My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 320

When he left DC previously, Jordan made Salvatore send Brad to the police station in the UFO-shaped aircraft, using the auto-navigation.

He didn't expect that Brad could leave unscathed.

That was proof of the Howards' extraordinary power.

In the private room of the restaurant, Brad explained with a smile, "Oh, Chloe's father is Jordan Steele, the president of J Corporation."

"That bastard cheated my sister out of her feelings and even knocked her up. Miss Clarke, I heard you used to be in a relationship with him, right?"

Victoria felt extremely embarrassed because she didn't expect Brad to ask her such a question in front of Russell!

Even Cayden wouldn't dare to be so rude!

It seemed that the Howards were far more powerful than the Huxleys, so much that they didn't take Russell seriously at all.

At this moment, Lauren chastised, "Brad, don't spout nonsense!"

She then took the initiative to apologize to Victoria. "Sorry, Miss Clarke, he's just too blunt and straightforward. He doesn't mean any harm."

Victoria smiled. The few of them sat down and began ordering some food.

After ordering, Russell smiled and said, "Mr. Howard,

Miss Howard, you're doing me a great favor by coming all the way to Houston two days in advance to attend my wedding. Where would you like to visit the next two days? I'll make the arrangements!"

Brad glanced out the window. The special feature of the rooftop restaurant was the beautiful view of the city's skyline that it offered.

The view of the river and scenery seemed even more romantic under the falling raindrops.

Brad said, "I'm afraid the rain won't stop for a day or two.

I think we'd better stay in the hotel."

Russell then asked, "How is Mr. Howard Sr.'s health lately?"

Brad nodded and said, "My grandfather is in the pink of health. He also asked me to inform you he will attend the wedding on time on the 15th of March if nothing goes wrong."

"Really?"

Russell was overjoyed. The Howards had not only sent two third-generation descendants to Houston in advance, even their grandfather was surprisingly also going to attend his wedding, making Russell feel extremely flattered.

Reason being, the Howards had a high status and there was no need for them to suck up to Russell at all.

"Let me toast to you, Mr. Howard and Miss Howard! Thank you for coming to Houston!"

Russell lifted his glass and so did Victoria. The four of them then began drinking.

Although it was noon, the few of them drank to their

hearts' content. Since the Howards were noble and highly mighty, Russell and Victoria had to host them well.

Brad seemed to be planning to go back to the hotel to get a good sleep after drinking. Hence, he chugged his drinks quickly.

Among the four people, Lauren was the only one who drank only a sip. After all, she had brought Chloe over.

Soon, after three rounds of wine, Brad took Chloe to the hall outside the private room to enjoy the view while Russell went to the restroom.

Victoria and Lauren were left alone in the private room.

The two gorgeous women, who were love rivals, were facing each other silently for a long time.

Afterwards, Lauren suddenly asked, "Miss Clarke, why did you break up with Jordan?"

"A few days ago, Jordan had been spending time with me and he'd mentioned your name every single day. He said that you're beautiful, that you two are very much in love with each other, and that you're about to get married soon."

Jordan listened carefully, surprised to hear Lauren helping him with that.

Victoria said, "We aren't suitable for each other. He... he's really nice, but he's too young for me. I prefer mature men."

After saying that, Victoria asked Lauren, "Can you tell me the story of you and Jordan? How did you... get pregnant with his child?"

Although Victoria was no longer Jordan's girlfriend, she

was still deeply in love with Jordan and very much wanted to know about Jordan's past.

Lauren said, "He forced himself onto me four years ago."
