As Hailey said, Jordan also pretended to be married to Hailey.
“Oh, alright.”
Lily assented endlessly while smiling.
Hailey continued, “Granny Lily, I have good news for you. Jordan did not come from an ordinary family but a prestigious family! They are worth hundreds of billions! He is now president of a company too!”
At this point, Jordan stared at Lily's facial expression in an attempt to see if she would be surprised.
Lily smiled brighter, but she did not seem too surprised.
Instead, he said repeatedly, “Good! Huge! How lovely!"
Lily said, “My children are fine.. Ahem... The only thing I worry about...”.
Lily coughed a few times and drank some water before continuing to speak.
“Hailey worries me the most. You must get along well with Jordan, or else .. I won't be able to face my brother when I meet him in heaven … "
Although Lily does not reveal that she has long known Jordan's identity, Jordan can vaguely sense that she knows the truth.
They stopped talking to Lily because it was difficult for her to talk.
In fact, it was good enough that they could meet for the last time before he died.
It was late at night. When they left Lily's room, Devon asked, “Mr. Steele, Hailey, are you two gonna stay here or at the hotel? I've arranged rooms for you in both places.”
Lily lives in a large bungalow with several guesthouses.
Jordan pointed towards Lily's room and asked, "What did the doctor say?"
Devon said with a sad expression, "He might leave tonight or tomorrow."
Many parents will die at midnight. Since Jordan was already there, there was no point in staying in a hotel.
"We're going to impose on you for one night" Jordan said.
Devon said, “Please don't say that, Mr. Steele. It is an honor for us that you are willing to stay here. Please come with me. I'll show you to your room.”
They walked out of the room and walked across the courtyard to go to the other side where the guest room was.
The buildings around them look elegant and pleasing to the eye with brightly colored walls and tiles.
When they arrived at the guest room, Jordan found that she liked the decor.
Devon said, “My mom is very frugal, and she doesn't like things that are trendy and high-tech. Mr. Steele, Hailey, I hope you don't mind the simple furniture in this room.”
Hailey said, “Uncle Devon, you're too good. Why are we fighting it?”
Jordan said, “Yes, you're too polite. I should feel sorry for forcing you by staying here as an outsider. ”
"Um, is this the only room available?"
It's been 12 p.m., and Jordan is a little sleepy. However, he could not guarantee what might happen if he spent the night in the same room as Hailey.
After all, Hailey was a beautiful woman who had an excellent figure as well. Jordan, who has been married to her for three years and is in love with her, always wants to be close to her.
It is common for divorced couples to sleep with each other again after seeing each other frequently because of their children or other reasons.
Devon said awkwardly, “We have a few visitors this time, so all the other rooms are already filled. It's the only one that's empty, sorry.”
Hailey hurriedly said, “It's okay, Uncle Devon, go ahead and continue what you have to do. We'll just sit here and rest. ”
“Alright, rest. I'll go now.”
"I will!"
After Devon left, Jordan took a pillow from under the bed and pulled out a large hairy carpet from the closet, which he placed on the ground.
"Jordan, what are you doing?"
Hailey asked.
Jordan said, “I'll sleep on the ground tonight. Didn't I ever sleep on the ground whenever we had to share a room in the past?”
In the past three years, Jordan and Hailey have occasionally gone on vacation together. However, Hailey would never take him if he went abroad.
If it was a road trip within the country, Hailey would have taken Jordan in charge of driving.
Hailey would not choose a standard room every time they stayed at the hotel because she felt her bed was too small. In addition, it would be strange for a married couple to check in at a standard single room and even stranger if they booked two rooms.
They will usually book a deluxe room with a large queen bed that Hailey will use to sleep while Jordan sleeps on the floor.
Jordan's skillful way of laying the carpet on the ground left Hailey feeling heartache.
Hailey sat on the carpet and said, “Jordan, don't sleep on the floor tonight. Do you still not believe me?”
During the two-hour drive, Hailey had played Jordan's favorite songs in the car.
Hailey doesn't just know Jordan's favorite songs. He could also name every kind of food he liked.
Jordan touched.
It proves that he did not love Hailey unilaterally in the last three years and that he liked her too.
He just never expressed his feelings for her.
Hailey continues to tell Jordan that she is innocent, and Rosie vows that Hailey and Tyler did not do the deed.
At this point, Jordan begins to wonder if it's true Hailey really didn't sleep with Tyler.
Jordan said, “Even if you and Tyler Collins didn't get a chance to do the deed at the hotel the other day, you should at least kiss each other, right? You must have greeted each other affectionately and exchanged a lot of sweet things, right? ”
Hailey frantically replied, “No! We never kissed! The furthest we have traveled is holding hands! You can see our wedding photos, none of us kissing. The photographer kept urging us to take some photos while we were kissing, but I turned it down!”
“I never called him Hubby either! He kept asking me, but I couldn't do it because I kept thinking about you! You're the only one I can say that for..”.
“My husband, do you know how much I love you? Do you know how painful I was during that period? ”
As Hailey spoke, she started to cry.
Jordan had seen their wedding photos, and indeed there was no photo of them kissing.
Suddenly, Jordan begins to wonder if Hailey really loves him.
'If not, why hasn't he kissed Tyler?'
Jordan pulled out a piece of tissue paper and wiped Hailey's tears with it. "Hailey, it's too late to say this now."
"If you had explained everything to Me clearly and apologized to Me the night I met you, perhaps, I wouldn't have been so insistent on divorce."
“However, you were so pretentious and even made me kneel and beg you on the day of your grandmother's birthday banquet. How can I not be angry with you?”
Hailey pleads while crying, “I know I was wrong. Hubby, please give me another chance, okay? ”
Jordan took a breath. 'Once a fraudster, still a fraud, they say.'
Even if Hailey still loves Jordan, there's no way she can guarantee that she won't be unfaithful to him anymore!
