Chapter 698: Jordan To Marry Hailey Again?!
“Grandpa!”
Jesse cried out in excitement. Even he was surprised that his grandfather had chosen him as his successor.
Deep inside, Jesse knew that his grandfather had always doted on Jordan the most. Recently, it was only because of Jordan’s efforts that the Steeles had been saved from being kicked out by the other secret families.
If not for Jordan, the Steeles would no longer be a member of the eight great families!
It came as no surprise that Jesse thought he had lost to Jordan.
!!
Jesse burst out in excitement. “Grandpa, don’t worry. I swear, I will take good care of Jamie, Jordan and our sisters. I will take good care of everyone in the Steele family! I will definitely bring the Steele family back to our former glory! I will not lose to any other family!”
Victoria and Lauren continued kneeling on the ground. Although they felt indignant for their husband, they remained well-mannered and dignified. Charleston was already on his final breath. How could you argue with an old man who was about to die?
Jordan lowered his head. He did not show any reaction to this outcome. But it was impossible that he wouldn’t feel a little upset by it!
After all, Grandpa should have seen Jordan’s ability. Jordan had also completed all his training missions very well. It was only because of Jordan’s abilities that the Steeles were able to survive! Otherwise, they would have been kicked out by the other secret families!
More importantly, Jordan’s grandfather knew that Jordan might be a Deity! As a Deity, Jordan would definitely be able to lead the Steele family to glory and trample the other seven families under his feet!
So why did Charleston choose to hand over the position of family head to Jesse even though he knew Jordan’s special ident.i.ty?
Jordan did not refute or question his grandfather.
He knew that his grandfather must have his reasons for doing this. He chose to respect and accept any arrangements his grandfather made!
No one dared to raise any objections, except for Hailey, the only outsider in the room.
“That’s not right, Grandpa. Among your grandchildren, isn’t my ex-husband, Jordan, the most outstanding? You should pa.s.s the position of the family head to him!”
Hailey spoke up for Jordan not because he was her ex-husband, but for her benefit. She knew that the relations.h.i.+p between Jesse and Jordan was now strained. If Jesse controlled the Steele family, he might expel Jordan from the family. Jordan might be left with nothing.
If Jordan was left with nothing, his son with Hailey would also be left with nothing!
Although Victoria and Lauren hated Hailey, she had voiced out what they wanted to say but didn’t dare to. This made them look at her in a different light.
But Jesse flew into a rage!
Jesse glared at Hailey, a murderous intent flas.h.i.+ng across his face. “B*tch! How dare you question my grandfather’s decision! What right do you have?! You cheated on Jordan when you were married to him! Jordan is so innocent and kind-hearted. He’s the most capable and good-natured among us brothers! When I found out that you hurt Jordan, I couldn’t wait to kill you! If he hadn’t pleaded for mercy on your behalf, you would have already died! Men, quickly drag this b*tch out!”
“No.”
Jesse was about to speak when someone stopped him.
It was Charleston!
“Grandpa…”
Jesse turned to his grandfather in surprise.
Charleston had called Hailey over. It was obvious that he had something for her.
‘Is Jordan’s grandfather going to give me money? Oh my G.o.d, I’m so excited… will he give me a few million? That’s the least he could do, right? After all, I gave birth to a son for the Steele family! Hahaha, fortunately, I only had a daughter with that good-for-nothing Brad. Otherwise, I might not have the right to kneel here today!’
Hailey was extremely excited. She was already calculating how much money she would get! Even a person as shameless as Hailey only thought about getting a share of the Steeles’ wealth.
She would never even dare to dream about what Charleston said next!
Charleston looked at Jordan and Hailey. “The second thing I want to announce… Is that…
“Jordan, I want you to marry… Hailey again.”
Boom!
“Oh my G.o.d…”
“What?”
“Uh…”
The originally silent room was now in an uproar. Everyone couldn’t help exclaiming in shock!
Charleston’s request was too shocking. It was even more shocking than the announcement of who the head of the family was!
He wanted Jordan to marry Hailey again?
But Hailey had cheated on Jordan before!
Didn’t that mean he had to forgive her?
Even if Jordan chose to forgive her, this was a matter between Jordan and Hailey. Why was Charleston interfering with the two of them?
Jordan already had two beautiful wives. He was not lacking in this area at all!
“Why would…”
Victoria was dumbfounded. She looked down on Hailey ever since she was in Orlando. She never expected Jordan’s grandfather to ask Jordan to marry Hailey again. In that case, wouldn’t Victoria, Lauren and Hailey be one family?
Lauren also bit her lip and looked at Hailey. Actually, the two of them did look somewhat similar. Lauren felt that Hailey was quite beautiful.
But among everyone at present, Hailey was the most shocked! Her mouth was wide open, forming an O shape. She was completely dumbfounded!
“Marry… Jordan… again?”
Hailey thought that Charleston had called her over to give her some inheritance. After all, she had given birth to a son for the Steele family and was qualified to inherit something. She never expected such an unbelievable outcome!
Of everything in her life, Hailey’s biggest regret was divorcing Jordan and missing the opportunity to become the daughter-in-law of a wealthy and powerful family. She tried all means to win Jordan back, but he did not give her a chance at all. Eventually, she had to give up.
Never had she expected Jordan’s grandfather to fulfill her wish and give her another chance!
“Grandpa…”
Jordan looked at Charleston with a distressed expression. He had been upset when Charleston announced that Jesse would be the new head of the family. Even so, Jordan did not display any reaction.
However, Jordan could not remain silent about this!
How could that b*tch Hailey be worthy of being Jordan’s wife?
It was true that Jordan had once loved her deeply. The two of them also had a son together. However, during their marriage, Hailey betrayed Jordan several times and hurt him.
If Jordan chose to forgive her, wouldn’t it imply that it was fine for a woman to have an affair?
In the future, all the women in the world could cheat if they wanted to!
“Grandpa, you know what Hailey did to me in the past. How can you ask me to marry her again?”
