Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There had always been all sorts of people of all walks of life in the smoking area of the hospital.
While Jordan was smoking and waiting for Victoria, several middle-aged men took the initiative to strike a conversation with him. Their wives had all just given birth.
However, they were all br.i.m.m.i.n.g with the joy of being a father for the first time and 100% certain that they were the biological fathers of their children without having done a paternity test.
!!Indeed, such a dramatic event wouldn’t happen to ordinary people.
When one marries a beautiful woman like Hailey, who attracts countless suitors, one is destined to experience the corresponding misery.
Soon, Victoria arrived at the hospital. She headed to the smoking area to meet up with Jordan and asked him to wait for her there while she went to see Hailey alone.
Like Jordan, Victoria also bought a fruit basket and some health supplements to Hailey’s VIP ward.
There were two guards outside the ward, and although they were no longer the same ones as before, they were just as challenging to deal with.
“Name and workplace,” one of the guards said indifferently while staring at Victoria’s superb figure.
Victoria responded confidently with great dignity, “Victoria Clarke, president of Perry Express!”
The two guards were astonished!
“President… president of Perry Express? Miss… Miss Clarke?”
The president of Perry Express was on the same level as their boss, Arthur Huxley, and the reputation and stock prices of Perry Express had now far surpa.s.sed Breezy Express!
The guards frantically bent forward respectfully and answered, “Please come in, Miss Clarke…”
Victoria carried her things with her and walked in.
“Hey, Victoria is here!”
Upon sight of Victoria, Cayden hurriedly went over to greet her. “Victoria, it’s so thoughtful of you to take the time out of your schedule to come to visit my wife. You’ve even brought gifts with you. The fruit looks delicious. Bring them to me.’
Victoria handed the fruit basket and health supplements to Cayden before walking towards Hailey.
“Victoria.” Hailey also greeted Victoria cordially and obediently.
“Hailey,” Victoria called out affectionately.
Hailey’s pretentiousness and ability to converse hypocritically were several notches below Victoria’s.
“Hailey, how’s your body recovering?” Victoria asked, showing Hailey some concern.
Hailey said with a smile, “Much better. Thank you for your concern.”
Victoria took a look at the pair of twins and remarked gleefully, “The babies are gorgeous. They’re going to grow up to be really good-looking.”
Hailey was also extremely confident in her children’s looks.
After chatting for a while, Victoria said, “Actually, I came here to visit you and the children and also to ask you to do me a favor.”
“What is it?” Hailey asked.
Victoria said, “Can you get the children and Jordan to do a paternity test?”
Only then did Hailey learn that Victoria was here for Jordan.
Hailey’s expression changed. “No!”
Victoria didn’t expect Hailey to be so determined, and she said, “Hailey, are you adamant about it because you think the kids are still too young? We can wait a few more days or even a week or two.”
“Give us a date so that Jordan can have something to look forward to.”
However, Hailey refuted with determination, “I won’t let the children do a paternity test with Jordan, ever!”
“Why?” Victoria asked
Hailey said straightforwardly, “Because there is no point in doing that! Even if the children are proven to be his, so what? Can they inherit the Steeles’ a.s.sets?”
“At the end of the day, Cayden and I will still have to raise them.”
Victoria thought about it and said, “How about this? If it turns out that are fathered by Jordan, I’m willing to pay you 15 million in alimony on his behalf.”
15 million dollars!
Hailey and Cayden both froze in shock. ‘Victoria’s girlfriend is too generous, huh?’
The children had nothing to do with Victoria at all. Other women would try to keep their boyfriends from giving money to their ex-wives’ children.
Yet, Victoria was helping Jordan pay his ex-wife and children alimony!
Hailey immediately felt ashamed and guilty. She exclaimed, “A woman is actually willing to spend 15 million dollars on Jordan!”
As Jordan’s ex-wife, she was displeased and immediately refuted when she saw Victoria undermining her with money.
“No way! I have 15 million dollars too! I don’t need your money!”
The Camdens were not what they used to be. If they first met in the past, 15 million dollars would still be considered an enormous sum to Hailey.
After all, Hailey had slept with Tyler just to get him to invest a few million dollars.
However, 15 million dollars no longer meant much to Hailey now.
“Okay, then, if you change your mind later, call me again. The promise of 15 million dollars will stand at any time. I won’t disturb you from resting now.”
Seeing how resolute Hailey was, Victoria didn’t waste her breath any longer.
Victoria headed back to the smoking area downstairs and shook her head at Jordan when she saw him.
“She has been dead against getting a paternity test done but don’t worry, I’ll find time to come back and talk to her again.”
Victoria comforted Jordan.
Jordan shook his head and said, “It’s alright, Victoria, just go ahead and focus on your work. Stay out of this matter. I have my own solution.”
Jordan felt his heartache for Victoria because this matter had nothing to do with her. He couldn’t bear to see her getting vexed about the issues between him and his ex-wife.
Jordan sent Victoria to work and then called Frank again.
“Do you have any orders for me, Mr. Jordan?”
Frank seemed to sense that Jordan was going to hand him a major task!
Jordan said, “I want to acquire Speedy Express, Omni Express, 365 Express, Daily Express, and the other top courier companies in the country other than Perry Express and Breezy Express!”
“I also want to acquire the three major takeout companies like Uber and the others!”
Frank was so shocked that he exclaimed on the other end of the line!
The acquisition of so many companies would probably require several dozens of billions of dollars!
Frank asked, “Mr. Jordan, are you… going to make Victoria Clarke the president of these companies again?”
Jordan said, “No, I’m going to be the president!”
“I’m going to set up a group of companies that belong to me, just like I did in Orlando. I want to dominate New York City and become the richest man in the country!”
Frank swallowed his saliva agitatedly. “Yes!”
After hanging up the phone, Jordan closed his eyes and lifted his head to look up at the sky!
He had tried it before!
He had tried treating everyone with sincerity as a penniless man!
However, Cayden and Russell looked down on him and despised him!
The Camdens abandoned him!
Hailey even felt that Jordan was not worthy of a paternity test!
It was solely because she thought that Jordan was no longer one of the Steeles!
The only one he really wanted to keep by his side was Victoria!
‘If that’s the case, then I won’t hide anymore. I won’t care about your feelings anymore!’
‘I’m a scion who’s worth dozens of billions of dollars!”
‘I’m the richest man in the country!’
‘That powerful Mr. Steele who dominated Orlando is back!’
“Hailey Camden, I want you to beg me on your knees to get a paternity test done the next time you see me!!”
