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.
