Jordan said, "Okay then, I'll try this bubble bath. By the way, I see that there is red wine and Bluetooth speakers here. Does Lauren usually drink wine and listen to music when she takes baths in the tub?"
Felicia nodded and said, "Yes, Missy loves listening to music when she's taking a shower."
Jordan asked, "What is her favorite song?"
Felicia said, "Need You Now by Lady Antebellum, and many more. I'll sort out the playlist for you afterwards."
"Okay."
"I won't disturb you any longer, then. I'll go outside now. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, thank you."
After Felicia left, Jordan began taking a bath in the million-dollar luxurious bathtub and imagined how Lauren felt during her baths in the past.
Jordan couldn't help but pick up the glass of red wine glass and take a sip out of it before connecting to the Bluetooth speaker and playing Lauren's favorite song, 'Need You Now'.
Jordan had not heard of that song before.
However, he was instantly attracted to it.
'What a nice love song!'
At this moment, Jordan felt he had seriously underestimated the music scene.
Jordan's favorite music genre was R&B.
"Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor..."
"Reaching for the phone cause"
"I can't fight it anymore..."
"It's a quarter after one. I'm all alone and I need you now..."
Listening to the song and enjoying the red wine, Jordan imagined Lauren must have done the same while thinking about him three years ago.
Jordan once again remembered the words that Lauren had said to him in the hospital just now. "Jordan, hug me..."
Lauren's voice kept running through Jordan's mind, and her stunning beauty kept surfacing in front of him.
Jordan felt as if his heart had been struck by an arrow.
"I... seem to... like Lauren."
"No way. How is that possible? Victoria is my rightful fiancee and my future partner!"
As soon as that idea came to mind, Jordan forced himself to stop thinking about Lauren, although he knew he wouldn't be able to stop himself if he were to really fall in love with her. It wasn't something that could be changed just by thinking about it.
However, Victoria's whereabouts were now unknown, so there was no way he'd fall in love with another woman because that wasn't fair to Victoria.
After taking a bath, Jordan headed to Lauren's room and lay down on her bed. He then held Chloe in his arms while telling her bedtime stories and coaxing her to sleep.
Jordan spent every waking minute with Chloe for the next two days.
However, although she had her father's company, Chloe was still very reliant on Lauren because she had been following by her side for the last three years.
"Daddy, I miss Mommy. Why is Mommy still hospitalized? Can you wake her up?"
Chloe's eyes were glistening with tears. In the last two days, Jordan had taken Chloe to Matt's place, but Lauren would lay in bed during all their visits.
Jordan also felt that Lauren had been hospitalized for a long time. "Chloe, I'll wake Mommy up now and ask her to come back to accompany you!"
Jordan was initially reluctant to interrupt Lauren's hypnotherapy because the purpose of it was for her to enter the illusory world where she could be with him.
However, regardless of the reason, Jordan had to wake Lauren up because she was Chloe's mother, after all. She couldn't get addicted to being immersed in the illusory world and ignore her daughter, who existed in real life!
