the Journey of the Resurrection of the Abandoned Son-in-law
chapter 12
Chou Notes:
“Picturing..”.
No matter how Benedict called out to him, Drew would ignore him.
Drew didn't dare provoke Jordan anymore. He had already been beaten twice today, and if he was beaten for the third time, he would be handicapped.
Benedict was Jordan's former father-in-law, but now they are no longer related to each other. Therefore, he was afraid that Jordan would turn his back on them and hit him as well.
Benedict was different from Herman. He doesn't know any mafia members.
So he picked up his phone and called his daughter Hailey. “Hailey, are you still at West Lake Hotel?”
Hailey replied, “Yes, Dad. I.”
Benedict said, “I'm at your grandmother's house, and we've found that a Richard Mille watch worth over 800,000 dollars has been lost. Jordan must have taken it.”
Hailey barked, “that bastard! No wonder he had the money to stay in the president's room in a five-star hotel!”
Benedict said, “Hailey, your grandmother is very angry, and she wants you to bring Jordan back. I'm not leaving. I'll hand it to you.”
…
West Lake Hotels.
Hailey hung up the phone and exclaimed furiously, “Good, Jordan, how dare you steal from Grandma? Notice how I deal with you!?!”
Hailey walked towards the front desk and asked, “What room does Jordan Steele stay in?”
Seeing this, Tyler hurriedly approached her and asked, “Hailey, what are you doing?”
“What do I do? I'll bring him back, of course. He has stolen my grandfather's watch, which is worth over 800,000 dollars!” hailey.
Tyler knew that Jordan would definitely not just comply, and the two of them would definitely argue when the time came.
They were in a five-star hotel, and his family was in the hotel business in the first place. What he hated the most were the people who made trouble at the hotel.
After all, Tyler couldn't provoke the owner of the West Lake Hotel.
Tyler grabbed Hailey's arm and said, “Don't go, just call the police.”
Hailey brushed it off and denied, “Why are you so cowardly? If you are too afraid to go, I will go alone!”
After learning Jordan's room number, Hailey took the elevator and headed to the presidential suite where Jordan was.
Dong-Dong-Dong!
Hailey did not bother to ring the doorbell, and she simply banged on the door with her soft fist.
“Jordan, you're a thief! Open the door now!”
At this moment, Jordan had just finished a bath and was drying his hair. When he heard a knock on the door, he turned off the hair dryer and faintly heard Hailey's voice again.
“Why is this woman still bothering me?! She came looking for me again even though we just got divorced!”
Jordan put down the hairdryer and walked over to open the door.
As soon as she did, Hailey was greeted with the sight of Jordan wearing a bathrobe, her thick hair combed back. It was still damp, and his current hairstyle made him look much more handsome than when he had bangs. He also seems to be more domineering.
Jordan's bathrobe was not worn properly, and his upper body muscles were clearly visible.
“Jordan actually has a stomach..”
Hailey Camden has always liked men with stomachs, and despite having been married to Jordan for three years, she never knew that she had such a perfect figure!
“If I had known earlier, I would have kept him shirtless at home during the summer.”
Hailey felt a little sorry. In his opinion, Jordan is poor, but he is handsome, and if he has a stomach too, he will make a good eye candy.
“What's the problem?” jordan asked coldly.
Hailey stopped staring at Jordan's body, and she asked angrily, “Jordan, did you steal Richard Mille's watch from my grandmother's house?”
“Which Richard Mille hand watch?” Jordan's confused.
Hailey snapped, “You're still pretending, huh!?! There's a watch worth over 800 grand, missing from Grandma's house! You must have taken it. Otherwise, how could you have the money to stay in the president's room in a five-star hotel? I've never even stayed in a presidential room before!”
Jordan couldn't help but laugh, amused by Camden's silliness. They will never offer any advantage and only come to it whenever it is time to take the rap.
Jordan said, “Nona Camden, I never took a single item from your family, nor did I steal a watch. Please go.”
Hearing Jordan call her Miss Camden, Hailey's heart was filled with grief!
For the past three years, he called her “Hailey” with great affection. She sometimes even calls him with affectionate terms like “Bay,” “Dear Wife,” or “Dewi.”
However, Jordan now calls her Miss Camden.
Feeling aggrieved, Hailey Camden
Hailey froze in shock as she suddenly felt that she seemed to have heard that phrase somewhere before!
After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that he had said the same thing to Jordan about this time at the Splendor Hotel yesterday!
Yesterday, when Jordan was walking over Hailey and Tyler Collins in the hotel room, Jordan wanted to come in and beat up Tyler Collins, but Hailey said Jordan wasn't worthy of setting foot into a five-star hotel room!
However, Jordan was now not only standing in a five-star hotel room, but he was also entitled to stay in it as a guest!
Although both are five-star hotels, West Lake Hotel room rates are several times higher than Splendor Hotel!
Standing in front of Hailey, Jordan suddenly thought of a popular saying.
‘I'm standing right in front of you now, but I'm not like I used to be!’
“Well, you won't let me in, will you?” Hailey, angered at being rejected, said, “I'll give you a chance to go home, admit your mistake, and accept Grandma's punishment. Then we will consider this issue resolved. ”
“Because you don't appreciate this opportunity, I'll call the police and let them handle it! Don't blame me for not reminding you. Stealing something worth more than 800,000 dollars would guarantee a prison sentence of 15 years and above!”
“If you kneel before me now ..”
Bang out!
Before Hailey could finish, Jordan closed the door.
“Hmph, he made me kneel and apologize to him all the time, just because he knew that I liked him. I've really spoiled him and spoiled him for the last three years. Why do I have to bend so low just because I like it!?”
Jordan stopped thinking about it and continued to dry her hair.
“You..”.
Hailey Camden stomped her feet angrily as she called the police, after which she shouted at the door of the presidential room, “I've called the police, just wait, you'll be behind bars!”
Soon, Camdens also learns that Hailey has called the police.
Old Camden mistress barked unhappily, “What? Hailey called the police? Who told him to call the police? I want to handle our own family affairs, not let anyone else do it!”
Sylvie knew that Old Madame Camden always liked to handle everything herself.
Afraid that she would oppose Hailey, she hurriedly said, “Bu, Hailey must have called the police in Jordan because she did not want to cooperate.”
Old mistress Camden sighed and said, “Forget it, maybe Jordan is destined to spend the rest of his life in prison.”
The Camdens believe the law will punish Jordan.
…
Ten minutes later, two uniformed policemen arrived at the West Lake Hotel.
Tyler and Hailey, who were waiting in the lobby, immediately walked towards the police officers when they saw them.
“Master, I called the police.”
One of the police officers asked, “You must be Miss Hailey Camden, right? You said that Jordan Steele had stolen a watch worth over 800,000 dollars from your family, right?”
Hailey nodded and said, “Yes, Jordan Steele is a stay-at-home daughter-in-law, and we just got divorced. He stole our watch and sold it for the money he spent staying for a week in the president's room at this hotel. He even hired a prostitute!”
“Master, please quickly catch him!”
The police officer went to the front desk and said, “Call Jordan Steele and tell him to get off.”
The front desk clerk called the phone that was in Jordan's room, but Jordan had just fallen asleep after taking a shower and didn't hear the phone ring.
Hailey tried to call Jordan's phone, but there was no answer
aslo.
Hailey said, “She must be too scared to answer because she's guilty of theft!”
“Let's go upstairs to see it,” said a police officer.
The two police officers ride the elevator on their own while Hailey waits downstairs with Tyler because she doesn't want to cause trouble.
Bang out! Bang out!
Bang out! Bang out!
The police knocked on the door several times before Jordan woke up from his sleep and got up to open the door.
“Is this Mr Jordan Steele? Can we come in?” ask the police officer.
Jordan knew that it was Hailey who called the police and said with a smile, “Ya, please come in.”
A bespectacled police officer took the initiative to introduce himself, “I am Chief Lee of the district police station. We received a police report from Miss Hailey Camden. He claims you stole a watch worth over 800,000 dollars from his family yesterday. Is there such a thing?”
Jordan replied honestly, “I didn't take anything from Camdens.”
Chief Lee continued, “I'm sorry for being presumptuous, but I heard that you were previously Camden's son-in-law, and you didn't have much money. For the past six months, you've been working as a food deliveryman. Miss Camden said you didn't get a penny from Camdens after your divorce.”.
At this moment, Chief Lee, who was also a man, felt sorry for Jordan.
‘The Camdens are too stingy. They have at least millions of assets. They could at least give him several tens of thousands of dollars. ”
Chief Lee said, “See, there is a swimming pool, television, and some sofas in this presidential suite. There is also a beautiful view. I heard it costs over 10,000 dollars a night. However, you ordered it for one night. ”
“Because you didn't take the watch, where did you get the money?”
Jordan did not immediately reply but got up and went to the table in the room to take the contract which he then handed over to the police officer.
“Chief Lee, this is Ace Corporation's equity transfer contract. I am now the largest shareholder and CEO of the newly appointed Ace Corporation. It's my business card!”
Jordan hands Ace Corporation CEO's business card to Chief Lee!
