Hotel magnate? Restaurant mogul? Delivery service owner?
Jordan wanted to subvert and exterminate the big bosses who had dominated Orlando for years in one fell swoop!
Among them, Tyler was the first person that came to Jordan’s mind!
As soon as he thought of Tyler, Jordan recalled everything that his ex-wife, Hailey said.
“Look at Tyler. His family is worth more than a billion dollars. Can you compare to him, you good-for-nothing?”
Jordan humphed softly and asked Victoria, “I heard that the Collins are a first-tier family in Orlando who are worth more than a billion dollars?”
Victoria answered, “You can say so. They were worth more than a billion dollars two years ago, but their net worth has shrunk greatly, now they’re probably worth about 500 million dollars. They’re not much better than the Camdens now.”
Recalling that Jordan claimed that Hailey was in an extramarital affair with Tyler during the birthday banquet yesterday, Victoria immediately continued.
“Hailey Camden must be blind to have chosen that good-for-nothing Tyler Collins over you! Once she finds out your true identity, I’m afraid she’ll be full of regrets.”
The thought of Hailey Camden made Jordan feel a little bitter. After all, he had loved her for three years!
Victoria continued, “The Camdens are working on a project lately, and they want us to invest 11 million dollars in it. They offered me many benefits, but I’ll turn them down now and tell them to forget about cooperating with Ace Corporation!”
Victoria initially wanted to make the cooperation happen, but she knew Jordan was on bad terms with the Camdens. Since he used to be the live-in son-in-law of the Camdens, whom they had kicked out afterward, how could he be willing to cooperate with them?
To her surprise, Jordan said, “You fabricated a number of lies about me yesterday, but there is one thing that you were right about.”
“I keep work and personal life separate. So I won’t boycott the Camdens in business just because of my personal relationship with them.”
“Show me the proposal of that project.”
Victoria was a little surprised, and she thought to herself that Jordan indeed had a moral character.
“Yes, I’ll bring it over to you now.” Victoria turned around and was about to leave.
“Forget it, I’ll go with you and at the same time check out your office. I’d like to see if the office of a great beauty like you is full of fragrance.”
Jordan got up from his chair and followed Victoria.
Meanwhile, Tyler was still waiting anxiously in the lobby of the first floor. He hadn’t left yet.
He wanted to go up and see what was going on, but he couldn’t do so without an access card.
“Hey, Mr. Collins.”
A female employee of Ace Corporation took the initiative to walk towards Tyler all of a sudden.
Tyler looked at her, but he didn’t recognize who she was.
The lady laughed and said, “Mr. Collins, surely you haven’t forgotten who I am, have you? That’s really sad. You bought me a drink at LINX Bar the other day. Afterward, we went to… You had fun with me the entire night.”
Only then did Tyler remember that he had a one-night-stand with her previously.
The poor girl’s mediocre looks and tacky makeup made Tyler feel like Hailey was hundreds of notches higher than her.
He secretly cursed, ‘Damn it, I must have had too much to drink that day. I accepted such a lousy woman.’
However, Tyler remained smiling and asked, “Oh, yes, I remember. Do you work at Ace Corporation?”
The lady nodded.
Tyler grabbed her hand and said, “Quick, take me upstairs. Your deputy president Miss Clarke is in danger!”
A minute later, Tyker arrived at the floor where Jordan was.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, he heard a few female employees of Ace Corporation whispering among themselves.
“Hey, you know what? She knelt down right after she saw the president! Do you believe it? She got on her knees the second she saw him!”
Tyler didn’t know what they were talking about, but he didn’t care about the gossip of Ace Corporation either.
Hence, he simply walked up to them and asked, “May I ask, where is Miss Victoria Clarke?”
The person he asked was Ashley, Victoria’s secretary. “Miss Clarke is in her office. Do you have an appointment?”
Tyler ignored her and dashed straight into Victoria’s office.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he discovered that Jordan was also in Victoria’s office!
It just so happened that Victoria had found the project proposal of the Camdens and handed it to Jordan.
However, in Tyler’s eyes, she looked like she was assigning a task to her assistant.
“Tyler? Who let you in?” Victoria rebuked furiously.
Since Tyler was Jordan’s rival, Victoria couldn’t get too close to him and his family from now on!
Tyler didn’t answer her question and instead pointed at Jordan. “Wow, Jordan, you embarrassing thief! Sure enough, you’re here! Are you hiding here to prepare to exact revenge against Miss Clarke!?!”
Jordan retorted, “Is there something wrong with you? Is this a place you can just enter as you please? Get lost!”
Jordan was the president of Ace Corporation and the owner of this building. How could he allow Tyler to act brazenly and presumptuously here!?!
When Tyler saw how arrogant Jordan was, he snapped indignantly, “How dare you talk to me like that. This is Victoria’s office. You should be the one to get lost! Isn’t that right, Victoria?”
Smack!
Victoria slapped Tyler on the face and rebuked him in exasperation, “Who are you calling Victoria? Call me Miss Clarke!”
Tyler looked extremely embarrassed, and the sounds of Ashley’s laughter could be heard coming from outside.
Tyler gradually felt that there was something amiss with the situation. It seemed that everyone was aware that Jordan was in Victoria’s office.
But why didn’t Ashley and the others stop him?
After thinking about it, Tyler suddenly pointed at Jordan and yelled, “I get it! You’re not here to take revenge on Miss Clarke but to be her bodyguard!”
