When Jordan saw Chris, he knew it was definitely not a coincidence that Lauren and Chloe were at the shopping mall.
Although the mall was full of luxury brand stores, there were many other upscale malls in DC, so there was no reason for them to be here.
He reckoned Chris must have found out that he was working there as a security officer and thus, deliberately drove there to watch Jordan make a fool out of himself!
"Damn it. It seems that Brad Howard isn't the only one following me, but Chris Hank has also sent someone to tail me!"
Jordan was feeling troubled because he hated the feeling of being tailed. Since he was tailed by someone, he would have no way of investigating Victoria's whereabouts.
When Chloe saw Jordan, she exclaimed gleefully, "Daddy, you look so handsome in this outfit!"
A little girl who was only over three years old obviously didn't know much about the difference in statuses between people. She merely felt that Jordan looked really suave in his uniform, which was very different from ordinary people.
However, Chris smiled and said, "Chloe, your father is wearing the uniform of a security officer!"
Chloe stared at Jordan with her eyes wide open and a look of admiration on her face. "Wow, what's a security officer!?! That's so cool! I want to be a security officer
when I grow up in the future!"
Chris hurriedly turned his head and explained, "A security officer is a very lowly..."
"Chris!" Before Chris could finish, Lauren stopped him. She interjected, "Chloe is still young, and I don't want you to introduce the social hierarchy to her at such a young age."
However, Lauren explained to Chloe, "A security officer is a very respectable profession. Daddy is here to check if we have a pass to enter. If we don't, he won't let us pass."
Chloe nodded and asked, "Do we have one, then?"
Lauren and Chloe both looked at Chris.
Jordan too, glanced at Chris and said, "Please display your gold membership card or proof of purchase, without either of which, you will not be allowed to park your car here."
Chris laughed out loud and said, "Hahahahaha... Jordan, I suddenly feel like the main character of a novel and you're the huge villain."
"You're deliberately making things difficult for me and refusing to let me enter, so I'll take out my gold membership card and put you to shame! I'm so familiar with this scene. Hahahaha...."
"Why would I not have a gold membership card? Watch me, punk!"
Chris pulled out the gold membership card of JFS mall from his wallet and flung it out of the car at Jordan!
Smack!
The gold card hit Jordan's body and then dropped onto the ground.
Chris humphed coldly. He was just humiliating Jordan on purpose because he wanted Jordan to bend down and pick it up for him!
On the other hand, Jordan indeed bent down to pick up the card.
However, Jordan didn't pick up a gold membership card, but a hospital consultation card.
Jordan looked at the card and read out loud, "DC Hospital, consultation card for infertility. Sir, did you pick up the wrong card?"
"What?" Chris was stunned. He remembered that the card he tossed out was the gold membership card of JFS mall!
Chris did not throw the wrong card out of the car, but Jordan swapped it the moment he picked it up!
A customer had thrown out that card when he came up just now.
Jordan did not have time to throw the card into the rubbish bin and instead, placed it in his pocket. He didn't expect it to come in handy at this moment.
Jordan took the initiative to hand the card to Chris and said, "That hospital indeed has the best fertility treatment for impotent men. Have you been treated yet?"
Chris flew into a rage and couldn't help but turn around to glance at Lauren, who was hanging her head low without uttering a word.
On the other hand, Chris interpreted her action as an expression of her disappointment in him!
Chris hurriedly explained, "Lauren, this punk is framing me. I'm not ill! I've never gone to a fertility clinic! I'm in the pink of health!"
"This consultation card must belong to Jordan. He must be the infertile one!"
Jordan sneered, "Are you kidding me? If I'm infertile, where did Chloe come from? We had a paternity test done!"
