The Abandoned Husband Dominates novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89: Pretending To Still Be Married!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In order to create an opportunity for Hailey and Jordan to reconcile their marriage, Diana took advantage of the fact that Lily was dying.

The only uncertainty was whether Jordan would agree or not.

After all, Jordan had already divorced Hailey and was no longer part of the family.

He no longer had anything to do with the Camdens, let alone a distant relative like Grandaunt Lily.

In this regard, Herman and his children didn’t carry much hope.

Hailey said, “Mom, I know you have good intentions. But Hailey, don’t rejoice too soon. Jordan is so ruthless, he had the heart to leave you out in the rain for two hours without feeling anything, and he even tried to set you up with a disabled man. Hah, I doubt he’d put up an act and pretend that you two are still married, just for your sake.”

Hailey bit her lip, thinking to herself that Jordan might indeed be as heartless as before.

However, she mustered up the courage to call Jordan and said with an eager and sad expression.

Jordan was still having a meal with Butler Frank and Greyson at The Times when Hailey suddenly called.

Seeing that Hailey was calling, Jordan wondered, ‘Did she go home to think about it and regret her decision after realizing that Greyson is a good catch?’

In fact, Jordan still somewhat admired Hailey when she opposed Jordan’s decision to matchmake her with Greyson and even splashed water onto his face in exasperation.

That proved that she still had some pride and self-respect and that money wasn’t the only thing she was after.

Hailey was quite an outstanding woman herself, and Jordan would hate to see Hailey degrading herself for the sake of money.

“Hello,” Jordan answered the phone.

“Jordan…”

Hailey said sobbingly, sounding exceedingly sorrowful.

Jordana said, “Stop crying. I didn’t take what happened just now to heart.”

Hailey said, “I’m sorry for splashing water onto your face just now.”

“However, I’m not calling you because of this matter. Grandaunt Lily is about to pass away soon.”

“What? Your aunt…”

Jordan immediately panicked.

Hailey said, “Just now, Grandaunt Lily’s son called us to say that she doesn’t have much longer to live. She might pass tonight or tomorrow.”

In the midst of his meal, Jordan put down his fork and knife and placed a hand on his forehead while letting out a long sigh.

Hailey’s grandfather had died before Jordan finished his three-year trial.

Everyone was disdainful of Jordan.

Grandaunt Lily had never looked down on Jordan and treated him as well as she treated Drew.

Lily was one of the most kind-hearted old ladies Jordan had ever met.

Most importantly, she was also Jordan’s life-saving benefactor!

Just over half a year ago, Jordan hadn’t started working as a deliveryman yet and would be in charge of doing household chores for the Camdens every day.

One day, one of Jordan’s former war comrades came to Orlando to look for him. Jordan then had a meal with him.

That night, Jordan felt very uncomfortable.

They went to the hospital for a body checkup. It was discovered that he had developed a rare illness that the doctor had never seen before. In the end, he had to undergo surgery which cost tens of thousands of dollars.

At that time, the Camdens had all gone on a trip to Switzerland. Jordan tried to call Hailey, but he couldn’t reach her, so he tried to call Sylvie and Benedict to borrow money.
