THE ABANDONED HUSBAND DOMINATES

Chapter 35: Jordan Still Loves Me!

Even after driving out of the underground parking lot of an office building in the center of the city, she still seemed to hear Hailey's cries and complaints.

Hailey had always been a proud and arrogant person, so she obviously couldn't stand being slapped in public.

While driving, Jordan said to Victoria, who was beside him. “Victoria, you don't have to interfere in the affairs between Hailey and me. Don't slap him again.”

Victoria knew that Jordan felt heartache for his ex-wife!

Victoria said, "Yes, Mr. Steele, but don't you hate him for treating you like that?"

Jordan smiled and said, “Love is the opposite of hate. Without Love, how can there be hatred?”

Hearing Jordan's rather philosophical words, Victoria no longer saw him as an inexperienced youth.

Being a descendant of a prestigious family, his knowledge and ideology cannot be underestimated.

Jordan is handsome, comes from a wealthy family, has a unique mindset, and is very generous and affectionate towards women.

Victoria is falling in love with him.

'I must win her heart!' Victoria thought to herself.

Tens of minutes later, Jordan and Victoria arrive at a place called the Golden Pavilion.

Surrounded by greenery and lakes, it offers a beautiful view. There is a half-finished museum next to a place that looks like a resort.

After getting out of the car, Jordan looked around him and said, "The Camdens are planning to build a high-end private residence here."

'Upper-class private residence' was a project that Camdens asked to invest in by Ace Corporation. It was a private residence meant for upper-level families.

According to Camdens proposal, there will eventually be more than ten Western-style villas inside the residence.

The interior is made of pine wood, with full-size glass windows that offer stunning views of the outside.

Their intention was to create the most distinctive and beautiful private residence in the city.

Victoria nodded and said, “This is her residence. This is the place with the greenest plants in the city. There are many maple trees, and after moving, the residence can picnic in the maple forest. There are also natural springs here.”

“I believe that rich people in Orlando will definitely buy and move to villas here. But Mr Steele, are you really planning to invest money in their project? Camdens has treated you too outrageously!”

Jordan smiled and said, “Actually, I was the one who triggered the concept of this project.”

"What's? Does that mean Camdens stole your idea?” Victoria asked in surprise.

Jordan shook his head and said, “You can't say that. I can say that the Camdens always wanted to be comfortable with the upper family of the city, but Hailey's grandfather had kicked the bucket. Herman and Benedict Camden were equally incompetent as well. All they do is fight over their family's asset legacy.”

“So, I came up with this project for Camdens, which will allow them to control a top-tier family without the need to upgrade their abilities. The idea is to only develop private residential estates only for those high-class families.”

“I told Hailey about this idea, and she then told her grandmother about it. Although he accepted the idea, he let Herman Camden take over the project.”

Victoria said, “The Camdens are indeed more biased towards Herman Camden and his son. They tend to favor men over women and think that Hailey Camden is not quite fit to inherit the family empire. I pity him for that.”

Jordan nodded and agreed, “Ya, Hailey has always been underestimated by her family, and her parents have always put pressure on her. However, they arranged for him to marry the surviving daughter-in-law.”.

A leaf of maple that floated in the wind landed in Victoria's hair. After taking it out for her, Jordan said, "Victoria, drink it with me."

…

"Drink! Drink with me!”

In a residential area of New City, Hailey holds a glass of wine accompanied by a beautiful woman at her side. She was his best friend, Rachel Quinn.

Rachel took Hailey's glass from him and asked, “Hailey, what's wrong with you today? Who oppressed you? Tell me, and I'll teach him a lesson!”

Hailey snapped in annoyance, “That's a girl ****, Victoria Clarke! He slapped me! I only denounced My incompetent husband, and I did not provoke him at all. What right does it have to slap me? Who is he to that useless Jordan!?!”

Rachel said with a smile, “Have you heard the saying about considering someone's boss before hitting them? Since your ex-husband is Victoria Clarke's dog now, how could he let you insult her?”

Hailey snatched the wine glass again and downed it at once.

He exclaimed desperately, “Jordan is too heartless. I only cheated once, but which beautiful woman has never cheated on her husband in this day and age? Rachel, you've even cheated twice!”

Feeling a little embarrassed, Rachel poured herself a glass of wine and replied, “Why are you talking about me? Not that my husband caught me with a red hand.”

Hailey said, “She's just a daughter-in-law who lives in the house that spoils us. Even if he knew, why couldn't he just stand it? ”

"Rachel, you know? I told him to kneel in front of me, but he refused. However, she knelt down to apologize to Victoria and was even willing to become her bodyguard. Why would he do that? I can also give him money!”

Rachel twirled the wine glass in her hand and smiled, "According to my understanding of Jordan, she loves you so much, and she won't move away that easily."

"She must have turned you down and become Victoria Clarke's bodyguard to impress you!"

"Huh?" Hailey was a little conscious, but she was confused by Rachel's words.

Rachel explained, “Think about that. If he used your money, he would definitely still feel like a freelancer, but if he got his own money from someone else, he would be able to hold his head up high in front of you.”

"I'm sure Jordan is trying to make a name for himself out there so he'll be worthy enough to propose to you!"

After thinking about it, Hailey slowly smiled and said, “Hmph, I know this bastard still loves me, but I won't wait for him. Anyway, now that I'm divorced, I can find another man who matches me. Tyler comes from a rich family, but he's too playboy. He's also not as thorough as Jordan.”

Rachel said, “You can marry Tyler Collins and divorce her the most if it doesn't work out in the end. You can then marry Jordan again. A naive person like him would definitely agree.”

Hailey nodded and agreed, "Good idea."

Seeing Hailey much more relaxed, Rachel clinks a glass with him. She said casually, “Hey, by the way, hasn't Jordan always been a housewife? Why did he suddenly start delivering takeout in the last six months?”

Hailey took a sip of wine and wiped her lips before answering, “He seemed to have some illnesses when we traveled to Switzerland six months ago. She needed money for treatment, but she did not want to ask us, so she started working for money herself.”

"Oh." Rachel did not investigate any further and continued drinking with Hailey.

At 8am the next day.

Hailey, who was not yet fully conscious, answered the phone call in a daze.

On the other end of the phone, the guy said, “Hailey is coming to Grandma's place soon. I found evidence Jordan sold watches!”
