"Let Hailey be around Jordan again?"
Charleston frowned. "Hailey is indeed the most suitable candidate to hone Jordan's character. Jordan's emotional and character trial wasn't too successful."
"However, Hailey hurt Jordan so badly. Wouldn't it be too cruel to let him see her around all the time?"
Jesse said, "Grandpa, only by enduring this kind of unbearable experience can one cultivate a resilience beyond most ordinary people."
"Ever since we were young, you've always taught us to bravely face things that ordinary people don't dare to face."
"Jamie and Jordan have undergone all sorts of training since we were young. After we grew up, we went to various parts of the world to train. We didn't have a deep relationship with our parents."
"Initially, I was very envious of ordinary children. I was envious that they could be with their parents every day."
"However, later on, after I learned about our family secret, I understood Grandpa's good intentions."
"Grandpa, in order to make Jordan an even more outstanding and more emotionally-mature successor, we have to be ruthless to him. Only then can he take on the great responsibility in the future!"
Charleston sighed. He seemed unable to refute Jesse.
"Let's put this matter aside for now. Let me think about it."
"Yes, Grandpa."
At that moment, Jordan and Lauren were holding hands as they returned to the fruit grove outside the castle to admire the exotic fruits.
Jordan asked, "Honey, Hailey will be living in the castle too. Are you upset by that?"
Lauren shook her head. "No, I know you don't love her anymore. I'm not worried that you'll secretly meet her behind my back, hehe."
Jordan smiled. "I wouldn't do such a thing with her. Honey, if you have any dirty clothes or anything you need in the future, just tell her to do it."
"She has always felt superior to you and thinks she's prettier than you. From what I know of her, if you can deliberately anger her, she will stomp off on her own in a rage."
Lauren held her hair and lowered her head to dodge a drooping branch. She smiled.
"I'm not that kind of woman. Besides, I think she still loves you very much. When she was pursuing Brad, my mother liked her very much."
"I believe that it won't be long before she gets our family's approval and becomes Brad's wife."
"To be honest, the Howard family's wealth and status are good enough for her. If she's only pursuing material things, there's no need for her to abandon Brad and risk everything just to come here to find you." "She still likes you." Jordan recalled what Hailey had said when she caught up with him at the song concert.
Jordan commented. "She does love money and she does still like me. But she came to England only because she was supposed to have what you have now. She feels cheated."
Lauren nodded. Just then, her phone rang.
Taking out her phone, she saw that it was her mother, Marissa.
"Hello, Mom."
Marissa asked, "Daughter, where are you? Are you with Jordan?"
Lauren answered, "Yes, Jordan and I are taking a walk in his fruit grove."
Marissa said, "Oh, okay, okay. Um, tell Jordan to send his family's golden carriage to pick me and some friends up at the airport."
Lauren was stunned. "Mom, you're in England? Didn't Jordan tell you not to come? Why did you suddenly..."
