My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 1280

Jordan stood up and asked Lauren, "Lauren, do you think that I was too heartless to Victoria after I broke up with her?"

Lauren had seen that Jordan and Victoria were once very much in love. Now, Jordan was so heartless to Victoria and was unwilling to help her become a golden mutant.

Jordan was afraid that Lauren would feel the same way. She would think that Jordan would do the same to her if they broke up.

Lauren lowered her head and said, "If we separate one day and I need your help with something, will you... will you do the same to me?"

Jordan was right. Lauren indeed had such thoughts!

Moving forward, Jordan comforted her immediately, "Lauren, you're different from Victoria. You've never done anything to hurt me. I would never do this to you. Besides, I promise you that we'll never be separated!"

Jordan was already a high and mighty golden mutant, while Lauren was just an ordinary woman. Jordan knew that Lauren must be feeling very insecure.

Pulling her into his arms, Jordan hugged Lauren gently. Lauren hid in Jordan's arms and nodded. "Yes, let's never be apart..."

Victoria quickly left the capital. She knew that as long as she was in the capital, many people would watch her, giving others a great sense of insecurity.

Perhaps Victoria's crazy and presumptuous behavior before was just like when she was in Nags Head, controlling many people. But now, after knowing the existence of the four golden mutants, she didn't dare to act recklessly.

There were too many people who could subdue her. When she was in Nags Head, she felt that she was invincible.

After leaving the capital, Victoria made a video call to Mike Baylor.

"Hey, Victoria, do you have good news for me?"

Mike Baylor knew that Victoria had gone to look for Jordan. He was hoping that Victoria could persuade Jordan.

However, Victoria said, "I'm sorry, Chief. I couldn't persuade Jordan. He still doesn't agree to create the fifth golden mutant."

Mike Baylor was very disappointed. "What? Even you can't persuade that stubborn guy? Damn it, I thought the relationship between the two of you was deep, but it seems like it's nothing much!"

Victoria lowered her head and apologized. "I'm sorry to disappoint you."

Mike Baylor sighed. "You're likely the most disappointed one. If he doesn't agree, you'll never become a golden mutant. Perhaps you're destined not to have this fate. Alright, I have something to do. You don't have to return to Immortal Lake for the time being. Think of another way!"

Mike Baylor, who was at Immortal Lake, hung up the video call. His face was still filled with undisguised disappointment.

"That despicable Jordan actually disagreed. Do you really want me to wait for another ten years? After people grow old, they lose interest in most things in the world. The current me lives very boringly every year. I don't want to suffer for another ten years!"

Mike Baylor clenched his fists angrily and smashed the wooden table on his right.

For someone with Mike Baylor's ability, it could be said that he could have anything he wanted. If he wanted money, he could get it. If he wanted women, there was no one in the world that he couldn't get other than the Moon Maiden.

Therefore, Mike Baylor was no longer interested in many things. Money and women could no longer excite him.
