1271 Golden Mutant? Victoria?
Hearing Randall’s words, Mike Baylor immediately became excited. “Who?”
“Victoria!”
Randall continued, “Victoria is a purple mutant, and she’s undoubtedly a very ambitious woman. If she has the chance to become a golden mutant, she’ll do anything.
“Jordan and Victoria have a very deep relationship. The two of them have been in love for many years. Although they’ve broken up now, I can tell that their feelings for each other have not changed, especially since Jordan owes Victoria a lot. If Victoria comes forward to persuade Jordan, perhaps Jordan will agree! However, in that case, the purple mutant candidate for the golden mutant can only be Victoria.”
Randall was worried that Mike Baylor already had other purple mutant candidates.
Mike Baylor waved his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. I don’t care who becomes the next golden mutant. I just want to gather five as soon as possible. Yes, you’re right. Victoria is a purple mutant and Jordan’s old lover. Jordan seems to be a very stubborn person when it comes to relationships. Men can’t convince him, but perhaps women can… Alright, go and do this. Talk to that pretty woman of yours and ask her to persuade Jordan to see if it can work.”
However, this time, Randall was not in a hurry to accept his master’s order.
Randall thought for a bit and said, “Master, why don’t you go find Victoria yourself?”
Mike Baylor was stunned. This was the first time Randall had disobeyed his order. “What? You’re unwilling to go?”
Randall said, “Of course I wouldn’t dare to disobey Master’s orders. However, since Victoria is also part of Master’s grand plan and might become a noble golden mutant in the future, I’m not suitable to see her again.
“Master, this woman, Victoria, is the best among the women in our country. Not only is she beautiful and elegant, but she’s also like a famous tea. The more one tastes it, the more flavorful it is. People want to have it even after getting it once. When Victoria becomes a golden mutant, you will be the only one qualified to have such a noble woman.”
Randall lowered his head and did not look directly at Mike Baylor. His words clearly meant that he wanted to offer Victoria to Mike Baylor.
Mike Baylor smiled. He naturally understood what Randall was implying. “Victoria is your wife, and I am your master. It’s not good to steal someone’s love, right? If the Moon Maiden and the big-eared monk find out, I don’t know what they would say about me.”
Randall quickly said, “No, no, no. Victoria has never been my wife. She only loves Jordan and has only been with him. My wedding with Victoria was ruined by Jordan. It was not acknowledged at all. I’ve always had a low-level relationship with her. The next time I see Moon Maiden and Master Jiumo, I’ll take the initiative to explain this to them.”
Randall knew that Mike Baylor still cared about his reputation and did not want Mike Baylor to have any worries.
Mike Baylor said, “Victoria is not your wife, but Jordan’s ex-wife. Jordan and I are both golden mutants and part of the master plan. We’re like teammates. It’s not good for me to look for his ex-wife like this, right?”
It could be seen that although Mike Baylor was not afraid of Jordan, he was afraid of rumors. It was apparent that he cared very much about legitimacy and reputation.
Randall said, “Master, I forgot to tell you that Victoria was expelled from the Mutant Tribe by Jordan earlier. When she left the Immortal Lake, she took your winged bird, Irene! This bad woman stole your treasure. It’s reasonable for you to ask her for it back!”
Mike Baylor seemed to be nervous. “What? Irene was taken away by Victoria? Damn it, I told you to take good care of it. Irene is a gift I prepared for the Goddess of Immortal Lake. If anything happens to it, I won’t let you off!”
Randall was scared on the spot. No wonder Mike Baylor spent so much effort to tame an animal that only had looks but no combat power. It turned out that it was dedicated to the future Goddess of the Immortal Lake.
Randall immediately knelt and apologized, “I’m sorry, Master! I… I didn’t expect Victoria to be so shameless. She cut ties with me and still took the gift I gave her. Sigh, women are like this. Even if they break up, they won’t return what a man gave them. Please forgive me.”
Mike Baylor coldly snorted and stood up. He looked into the distance with a faint smile on his face. “It seems like I really have to personally find this woman, Victoria. Victoria, do you have the honor of becoming the next golden mutant?”
…
The capital.
After Jordan returned to the capital, he came home to reunite with Lauren.
Seeing that Jordan was exhausted and covered in injuries, Lauren was very worried.
After resting for a few hours, Jordan’s stamina and complexion finally recovered a little.
Jordan hugged Lauren on the sofa and kissed her forehead. “Honey, I won’t leave this time. I’ll stay at home with you until our baby is born, okay?”
Jordan knew that Lauren had been nervous and worried recently, so he decided to accompany her until she gave birth.
Lauren burrowed her head into Jordan’s arms and came out a minute later. “Hubby, I feel so warm being hugged by you like this. It’s as if you’ve healed a hundred years of my trauma.”
Jordan did not expect Lauren to give him such a high evaluation. He said gently, “If you like it, I’ll hug you tightly every day. Unfortunately, you’re pregnant now. When you give birth to our second son, I can hug you even tighter.”
Lauren asked Jordan, “Did something happen recently?”
Jordan told Lauren about the Moon Maiden, Mike Baylor, Jiumo Kasyapa, and the others.
When Lauren heard this, she quickly said, “Hubby, don’t believe them. What awakening the Goddess of the Immortal Lake? I think it’s a story made up to cheat you of your golden bloodline. You can’t give up your golden bloodline.”
Lauren looked worried.
Jordan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Lauren. I’m not stupid. Why would I believe them? However, they’re too strong. I can’t be too ruthless for the time being. I’ll defeat them one by one when I’m stronger!”
Lauren believed in Jordan’s strength. Jordan had never lost to anyone since the Eight Great Families.
“How are you and Victoria…?”
Jordan shook his head. “I’m completely done with her. I chased her out of the Mutant Tribe. She said that I’ve let her down and even complained that she was the one who was captured by Shaun’s wife instead of you. Sigh, I didn’t expect us to end up like this. We can’t even be friends anymore.”
Taking Jordan’s hand, Lauren said, “Victoria is actually quite pitiful. If she hadn’t been captured by Shaun’s wife back then and that happened, perhaps everything would be different now. Next time you see her, don’t be angry anymore, okay? Even if you can’t be lovers, you shouldn’t be enemies.”
Jordan lifted his head and looked at the chandelier in the living room. He sighed and said, “I’m afraid we won’t have the chance to meet again.”
