the Journey of the Resurrection of the Abandoned Son-in-law
chapter 5
Jordan stares at Hailey's beautiful side profile, but she feels Hailey is terrible!
“Hah, you cheated first, but you accused me of cheating instead. Now, you even want to slap me? You're a good wife. I've married a rare gem!”
Jordan couldn't be more annoyed!
To everyone's surprise, Drew snatched the giant Dragon Ruler and ran towards Jordan.
“Dog, how dare you hit me? I'll smash your face!”
Drew then tried to swing the Dragon Ruler into Jordan's face!
Jordan stood glued to the ground without dodging. He grabbed Drew's arm with his left hand and then twisted it, causing him to slap himself with the giant Dragon Sovereign instead.
Hit it!
Drew's face was hit hard by the giant Dragon Ruler in his hand.
It made his face, which was already terrible, look even worse.
Everyone is dumbfounded!
How dare a surviving son-in-law beat up the heir to the Camdens?!
Old Camden mistress stood up and shouted, “! How dare you act like a brat and cause such a commotion here!?! Do you know how many government officials are here!?! They can catch you now and put you behind bars!”
Jordan believed that Old Madam Camden's words were true. Often, the rich get acquainted with high-ranking government officials, such as Camdens. They have ties to prominent figures of power and status.
However, Jordan looked at the guests and said, “I think the officials should have seen clearly that Drew was the one who tried to hit me with a gun first, and I was just defending myself.”
All guests wear regular clothes, not work uniforms. However, one of them, who was tall and in glasses suddenly spoke up.
“However, you just said you will receive a punishment according to family law. However, you go back on your word when it was time to impose the punishment. Do you think that's something a man should do? ”
After that person finished speaking, the crowd chimed in. It was proven that he had a high status.
After hearing the words of the crowd, Old Camden Mistress smiled as well.
Jordan said, “I'm willing to accept punishment under Camden Family law but only if I've done something wrong.”
Old Madame Camden shouted, “You cheated on Hailey behind and even hit my grandson. Is that not enough!?”
Jordan curled her lips in disdain and said, “For the past three years, I loved Hailey wholeheartedly, and I never changed my heart!”
“Your cheating granddaughter! She checked into a room with Tyler at the Splendor Hotel yesterday. You can go check! ”
As soon as he said that, the hall became lively as the guests exchanged pleasantries.
“Tyler? Do you mean Tyler Collins? Collins family descendant?”
“I've long heard that the Camdens intend to let Collins's descendants marry Hailey. It looks like it's true.”
“The Camdens and Collins do fit in, but Hailey could remarry after divorce. It doesn't seem right for him to have an affair, does it?”
“It seems that the legendary most beautiful woman in Orlando is not as pure as she imagined.”
“…”
After hearing the crowd whisper, Hailey blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.
“Grandma, everyone, don't believe the bullshit. I met Tyler yesterday to talk business. As you know, Landmark Realty has been trying to attract some investors lately, so I met Tyler in this case.”
Jordan laughed and made a comment, “Should you talk about business in a hotel room, wearing a bathrobe? Do you consider everyone here as a fool!?!”
At this moment, someone familiar to him walked into the hall.
Talk about the devil. That's Hailey's boyfriend, Tyler!
“Hey, everyone here.”
Tyler has an attractive hairstyle and wears expensive clothes with some gifts on his hands. When he saw the commotion in the lobby, he was a little surprised.
Hailey pulls Tyler as soon as she sees him.
“Tyler, the daughter-in-law of our family, insists that I have an affair with you. Quickly, let everyone know that I went to see you yesterday on business.”
Tyler froze, finally realizing why everyone was staring at him with a strange look.
Tyler glared at Jordan and thought to himself, ‘How dare this useless person who ransacked his wife expose my affair with Hailey in front of so many people!’
It was common for upper class members to engage in perverted acts. However, the most critical difference between them and hooligans is that, despite their mistakes, they build a positive image for themselves.
Tyler said, “Everything, don't listen to what this useless Jordan just said. Hailey and I are innocent. He came to see me yesterday, just to deliver the documents to me.”
“Jordan, you said Hailey cheated on you, but do you have any proof, like a video or a photo?”
Tyler asked Jordan.
Tyler knows that Jordan didn't take out his phone to take any photos or videos at the hotel yesterday.
The only video that could prove Hailey was staying in a hotel room was also removed by Tyler, who managed to do so using his connections.
Tyler just has to deny it out loud now.
Seeing that Jordan was unable to provide any evidence, Tyler laughed and said,
“Everything, the reason Jordan slandered me is because of another problem.”
“Maybe you all don't know yet, but this living daughter-in-law also works as a part-time delivery boy. I ordered takeout yesterday, and happened to be escorted by him. ”
“However, he had a terrible attitude just because he had Camdens as his backer, and he even threw the food I ordered to the ground.”
“Therefore, I gave him a rating of one star.”
Ryan already knows Jordan's employee number. He just needs to enter the employee number into the app to check the takeout order Jordan just sent.
After checking, Ryan nodded and said, “Tyler is right. He received a one-star rating yesterday! The reason for the poor ratings was the bad attitude and throwing takeout to the ground, just like Tyler said!”
Public opinion also shifted at this point, and the crowd began to trust Ryan and Hailey.
Jordan looked at Hailey and said, “Are you not going to explain why I dropped the food to the ground?”
Hailey folded her hands, accentuating her figure while pretending to be innocent. “You are not attentive at work, and you have poor tolerance!”
“Hahaha, good word!”
Jordan wants to applaud Hailey.
‘How could he have the heart to say that!?!’
‘Her husband dropped the items in his hand when he saw his wife in a room with another man, however, he blamed her for having a bad tolerance!’
‘Do I have to pretend not to see it and hand the food over to your lover before kneeling begging you to give me a five-star rating!?!’
“Punk, you're the one who made a mistake at work. However, you slandered Tyler and Hailey.”
“Shut up if you can't show proof!”
“It doesn't matter if he betrays you. You have no right to make a fuss because you are just a living daughter-in-law! ”
“…”
Hailey is the famous heir of a wealthy family in Orlando, while Jordan is the son-in-law everyone hates.
No one spoke for Jordan as they all stood by Hailey's side.
“Haha, this is really a world where only the rich have a voice.”
Jordan didn't explain much, as he felt it was pointless. He just stared at Old Madam Camden.
“You said I was having an affair. Do you have any proof?”
The old Camden mistress looked at Hailey, who shook her head.
Old Madam Camden said, “Since none of you have any evidence to the contrary of each other, we will cancel this matter.”
“However, the fact that you beat Drew cannot be forgotten just like that.”
Jordan looked at Drew and said, “He cut me with a knife at the entrance of Green Park Estate. There are surveillance cameras everywhere on the estate, and the estate security officer can testify that I am defending myself.”
“If you have to pursue this matter, we will call the police. If I get arrested, I promise Drew won't be able to escape either!”
Old Madam Camden, Herman, and the others were all confused.
They know the law. Jordan fights with his bare hands while Drew carries a knife. Drew will face a tougher sentence.
Old Madam Camden pointed her finger at Jordan and said in a scornful tone, “Good, you have cheated us, and now you are very capable, huh? You just hit my granddaughter. Do you want to hit me now!?!”
Jordan said respectfully, “Grand..Old Camden Mistress, I've always respected you for the past three years, and I've also served you wholeheartedly.”
“I promise, as long as Drew doesn't provoke me in the future, I won't do anything to him.”
“I only have one request. I hope you'll agree to Hailey divorcing me!
Jordan has been taking care of Old Lady Camden for the past three years, more than Drew has ever done in his entire life.
After all, Jordan was the granddaughter of her son-in-law who lived at home. Regardless of how much effort he put in, he would never be able to compare to Drew.
Old Madam Camden looked at the crowd and said,
“Everyone, as you all know, three years ago, the Camdens family accepted a son-in-law because of a marriage agreement set by my late husband. Many of you here are close friends and business partners of my late husband for decades!”
“In the past three years, Hailey is unhappy, but for the sake of fulfilling the wishes of my late husband, Hailey's parents have mentioned divorce to me several times, but I have rejected all their requests!”
“Everyone in town loves my granddaughter Hailey, and most of you refer to her as the most beautiful woman in Orlando, so I don't need to tell you who is the more unfit person.”
“Today, Jordan beat up my granddaughter and slandered my granddaughter and Tyler. So, I decided not to comply with the wishes of my late husband!”
“I declare that Jordan will no longer be Camdens living daughter-in-law, and she will soon be expelled from the Camden Family!”
The voice of the old Mistress Camden was loud and dignified.
Hearing Old Madam Camden's words, everyone raised their wine glasses.
“Congratulations, Old Lady Camden, congratulations, Hailey!”
“Congratulations, we have gotten rid of useless things. Now we can finally find a better man who matches Hailey!”
Sylvie also raised her glass happily and clinked the glass with the guests, unable to contain the excitement seen on her face.
“Thank you all. Now I reveal a piece of information to you. Hailey and Jordan have been sleeping in separate rooms for the past three years, and she hasn't even touched Hailey's hand before. Hailey.... still a virgin!”
After hearing Sylvie's words, many of the bachelors present glanced at Hailey with interest.
Hailey also started reprimanding Sylvie flirtatiously.
“Bu, why are you talking about this in front of so many people? That makes me ashamed.”
Hailey's words made the guests happy.
The Camdens finally agree to let Hailey and Jordan divorce. However, at this moment, they were all rejoicing and celebrating.
That left Jordan disappointed.
“Are you guys very happy to get rid of me? Hailey, if you know my true identity, I wonder if you can still laugh!”
