the Journey of the Resurrection of the Abandoned Son-in-law
chapter 25
Chou Notes:
Elle is desperate to know what the mysterious Mr. Steele looks like.
However, Jordan had instructed Ashley not to tell anyone else about him. He would not break his orders just for the money.
Ashley hastily returned the money to Elle and denied, “Miss Camden, I have no photo of Mr. Steele. However, I can tell you that he is very handsome and around your age.
Hearing the words “very handsome”, Elle's heart started pounding happily.
Though her request to discuss a contract with Jordan is once again denied, the beautiful but foolish and crazy Elle boy leaves happily.
…
Chalong, Thailand.
Salvatore arrives by plane and meets his boss, Pablo Dalton.
Due to Pablo's involvement in several underground businesses in Bangkok and the recruitment of many fighters, he has traveled frequently to and from Southeast Asia over the past few years.
Pablo drank alcohol under the dim light of the small gymnasium where the underground boxing match took place, while cheering his fight in the ring.
“Pak. Dalton,” Salvatore said respectfully as he arrived beside Pablo's chair.
Pablo ignored Salvatore until the boxing match ended.
He then looked at Salvatore happily and asked, “Salvatore, why did you come here all the way from Orlando? Did something happen?”
Salvatore nodded. Seeing that Pablo had sipped the liquor, he hurriedly picked up the bottle to fill Pablo's cup to the brim.
“You are very wise, Mr. Dalton. I did have some problems in Orlando, and I need your help. ”
Pablo took out a cigar and sniffed it before saying, “Last there's been a strict ban on the crime industry, and I think most of your stores have been confiscated. I'm sure you have less than a hundred subordinates left, right? ”
Pablo was the one taking care of Salvatore, so he naturally knew that Salvatore used to have hundreds of subordinates.
Salvatore kept nodding. “You're right, Mr. Dalton, I only have ten subordinates left, but today, a young bastard named Jordan Steele crippled them.”
Pablo smiled and was just about to cut his cigar. Still, after hearing Salvatore's words, he became enraged and smashed the cigar cutter into Salvatore's head!
“Basic idiot! I thought you had at least seventy or eighty subordinates left, but it turns out you only have ten! You even let someone cripple them!?! I handed over hundreds of subordinates to you before I left Orlando back then, but you failed to keep a single one alive and well!
Still unsatisfied after smashing the cigar cutter into Salvatore, Pablo gave him another loud slap in his head.
Salvatore did not dare to dodge and let Pablo continue to hit and attack him.
After Pablo boils, Salvatore takes a cigar cutter and cuts a cigar for Pablo.
He said, “Not only was my store seized, but many of my other businesses were also not running smoothly. Moreover, now that food delivery, taxi drivers, and social media content creators are very lucrative jobs, many subordinates have decided to move on to other industries. Good enough to still have ten. ”
Sucking on a cigar, Pablo nodded and said, “I've known for a long time that times have changed and the world is no longer what it was when I was young. In that era, we used to be able to thrive just by winning a few fights and fights.”
“Hooligans these days are all useless who can't fight. It is no wonder that ten of your subordinates have been crippled. ”
“Any random fighter of mine can easily beat ten
your subordinate. Do you know what the reason is?”
Salvatore said humbly, “Master. Dalton, please teach me.”
Pablo said, “That's because they live too comfortably. When you live a comfortable luxurious life, why do you bother to fight hard? Only when you suffer from poverty will you be able to exert your full fighting spirit!”
“We are a group of individuals living in darkness, and there is no room for us to survive in broad daylight. Therefore, two years ago, I left Orlando to shift my focus to these places in Southeast Asia where poverty is rampant.”
“I already have more than two thousand subordinates here, and each of them can defeat ten people at once!”
Full of admiration for Pablo, Salvatore said, “If only I were half as smart as you, I wouldn't have experienced the sad state I am today. Mr Dalton, please allow me to bring a hundred of your subordinates back with me and avenge our brothers!”
Pablo glanced at Salvatore coldly and said, “Just like you, I am an orphan, but I am less educated than you. I managed to have the mindset and achievements I did today, all thanks to Mr. Reyes, who has educated me.”
Salvatore always heard about Mr. Reyes from Pablo, but he never had the chance to meet him.
“Omong-by the way about Mr. Reyes, I have not visited him for a long time.”
It was clear that Pablo had great respect for Mr. Reyes as he quickly put down his cigar and took his phone to call him.
“Pak. Reyes, I'm not interrupting your break, am I?” Pablo asked with a respectful expression.
Salvatore watched from the side, eager to hear how his boss's voice sounded.
Pablo said, “Well, I plan to return to Orlando in the next few days to deal with some things. I haven't visited you in a long time, so I prepared some gifts, and I intend to visit you soon. Are you in town?”
“What? You in orlando? Thats cool. I'll book a flight back to Orlando now to see you soon, Mr Reyes!”
After hanging up, Pablo exclaimed cheerfully with a wide grin on his face, “I didn't expect Mr. Reyes to be in Orlando right now!”
Salvatore was also very excited. “Betulkah? I've heard you mention Mr. Reyes several times over the past few years, but I haven't had a chance to meet him yet. You should introduce me to him this time. ”
Hit it!
Pablo slapped Salvatore and reprimanded, “Master. Reyes is a noble status. He is not someone that an incompetent and useless person like you can meet! Even I had to make an appointment in advance to meet with Mr. Reyes! Book a flight immediately. I'll visit Mr. Reyes and at the same time dealing with that punk Jordan Steele you mentioned.”
Salvatore exclaims, “Yes, Mr Dalton!”
…
In the afternoon, Elle went home and told her parents about what happened this afternoon.
Herman laughed and said, “I'm surprised Mr. Steele said that he wouldn't be able to talk about work seriously if he kept staring at you. Elle, it looks like Mr. Steele is in love with you.”
Elle was lying on the sofa with a face mask on her face. He said arrogantly, “That goes without saying.”
After some thought, Herman said, “Because Mr. Steele wants others to discuss a contract with him, Drew will replace you.”
Drew's sending an SMS to Salvatore right now. He had just received a message from Salvatore saying that Jordan would be beaten to the brink tomorrow.
Drew smiled and said, “Sure, coincidence
I plan to go look for that pointless thing tomorrow.”
The next morning, Pablo and his 100 subordinates, whom he had brought from Bangkok, arrived at the villa where Lord Reyes was staying.
Fearing he would interrupt Mr. Reyes' rest, Pablo stood respectfully at the door from 5am to half-time.
Only then did Pablo, who was always high in the air, enter slowly.
As soon as he saw Mr. Reyes, Pablo put down his gift and knelt on the ground to greet him. “Pak. Rey!”
Mr. Reyes sat down and glanced at him. “That's you, Pablo. You yourself are the boss. You don't have to kneel. Build.”
Pablo continued to kneel and said excitedly, “I made it this far today, all thanks to your efforts in taking care of me, Mr. Reyes. I will never forget your kindness! By the way, Mr Reyes, haven't you been to England for the past two years? Why did you suddenly return to Orlando?”
Mr. Reyes said, “Master. Senior Steele sent me here to help Mr. Jordan.”
Pablo was surprised. “Pak. Reyes, can you tell me what Mr Jordan is like? In case I failed to recognize him and ended up offending him, I would eat hot soup. ”
Mr. Reyes sighed helplessly and said, “Orlando is very clean. It'll get dirty after you come here. ”
After that, he instructed his subordinates to send Pablo a photo.
The person in the photo is none other than Jordan!
Mr. Reyes is actually the Steeles' butler, Frank.
Although he was only a butler, he had learned about investing from Jordan's grandfather over the years and thus amassed a fortune worth billions.
In addition, over the years, Butler Frank has helped care for many people, and Pablo is one of them.
When Pablo saw the photo of Jordan, he immediately praised it. “Pak. Jordan is so handsome! At first glance I can tell that he is a descendant of a rich family! I sincerely hope that I can have the honor to meet him someday!”
Mr. Reyes said coldly, “Master. Jordan is on a training mission assigned to his family, don't bother him. I'll call you when I need you.”
“Ya!” Pablo replied respectfully.
…
The Ace Corporation office building.
Drew arrived at Jordan's office early in the morning and was bright, and he waited in the meeting room for two hours.
Just like when his father, Herman, visited for the first time, Drew did not get to meet Jordan, not even a glass of water was served.
“What exactly is this Mr Steele trying to do!?! She obviously liked my little sister, Elle, but she was very aloof towards me. These descendants of the top families are truly eccentric! ”
After looking again at his chat history with Salvatore, it suddenly reminded Drew
the fact that Jordan worked as a bodyguard at Ace Corporation, or so he thought. He called Jordan.
At the president's office, Jordan is shocked to see Drew calling him on his phone.
Of course, he knew Drew was waiting in his company's meeting room and was standing next to him.
Jordan thought, ‘Does he finally believe that I am the president of this company?’
“Halo,” Jordan answered the phone.
To his surprise, Drew said in a condescending tone, “Jordan, you are in the office building now, right? Come to the meeting room.”
Hearing Drew's condescending tone, Jordan knows that he is still unaware that he is the president of the company. Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to talk to her like that.
Jordan won't see him as president of the company. Still, he is willing to go to the meeting room to meet Drew as Camdens' former son-in-law, only to see what he will say.
After arriving at the meeting room, Jordan looked at Drew and asked, “What do you want to meet me for?”
Drew asked, “Where is your boss, Mr Steele?”
Jordan looked at Drew and said, “Master. Steele is talking to a retard now.”
Drew laughed out loud and said, “I also consider that person a fool! He actually spent so much time Mr. Steele.”
Jordan thought to himself, “Drew Camden, you idiot, I'm referring to you!’
“Is there anything else?” jordan asked with a smile.
Seeing how arrogant Jordan is, Drew snapped unhappily, “Jordan, you're just a bodyguard, but why are you all dressed like the president of the company? What are you pretending for? ”
“Also, you beat me up in front of so many bigwigs in Orlando. I'll definitely settle the score with you!
Jordan said, “I know. Didn't you have Salvatore set me up? Unfortunately, your dear Salvatore cannot avenge you.”
Drew hump and said,
“Don't be too arrogant. Salvatore has brought over 100 expert fighters from Southeast Asia under his boss, Pablo Dalton! Jordan, don't blame me for not reminding you, but be careful on the way home after work and don't get too drunk at the club! Don't let you be beaten into a pulp! Ha ha ha!”
Jordan thought. She has been out of work with Victoria lately, and she doesn't want Victoria to get hurt, even though she herself isn't afraid to face those fighters.
Therefore, Jordan said, “Is that so? I just happen to be itching to throw a few punches. Tell the fighters under Salvatore or Pablo to come straight to the office parking lot. They didn't have to bother crowding me after I got home from work.”
Drew was instantly excited and exclaimed, “Sure! I'll hold fast to your words and ask Salvatore to send his subordinates here now! If you have the guts, get down to the parking lot and wait there with me now! ”
“Sure,” Jordan nodded happily.
‘Elite fighters from Southeast Asia?’
Indeed, most of them were a bit more ruthless than the fighters here because the circumstances in their country were more chaotic afterwards. However, the environment in which they were trained was clearly not as brutal as the battlefield where Jordan was.
When they arrive at the underground parking lot, Drew takes Jordan to a corner and then picks up the bricks to destroy all the surveillance cameras around him.
Afterwards, Drew said arrogantly, “Haha, now the surveillance camera is destroyed! There will be no proof even if you get killed here!”
“Is that so? That means there won't be any evidence of me beating you to death here, right?” Jordan said with a happy smile.
“You ... What are you trying to do?” Drew was so shocked that he took a step back.
Hit it!
Jordan slapped him hard and laughed out loud. “Drew Camden, are you stupid? You called some fighters to come and hit me, but do you think I won't beat you up before they arrive?
“Ah!” Drew screaming.
After Jordan hits Drew for a while, they finally hear Salvatore's voice.
“Detach Mr Camden!” Salvatore walked over with ten mature brown-skinned men.
Drew hurriedly rushed to Salvatore and hid behind him. Pointing at Jordan, he barked, “Jordan, I will paralyze you today and make sure that you can no longer be a bodyguard!”
