Chapter 88 Hailey''s Grandaunt


    "Mr. Jordan!"


    Greyson and Butler Frank panicked when they saw Hailey ssh water on Jordan''s face.


    As subordinates, they were to me for failing to protect their master


    Butler Frank apologized, "It''s all my fault. I''m too old and powerless. Greyson can''t get up either."


    Jordan took a piece of tissue paper and wiped his face with it. "I''m fine. The water was lukewarm. I


    already expected her to do that."


    The reason Jordan intentionally provoked Hailey was to make it clear she wouldn''t be able to get


    together with him again!


    After leaving The Times restaurant, Hailey called Rachel.


    Rachel had just driven away a short while ago, but she returned to the restaurant again to pick


    Hailey up and send her to Diana''s ce.


    When Hailey returned to Diana''s vi, everyone asked her about how the date turned out.


    Hailey was still hopping mad, and she told them what had just happened.


    Feeling unjust for her daughter, Sylvie said, "Jordan has really gone too far. How can he set Hailey


    up with a cripple?"


    Herman said with a derisive smile, "I think Mr. Steele''s arrangement is quite good. Butler Frank has


    only one grandson, so he will be inheriting billions of dors worth of assets. Hailey, you might


    regret turning Mr. Steele down like this."


    Drew guffawed and chimed in, "Yeah, you''re twice divorced, and you''re still so choosy. I think


    Jordan made a reasonable arrangement."


    Elie also seized this opportunity to mock Hailey. "Hailey, you''d better give up on Jordan. He


    shouldn''t have been married to you in the first ce. I should be his wife!"


    "That''s enough! Stop it!"


    Diana frowned.


    In the past, the distribution of the family''s assets and their roles in the business used to be a point of


    contention between Benedict and Herman.


    Now, their daughters were arguing and vying over Jordan.


    Diana looked at Elie and said, "Elie, you know I have always doted on you. It''s not that I don''t want


    to let you get into a rtionship with Jordan, but as you can see, Jordan has been giving you the


    cold shoulder both times he met you recently. He still sees you as a kid, and you definitely stand a


    smaller chance than Hailey."


    Hailey was d that Diana was speaking up for her.


    "But Grandma, since Jordan has tried to set me up with another man, does that mean he doesn''t


    love me anymore?" Hailey asked aggrievedly.


    Diana humphed coldly. "He''s been in love with you for three years. How can he stop loving you just


    like that? Even if he doesn''t love you anymore, he may lust over your body!" "Being deprived of the


    chance to consummate a marriage of three years is a huge insult and regret for any man!"


    "Thest time you passed out while kneeling on the ground at his ce, he secretly took liberties


    with you, and that''s enough to show that he''s still attracted to you!"


    Sylvie could catch what Diana meant. She asked, "Do you mean we should create a chance for


    Hailey and Jordan to do the deed? That''s a tall order. If it weren''t for Lucky''s injury, he wouldn''t have


    been willing toe to our ce the other day. If Hailey goes to see him again, he''ll probably


    choose to turn her away."


    Diana nodded and said, "Jordan is indeed very ruthless, but it''s not like we don''t stand a chance at


    all."


    "Hailey, you still remember your grandaunt, don''t you?"


    Hailey nodded, "Of course I remember. Grandaunt Lily is so nice to me and Jordan. On the day that


    I went to the hotel with Tyler..."


    At this point, Hailey paused for a moment as she felt extremely awkward. Still, she soon continued,


    "In the morning of that day, Jordan heard that Grandaunt Lily was severely ill and wanted to drive


    me to her ce to see her."

    Hailey''s grandaunt was Lily, the younger sister of Hailey''s grandfather. She had moved to a nearby


    city, South Daytona, after getting married.


    Diana said, "I just received a call from Lily''s son. He said that she''s not going to make it past three


    days."


    "Huh?"


    Everyone was shocked and sad.


    After all, they were rtives, and Lily had always been kind to them.


    Sylvie said, "Oh, I know what Diana intends to do. She wants to invite Jordan to go to the funeral


    with us after Aunt Lily passes’ Aunt Lily has always been nice to Jordan. He definitely wouldn''t


    refuse!"


    Diana red at Sylvie and barked furiously, "You stupid woman! No wonder you guys couldn''t make


    such a splendid son-inw stay!"


    "What''s the point of asking him to attend her funeral together with us!?! Jordan has his own car and


    chauffeur. He knows where Lily lives too. He''ll at most meet us once more during the funeral. What


    help is that going to do for Hailey''s rtionship with him!?!"


    Sylvie didn''t dare to speak because she couldn''t guess what Diana had in mind.


    Diana said, "Hailey, Lily is the only one of all our rtives who doesn''t despise Jordan and has


    always treated him well."


    "In the past, I always thought it was because she was nice and treated everyone equally."


    "However, in the past two days, I repeatedly recalled the things she had said to me during our


    previous meetings."


    "I concluded that the reason she was so nice to Jordan was that your grandfather had told her the


    truth about Jordan''s identity. She had long known that Jordan is a multi-billionaire!"


    "What?"


    All the Camdens were bbergasted!


    "Grandaunt Lily knew about it all along? Why didn''t she


    tell me?"


    Hailey was about to burst into tears.


    Elie was also on the verge of crying. She eximed agitatedly, "Grandaunt Lily was aware of the


    truth? Why didn''t she let Jordan marry me then? Grandaunt Lily is so biased!"


    Diana was making wild guesses because Lily was too sick to speak to them over the phone, so


    there was no way to confirm it.


    However, everyone unanimously agreed with her conjecture!


    Drew said, "I''ve always been puzzled as to why Grandaunt Lily was always so nice to Jordan even


    though he was just a live-in husband of Hailey''s. It turns out she was already aware of the truth a


    long time ago. Wait, that doesn''t seem right. Didn''t Jordan say that Grandpa wasn''t allowed to


    inform the Camdens of the truth?"


    Diana smiled and said, "Your Grandaunt Lily had been married to her husband for decades and is


    no longer a Camden. So, it wasn''t considered a vition of the rules by letting her know."


    Hailey thought it made sense too. She asked, "Grandma, what do you n to do next?"


    Diana said, "Since Lily knows the truth, thest thing she would want to see before her death is


    Hailey and Jordan getting divorced."


    "Lily has been very nice to Jordan in the past three years, and I''m sure he understands that." "So,


    we just have to tell Jordan to pretend that he and


    Hailey are still married in front of Lily."


    "After all, Lily is on her deathbed. Jordan won''t disagree."


    Hailey also felt that Jordan would not refuse. Sometimes, she felt that Jordan was more attached to


    Lily as an elder than she was!


    "But, after we''re done pretending to be married, he''ll still abandon me all the same," Hailey said with


    some despondence.


    Diana said, "All of us will be going to South Daytona together this time, and we''ll be staying there for


    a while. Since you two have to pretend to be married, you will definitely have to stay in the same


    room. When the timees, you''ll have to count on yourself to conquer Jordan!"
