Chapter 11 Settle the Score


    Irene limped out of the hospital. Not far from the hospital, she saw a beggar squatting on the ground


    and asking for money. She casually threw Edric''s gold card to the beggar.


    The beggar held the gold card and looked at her incredulously. Irene took two steps and turned back to


    tell the beggar, "There is no password and no limit. You can take as much as you want!"


    Looking at the beggar picking up the gold card and going to the ATM nearby, Irene let out a sigh of


    relief. The anger that she had held in her heart had finally been relieved a little.


    "Aren''t you a rich and pretentious guy, Mr. Myers? I''ll let you pretend!"


    She stopped a car in a cheerful mood and went home. With her hands and legs injuries in the ident,


    Irene didn''t go to work the next day and called for leave. Jordan answered the phone in a sharp and

    harsh tone, "Irene Nelson, are you pushing your luck with me because I let you go home early


    yesterday? Are you bing a goof-off?"


    "That''s not true, Mr. Reed. Seriously, my hands and legs are injured."


    "I don''t think your voice sounds like something''s wrong. As long as you can get up, you''lle to work


    immediately. Crawl to thepany if you have to!"


    Jordan hung up the phone after that. Irene red up. Jordan''s unpredictable mood made it impossible


    for her to work for him. But beggars couldn''t be choosers. She swallowed her anger and went to the


    Irene pushed open the door of the president''s office. Jordan was leaning against the chair and making


    a phone call. He was stunned when he saw her limping in with gauze wrapped around her hands. "Are


    you really injured or just faking it to fool me?"


    "I''m really injured!"


    "Come and let me check!" Jordan ordered rudely. Irene walked to him with downcast eyes. Before


    Irene could reach out her hand, Jordan grabbed her hand and unwrapped the gauze. He finally


    believed it when he saw the wound.


    "What''s wrong with you? Why do you act rashly as soon as you came back? You had a dispute with


    others at the party before, and now you hurt yourself?"


    "I didn''t want it to happen," Irene answered with her head lowered.


    She was so close to Jordan that he could smell the fragrance on her body. Jordan was suddenly


    aroused. He had never liked this assistant that Nathan White assigned to him, so he had never looked


    at her seriously. Today, he unexpectedly found something different about her when he was face to face


    with her.


    Her fingers were slender and white. And he could clearly see her slender, smooth, and fair neck when


    she was standing in front of him with her head lowered. He felt his heartbeat faster.


    Was he possessed? How could he be interested in such an old-fashioned and unexciting woman?


    Jordan instantly recalled that Irene had never looked him in the eye since the day she started to work


    for him. She always looked down deferentially. There was nothing he hated more than a dull person


    like this. However, he suddenly realized today that something was wrong.


    Jordan was very handsome. Countless women couldn''t wait to throw themselves on him. Why did this


    young woman not show that kind of affection for him?


    This idea irritated Jordan at once. He ordered Irene in an angry voice, "Raise your head!"


    Irene lowered her head and whispered slowly, "Mr. Reed, please tell me if you need anything!"


    Jordan was furious that she didn''t listen to hismand. He grabbed Irene''s chin and forced her to


    raise her head.


    Irene bore the pain and looked at Jordan as he forced her head up. What Jordan saw was a pair of


    extremely bright eyes.


    He bit back the vicious words he was going to say. Instead, he was surprised by this woman''s beautiful


    eyes!


    Jordan was used to being casual and did not care about anything. He pulled off the sses Irene was


    wearing and had a closer look at her eyes.


    Her facial features were exquisite, and her skin was very smooth. Her charming eyes were especially


    dazzling.


    Jordan cursed in a low voice, "Nathan White, I''m not done with you!"


    Irene didn''t understand what was wrong with Jordan and why he cursed Nathan White out of the blue.


    Her chin was in pain from his grip. She held back her anger and said, "Mr. Reed, can you let me go?"


    "Let you go? Okay, no problem. But you have to promise me one thing!"


    "What?"
