Chapter 113
“Really?”
Victoria was so overjoyed that she seemed to be losing herposure.
She had always felt that it was unfair for Hailey to trample on her by throwing her weight around with
her identity as the president’s wife.
Victoria was a seasoned employee who had been working for thepany even before Jordan
became the president. She had also contributed a lot to thepany.
What had Hailey ever done?
Who was she to upy such an excellent office room?
Victoria suddenly had some doubts, and she asked, “Mr. Steele, everything… is fine between you and
Hailey, right?”
Of course, Jordan couldn’t tell Victoria about the embarrassing truth of his marriage.
Thus, he smiled and said, “We’re doing very well, she just got pregnant recently, and we are very in
love with each other.. However, I realized that I’ve spoiled her too much and ended up neglecting you
guys here in the office. That’s not something apetent president should do.”
Victoria was no longer doubtful. She said with a smile, “Mr. Steele, you’re setting a good example for all
men by being such a loving husband and doting on your wife so much. We employees wouldn’t dare to
be jealous.”
Gazing at the svelte Victoria, Jordan couldn’t help but be stunned for a few seconds.
After those crazy ten minutes or so that he had spent with Elle just now, Jordan was still in a state of
excitement, and his hormones were raging as he couldn’t help but be enticed by beautiful women.
Besides, Victoria was also a gorgeous woman, so there was no way Jordan didn’t harbor any thoughts
about her.
To be honest, Jordan didn’t treat Victoria very well.
Ever since Victoria learned that he was thepany’s president, she had been taking the initiative to
approach him and get closer to him.
However, Jordan had always been really cold to her as hepletely treated her as a subordinate.
Now, Jordan regretted his decision as he felt that he would have been better off dating Victoria than
Hailey!
At the very least, Victoria wasn’t a two-faced person like Hailey, who seemed to be innocent and lovely
on the surface, but was actually a promiscuous and unfaithful woman!
Jordan asked, “Victoria, are you free for lunch? My treat.”
Overjoyed to hear his offer, Victoria agreed, “Sure, I’d like to eat at Chicken and Noodles again.”
...
At noon, Jordan and Victoria headed to the underground parking lot of the office building, and together,
they hopped into his limited edition Maybach. They then told the chauffeur to send them to downtown
Ondo.
In the back seat, Jordan poured Victoria a ss of champagne and handed it to her.
“Let’s go get something from downtown before heading to lunch, okay?”
Victoria obviously wouldn’t dare to oppose as a subordinate, and she had always gone along with
Jordan’s decisions.
Victoria took the champagne and said, “Of course it’s okay. But Mr. Steele…”
“Call me by my name.”
Jordan poured a ss of champagne for himself too.
Victoria asked with a smile, “Jordan, is there a happy asion that calls for a celebration with
champagne today?” Victoria asked with a smile
The champagne in the car was prepared by her for Jordan.
The main reason that Jordan had popped champagne was to celebrate the fact that he had finally seen
Hailey’s true colors and obtained the closure he needed to finally let go of this rtionship.
However, Jordan said, “To celebrate the fact that Ace Corporation has ovee that recent ordeal.”
Victoria clinked sses with Jordan and said, “When the stock market opens on Monday, our stock
price will definitely soar high again!”
Jordan didn’t respond to that. Little did Victoria know that the stock price of Ace Corporation would
definitely plummet again when the stock market opened on Monday!
At that time, Jordan will be kicked out of the Steele family and stripped of his position as the president
of the Acme Corporation!
Jordan and Victoria’s rtionship as colleagues would end after the weekend!
Hence, Jordan wanted to treat Victoria to a meal and give her a gift as a token of appreciation for her
help at work.
Upon arriving in downtown Ondo, Jordan headed straight to the Chanel store because Victoria liked
Chanel purses.
When he entered the store, the sales assistant recognized at a nce that Jordan was the president of
the famous Ace Corporation.
Besides, he was apanied by the rich and beautiful Victoria. Thus, the sales assistant was
particrly enthusiastic about greeting them.
Jordan set his sights on a red bag, which he picked up and showed to Victoria. “Victoria, do you like
this bag?”
Victoria nodded and said, “I do, but Hailey probably prefers lighter colors.”
Jordan took the bag and handed it to the sales assistant. “Please wrap this up.”
Victoria was stunned.
The bag cost $10,000. After paying for it with his credit card, Jordan handed it to Victoria. “This is for
you.”
Victoria was so shocked that she covered her mouth. “Jordan…”
Jordan actually gave her a $10,000 Chanel bag!
Jordan patted Victoria’s shoulder and said, “Take it, you’ve been so busy with work when ourpany
got attacked recently and you barely got any sleep. It’s been hard on you. This is your reward.”
Jordan had already paid for it, and the bag’s design would suit a mature woman better, so it wasn’t very
suitable for Hailey.
Hence, Victoria didn’t decline any further and took the bag. “Thank you, Mr. Steele!”
“Let’s go for lunch!”
Jordan and Victoria had an enjoyable lunch together. Theyughed and chatted merrily until thete
afternoon when they returned to the office at 4 pm.
During those few hours, Victoria had the illusion that she was Jordan’s girlfriend because he had never
been so nice to her before.
Jordan figured it out too.
In the past, he had pampered Hailey to bits, bought her everything she wanted, and gave in to her all
the time.
But what happened?
All he got in return was betrayal!
In that case, he might as well show that love and concern to someone who deserved it better!
While Victoria and Jordan were having lunch, Hailey had been chatting with Rachel.
Hailey asked, “Have you contacted Cayden yet? He seems to have left Ondo.”
Rachel smiled and said, “Yeah, he went back to New York. I think he fled in haste because he couldn’t
beat your husband. Congrats Hailey. it turns out that the Steeles are more impressive after all.”
Hailey said gleefully, “Really? I think so too! The Huxleys are such a powerful family. They can easily
wipe out any otherpany by doing what they had done to Ace Corporation.”
“But Jordan managed to keep thepany standing. The Steeles hid their assets so well. Thank God I
didn’t do anything wrong to let Jordan down!”
In the past few days, Hailey had been spending most of her time with Cayden from morning till night,
during which they got to be alone with each other for a few hours.
Besides, Cayden was passionate in his pursuit for Hailey, and she almost couldn’t help but cheat on
Jordan.
Rachel said, “I really can’t wait for Monday to arrive so that I can see how Jordan has crushed Cayden
Huxley!”
Rachel had been distraught with Cayden because he had been threatening her previously.
Seeing that the Steeles had gained the upper hand during the battle against the Huxleys, Rachel was
overjoyed too.
Just like that, time passed quickly, and soon, it was Monday.
The stock market was going to open on Monday, and Jordan would go against Cayden again!
Many people in the industry analyzed that the stock price of Ace Corporation this morning will be the
deciding factor of victory!
In Jade Vi, New York.

Cayden was camping in front of hisputer and smoking a cigarette anxiously while Tyler was right
beside him, simrly looking extremely worried.
“Cayden, you can’t close your position! Keep fighting with Jordan! Don’t you want to sleep with Hailey
Camden anymore? Go listen to that recording again!”
Tyler snapped angrily.
