It was a Bentley. Although it was also a luxury car, it was old and not very clean. This was especially the case when compared to Fanny’s white Rolls-Royces, where each of them was as shiny as the brand new ones on
the showroom display.
After the Bentley stopped, an old man alighted.
It was Butler Frank.
“Butler Frank!”
Jordan and Lauren immediately went over when they saw Butler Frank. Stefan also walked over with Chloe.
“Mr. Jordan, welcome home!”
Butler Frank smiled happily as wrinkles appeared on his old face.
Lauren had heard a lot about Butler Frank. Although he was only a butler and Lauren was Jordan’s wife, she did not put on any airs like Hailey did and greeted Butler Frank very respectfully.
“Hello Butler Frank. I’m Jordan’s wife, Lauren.”
Butler Frank hurriedly bowed. “Hello, Mrs. Jordan. Welcome!”
Lauren was thrilled to hear Butler Frank call her Mrs. Jordan and his warm welcome. She had finally come to her husband’s place and could meet his family!
Stefan quickly shook Butler Frank’s hand. “Hello, Mr. Frank. I’m Stefan Howard, Jordan’s father-in-law.”
Butler Frank quickly returned his greeting. “Hello, Mr. Howard.”
Chloe also called out happily, “Hello, Uncle Frank!”
“Hello, little miss Chloe. Mr. Steele Senior will be very happy to see you. Everyone, please get in the car,” Butler Frank said.
While the Howard family was chatting with Butler Frank, Fanny and the other two were chatting in the distance.
Fanny said disdainfully, “Did Lauren’s husband’s family send that car? Why did they send such a car? Isn’t it too shabby?”
Zara smiled. “It’s not bad. It’s a Bentley after all.”
Fanny smiled. “Oh my god, that’s an old Bentley, okay? Do you know how cheap a second-hand Bentley is in England? I suspect that Lauren married a fraud!”
Beatrice quickly reminded her, “Fanny, lower your voice. Don’t say such things in front of Lauren. She likes Jordan a lot.”
“Hmph.” Fanny snorted.
Jordan got Stefan and Chloe into the car first before walking back with Lauren. He planned to bid farewell to her three schoolmates before leaving.
Seeing that Jordan had returned, Fanny plastered on a fake smile. “Yo, Young Master Jordan, so you’re from a rich family. A Bentley was sent to pick you all up. That car is very rare in London.”
Jordan could tell that Fanny was mocking him.
Fanny had brought over a dozen Rolls-Royce cars worth over a million dollars each. Meanwhile, Jordan only had one old Bentley. How could he compare to her?
Jordan explained, “That car is indeed a little old. However, Butler Frank is old himself so he prefers old cars. He cherishes old things so he hasn’t changed his ride.”
Fanny immediately pretended to be surprised. “Ah, the Steeles are indeed amazing. You even have a butler. If the butler is already driving such a good car, won’t your parents’ cars be even better? Oh, right. Young
Master Jordan, where do you live? My husband and I live in South Kensington. We might even be neighbors!”
