Chapter 236: Learning Of An Important Piece of News
Nate looked at the seemingly gentle but ferocious gaze in Jordan’s eyes and said fearfully, “No… No… We just watched a movie together, and we’re good friends. I really don’t harbor any other thoughts about her!”
Jordan obviously wouldn’t believe him even though he was pretending to be a nice guy now.
Since Nate was really short, Jordan put his arm around him and continued to walk towards the strength training equipment.
“Oh, you just watched a movie with her, huh? What movie was it?”
Nate didn’t know what Jordan intended to do, so he simply walked alongside him and answered, “God… Godzilla.”
Jordan continued to ask, “How long was the movie?”
Nate replied nervously, “Two… two hours.”
The two gradually reached the strength training equipment area and stopped.
Subsequently, Jordan grabbed a 10 kg dumbbell from the weights rack in the equipment area and handed it to Nate. “Lift this up for two hours.”
“What? Two hours?” Nate was confused.
Jordan said seriously, “If you stop, I’ll send you to accompany your best friend.”
Jordan knew that Nate had hypocritically cheated Emily out of her feelings to make her hold his hand.
In that case, Jordan would take revenge on his hand and not touch the other parts of his body.
“Sir…”
“There’s no point in calling me that. Hurry up and lift it, or else, I’ll throw you out!”
“Okay, I’ll do it, I’ll do it!”
Nate slowly lifted the dumbbell up before putting it down slowly again.
“Faster!”
Jordan began training him as a personal trainer.
Nate started to speed up, but he soon got so tired that he couldn’t lift his arms anymore.
However, he didn’t dare to put down the dumbbell for fear that once he did, Jordan would throw him over to where Kane was and let him drown in spit.
However, Nate couldn’t sustain any longer after ten minutes and dropped the dumbbell on the ground.
Without another word, Jordan immediately proceeded to grab him in a bid to bring him over to the other side.
Nate burst into tears immediately. “Jordan! Please don’t do that, I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have provoked Emily. It’s all because of that bastard Kane Gayle. He couldn’t win her heart, so he made me do it. I’m innocent!”
Jordan humphed coldly and berated, “Now you’re blaming your brother? Why did you get Cayden Huxley to court her when you failed to do so yourself?! You’re a bunch of good-for-nothings!”
The more Jordan thought about it, the angrier he got, and he kicked Nate hard.
Nate almost couldn’t catch his breath and kept coughing incessantly.
“I… I’m sorry.”
Soon, those hundred people stopped spitting, and Pablo walked over to report to Jordan.
“Do you want me to pull that punk over?” Pablo asked.
Jordan looked at Kane from afar, his face and body covered in saliva. He looked extremely disgusting.
“Take him inside for a shower, then drag him out,” Jordan instructed.
“Yes!”
Pablo’s subordinates took Kane for a shower, and when he came out all fresh and clean, he knelt down in front of Jordan with Nate.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Jordan, we won’t dare to do it again. Please spare us.”
“I was wrong, Mr. Jordan. You are generous and magnanimous. Please don’t stoop to our level.”
The two incredibly wealthy scions of New York City were already petrified after being tormented by Jordan.
As Jordan was not the type to drive others to a corner, he asked the two of them, “Are you going to play this boring game where you’ll send one of you to replace the one that fails to get the girl?”
Kane hurriedly said, “We won’t dare to do so again. I won’t dare to woo a girl again in my life!”
Nate also said, “In fact, ever since I got beaten up for courting a girl, I’ve long wanted to quit playing this game. We’ll disband our group and never do such things again!”
Jordan was still doubtful after hearing his words. “You got hit after courting a girl? Was that girl Emily? Who hit you?”
Nate hurriedly shook his head and answered, “No, it’s an owner of a café who’s really pretty. Although she’s already a mother of one, she took my breath away the moment I glanced at her.”
“However, when I tried to pursue her, I somehow got beaten up into a pulp.”
“Kane got beaten up by his father too.”
Jordan suddenly became severe.
‘Is the owner of a café who has a daughter, the lady whom I previously mistook for Jamie’s lover!?!’
He suddenly remembered that Arnold had secretly taken a picture of the personal locker belonging to Cayden and the others. On a photo of the lady, Kane annotated: “Strong background, do not provoke.”
Jordan was very curious about his brother’s “lover” so he asked Kane, “Your dad hit you? Why?”
Kane nodded. “After Nate failed, I also planned to pursue that café owner, but I wanted to find out her background before doing so. Hence, I asked my dad to help me investigate.”
“Who knows? My father slapped me after investigating and warned me not to toy with her. He said that I could toy with any woman I wanted except her!”
“As long as I do, my family would be finished!”
Jordan was a little stunned. Kane was a wealthy scion of a family that owned a bank.
According to what Kane said, this woman’s status was probably superior to his!
Indeed, she was the wife of a wealthy man!
Jordan asked, “What exactly is that woman’s background like?”
Kane said, “I asked my father the exact question, but he told me to just obey him and not touch her.”
“Later on, he was willing to tell me, only when I pestered him incessantly. This woman is from DC, and she has a very powerful family background. It’s not as simple as any other rich family.”
Jordan nodded. There were indeed many hidden forces and powerful people in a place like New York City and DC.
Even in Orlando, there was someone like Jordan, the scion of a mysterious but extremely powerful family, who stayed there for three years.
It wasn’t that strange that a café owner actually belonged to a prominent family in DC.
Thinking of this, Jordan became even more interested in that woman.
‘Why did Jamie leave his keys here? Is he really planning to introduce her to me because he thinks she’s pretty, just like what Audrey said?’
‘But Jamie must know her background. If I had really pursued her, wouldn’t I have been beaten up by her husband, just like these idiotic scions?”
While thinking about it, Jordan turned to look at the two of them and then asked, “Did Cayden Huxley also fail in wooing her?”
Among the five scions, Cayden was the richest, tallest, and most handsome one. He even managed to win Hailey’s heart, so generally speaking, there were few women he couldn’t handle.
Kane said, “Cayden chickened out and didn’t dare to try his luck with her. After having some coffee at her café, he returned and surrendered on his own by admitting defeat. Since our clique was established, she’s the only woman we haven’t gotten any success with! She really isn’t ordinary at all!”
*Spit*
Jordan spat on Kane’s face again because he hadn’t done so even though those hundred people had already spat on him just now.
Jordan said, “What do you mean the only one? You people failed to get fresh with Emily too! Do you think that bastard Cayden got it? He can forget about getting his hands on Emily for the rest of his life!”
“Yes, yes, yes, I was wrong.” Although Kane had been spat on, he didn’t feel a single trace of humiliation at all. Everything was settled with one wipe.
It seemed that quantity really causes a qualitative change. After being spat on by so many people, Kane was no longer that affected by the saliva.
At this moment, Nate suddenly said, “Although Cayden took the initiative to admit defeat and did not dare to pursue her, he managed to have a good chat with that woman in the café and even obtained some extremely useful information!”
“What do you mean?” Jordan asked.
Nate and Kane answered in unison, “That woman doesn’t have a husband!”
Chapter 237: What A Familiar Feeling
“She doesn’t have a husband?”
Jordan was surprised because he had been curious about who the female café owner’s husband was since he met her.
At first, Jordan also suspected that her husband was his brother, Jamie, but she denied it vehemently.
Hence, Jordan thought that she might just be an ordinary married woman who has a daughter.
However, Kane and the others said that this woman didn’t have a husband.
“What do you mean she doesn’t have a husband? Did she get divorced, or is she widowed?” Jordan asked.
Kane shook his head and said, “We’re not sure, but after Cayden returned, he has been regretting his decision to marry Hailey, and he kept saying that he wouldn’t have married Hailey if he had met that woman earlier. He even said that she was truly the one for him.”
Nate said, “Yes, Cayden is already married now, so he doesn’t dare to flirt with that woman. After all, she has quite an impressive family background. If she finds out that he’s toying with her despite being a married man, Cayden will receive his retribution.”
Jordan was a little surprised because Cayden was considered to have dated many exquisite beauties. Yet, that woman had the ability to make him regret. It seemed that she was indeed attractive.
Jordan was also getting even more curious about this woman.
“Okay, you guys can go back. Don’t get up to such nonsensical things again in the future. Otherwise, I’ll have a thousand people spit on you next time!”
Jordan warned the two of them.
“Yes, we won’t dare to do it again.”
Kane and Nate got up and frantically walked out of the gym.
These two wealthy scions of New York City had never been so humiliated before.
After the two left, Pablo walked up and asked, “These two punks have been taught a lesson. Mr. Jordan, do you want to go teach them a lesson?”
Jordan looked at the time and said, “They’re just a few punks who are not qualified enough for me to teach them a lesson one by one. You may just send someone to go teach them a lesson. Now, take a few people with you and accompany me somewhere.”
“Yes!” Pablo answered respectfully.
Jordan chatted with Mr. Lee for a while and Mr. Lee gave Jordan a lifetime diamond-tier VIP membership card that would allow him to come here and spend as much as he wanted.
After walking out of the gym, Jordan got inside a car and set off to Café Nostalgia in the suburbs of New York City.
Jordan would like to see this woman again!
The last time he met her, he thought she was pure and lovely, but after learning that she was the daughter of an extremely wealthy family, he felt that she was pretty unique.
How could a rich girl of her status open a small cafe in the suburbs?
Jordan reckoned that it wouldn’t be an issue for her to rent the most expensive shopfronts in New York City and set up a hundred stores.
Filled with doubts and curiosity, Jordan pushed the door to enter.
Jordan entered the café alone while Pablo and the other underlings stood guard outside.
Ring ring…
The Japanese Edo windchime hanging on the door once again reminded the woman of the arrival of a customer.
There were still no customers in the café, only the woman and her daughter.
‘The first time I was here, there were no customers. The second time I was here, there were no customers either. This time, there still aren’t any customers.’
Only then did Jordan realize that this was not a coincidence.
Even if it was in the suburbs, the coffees here were extremely expensive. They cost 20 dollars a cup.
However, the woman’s beauty was enough to attract lots of customers.
Thinking about what Nate said just now about getting a beating, Jordan realized that there was definitely someone protecting this woman and her daughter in the vicinity!
If someone were to develop lustful thoughts and tried to pursue or harass her, that person would be beaten up into pulp the moment he leaves!
That was also why Jordan had Pablo stand guard outside to find out if there was a bodyguard.
“Welcome.” The woman smiled.
This time, she was wearing a high-waisted bustier dress, still exposing her long and fair legs.
It was now close to November, and it was already cold in New York City.
Jordan said smilingly, “Hi, here I am again. You’re wearing so little. It seems that I got to see your excellent figure all three times I was here.”
As Jordan spoke, he pointed to her long, straight legs.
His words may sound disrespectful, but he was here with the deliberate intention to flirt with her.
He really wanted to know what kind of result he would get if he tried to pursue and harass her.
‘Perhaps, this is what Jamie is looking forward to seeing, huh?’
Jordan had been trying to get in touch with Jamie, but he hadn’t been able to contact him. Hence, he thought that Jamie was just too busy with his training to answer him.
However, Jordan learned that Jamie had contacted Audrey in private, but he ignored Jordan’s messages.
The pretty woman did not feel offended. Instead, she smiled and said, “Thank you, most women like to look good. Besides, the temperatures aren’t that cold yet.”
“Would you like to have a vanilla latte as usual?”
Jordan glanced at a spot that was far away and saw that her daughter was already sleeping.
Hence, Jordan boldly walked forward and inched very close to the pretty woman, who retreated incessantly until she no longer had any space.
“What… are you trying to do?” The pretty woman leaned against the wall and asked, running out of breath.
Jordan did not expect this woman to be that nervous. Strictly speaking, if there were bodyguards outside, her heart wouldn’t be beating so rapidly.
Jordan propped himself against the wall with one hand, slowly lowered his head, pretending to want to kiss her. He said softly, “You still remember my previous order. Do you have a crush on me?”
“I heard that you are divorced. Should we date each other?”
The pretty woman was breathing heavily, her body quivering nervously as she stared deadly at Jordan, but there was no horror in her eyes.
She looked at Jordan without blinking as if she hadn’t had the chance to look at him before this.
At that very moment, Jordan heard the sounds of fighting outside the door.
However, those sounds soon disappeared.
A smile appeared on Jordan’s face, and he finally pulled away. “I’m sorry, Ma’am, I didn’t mean to offend you just now. I just wanted to test if there was a bodyguard outside your door.”
“You’re gorgeous, and many rich scions are harboring designs on you. Besides, you’re the woman Jamie has arranged to meet me. I have to pay attention to your safety.”
“I’m relieved to know that you have someone to protect you.”
“Oh, by the way, don’t take what I just said seriously. I have a girlfriend, and I’m going to propose to her next year.”
“I’ll have coffee here another day. I have to get going now.”
Jordan took out his cell phone and scanned the QR code to transfer $4,000 to her.
Pablo should have subdued her bodyguard outside the door, so the money was considered medical expenses.
Ring ring…
As the Edo windchime rang again, Jordan disappeared from the pretty woman’s sight.
However, after Jordan left, she was still leaning against the wall, not moving a single inch.
She suddenly closed her eyes and said to herself with a smile on her face, ‘What a familiar feeling…’
Chapter 238: A Woman Who Looks Like Victoria!
After coming out of Café Nostalgia, Jordan got into Pablo’s car parked at the roadside.
Right after getting into the car, Jordan asked, “You didn’t hit too hard, right?”
Pablo said, “No, this cafe owner’s bodyguard is powerful and capable. If I didn’t bring all the elites here today, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t have been able to subdue them in a short period.”
“Oh?” Jordan did not expect the pretty woman’s bodyguard to be that impressive.
Nowadays, all wealthy men will go out with bodyguards, but the strength of the bodyguards varies.
Elite underlings like Pablo were bought with money.
Pablo asked, “Mr. Jordan, have you fallen in love with the woman in this cafe?”
Jordan shook his head and said, “I’m just curious, and I was testing her. I keep having a feeling that she is not as innocent as she seems.”
When Jordan pretended to kiss her just now, she was breathing heavily, but there was no fear in her eyes, and she was looking straight at him without dodging.
Jordan was an expert at reading micro-expressions, and he realized that this woman was definitely not simple!
“Pablo, starting tomorrow, send someone to monitor this café and see what this woman usually does and who she sees.”
Jordan instructed.
“Yes!”
However, the following day, Pablo called Jordan and said, “Mr. Jordan, that woman didn’t come today, and the cafe is closed. There’s even a subletting notice on the door.”
Jordan was somewhat stunned. ‘Did she decide to close the café because of what I did yesterday?’
However, this woman had nothing to do with Jordan after all. He was now dating Victoria and didn’t bother courting her.
Perhaps, like most other people, Jordan and her would part ways forever after just meeting once.
A month later.
In Capital Flora nightclub in New York City.
“Mr. Decker! Haha, come in and take a seat.”
In the private room, Cayden and Nate got up to greet Arnold.
Arnold was still dressed in a suit and tie, and he was in higher spirits than before.
Cayden greeted Arnold and said with a smile, “Mr. Decker, is your company on steroids? Why is the stock price skyrocketing? Breezy Express can’t even catch up!”
Arnold smiled and took a seat while a beautiful woman beside him immediately lit a cigarette for him.
Arnold laughed and said, “Thanks to the leadership of the two outstanding beauties, Miss Audrey and Miss Clarke, that we can achieve what we have today at Perry Express!”
“Haha, Cayden, we are also considered old friends, and I’m not going to hide it from you. I’ve actually been thinking all these years about when Perry Express can surpass Breezy Express. Still, I didn’t expect it to be so soon!”
Cayden was so furious that he gritted his teeth and cursed this old man.
Nate, who was beside him, had been drinking.
Since the last time Jordan abused him in the gym, he and Kane had complained to Cayden about it.
When Kane and Nate were in the gym, they both knelt down to Jordan.
However, after they left the gym, they started to wonder if they should take revenge against Jordan for the humiliation that they had suffered!
Hence, they went to Cayden to ask about Jordan’s background.
Cayden told them that Emily was the future sister-in-law of his grandfather’s sworn brother, Russell.
He wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences of failure if Russell were to find out.
Cayden guessed that Jordan dared to mess with his best friends because Victoria had instructed him to do so.
He didn’t want to blow things up because of Russell.
Cayden laughed and said, “Mr. Decker, you may be a successful businessman, but you’re not doing well in love. I heard that now Victoria completely treats you as a subordinate.”
“Tsk, at this rate, you can never get her. Which woman will like her subordinate? Aren’t I right?”
Nate laughed and said, “That’s right, Mr. Decker, you and your wife are living separately. It must be tough being all by yourself. Cayden and I have specially arranged something for you.”
With a sullen expression, Arnold quickly refuted, “I said, don’t set me up with random women. I won’t accept them.”
Saying that Arnold pushed away from the woman who was lighting cigarettes and pouring wine for him.
Cayden laughed and explained, “Of course, I’m not sending random women to accompany you, Mr. Decker.”
“Go outside,” Cayden said to the woman who was quite pretty.
After the woman left, Cayden snapped his fingers, and soon, a woman wearing a professional business suit entered!
As soon as the woman walked in, Arnold stood up in astonishment.
“Miss… Miss Clarke?”
Arnold mistakenly thought that the person who entered was Victoria!
However, when the woman came closer, he realized that she wasn’t Victoria.
“She’s not Victoria.” Arnold sat down again.
Cayden and Nate both laughed out loud while Cayden patted Arnold’s thigh and asked, “How about this one? Do they look alike?”
Arnold was extremely emotional. “Yes! They look so alike, especially their eyes, and the way they dress. Victoria usually likes to wear Chanel business suits too.”
“Amazing! Cayden, how did you do that?”
Nowadays, plastic surgery procedures have become unbelievably advanced.
He reckoned that even Jordan, Victoria’s boyfriend, would mistake this woman for Victoria!
The resemblance was too remarkable!
Cayden knew that Arnold had been coveting Victoria, and he was eager to drag Arnold down. Thus, she went to get plastic surgery.
The woman who resembled Victoria hurriedly sat next to Arnold and respectfully poured a glass of wine for him, “Mr. Decker, please drink.”
“Oh. Good.” Arnold smiled and took the glass.
Then, the woman said, “Mr. Decker must be tired from working all day, right? Let me give you a shoulder massage.”
Although the woman was pouring wine and giving Arnold a massage, Arnold’s expression slowly turned from delighted to deadpan.
Cayden could tell what Arnold was thinking. “What’s the matter, Mr. Decker?”
Arnold shook his head and said, “Unfortunately, she only looks like her. Her mannerisms are completely different. She doesn’t act like the boss at all.”
Everyone knew that Victoria was an aloof president of the company who was now Arnold’s superior. There was no way she’d speak to Arnold that respectfully.
Cayden slapped the woman who resembled Victoria on the face, but not too hard because he was afraid that he might damage her newly done nose.
Cayden said angrily, “Get out and do it again!”
“Yes.” The woman covered her face and obediently walked out of the private room.
Half an hour later…
The woman pushed open the door of the room again, but this time, she was no longer as deferential as she was just now and was instead more aloof.
The woman did not sit next to Arnold but casually found a seat and sat down cross-legged in a domineering manner.
“Cayden, come and pour me a glass of wine.” The woman instructed Cayden.
Cayden obediently picked up the bottle and walked over. “Yes, Victoria, you look gorgeous today. What material is your outfit made of? Let me take a look.”
The woman snapped with displeasure, “Outrageous! Your father and I are considered to be of the same status. How dare you speak this disrespectfully?
At this moment, the smile on Arnold’s face gradually became unrestrained, and he exclaimed happily, “Yes, this is the feeling! This is what it feels like! This is Victoria! This is the Miss Clarke I’ve been thinking abbot! Victoria, I’m here!”
Arnold’s eyes were like that of a lion as he stared at the woman who looked like Victoria.
Chapter 239: Victoria’s Scandal!
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!”
7:30 am.
Jade Villa.
Victoria had already woken up and finished washing up by this time. She had also changed into her Chanel business suit that she often wore.
While she was spraying perfume on herself in front of the mirror, Jordan got out of bed, hugged her from behind, and asked, “Honey, what do you want for breakfast? I’ll prepare it for you.”
Victoria smiled blissfully, looked at Jordan through the mirror, and said, “I suddenly want to have some chicken nuggets. Make some chicken nuggets, and we’ll pair them with milk.”
“Alright, I’ll get to it now.”
Jordan let go of Victoria and was just about to go make breakfast.
Ding-Dong.
Ding-Dong.
They received a notification on their cell phones at the same time.
Both of them worked at the same company in the same industry now, and thus, they had downloaded the same apps on their cell phones, so it wasn’t strange for them to receive a notification at the same time.
Hence, both of them took out their cell phone and looked at what the notification was.
It was a notification from Twitter regarding a tweet posted by a business account they were both following.
The content, on the other hand, gave them both a great shock.
“The president and deputy president of Perry Express share a passionate kiss in the hotel elevator, and walk into a hotel room, hand in hand!”
They tapped it to see that it was a photo of Arnold and Victoria kissing each other passionately in the elevator!
There were also photos of them entering a hotel room intimately, hand in hand!
Jordan froze on the spot because, from the angle and clarity of the photo, the woman in the photo did seem to be Victoria. The woman in the photograph was even wearing the suit that Victoria was wearing now!
It was exactly the same!
As Victoria’s boyfriend, Jordan was obviously upset to see those photos!
Victoria also saw them, and she hurriedly put her cell phone down and walked towards Jordan.
She explained, “Honey, I swear, I definitely didn’t go to a hotel with Arnold Decker. The person in those photos isn’t me!”
Perhaps, Victoria felt that the woman in the photo really resembled her, and she knew that Jordan might not believe her.
Hence, to get Jordan’s trust, Victoria got on her knees right on the spot and raised her right hand. “I, Victoria Clarke, solemnly swear that if I have been unfaithful to you, I…”
Before Victoria could finish, Jordan stopped her and helped her up. “Victoria, we’ve known each other for such a long time, and our relationship is so strong. How can I possibly not trust you?”
“This must have been digitally doctored by someone. I won’t be bothered.”
“Thank you.” Victoria was really touched, and she hugged Jordan.
Afterward, the two of them carefully scrutinized the photos and comments again.
Victoria said, “These photos aren’t digitally doctored. Honey, look, this woman is shorter than I am, and her hairstyle is also different from mine. She’s just a woman who looks like me.”
Jordan looked carefully for a few moments and discovered that it was indeed as Victoria said.
“That’s incredible. Even Emily doesn’t have such a striking resemblance to you. Why does this woman look so much like you?”
Jordan was puzzled.
However, Victoria wasn’t worried about this issue. She looked at the comments and found that everyone was aware that Arnold was a married man.
As the vice president of Perry Express, Arnold being embroiled in such a scandal will cause a huge blow to Perry Express, which was currently on the rise!
“The stock price of the company is probably going to plunge!” Victoria said dejectedly.
Chapter 240: I’ll Just Forgive Her, Okay?
“Honey, I have to hurry to the company to hold a board meeting, so I won’t accompany you for breakfast.”
Victoria looked like she was in a hurry.
Jordan nodded and said, “Okay, go ahead, be careful.”
At the same time, Hailey, who was in the villa next door, had just woken up and saw the content of the trending topic on Twitter.
“Wow, “Yeah, Victoria Clarke and Arnold Decker kissed passionately in the elevator? Oh my God, Victoria Clarke cheated on Jordan?”
Hailey was now seven months pregnant, and her baby bump was large. Life was rather mundane for her and bored out of her wits every single day. Such gossipy news was exactly what she needed to perk herself up.
However, she didn’t expect to come across any news about her former husband.
She looked out the window and coincidentally saw Victoria driving away in her Porsche that zoomed away swiftly with a whoosh.
Cayden didn’t come home last night either, so Hailey immediately walked out of the villa to go look for Jordan in the villa next door.
Knock-knock.
“Jordan!”
Jordan opened the door and saw the heavily pregnant Hailey. Although she had a less svelte figure than before, her face was still as flawless as ever.
She was the most beautiful pregnant woman Jordan had ever seen.
“Why are you here?” Jordan asked.
Hailey asked cautiously, “Did you have a fight with Victoria?”
“No,” Jordan answered.
Hailey unlocked her phone and asked, “Didn’t you guys read the news?”
Jordan glanced at Hailey’s phone screen and said, “Oh, we did.”
Hailey immediately found it rather strange.” You saw the news, but you two didn’t even have a tiff? Jordan, when have you become so good-tempered that you won’t even get upset after being made a cuckold?”
Jordan said helplessly, “The woman in those photos isn’t Victoria.”
Hailey asked in surprise, “You believe such a lie? You’re so foolish. These photos weren’t digitally doctored. There are GIFs and videos to prove its authenticity!”
“Victoria has really cheated on you. You mustn’t trust her!”
Too lazy to explain to her, Jordan said, “Okay, even if she has done it, I’ve forgiven her, okay?”
“What… what?”
Hailey was stunned and at a loss for words. After deliberating over it for a while, she suddenly swung her tiny fists at him.
“You jerk. If you can forgive her, why couldn’t you forgive me back then!?!”
Hailey was now heavily pregnant, so Jordan chose not to lose his temper at her. He merely grabbed her hand and calmed her down. “Hailey, can you not bring up our past again?”
“And you’re going into labor soon, don’t get physical all the time. What if something untoward happens?”
Hailey was so furious that she stomped her foot and humphed coldly. “You still know to show concern about the baby, huh!?! You’re not a responsible father at all! Cayden hasn’t been home for a long time, and you didn’t even come over to keep the baby company and me during the day.”
Jordan said helplessly, “I have to go to work in the day.”
“Your girlfriend is the President of the company. Even if you don’t go to work, she can’t possibly fire you, can she?” Hailey said immediately afterward.
Jordan didn’t want to continue arguing with her. Instead, he changed the subject. “Hailey, your baby bump is much larger than most pregnant women in their seventh month of pregnancy. Are you carrying twins?”
Previously, Jordan had heard from Cayden that Hailey was carrying twins, but he hadn’t heard it from Hailey herself.
As the baby’s father, Jordan, of course, wanted to find out if she was carrying twins.
Hailey was clearly surprised, and she asked, “Are you hoping that I’m carrying twins? Hmph, I won’t tell you. Anyway, I’ll be going into labor in a couple of months. You can come to the hospital to take a look yourself by then!”
Jordan had an expectant look on his face.
Based on his understanding of Hailey, he knew that Hailey was pregnant with twins!
“Okay, I will definitely go to the hospital to visit you,” Jordan said.
Hailey was carrying Jordan’s child, so he, the father, of course, had to go see his child for the first time!
At this moment, Jordan’s phone rang.
“Hailey, go get some rest. I have to get busy soon,” Jordan said, chasing her away.
“Okay.” Hailey pouted and slowly left.
“Let me know in advance before you go into labor,” Jordan said.
Hailey deliberately tried to spite Jordan. “I won’t tell you, just wait to be the last one to see your baby!”
Jordan shook his head helplessly and then answered the phone. It was a call from Tim.
“What is it?”
Tim answered, “Jordan, have you seen the news? Don’t be angry. The woman in the photo who has gone to the hotel with my uncle isn’t Miss Clarke but a woman whom Cayden had deliberately sent to get plastic surgery to look like Miss Clarke.”
“She’s gone under the knife? How did you find out about this?” Jordan asked.
Tim chuckled and said, “Cayden wanted to use this trick to deal with my Uncle, you, and Perry Express, but I have the video of him using this woman to seduce my uncle.”
“Jordan, as long as we post this video, it’ll be over for Breezy Express!”,
Jordan said, “Well done. What do you want for your remuneration?”
Tim said, “I just want to work alongside you. When you’re going to abuse these rich scions again, count me in. I’ll go spit on them or something, hahaha, I just hate how they blow their trumpet and act impressive!”
Jordan laughed and said, “Go to Pablo and be his underlings.
‘”Thank you, Jordan!”
In the conference room of Perry Express.
Victoria walked to the conference room with large strides and a domineering aura. The other shareholders had already arrived long ago.
“Miss Clarke.”
“Miss Clarke.”
When they saw Victoria coming, the other shareholders all stood up to greet her.
This also included Arnold, the vice president, who was now a trending topic.
“Miss Clarke, I’m sorry…”
Arnold looked at Victoria with an apologetic expression.
Victoria was furious, and she walked up to Arnold, raised her hand, and slapped him!
Smack!
The shareholders in the conference room were all dumbfounded.
Victoria growled, “Arnold Decker, you are the deputy president of President, but you actually did such a thing! Do you know how much damage your actions will do to the company?”
“Do you know how embarrassed you’ve made my boyfriend feel?”
Despite being slapped in public, Arnold didn’t dare to be resentful. “I’m sorry, Miss Clarke, I will explain clearly to the public that the woman I was with is just someone who has gotten plastic surgery to look like you…”
Smack!
Victoria slapped him again, making all the major shareholders gasp.
Victoria said, “You are really perverted! I order to satisfy your own selfish desires, you… even got other women to look like me.”
Arnold hurriedly said, “No, it wasn’t me who found her but that little bastard Cayden who set this up to trick me!”
Victoria said mightily, “I don’t care who did it.. Anyway, Arnold Decker, you’re now fired. From now on, you are no longer an employee of Perry Express!”
