My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 496

Hailey's question made Jordan tremble. He felt especially sensitive!

'Damn Hailey, this b*tch. She actually said such ambiguous words to arouse me and even did it in front of my wife!'

In reality, Hailey had addressed Jordan as "master" before. It was when they were role-playing as master and servant in their Orlando villa after their reconciliation. It was obvious that Hailey had purposely called Jordan "master" to remind him of those wonderful times.

Although Lauren was beautiful beyond words, she was not as sexy as Hailey.

A good woman was more worthy of love than a bad woman. However, bad women were much better than good women in certain things. They knew how to make a man happy.

Jordan felt very awkward. He could not blame Hailey for trying to tempt him because there was nothing wrong with what she said.

Since Hailey was a servant to the Steeles, Jordan was indeed her master. Many servants addressed him as "Master", so there was technically nothing wrong with what she had said.

Moreover, even Lauren and the rest did not notice anything amiss with how Lauren addressed him. So in the end, Jordan had no choice but to reply awkwardly, "Hmm... not bad."

Hailey bent over respectfully in front of Jordan. She continued to ask in a demure manner, "Master, is there anything else I can do for you?"

Jordan could not stand Hailey calling him Master. It was too tempting. It was not that Jordan lacked self-control or that he had forgiven her. It was just that the memories from the past were too vivid.

"Nothing else. Hailey, you don't need to be here anymore. Go back to your room and look after the child."

Hailey replied respectfully, "Thank you, Master."

Watching Hailey leave, Lauren asked softly, "Hubby, did you let your ex-wife leave because your heart ached for her when you saw her serving us?"

It seemed like Lauren was really bad at recognizing the tricks of a bad woman. There was no way Jordan would feel sorry for Hailey!

If anything, Jordan felt rather smug when he saw the arrogant Hailey serving food like a maid! But he could not tell Lauren the truth in case she was jealous.

Therefore, he said, "Yes, we were once husband and wife after all."

Lauren soon finished her meal. She hadn't taken a single drop of alcohol. As she had gotten drunk during her first dinner here and even sang in public for the first time, this alone was sufficient to make her quit drinking from then on!

Nevertheless, Jordan and the rest of the family drank throughout the meal.

Lauren stood up and left after finishing her food. She wanted to meet the son of Jordan and Hailey.

Since this child was that of Jordan, Lauren had to take on the responsibility of being his stepmother. She came to the servants' quarters where Hailey was staying. The room was small, but it was nicely decorated.

Knock-knock.

Lauren came to the doorway. The door was open, but she still knocked twice.

When Hailey saw Lauren, she immediately said, "Mrs.

Jor... Jordan..."

Hailey didn't want to call Lauren that. She wanted to be on the same level as her, but now, she was just a maid. Lauren was above her in status.

Lauren hurriedly said, "Ms. Camden, you can just call me by my name."

"Lauren, why are you here?" Hailey asked.
