Chapter 394


    Butler Frank was overjoyed. “When? Are you getting married to Miss Victoria?”


    Jordan sighed and said, “The day after tomorrow. I’m getting married to Miss Lauren Howard, not


    Victoria.”


    Butler Frank asked with bewilderment, “Mr. Jordan, how could this possibly happen?”


    “Victoria has gone missing and I suspect it’s the Howards who did it. I must marry Lauren to find out


    where Victoria is.”


    Butler Frank sighed. “Mr. Jordan, have you ever thought about how you’d be marrying the wrong


    person in case the Howards aren’t the culprits? You can’t just marry or divorce a Howard as you


    please.”


    “I’ve thought about it but I have a hunch that even if the Howards aren’t the culprits, I still have to marry


    Lauren to find Victoria. It seems like everything is forcing me to go down this path.”


    Frank eximed in surprise, “Mr. Steele Sr. has said a long time ago that your intuition and prediction


    are very urate, Mr. Jordan. Mr. Steele Senior is resting at the moment. I’ll tell him the news when he


    wakes upter. But I’m afraid that Mr. Steele Senior won’t be able to attend your wedding in person, Mr.


    Jordan.”


    Jordan said, “Well, I hadn’t nned to invite Grandpa. I just want to tell him that I’m doing well and that


    he doesn’t have to worry about me.”


    After chatting with Butler Frank for a few minutes, Jordan hung up the phone. He then called Jesse but


    thetter didn’t answer.


    Ten minutester, Jesse returned the call with an unknown number.


    “Jordan!”


    “Jesse.”


    “I was busy just now. What’s the matter? Is there any news from Jamie?”


    “No, Jesse, I’m calling you to tell you that I’m getting married.”


    Jesse was overjoyed. “You’re getting married? When? Looking forward to attending yours and


    Victoria’s wedding.”


    When he was at the French bar, Jesse had told Jordan that he was waiting to attend his and Victoria’s


    wedding.


    After a moment of silence, Jordan said, “1st April. But the person I’m marrying is Martin Howard’s


    granddaughter, Lauren, not Victoria.”


    “What? You’re getting married to one of the Howards?”


    Jesse was immediately agitated and astounded. “How can you marry a Howard? Don’t you love


    Victoria the most? I sent you the photo of Victoria’s father at the risk of being scolded by Grandpa,


    precisely because I wanted to help you and Victoria be together. Yet, you’re marrying another woman.


    Jordan, don’t be a womanizer like Jamie. You have to be responsible and loyal to your woman!”


    Jesse was clearly dead set against the idea of Jordan marrying Lauren.


    A sigh came out from Jordan. “Jesse, you don’t understand what’s going on. Of course I love Victoria


    and I really want to marry her. But, Victoria has suddenly gone missing and there’s no news about her


    at all. I suspect it was the Howards who abducted her and I have no choice but to marry Lauren.”


    “Gone missing?” Jesse was bewildered.


    Instead, Jordan asked, “Will you be attending my wedding on the 1st of April? The Howards want to


    meet my family.”


    “Yes, your sister-inw and I will be attending your wedding together. By the way, have Mom and Dad


    been informed about this? Are they going to turn up?” said Jesse.


    “No, Dad refused to tell me anything about Victoria’s father and I don’t want to speak to him. I didn’t call


    Mom either.”


    “My silly brother, don’t be emotional. Dad refused to tell you about it because the family rules prohibit


    him from doing so. I’ll call Momter and ask her about it. Get some rest, I’ll see you on the 1st of


    April.”


    “Okay, Jesse, I’ll be waiting for you two.”


    ...


    The decorative wedding banners on the gates of the houses in DC were all removed and reced by


    wedding banners with the Howards’ name printed on them.


    That wasn’t all. The matter regarding the trouble faced by the Hanks, and Lauren getting married to a


    man who would be her live-in husband, also spread like wildfire throughout the upper-ss circle


    of DC.


    “Hey, have you heard? The Howards’ heiress has called off her wedding but she’s getting married on


    the same day with another man!”


    “I heard that the groom is a penniless man from another city who doesn’t even have a house in DC and


    is going to marry Lauren Howard as a live-in husband!”


    “Ahhh, I heard that Miss Howard is as beautiful as a goddess. Howe I’m not as lucky as that man


    to be able to be her live-in husband!?”


    ...


    In New City residential estate in Ondo.


    “The wheels on the bus go round and round…”


    Hailey yed some children’s songs and sang along while coaxing her twins smilingly.


    Although Hailey was not a good wife, she was definitely a good mother. But then again, which mother


    would dislike her own children?


    Many celebrities cheated on their spouses, who liked to portray themselves as good mothers as if


    being good to their children would negate their immoral behavior.


    At this moment, Hailey’s mother, Sylvie, entered looking incredibly flustered.


    “My dear daughter, I heard a shocking piece of news when I was at a former ssmate’s ce just


    now. Guess who it was about?


    Now that she had about 300 million dors, Hailey was getting ready to set up a newpany and had


    been living rather welltely. She would use the most expensive skincare products and hit the gym


    every single day.


    With superb looks and a hot figure, she was an absolute beauty who would make all men unable to


    resist the urge to gawk at her.


    “Who is it about? Why are you so excited?” Hailey asked nonchntly.


    Sylvie said, “It’s about Jordan! He’s getting married to Lauren Howard!”


    What?” Hailey was shocked, “Lauren? As in Brad’s sister?”


    She suddenly remembered that she had met Lauren thest time she went to Houston for Victoria and


    Russell’s wedding. Lauren was so beautiful that she made Hailey feel like she had met her match for


    the first time,


    Hailey flew into a rage immediately. “Fine, Jordan Steele, you made me stay at home to look after the


    kids and yet, you’re getting married to Lauren Howard after toying with Victoria rke!”


    “How infuriating. Since he’s no longer dating Victoria rke, why didn’t he choose me!?”

    Sylvie chimed in, “Yeah, you and Jordan have a son together and it’d be great if you reconciled. But


    haven’t Jordan’s assets been frozen? Don’t you mind the fact that he’s poor?”


    Hailey humphed coldly. “I would never believe that Jordan is poor again. I’ve already suffered losses


    twice because of this and got duped by him twice in a row! Now I finally know that Jordan Steele would


    never be penniless in this lifetime!


    “Hmph, Jordan is so heartless. Back when I got married to Tyler and Cayden, he ruined it for me..


    When Victoria got married, he ruined her wedding too and disrupted our peace. This time, I must crash


    Jordan’s wedding and wreak havoc too! I’m going to ruin his wedding!”
