Chapter 1218 - 1218 Fireworks Gala!
1218 Fireworks Gala!
At that moment, Jordan was reading the Cla.s.sic of Mountains and Seas in the study.
When he went to the Howards to look for Lauren, he saw that her grandfather had this book on his bookshelf. For some reason, he suddenly wanted to read it, so he took it back.
“Jordan! You’re so hardworking. It’s already so late and you’re still reading!”
Emily rushed in casually and sat next to Jordan. She wrapped her arms around Jordan’s arm. Jordan felt a little awkward because his arm would touch a place that he should not touch.
!!
Jordan looked at Emily and said, “Seeing how happy you are, your sister agreed to let you go to the Immortal Lake, right?”
Emily said happily, “As expected of a Deity. I don’t need to tell you. Hehe, that’s right. My sister agreed. She even asked us to go a day earlier. There’s a fireworks c.o.c.ktail party the night before the ceremony. We can watch the fireworks and drink together. Jordan, let’s go a day earlier!”
However, Jordan frowned. He did not look very happy.
If Victoria was still Jordan’s woman, Jordan would definitely be there. He would use his “making something out of nothing” ability to make this fireworks c.o.c.ktail party show the most gorgeous fireworks and beautiful scenery in history.
However, Jordan and Victoria had already broken up. The Immortal Lake was not Jordan’s territory, so there was no need for him to partic.i.p.ate in this event.
“I won’t go to the fireworks party. I’ll be there on the day of the ceremony.”
Emily pouted and shook Jordan’s arm. She said coquettishly, “Jordan, come on, come on. Let’s go play together.”
Jordan let go of Emily’s arm and said, “Emily, your sister and I are no longer in that kind of relations.h.i.+p. It’s not suitable for me to attend her private parties. Moreover, Lauren is about to give birth soon. Her emotions have been unstable recently. I want to stay and accompany her.”
Hearing this, Emily didn’t insist. “Alright, then have someone else take me there. My sister said she’ll be worried if I go and find her alone.”
Jordan nodded. If Emily wanted to go early, Jordan would definitely not let her go alone.
After all, the Immortal Lake was far from the capital. Moreover, Randall had been missing ever since he left. Once he found out that Victoria had taken his position as the chief, he might attack her family.
Jordan said, “Alright, who do you want to send you there? Park Sora, Rong Bingshao, Dragon, and Salvatore are all mutants. You can decide.”
Emily said, “Dragon and Salvatore are both fine!”
“I’m here! I’m here to send Ms. Emily off!”
At this moment, Salvatore suddenly walked in with his arm raised high.
Jordan glanced at Salvatore. “I really wonder if you have telepathy or if you have lightning-like speed like Rong Bingshao. How did you appear so quickly?”
Salvatore smiled and said, “I smelled Ms. Emily’s Armani perfume, so I came here. Haha!”
Emily was also pleasantly surprised. “Wow, Salvatore is amazing. You can actually tell that I’m using Armani perfume.”
Salvatore said proudly, “That’s for sure. I just checked. It’s some Amorous Love Perfume from Armani. It seems to only cost one or two hundred. Ms. Emily, are you poor? Why are you using such cheap perfume? If you don’t have the money, ask our Mr. Jordan for it. Mr. Jordan is just worried that he can’t spend the money. You can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars as you please.”
With Jordan’s current status, he could have as much money as he wanted. Money was not within his consideration at all.
Emily giggled. “Really? Jordan, give me a few hundred thousand then. I want to buy TikTok.”
Although Jordan had a lot of money, he would not spend it recklessly, nor would he ruin the relations.h.i.+ps in the industries.
If Jordan wanted to, he could buy and monopolize all industries in the country.
Jordan said, “Let Salvatore take you to the Immortal Lake, then you can ask your sister for money. She’s the richest person in the world now. As long as she wants to, she can easily control the people in the bank. The bank’s money will be sent to you.”
Jordan had already agreed to let Emily leave with Salvatore.
Emily punched Jordan lightly, “Jordan, you’re so stingy. You don’t even give me money to spend. When I see my sister tomorrow, I’ll complain to her that you spoke ill of her.”
Jordan immediately became nervous. “Don’t talk nonsense. Victoria and I are not so friendly now.”
Emily said, “I’ll say that you like her. You even asked me to help you get back together with my sister. Hahaha.”
Hearing this, Jordan was even more nervous. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
What if Emily really told Victoria and she agreed to get back together? That would be too awkward!
Salvatore hurriedly said, “Mr. Jordan, don’t be nervous. Ms. Emily is just joking. I’ll keep an eye on her and not let her spout nonsense. Ms. Emily, don’t disturb Mr. Jordan from reading. Go back and rest. Why don’t I accompany you?”
With that, Salvatore brought Emily out.
…
At this moment, on the Antarctic Continent.
Randall was chasing after a dazzling blue bird. As he chased, he shouted, “Oh my, my Irene, get on the plane quickly. It’s been a day and we haven’t even left the South Pole. I’m still rus.h.i.+ng back to deal with Victoria and Jordan!”
Randall had left the South Pole a long time ago, but it was not easy to take away the mutated tiger, the mutated gorilla, and this n.o.ble Devotion Bird at the same time.
Mutated tigers and mutated gorillas were huge. Randall had no choice but to send two specially-made planes to transport them. On the other hand, the Devotion Bird followed Randall’s plane, and Randall specially took care of it.
However, even so, Irene was still not satisfied. After the plane took off for a while, she threw a tantrum and kept making shrill noises. The sound she made could make a pilot dizzy.
So, they had no choice. As soon as Irene called out, they had to stop.
…
The night before Victoria’s succession ceremony.
At nine o’clock in the evening, Salvatore brought Emily to the Immortal Lake.
There were people waiting at the entrance of the lake. However, Victoria had already told them that her sister would come here, so the two of them entered without a hitch.
“Sister!”
When Emily saw Victoria, she happily ran over and gave her a hug.
When Victoria saw Emily, she also smiled happily. All along, Emily had always been taken care of by Victoria. The happiest thing for her was to see Emily’s happy smile and life.
Salvatore also walked forward and said, “Victoria, oh, no, I should call you Chief Clarke. Congratulations! Mr. Jordan can’t attend tonight’s c.o.c.ktail party because he has to take care of Madam Lauren, but he will definitely be there for the ceremony tomorrow morning!”
Victoria had expected that Jordan would not come, so she did not mind.
She looked at Salvatore, and for the first time, her eyes revealed gentleness. Her voice was also very polite. “Salvatore, thank you for accompanying Emily here. It’s been hard on you along the way. Emily didn’t cause you any trouble, right?”
