

A Mercedes-Benz suddenly drove up and stopped in front of Victoria. A man knocked on Victoria’s car window.

Victoria lowered the window and saw that it was none other than Cayden!

Cayden had a sinister smile as he looked at Victoria, who was lost in thought.

He said, “What’s wrong, Miss Clarke? Are you crying? Tsk tsk, you’ve always been a conceited beauty. Why do you look so sad now? Looking at you makes my heart ache a little.”

Victoria glowered at Cayden furiously and wished she could eat him up!

Cayden leaned against the car window, stuck his head into Victoria’s car, and laughed.

“How is it? Beauty, do you know how powerful I am now?”

“It’s pointless no matter how many companies you approach. As long as I make a phone call to them, they’ll sack you immediately even if they hire you!”

As Cayden spoke, he moved his face closer and closer to Victoria’s face in a bid to kiss her!

In his opinion, Victoria had already been tortured to desperation by him today and definitely knew the impeccable strength of the Huxleys.

He was confident that Victoria would not dare to refuse!

Chapter 163: I’d Rather Become a Beggar!

Cayden had suddenly developed lustful thoughts about Victoria.

Victoria was older than him, and her aura was overbearing, so Cayden had never dared to behave inappropriately towards her.

However, Victoria was now exhausted after a day of failed interviews.

The weather was hot, and Victoria had to walk quite a distance to reach her car, so she was now feeling hot and sweaty.

When she got into the car, she took off her high heels that had been torturing her all day.

Cayden only dared to take advantage of Victoria because he saw how exhausted and disheveled she was.

That would also be a kind of revenge on Jordan!

In the past seven years, countless men had wanted to take advantage of Victoria.

She could tell what was on a man’s mind just by looking into his eyes!

Hence, when Cayden was about to kiss her, Victoria suddenly opened the car door and violently pushed it outwards.

“Hey, hey, hey, my head! It’s stuck! Stop pushing!”

Cayden panicked and frantically exclaimed as half of his body was inside her car while the other half was outside. He looked extremely disheveled.

Victoria pushed Cayden away and put on her high heels again before stepping out of the car, once again regaining her domineering aura.

Cayden got out of the car and pointed at Victoria. “What an arrogant woman, how dare you be so disrespectful to me!?!”

Victoria had already shown mercy to Cayden. If he didn’t have a powerful grandfather, Victoria wouldn’t have just pushed the car door. She would have slapped him!

Victoria said furiously, “Cayden Huxley, you’re getting married tomorrow. Instead of spending time with your beautiful wife, you decided to follow me the entire day. You’ve got lots of free time, don’t you?”

Cayden laughed and said, “Don’t think I’ll let you guys off the hook just because I’ll be busy with my wedding. You’re on my turf, and you really asked for it by living in the villa next to mine. How can I possibly let you have a good time!?!”

“Victoria, there’s no feud between us, and to be honest, I really admire you. Beautiful and capable presidents like you are few and far between in this city.”

“As long as you break up with Jordan and stop seeing him, I can introduce you to a job at Breezy Express.”

“Of course, I can’t let you be the deputy president for the time being, but there won’t be a problem for you to be a senior executive.”

“You’re so capable. I believe that in less than two years, you will climb up on your own, won’t you?”

Breezy Express was a company worth tens of billions, and Cayden’s offer to Victoria was absolutely a huge temptation!

However, Victoria continued to refute adamantly, “I won’t strike a deal with you! I just want to be Jordan’s girlfriend!”

“I don’t have to work for someone else either. I have enough money too, and at most, I’ll set up my own company!”

Victoria was also a multi-millionaire herself, and she could easily take out 20 million dollars.

However, Cayden laughed and said, “Haha, start your own company? That’s great. I’m waiting for you to spend all your money and then become penniless with Jordan!”

“You can try. Whatever company you open and whatever business you do, I will boycott you to the very end!”

“If you fork out 20 million dollars, I’ll fork out 40. If you fork out 200 million dollars, I’ll fork out a billion dollars to suppress you!”

“You can’t be richer than I am!”

Nowadays, competition in business is all about a contest of who can spend more money.

Previously, Jordan had used this exact method to deal with those companies that Tyler invested in.

The party that spends the most money will definitely defeat the other party.

Victoria was enraged. “I just don’t believe that the Huxleys can be tyrants in New York City. I’m sure you have rivals and enemies!”

“I’m telling you, even if Jordan and I end up becoming beggars in New York City, I won’t succumb to you!”

Cayden gave Victoria a thumbs up and exclaimed, “You’ve got some guts. I’ll wait for you to turn into beggars then!”

After Cayden finished speaking, he drove away with a big smile on his face.

Victoria got a grip on her emotions, adjusted her dress, fixed her makeup, and then headed home.

Jordan had already returned and had made dinner.

He had gone to Perry Express today to apply for a courier job, and it went well.

Perry Express was the second-largest courier company after Breezy Express.

“Honey, I’m home.”

Victoria was all smiles as she hid her fatigue and sadness from Jordan.

When you truly love someone, you won’t want them to know that you’ve suffered.

In fact, they might not be able to alleviate your troubles anyway.

That would only increase the pressure on Jordan for nothing!

Jordan kissed Victoria and asked, “How was work today?”

Victoria did not want to lie to him, but she did not want him to worry either, so she digressed and said, “Tell me about yourself first, how was your day? You didn’t encounter any trouble, right?”

Jordan smiled and asked, “Are you afraid that Cayden will send someone to beat me up in broad daylight?”

“Even if there’s a fight, I should be the one to beat him up! I still haven’t settled the scores with him for slandering you as a promiscuous woman on the internet yet!”

Victoria held Jordan’s hand and said, “Forget it, let’s not talk about that, let me try your cooking!”

For the past three years, Jordan had been studying food and culinary seriously under Hailey’s supervision. Victoria enjoyed it with great pleasure.

However, after eating, Victoria said she was exhausted and went to bed early.

At TAXX nightclub in New York, it was the very same night.

The electronic dance music in the club was deafening, with the bass booming. The gorgeous long-legged beauties were constantly capturing hearts.

Nightclub goers would know how expensive the seats here were. The fact that all the cars parked outside the club showed that the patrons were all tycoons.

Cayden was drinking with some friends in the best private room in the club.

“Cayden, I really didn’t expect you to get married so soon. I thought you would have fun for another two or three years.”

“Haha, Hailey is gorgeous. Haven’t you seen the wedding photos? She’s amazing!”

“Unfortunately, Cayden has been conquered by a fairy. I was thinking of holding a pre-wedding bachelor party today.”

Cayden sipped his wine and stayed silent.

His friends were all very envious of him as he had had his fair share of fun and even got to marry such a beautiful woman.

However, no one knew his woes!

“By the way, Cayden, since you’re getting married, let me have some fun with Maggie, okay?”

“Yeah, I like that celeb too!”

His circle of rich scion friends all knew that he had slept with the big celebrity Maggie too.

Cayden suddenly said, “Who says I can’t have fun because I’m married? Who said I’ve been conquered by Hailey?”

“Maggie is mine, don’t think of snatching her from me.”

His friends started egging him on.

“Hah, I don’t believe it. I see you are quite henpecked towards Hailey. If you have the guts, call Maggie and ask her to come here now.”

Cayden thought about it. Hailey was now in Orlando, and he would be sending a convoy of luxury cars to pick her up on the day of the wedding.

“Sure, I haven’t heard Maggie sing to me for a long time too!”

Chapter 164: Ex-Wife Gets Remarried!

Cayden was a scion of a top family in the country.

Basically, he would be able to get his hands on all the female celebrities in the entertainment industry except for those who had powerful backers and those who strongly abide by their principles.

Some celebrities would explicitly state their price, while some would sleep with him for free because they wanted to marry into a wealthy family.

Maggie was from an average family background and had suddenly risen to fame because of a reality show and became the idol of countless young people.

After becoming famous, she attracted the attention of wealthy scions like Cayden. She hooked up with him after being introduced to him.

In fact, celebrities also like to date megrich scions or have one-night stands with them, not only because of the money. Well, many of them rake in hefty earnings on their own too.

It was mainly because some of these celebrities, especially those with idol images, were often strictly forbidden from dating by their management agencies.

However, falling in love is inevitable for most people. No one would want to spend 100% of their time during their twenties, which are the prime years of their lives, simply working.

However, if they ever fall in love, they would have to hide their relationship from the public, and dating an ordinary person comes with more significant risks.

What if the ordinary person was just using them for clout or exposing their romance for some other personal interests?

Thus, dating a super-rich scion is the best option since pride was also important to them, and they usually wouldn’t show off their relationships with celebrities.

At 7 am.

Jade Villa.

Jordan had already washed up and made breakfast.

He patted Victoria, who was still asleep, and said, “Darling, it’s 7 am. It’s time for you to go to work.”

Jordan still didn’t know that Victoria was now out of job.

Victoria opened her eyes and said, “I’m not feeling well. I’m not going today.”

Jordan touched Victoria’s forehead and found that she wasn’t feverish, but he realized that Victoria seemed highly fatigued.

“Victoria, what’s making you feel unwell? Do you want me to take you to the hospital for a look?”

Victoria shook her head and said, “I’ll be fine after I sleep for a little while longer. You don’t need to bother about me. You go ahead with your work.”

Since Jordan started cohabiting with Victoria, it was the first time that she had fallen ill.

Seeing that she was unwell, how could Jordan be at ease with leaving her alone at home?

He made only about a thousand dollars as a courier deliverer, which simply put him in the poverty class in a first-tier metropolis like New York City. There was almost nothing he could afford with such a meager wage.

Jordan was not actually penniless anyway, so missing work didn’t matter to him.

Thus, Jordan did not go to work and stayed home with her.

At 10 am, Jordan was drinking tea in the living room and reading the latest issue of Forbes business magazine.

He suddenly heard the commotion outside the villa. There was an endless stream of luxury cars cruising in, and there were flowers on each of them.

The front of the Mercedes-Benz G-wagon at the front of the convoy was decorated with a heart-shaped floral wreath.

Jordan knew that today was the day of Hailey’s and Cayden’s wedding, and Cayden had just picked Hailey up.

“Ah.”

Jordan couldn’t help but sigh.

It really didn’t occur to Jordan that his ex-wife would get married again at a place so near him!

He initially thought that he would not see all of this!

Although he wanted to turn a blind eye, he could not help but continue to look out the window.

From where he was standing, it was possible to see the situation in front of Hailey’s villa.

The Mercedes Benz stopped, and Cayden first got out of the car from the back seat before carrying Hailey out.

“Woo~”

The crowd cheered with excitement, and many were spraying party string.

Clad in a white wedding dress, Hailey smiled blissfully as she was held in Cayden’s arms.

“Hailey Camden…”

Seeing this scene, Jordan felt a little sour!

He did hate Hailey and her betrayal. He no longer loved her either!

However, the two of them had been married for three years after all, and it hadn’t been long since they had separated.

Jordan hadn’t completely forgotten her, so he was still irked to see her get married to another man in such a short period!

‘Just a month ago, she was clearly still coddled in my arms and calling me her Hubby coquettishly. She’d ask for a morning kiss every single day and insist on drinking lemon water made by me…’

‘When I think of these events now, it feels as if they happened a century ago…’

‘How intoxicating are those beautiful memories!’

Hailey would not be wearing a wedding dress and laying in Cayden’s arms if Jordan did not pretend to be expelled from the Steele family.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.

Jordan had to do it!

Just as Jordan felt nostalgic about the past, he suddenly saw a familiar figure through the floor-to-ceiling window.

It was Stella!

“Stella’s here! She must be here to visit Victoria.”

After Jordan saw Stella, he immediately put down his teacup and went out of the villa to greet her.

“Miss Weston.”

Jordan walked up and called out to Stella.

By this time, Cayden had already carried Hailey into the villa, and a group of his friends had followed him in too.

She was a little surprised to see Jordan. “Oh, it’s you, Jordan.”

Jordan asked, “Miss Weston, are you here to visit Victoria because you knew that she’s not feeling well? You two really are best friends.”

To his surprise, Stella seemed a little awkward as she asked, “Victoria is feeling unwell? What’s wrong with her?”

Jordan was curious. “Don’t you know? Didn’t she inform you that she’d take a day off?”

“Take a day off?” Stella guessed that Jordan still didn’t know what was going on and said, “Jordan, Victoria hasn’t told you yet, has she? She’s no longer working at Stella Cosmetics.”

“What? Why?”

Jordan was bewildered.

Obviously too embarrassed to tell him the reason, Stella pointed to the front and said, “Well, let’s talk about it some other time. I still have something to do.”

She entered Cayden’s villa!

‘When did Stella get to know Cayden!?!’

Jordan was extremely curious. ‘If Stella knew Cayden a long time ago, she would have brought this up when she came the night before last.’

‘Could it be that she just got to know him?’

Jordan didn’t have time to bother with this. What he wanted to know now was Victoria’s situation!

“Victoria, Victoria.”

Jordan ran to the room and woke up Victoria.

“Victoria, are you not working for Stella Cosmetics anymore?”

Victoria had also woken up long ago, and after sitting up, asked, “How did you know?”

Jordan said, “I just saw Stella outside the door.”

“Is she here to visit me?”

Jordan shook his head and said, “She’s here to congratulate Cayden and Hailey.”

“Hah.”

Victoria laughed in contempt.

‘Indeed, friendships formed from casual encounters are all based on interests.’

Stella knew full well that Cayden was going to drive Victoria to a dead end, yet she still befriended Cayden.

However, Victoria didn’t blame her because that’s just how business is.

Jordan put his hands on Victoria’s tender shoulders and asked, “Victoria, tell me what really happened yesterday!”

Chapter 165: Creating A Ruckus At Hailey’s Wedding!

At this moment, Victoria could no longer hide it from him.

“I’m sorry, Jordan, I shouldn’t have hidden it from you. I just didn’t want you to worry about you, so I didn’t tell you.”

“Yesterday, I went to Stella’s office, and she returned the 10 million dollars I had invested, saying that she couldn’t let me join her company.”

Jordan did not blame Victoria. Well, she had already told him everything about her past.

“Is it Cayden’s doing?” Jordan asked.

Victoria nodded and said, “Cayden Huxley wants to drive me to a dead end. He doesn’t want me to survive in New York City.”

“Yesterday, I went for interviews at more than ten companies, walking until my feet were worn and bleeding. I even contacted all the people I knew.”

“But nothing worked, no company dares to go against the Huxleys, no company is willing to hire me.”

“I’m really useless…”

Towards the end, Victoria could no longer hold her tears back.

‘Victoria is such a proud and strong woman. She has always valued her capabilities more than her beauty!’

However, at this moment, she admitted that she was an incompetent person!

“Victoria!”

Jordan pulled Victoria into his arms!

At this moment, Jordan was even more upset than Victoria!

He had no idea that Victoria had gone through such a bad day yesterday!

He actually implicated his girlfriend and caused her to suffer such mistreatment because of him!

Jordan was indignant, and when he thought about what Cayden had done to Victoria, he couldn’t control his emotions anymore!

“Jordan, where are you going?”

Jordan suddenly shook off Victoria and got up to walk out.

“I’m going to settle scores with Cayden Huxley!”

Jordan had already been merciful enough to spare his life in Orlando, and the punishment he gave him was much less severe than that that Tyler suffered.

Yet, Cayden didn’t know any better and dared to mess with Jordan’s woman!

Jordan stormed furiously to the villa next door, which was Cayden and Hailey’s matrimonial home.

The door was open because they were expecting many guests, so he could enter at will.

Jordan walked into the hall to see Cayden and Hailey standing on the stairs and heading for the second floor.

“Cayden Huxley! Come out!”

Jordan’s furious roar made the commotion in the villa quiet down.

Everyone was looking at Jordan with bewilderment and hatred.

Seeing this scene, Stella, who was standing at the door, quickly slipped away quietly.

As she walked out of the door, she saw Victoria, who hadn’t even washed her face and was dashing over in her slippers.

Of course, she was also worried that something might happen to Jordan.

Stella pulled Victoria and remarked, “Oh my goodness, Victoria, why are you wearing pajamas? There are so many rich scions there, how can you go there dressed like this? Let’s go inside and get you a change of clothes before coming out again.”

“But Jordan…” Victoria was still worried about Jordan.

Stella pulled Victoria and said, “Let Jordan handle this matter himself, don’t get blindly involved.”

Stella forcibly pulled Victoria back to the villa to get changed.

Inside Cayden’s villa.

Hailey was shocked to see the murderous gaze in Cayden’s eyes when he looked at Jordan.

‘Is Jordan going to wreck Hailey’s wedding?’

When Hailey and Tyler got married, Jordan showed up at their wedding and stole their limelight by causing a huge commotion.

Is it Cayden’s turn to be unlucky this time?

To everyone’s surprise, a strong and muscular man with an extraordinary aura stood forth for Cayden.

He was Cayden’s brother, Shane.

Shane ran directly to Jordan, leaped up, and threw a flying kick at him!

“Damn! Shane is so cool!”

“Shane is comparable to special-ops officers!”

Shane was different from Cayden, who was handsome, thin, and weak.

Shane was not as handsome as he was, but he was strong and more mature.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Since he was wearing slippers and couldn’t kick properly, he blocked the kicks with his hands.

Ordinary people may not catch the kicks easily, but Jordan could easily catch Shane’s attacks.

Jordan looked at Shane and said, “You should have practiced for a few years, but you are not my opponent. If you don’t want to die, don’t interfere!”

Shane humphed coldly and exclaimed, “You’re Jordan Steele, right? Cayden is my younger brother. How could I let you behave in such an unbridled manner here!?!”

Previously, Cayden had had his finger broken and was poisoned with a drug that made him infertile.

Shane was furious and had long wanted to kill Jordan!

At this point, his friends were also curious about Jordan’s background!

“Is he here to snatch the bride?”

“He might be the ex-boyfriend of Cayden’s wife!”

“What ex-boyfriend? I heard my friends say that Hailey has been married once. He might be her ex-husband!”

“Seriously? Cayden’s marrying a divorcée?”

The guests were standing together and whispering among themselves.

Cayden stormed downstairs furiously, pointed at Jordan, and barked, “Jordan Steele! What are you doing trespassing in my house!? Are you looking for trouble!?!”

Jordan retorted in exasperation, “Since you messed with my girlfriend, you should have known that I would come to settle scores with you!”

When Hailey saw this scene, she quickly pulled her wedding dress up and dashed downstairs. She said to Jordan, “Come with me.”

Hailey took Jordan’s hand and led him away from the villa because she didn’t want the two of them to argue in front of so many people.

After all, she and Cayden didn’t want their relatives and friends to know that Hailey used to be married to Jordan.

Hailey pulled Jordan along and involuntarily followed her out because he didn’t know how to turn her down.

Jordan had seen Hailey in a wedding gown twice, but none of which was for him!

They walked out and stood on the lawn. Hailey questioned, “Jordan Steele, what do you mean by this!?!”

“When Tyler and I got married, you came to create trouble and kicked up a ruckus at my wedding.”

“Now that I’m getting married to Cayden, you’re doing it again!”

“Are you just that indignant? You can’t stand seeing me happy, huh? Will you be happy only if you embarrass me and make me suffer?”

Jordan didn’t know what to say either. “Hailey, I didn’t deliberately disrupt your wedding, nor do I intend to ruin your happiness.”

“I came here today purely because of Cayden Huxley. Yesterday, Victoria went for a job interview at more than ten companies, but Cayden Huxley ruined things for her every single time.”

“He wants to ruin Victoria’s future in New York! I have to get a clear explanation from him!”

Hailey humphed coldly, but her face was still so perfect.

“And you say you’re not deliberately disrupting my marriage? That happened yesterday. Why must you ask about it today?”

“I just found out too…” Jordan explained.

Hailey stretched out her slender hand and said, “Enough, you don’t need to explain. I understand that it’s all because you still love me, and you can’t stand watching me get married to someone else, right?”

“Hmph, you’re hemming and hawing and making up so many excuses.. I’d rather you cry and say to me that you still love me and that you can’t forget me. I’d rather you get on your knees to beg me to give you another chance!”
