In the luxurious presidential suite on the top floor of the Intercontinental Hotel in Houston, Jordan, who had been eavesdropping with his AKG headphones, could not hear the loud sounds of a downpour outside the window.
However, at this moment, he felt like there was a thunderstorm roaring in his heart!
At this moment, Jordan finally knew the truth of this matter!
It turned out that Victoria decided to break up with Jordan after finding out who her father's murderer was!
"Who killed Victoria's father?"
At this moment, in the Mercedes Benz on the expressway.
Russell let Victoria hit him and took the initiative to take the blame. "You're right, Victoria, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have told you about these, and I shouldn't have disrupted your stable life."
"Since you love Jordan so much, you can pretend that you didn't hear what I said and that you never came to Houston!"
"Your father is my best friend. I'll avenge him on my own. Stay out of this and take it that nothing has happened before. Go look for Jordan!"
Russell sounded loyal and righteous, but Jordan knew he must have deliberately said that only because he knew Victoria's character well.
Jordan understood Victoria well enough and knew that she wasn't the type of person who would choose to avoid reality for a peaceful life, and put aside the matter of her father's murder.
'All this shrewd old man, Russell, does is coax and deceive women!'
Indeed, Victoria stopped hitting Russell and cried, "No, I won't go back to Jordan. It's over between us. I'll take revenge on my father myself. I'll kill that bastard on my own, even if it might cost my life!"
Hearing this, Jordan was astonished.
Victoria was actually ready to die with that murderer!
"Silly honey, why do you want to risk your own life? The Steeles have forces all over the world. Why don't you just tell me who it is and I'll help you deal with him?"
"Victoria must be worried about implicating me. Maybe that person has an impressive status, maybe he's very difficult to deal with..."
Jordan continued to listen for a while and discovered that Victoria's crying had gradually ceased and she stopped speaking too.
At this moment, Jordan had already removed his earphones. He was now aware of the reason that Victoria left him.
Now, he just needed to find out who the murderer is!
"Pablo, Salvatore!"
Jordan called the two of them over and exclaimed, "Bring Russell here to me immediately!"
"Yes!"
While the two went to nab Russell, Jordan called Emily.
"Emily."
"What's the matter, Jordan?"
"Did your sister ever mention to you who the murderer of your father was?"
"No, my sister and Uncle Russell have been investigating for years, but they haven't found out who the murderer is. Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Jordan didn't answer and instead continued to ask, "In that case, do you know the specific time and specific location where your father was murdered?"
After some thought, Emily answered, "My father passed away 11 years ago in France, but I can't remember the specific place and time. Why are you asking? Did my sister tell you something?"
Jordan realized that both Victoria and Russell had not told Emily about the fact that they had found out who the murderer was.
