Looking at Stefan's expression, he seemed uncharacteristically eager to go to Jordan's house and meet his family.
Jordan nodded. "Alright, I'll bring you and Chloe to my family's place when we get there. I'll pick Lauren up later."
Soon, the plane took off and rose to a high altitude. The Howard family's private jet was very luxurious. In order not to disturb the Howard family, Zara and Beatrice went to another part of the plane. They did not sit with Jordan and the rest.
After settling themselves with a coffee, Zara and Beatrice started to chat.
Zara said, "Beatrice, why do you think Fanny insisted on getting us to England for a gathering? I have a job. Many things are going on at the company now and I had to postpone several things at the last minute."
Beatrice replied, "Hasn't she always been pestering us to go over and see how well she is living now? Fanny is a vain person. She married into a rich family in England and she loves to show off."
"But I think that this time, she asked us to go to England together, mainly to see if Lauren's husband is rich, right?"
Zara nodded. "Yes, yes, I agree! Fanny always said that Lauren's husband is a liar. She also said that she and her husband have investigated. There is no famous Steele family in England at all."
"Fanny was planning to fly back on the 1st of April to attend Lauren and Chris' wedding, but she didn't come when she heard that Jordan was the groom."
Propping her chin on her hand, Beatrice looked at the clouds outside the window. "I also don't believe that Jordan is rich. He has been living in the Howard family residence since he got married. Lauren bought everything herself. As her husband, he has brought nothing to the table."
Zara took a sip of coffee. "Everything will be made clear when we get to England. On their wedding day, didn't Jordan's big brother say that he would give Lauren all their bar properties in England?"
"When we arrive at the bar, we'll know if Lauren is really the queen of the English bar scene!"
Beatrice smiled. "No wonder Fanny wanted to bring us to a bar for our welcome party. It looks like she wants to find out more about Jordan. Hehe, there's going to be a good show later."
The two of them chatted for a while before putting on their eye masks and falling asleep.
It took 10 hours for their flight to reach London. When they reached their destination, it was already six in the evening.
"Oh, I'm going to Daddy's house!"
Chloe jumped around happily.
"Walk slowly."
Jordan held Chloe's hand and carefully led her down the stairs. The others also slowly descended the stairs with their luggage.
The moment they alighted, they immediately saw more than 10 Rolls-Royces waiting for them! They were all limited edition white Rolls-Royces, each worth more than a million dollars’
Zara and Beatrice were completely stunned by the sight.
"Oh my god, so many white Rolls-Royces? Don't tell me all the white Rolls-Royces in the world have gathered here?"
"How magnificent. The Steeles are indeed generous!"
Stefan said to Jordan happily, "Jordan, your grandfather is too kind. He sent so many luxury cars to pick us up!"
However, Jordan was frowning a little. His grandfather was a low-profile person and it was impossible for him to have arranged something so flashy. There were so many Rolls-Royces, and they were all white.
Lauren smiled happily as well. She felt that she was being valued. She even complained to Jordan, "You lied to me yesterday when you said that your grandfather would give us a modest welcome."
At this moment, a tall woman alighted from one of the white cars. The woman looked very imposing. She was wearing sunglasses, a short skirt and pink high heels.
"Hey, isn't that Fanny?"
As the woman came into view, Zara and the rest immediately recognized her. She was their university schoolmate, Fanny!
