Jordan proudly waved the phone in his hand. "Steven is the future father-in-law of Edric. I had been worrying that I don't have leverage against Steven. Who would know that he would deliver himself to me? I recorded everything he said to you before. Now I'm waiting to see him yielding to me."
"Jordan, how can you be so despicable?" Irene was so angry that she wanted to slap him in the face. Anyone who thought Jordan was just a playboy certainly underestimated his ability to take advantage of people. "You're protecting him?" Jordan was a little annoyed, "He is old enough to be your dad. And he is married. What's so good about him?"
"We're not the kind of relationship you've imagined us to have."
"It's not that kind of relationship? Then what is it?" Jordan asked. "It's a long story. I'll tell you in the future."
"No! I'll report him tomorrow if you don't tell me now." Jordan was not vague about his intention. His heart was burning with fury when he saw

Margaret never expected Irene to visit a luxurious restaurant like this, so she couldn't help but give her an extra look. Irene had practically nothing to her name when she left Edric Myers back then. She even took back the wedding ring that she had given to Edric, and it wasn't long before the ring turned up in a pawn shop. One could easily imagine how downtrodden she was to go after the mere few hundred dollars that the ring could fetch. Margaret was previously involved in a car accident with Irene and had seen how shabby, and old-fashioned Irene's clothes were. She could tell that Irene was obviously having a rough time and had looked upon her with great disdain. "Weren't you so arrogant back then? Did you finally learn how tough the world could be after leaving the Myers Family?" In Margaret's mind, Irene was now the embodiment of destitution, and thus, so she was rather taken aback by Irene's current appearance. Irene seemed completely different from before. Alt

However, his cheerful mood suddenly disappeared after he learned about Irene's identity. Instead, he locked himself at home every day. David felt very strange about Jordan's change. 'Mr. Reed had changed a lot recently and stopped going to the nightclub'. At first, David thought Jordan just wanted to have a rest. But after being like this for several days, David realized that something he didn't know must have happened.

Irene was also looking forward to this man at first. However, she was dumbfounded when she heard the host announced Jordan's name. Why did this guy come to the show as well? Most importantly, she had always considered him a good-for-nothing rich boy and didn't know anything the host just said about him. While Irene was thinking, Jordan appeared on the stage in a casual outfit. His handsome look attracted everyone's attention as soon as he came to the stage. Irene heard the fellow female guests on both sides exclaiming, "He is tall and handsome and rich! He is a real golden bachelor!" 'Golden bachelor? More like a womanizer.' Irene secretly scoffed at the women. 'I don't think you would be so amazed if you knew all of his dirty laundries!' While she was thinking, Jordan sat down in the seat. Irene was more familiar with his impish look in the office and his lecherous eyes in nightclubs. She wasn't used to it when he suddenly sat upright with all seriousness in front o

Jordan's grandfather soon heard about his son going on a blind date show to pursue a divorced single mother. He called Jordan from abroad, “Kid, haven't you gone too far recently?" "You even care about this kind of thing now? Don't you have too much free time?" Jordan retorted. "Don't dip your pen in the company ink. You need to remember that!" Jordan's grandfather snorted. "That's only because their ink is not good enough!" Jordan refuted. "So this is for real?" The old man detected the undertone of Jordan's reply. “I'm warning you. My bottom line is that might be able to accept a woman you love who doesn't have a similar background. But I won't even open a discussion with you if she is a divorced single mother!" "What if the child is mine?" Jordan said casually. "The child is yours?" Jordan's grandfather was stunned. His grandson was an infamous womanizer who might actually be the child's father. "If it was really your son, I may allow it." Jordan laughed and said,

Jordan received the news right away that Irene was being attacked online. He immediately asked the public relations team to delete the nasty posts and freeze the trolls' accounts. However, the attack still made a huge impact. People demanded a direct answer from Irene. David suggested that Irene could offer an explanation. But Jordan shook his head and said even he couldn't stand this kind of vicious smear, let alone a woman like Irene. "It's better to keep Irene out of this and deal with it on our own for now." Jordan called Kinsey, who certainly knew about these comments as well. She was having a meeting with the public relations team of the TV station, discussing how to deal with the aftermath. During her call with Jordan, she was so indignant that she told him how Irene was abused by a ruthless mother-in-law, how her husband had an affair and impregnated his mistress, and how she was kicked out of the house with nothing. Jordan was astonished since he never dream

"I'm telling the truth! Irene, if you had a little more trust in me, will it be like this? Let me tell you, you weren't innocent in this entire thing, nor was I innocent. Lily was the most innocent one. She suffered everything that she didn't deserve to suffer!" Upon hearing Edric commenting on Lily in such a manner, Irene was enraged. If Lily could be regarded as innocent, then everyone in the world should be innocent. She clearly knew that Edric was her man, but she still rushed forward and got pregnant. Like her mother, she was the most despicable woman in the world. Edric defending a bitch also reflected how tormented he was. He probably loved Lily very dearly! She felt a little heartache. She had promised not to get angry or sad, but she really couldn't bear it. "Myers, did you come to me just to defend that mistress? You seem to have found the wrong person, didn't you? was I just telling the truth. If you have the ability, then try to shut the wide-reac

That night, Lily sat alone on the bed in her bedroom until dawn. When she heard her mother sending her father out at dawn, she opened the door and went upstairs. Upon seeing the dark circles under her daughter's eyes, Deborah felt a little baffled. "Did you lose sleep?" "Mom, I have something to tell you." After glancing at Maisy, who was cleaning up the living room, Lily took her mother's hand and went upstairs. She told Deborah about how Edric stayed with Irene last night. The expression on Deborah's face suddenly became grave. She knew clearly how good the relationship between Irene and Edric was, as well as why they separated. If they talked things through and rekindled their romance, things would be hopeless for Lily. This matter must be taken good care of, and they must be prevented from getting back together. Lily became anxious when she saw that her mother was deep in thought. "Mom, why don't we tell Aunt Margaret about this? She hates Irene so much t

After Jordan left, Thomas cleaned up the mess. Since Irene's feet were injured that she couldn't do a favor, she laid on the reclining chair as she surfed the Internet. Because of Edric's aggressive questioning last night, she opened the TV station's blind date program's website to see what had happened. Irene was extremely shocked. Looking at those harshly condemning posts and people who threatened to reveal her ex-husband and evil mother-in-law, Irene got a headache. Things seemed to be developing in an unknown direction. This wasn't what she wanted to see. She called Kinsey and asked, "Kinsey, how do I make these public outcries disappear?" "I was just about to call you." Kinsey replied, "It's true that we didn't expect things to turn out like this. Now, it's not just about people wanting to reveal your ex-husband and your mother-in-law, but a series of posts doubting your authenticity also appeared this afternoon. People who sent the posts believe that yo
