My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 423

Jordan asked in surprise, "Mr. Howard Sr., how did you guess that it was my second brother who did it? How much do you know about him?"

Martin smiled and said, "Ever since he took my granddaughter away from New York City and threw her onto a plane just to make you sleep with her once, I knew that Jamie was the one behind all the conspiracies."

"Jordan, do you know why Jamie did this to you?"

Jordan sighed and then shook his head. "1 don't know. I'm on pretty good terms with Jamie. Although we rarely meet, he has always been nice to me. Even if we're half-siblings, there's no need for us to kill him if he doesn't treat me as a brother."

"Our family's assets are enough for all seven of us and each of us will have an endless amount of wealth. He has no reason to do this."

To his surprise, Martin chuckled after hearing his words. "Do you want to know why he did this to you?"

Jordan was stunned. Based on what Martin said, he seemed to know the reason! But how could an outsider like him know the reason!?!

"Do you know?" Jordan was bewildered.

Martin nodded and said, "He does want to harm you to compete with you but he's not competing with you for the inheritance of assets but your family's secret!"

Jordan was immediately shocked. This old man did know that the Steeles had unknown family secrets!

After thinking through it carefully, Jordan felt that Martin's words were very reasonable. There was no need for Jamie to vie for the billions of dollars of assets because he could have any amount of money he wanted.

Jesse and Jordan didn't value money because their thoughts had already become transcendent. No matter how much money they had, they were just numbers that they couldn't use.

Hence, if they were going to fight, it must be because of the family's secret!

Jesse had told Jordan that Jamie might have already found out about the family's secrets. Hence, Jamie had every reason to go after Jordan!

However, these were all matters of the Steeles and there was no need for Jordan to tell an outsider much about it.

Jordan laughed and said, "Mr. Howard Sr., you seem to be very interested in my family's secrets. If I'm not wrong, you must have asked me to marry your granddaughter so that you could use her to get hold of my family's secret, huh!?!"

However, Martin didn't hide it at all. "Of course! I would never shortchange myself. If the Steeles didn't have such great power and this secret that makes me curious... Not to mention that you already have a daughter with Lauren. Even if you had ten, I would never let you marry her."

Jordan humphed coldly and exclaimed, "You can try!"
