Chapter 279: Clarice Howard!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although Jordan was young, he had trained in various places all over the world for years and had been through plenty!

Although the Howards were a wealthy family in DC, Jordan’s current status wasn’t poor either!

He was the CEO of J Corporation and was lauded as the wealthiest person in the country!

Jordan closed the car door and said to Brad, “I am the richest man in the US. I’m afraid your family will have to look up to me when they see me!”

Brad too, got out of the car, closed the door, and guffawed loudly.

“You’re really hilarious. Jordan Steele, your lousy takeout company is only worth a paltry amount of money in the country. Trust you to call yourself the richest man. You’re just enjoying the bootlicking from Ryan Dunn, who’s praising you and sucking up to you. You’re not even on the list of richest people!”

“Besides, even if you are on the list of richest people, we won’t recognize you or even acknowledge you because we don’t ever read such lists or buy any business magazines.”

“My grandfather doesn’t even let me use Twitter and Instagram. Even if I do, it’s only for us to read news, and we’ll never post or share anything.”

“Jordan Steele, you grew up abroad, and you don’t even understand the situation here.”

“It’s always a good thing to keep a low profile. Do you think the people on the Forbes list of richest people are really the richest in the US or the world? Bullshit! My family doesn’t even bother being on such lists. Otherwise, they’d be top on the list for the past few decades!”

Jordan knew quite a bit about the situation in the country, and it was indeed as Brad said.

Not to mention the Howards, even the Steeles could easily become the top on the list of the world’s richest. They simply didn’t bother to compete.

Previously, he had given himself the title of the country’s wealthiest, only to make Hailey jealous.

Jordan said calmly, “It’s even better if they don’t know me.”

Jordan didn’t want to have any dealings with Brad’s parents. He just wanted to meet Lauren and apologize to her.

It would be better if he didn’t get recognized by the rest of the Howards. Jordan liked to keep a low profile anyway.

Hence, Jordan followed Brad in.

As soon as they entered, a servant bowed and greeted with a smile, “You’re here, Mr. Brad.”

“Yes.”

Brad walked quickly towards the villa hall like the wealthy scion he was.

Looking over from afar, he noticed that there were lots of people in the hall.

A very elegant and dignified middle-aged woman was talking to a maid-like girl.

“What? She won’t come out? Chris has especially come here to see her. How can she refuse to even take a look at him? Continue asking her to come out!”

Hearing the voice of the dignified middle-aged woman, Brad stepped into the hall.

“Dad! Mom!”

Brad exclaimed at the two middle-aged people inside.

The middle-aged woman who spoke was Brad’s mother.

On the other hand, Brad’s father was the chubby middle-aged man sitting in the middle.

Apart from the two of them, there was also a man and a woman.

The man seated in the guest’s seat was about 30 years old, and he was tall and muscular. He had a somewhat menacing and austere expression on his average-looking face, which would make one shudder.

His sitting posture was extremely elaborate, and it was actually a standard military sitting posture. Moreover, he kept a straight face and didn’t smile at all.

Jordan was not interested in this man. Instead, the one who caught his attention was the woman!

That woman was about the same age as Jordan, and she was sitting cross-legged on the chair. She was dressed in expensive clothes, and she exuded the aura of a noble lady.

‘Is she Brad’s sister, Lauren?’
