Shaun said, "Jordan, don't misunderstand. I'm not teasing you. I'm just reminding you. Don't forget, if it weren't for me, you would have returned only to see the corpses of your wife and children, not living, breathing folks. We're on the same side now. I'll only want to ensure your safety and not harm you. Don't you think it's suspicious that Park Anya would come looking for you for no reason?"
When Shaun saw that Jordan was going to bring Park Anya to have some alone time, he instinctively felt that this would be very dangerous.
This was because in Shaun's impression, this woman was even more powerful than Park Sang-cheol and Park Chan-young.
Jordan said, "The last time we met, I invited her to follow me. Now that she has been expelled from the family, what's so suspicious about her coming to find me?"
Shaun said, "The last time Park Anya met you was when Lauren possessed her, and Park Sang-cheol was still alive. She decided not to follow you then. Now that Park Sang-cheol is dead and she's the only descendant left in the Park family, she is the only future heir to the Park family. Why would she choose to follow you at this time?"
Park Anya was shocked by Shaun's words. She looked a little flustered and she hurriedly explained, "My father will never pass the position of family heir to me. He said that he would find another woman to give birth to a son, but he would never choose me. He even said that I like you even though you are his enemy, and I deserve to die. He couldn't wait to kill me."
Jordan's heart ached at Park Anya's words. He knew that she must have suffered a lot in the family because he had killed Park Chan-young and Park Sang-cheol.
Especially when Lauren had possessed Park Anya to plead for mercy for Jordan, causing her to be expelled from the family. Jordan had always felt very guilty about that.
"What? The person who possessed me at that time was your wife? I thought it was Shaun." Park Anya quickly changed the topic.
Jordan was a little embarrassed and explained. "I'm sorry, Anya. I lied to you previously because I was afraid that you would blame Lauren. After all, she caused you to be expelled from the family."
Park Anya smiled. "No, I'm very happy that it was her and not that disgusting Shaun. Lauren possessed me and had sex with you. This means that she recognizes me as your woman. Lauren is your only official wife. If she acknowledges me, we can be together openly. I'm so happy!"
With that, Park Anya leaned her head against Jordan like a little bird.
Jordan hugged Park Anya and enjoyed this blissful feeling that he had imagined for many years. He had never thought that one day, Park Anya would no longer be so cold to him but cling to him like a little girl.
Shaun stared at Park Anya as if she was a vixen. As the saying went, only objective bystanders could see the game clearly. Jordan had too many feelings for Park
Anya. Even if he had a pair of divine eyes, he was temporarily blind to her true motives.
Meanwhile, Shaun was a cunning old fox. He could tell at a glance that this woman was not simply seeking refuge with Jordan.
Even if Park Anya was telling the truth, that she was really expelled from the family and Park Sang-jun really planned to have another son as his heir. Park Anya would not come looking for Jordan at a time like this.
Her brother, Park Sang-cheol, had only died a few days ago!
Shaun reminded Jordan again. "Jordan, it's better to be safe than sorry. How many heroes have fallen at the hands of a woman? Since you have the ability, why don't you use it before deciding if you want to take her in?"
As Shaun didn't want Park Anya to know that Jordan was a Deity, he referred to Jordan's ability in a vague way. Nevertheless, with Jordan's intelligence, he would definitely understand.
Jordan understood what Shaun meant. He wanted him to use his Deity ability to predict what would happen between him and Park Anya.
In this way, he could know in advance if Park Anya was sincere in being with him.
To be honest, Jordan was unwilling to do this because this would mean he did not trust the woman he liked.
