My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 920

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Victoria finished attending Hailey's grandmother's birthday banquet and walked out of the hotel.

At this moment, Jordan from 2020 and Hailey had already left the party early to go to register their divorce at the City Clerk Office.

Victoria had driven to the venue, but because she had drunk a little wine, she didn't drive back. Instead, she called her secretary, Ashley, to get her a taxi.

Ashley soon arrived in a rented car. She still had the image of a sexy secretary. Her sharp suit and black glasses made men's imaginations run wild.

At the car rental, the staff kept trying to chat up Ashley, hoping to get a date with her. But this woman, whom many ordinary men were infatuated with, instantly paled in comparison to Victoria.

When Ashley and Victoria stood together, no man would give Ashley a second glance. After all, Victoria's aura and looks were completely superior to Ashley's.

Ashley arrived and drove off with Victoria.

As they drove, Ashley asked, "Ms. Clarke, why do you look so pale? Did the Camdens upset you?"

Victoria sat in the front passenger seat and said, "The Camdens need my help. How would they dare to provoke me? It's that young man, the Camdens' live-in son-in-law."

Ashley asked curiously, "Huh? A live-in son-in-law dared to offend you? What did he do to you?"

Victoria said, "Today is really interesting. The Camdens joined forces to destroy that young man's life. I couldn't stand it anymore. I felt that that boy had quite a personality and was quite good-looking, so I helped him out and made him my personal bodyguard."

"Personal bodyguard?" Ashley was a little surprised. "Ms. Clarke, did you read some online novel about personal bodyguards? Moreover, today's banquet was hosted by the Camdens. Yet, you didn't hesitate to offend them, all for a stranger? Have you taken a liking to that young man?"

Victoria chuckled but did not refute.

Jordan was indeed Victoria's type, at least in terms of looks.

"What happened after that? That live-in son-in-law should be grateful to you, right? After all, he's just a freeloader," Ashley said.

Victoria shook her head. "No, he rejected me and... he pulled my ear."

Victoria recalled Jordan's bold move and felt a wave of indignance.

It had been many years since she had been touched by a man.

"Huh? He doesn't know what's good for him! Being Ms. Clarke's personal bodyguard is something that many people want to do."

Ashley was very surprised.

Victoria crossed her arms in frustration. "Jordan is really annoying. He's the first man to reject me since I came to Orlando!"

The first time Victoria and Jordan met, Jordan was being bullied by the Camdens and the other guests. As a stranger, it was not an easy thing for Victoria to go against the hosts and help Jordan. Later on, she said she wanted to boycott Jordan, but she didn't actually mean it. She was just angry at him for rejecting her.

In fact, she hoped that Jordan would come looking for her again one day, that he would come and beg her...

Screech!

"Ooff."

Just as Victoria was thinking about all that, Ashley suddenly braked hard. Victoria was so startled that she tumbled forward and cried out.

An old man had suddenly appeared just as they were passing an intersection. Ashley immediately stepped on the brakes.

The old man instantly fell to the ground.

"Oh no... Ms. Clarke, did I hit someone? Is this old man dead? What should I do?"

Ashley was so frightened that she cried.
