Hailey wanted to question Jordan and ask him why he got on his knees for another woman and not her!
She wanted to ask Victoria why she snatched her man away!
Old Mrs. Camden glared at Hailey, expecting better from her.
She ordered, “Call Victoria Clarke. I want to speak to her personally.”
“Yes!”
Herman hurriedly took out his cell phone and dialed Victoria’s number before handing the cell phone to Old Mrs. Camden.
Although Old Mrs. Camden was furious, her tone was very gentle. After all, she was old in her years and had experienced a lot in this life. Such a trivial matter was not enough to make her lose her composure.
Old Mrs. Camden said gently while still seeming domineering and authoritative, “Miss Clarke, I heard that Jordan went to your office and became your bodyguard.”
“Had I known that you had taken a liking to Jordan, I would have given him to you half a year ago.”
“However, yesterday, you said you would stand in solidarity with the Camdens and cut off all means of a livelihood for him. Yet, you went back on your word today. You seem to owe me an explanation, don’t you?”
Victoria said, “Things are not like what you think, but no matter what, I do owe you an apology for failing to fulfill the promise I made to you yesterday. I’m sorry that I failed to keep it.”
Hearing Victoria’s sincere apology, Old Mrs. Camden felt much better.
“Hey, there’s no need to apologize. We’re as close as family. But, since you like that punk, take him under your wing. He’s just a live-in son-in-law. Take it as a gift from the Camdens to you!”
“No, she can’t have him!” Hailey protested with jealousy written all over her face.
Old Mrs. Camden was furious, and she glowered at Hailey before quickly covering the cell phone’s microphone for fear that Victoria would hear Hailey.
When Sylvie Parker saw how furious Old Mrs. Camden was, she hurriedly placed her hand over Hailey’s mouth to stop her from talking.
Old Mrs. Camden continued to talk on the phone smilingly, “I can forget about what happened to Jordan, but Miss Clarke, you promised you would invest 11 million dollars in our project. You’re not going to break your promise again, are you?”
Victoria said, “I’ve spoken to Mr. Steele regarding the investment. He’s very impressed with your proposal, and he likes it very much, but he would like to find out more about this project.”
“What? Mr. Steele read our proposal? He likes it very much too?”
Old Mrs. Camden excitedly repeated Victoria’s words.
The Camdens jumped for joy after hearing her words!
Old Mrs. Camden said, “He wants to find out more? That’s simple. I’ll send Herman to visit Mr. Steele at his office personally to discuss the project with him in person!”
Victoria said, “Okay, I’ll arrange for an appointment then.”
