“Wife of my boss?”
Those words baffled Jordan.
“Who’s the future wife of my boss?” Jordan asked.
Herman shook his head and said, “You’re so thick headed. You’re now an employee of Ace Corporation, aren’t you? That makes Mr. Steele your boss, and his future wife is your former cousin-in-law, who’s also my daughter, Elle!”
“My family and I intend to let Elle marry Mr. Steele so that we can have a marriage alliance with the Ace Corporation. If things work out between them, you’ll be somewhat associated with us again. Haha, you’re really fated with the Camdens.”
Jordan looked at Elle in surprise and asked, “Elle, are you that confident that Mr. Steele will take a liking to you?”
It had only been a few days since Jordan had escaped from the clutches of the Camdens by divorcing Hailey, and now, Elle had set her sights on him!
‘What have I done to deserve to be pestered endlessly by the Camdens?’
Elle humphed coldly and said, “There’s no man in this world who won’t be attracted to me! I’ve always been chaste and never had a boyfriend before. As long as I make the first move, Mr. Steele will definitely fall in love with me!”
“Also, I’ve always suspected that Mr. Steele is the person who sent us the 1 million dollar bracelet on the day of Grandma’s birthday banquet! I plan to investigate and find out more about this. Maybe Mr. Steele has been a fan of mine for a long time!”
Jordan smiled as he didn’t expect his former cousin-in-law to be so confident in herself.
Although, he reflected on it carefully and realized that it made sense for her to be that narcissistic. She had numerous fans on social media and received romantic messages from at least a thousand men every day. Any woman would be conceited if they were in her shoes.
Hearing that Elle had mentioned the matter of the birthday gift again, Jordan said, “You don’t have to investigate anymore. That bracelet is indeed a gift from Mr. Steele.”
“Ah!”
Hearing Jordan’s words, Elle leaped up with excitement and grabbed Jordan’s clothing.
She asked excitedly, “Is that true? Is that true? Is it really a gift from Mr. Steele? I knew it. My intuition was right! Dad, did you hear that? Mr. Steele is really fond of me!”
Herman was too elated for words.
‘The president of Ace Corporation has given such a hefty gift to the Camdens. He obviously did it to impress Elle!’
Herman said joyfully, “I really didn’t expect that the president of Ace Corporation would be my future son-in-law! I must tell my mother about this when I get home. She’d definitely be over the moon!”
Jordan looked at Herman and humphed in disdain.
‘The president of Ace Corporation was married to a Camden for three years, but none of you have ever been good to him!’
‘You want me to marry a Camden again? You must be dreaming!’
Eager to meet Mr. Steele, Elle grabbed Jordan’s clothes tightly and asked, “Where is Mr. Steele now? I want to see him.”
Jordan answered, “He’s having a chat with some clients in the meeting room.”
Given how spacious the Ace Corporation was, it wasn’t strange for there to be more than one meeting room.
Hence, Elle didn’t dwell on it further and instead asked, “Why is he taking so long? Are the clients challenging to deal with?”
Jordan nodded and said, “Yes, the clients are a man and his daughter. The man is a snob while his daughter is a pretty girl dressed to the nines and is now seducing Mr. Steele. I doubt he’d be able to excuse himself soon.”
Elle was enraged after hearing his words. “What a cheap woman! How dare she be so shameless in the presence of Mr. Steele’s company!?! It’s no wonder Mr. Steele has been keeping us waiting for such a long time. Which room are they in? I’m going to go give that bitch a tight slap now!”
Herman hurriedly pulled Elle back to stop her. “Don’t be impulsive! You can’t leave a bad impression on Mr. Steele! We’d better stay here and wait a little longer.”
Jordan shot them a disdainful glance and left without saying anything.
