Three hours later.
Orlando, West Lake Hotel.
In the presidential suite, Zara was wearing a lace nightdress. Her long, slender legs were the envy of all women and the object of infatuation for all men.
She paced back and forth in the room. Her legs were sore from walking, but Jordan was still not there.
Ding-dong.
Zara’s phone rang and she immediately picked it up. It was not Jordan, but Park Sang-cheol’s subordinate.
As Park Sang-cheol’s subordinates were monitoring Zara’s every move, they knew that Jordan was not by her side.
“Hello.”
“Why isn’t Jordan here yet?! It’s been hours! I saw you walking up and down in front of the camera. You’re making me dizzy! Can’t you sit down?!” Park Sang-cheol’s subordinate scolded Zara.
Zara was very nervous and scared. “I… I can’t sit still. You want me to kill Jordan, how can I sit still? Please, let me and Jordan go.”
“Shut up!” Park Sang-cheol’s subordinate shouted. “Call Jordan immediately and ask him when he will arrive! Damn it, why is he being so wishy-washy? He’s really trash! If I knew that there’s a beauty like you waiting for me, I would have rushed over!”
Park Sang-cheol’s subordinate had been staring at Zara for so long and he was rather tempted.
After hanging up the call, Zara didn’t dare to call Jordan. Instead, she just sent him a message: ‘Jordan, when are you arriving? I can’t wait.’
Jordan responded quickly: ‘I’m in a taxi now. I’ll be there in 20 minutes.’
At this moment, Jordan and his research staff had just finished developing a sticker that could neutralize the toxicity of lipstick.
The sticker was invisible and tasteless. It could be pasted on the lips without being detected. When it came into contact with the poison on the lipstick, the two chemicals would immediately fuse and the poison would be absorbed and neutralized.
Jordan had already tested it on two human subjects. It was foolproof!
Now, Jordan could face Zara’s red lips!
Knock-knock.
15 minutes later, there was a knock on the door of Zara’s presidential suite. Zara happily walked over to open the door. When she saw that Jordan had appeared, she immediately hugged him in delight.
“Jordan, you’re finally here. You made me wait for so long.”
Jordan slowly pushed Zara away. “Let’s talk inside. What’s the hurry?”
After closing the door, Jordan walked into the presidential suite and couldn’t help sighing.
“Jordan, what’s wrong? Why are you sighing the moment you come in? Don’t you like my clothes? I’ve prepared a lot of outfits. There are nurse and air stewardess uniforms. What do you like? I’ll change now!”
Zara was afraid that she wasn’t charming enough. She had no choice. She was far inferior to Hailey and even Elle!
Jordan sized up Zara. To be honest, she was quite attractive. At the very least, she could seduce more than 90% of the men across the country. If Jordan did not know that her goal was to kill him, he might have been attracted to her.
Jordan smiled. “There’s no need. I’m sighing not because of you, but because you chose this suite. I stayed in it back then.”
Zara was surprised. “Ah, have you stayed at the West Lake Hotel before? With Hailey?”
Jordan shook his head. “No, during my first divorce with Hailey, I didn’t know that your grandmother had someone at the City Clerk Office to stop the proceedings. I thought that we were really divorced. After that, I came here to book a presidential suite. Hailey followed me here that day, but she only stood at the door. I didn’t let her in.”
Thinking back on that day, it was as if it had just happened yesterday. Time passed too quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Jordan now had two children.
Zara said, “Oh, don’t think about the past anymore. Hailey doesn’t know how to cherish you. You should take revenge on her! Jordan, actually, I like you very much too. I’ve liked you since the first time you came to our house…”
Zara was moving closer and closer to Jordan.
Jordan suddenly grabbed Zara’s arm and asked, “Zara, are you sure you want to do this? I hope you can seriously consider it again. Do you really want to do this? Think about what your grandmother has taught you. You still have a chance to stop.”
Actually, Jordan was giving Zara one last chance! Zara’s lips were smeared with lethal lipstick. If she chose to kiss Jordan, it meant that she wanted to kill him.
Zara was Grandaunt Lily’s granddaughter and Jordan did not wish to kill her. However, if Zara chose to harm Jordan, he would have no choice but to do so!
Inside, Zara was also struggling in her heart. She looked at Jordan and almost cried.
Jordan and Zara must have been the strangest couple among all the hotel guests at this moment. They stared at each other with hesitation and internal struggles, as if they were wrangling with death itself.
Zara hesitated for a long time before choosing to kiss Jordan!
Jordan closed his eyes. He wasn’t trying to savor the moment. Jordan had kissed countless peerless beauties. Zara couldn’t compare to any of them.
He closed his eyes because he was thinking to himself: ‘I’m sorry, Grandaunt Lily. I can’t keep your granddaughter alive!”
Jordan had already decided that he would kill Zara!
This was because she was also merciless in her attempt to kill Jordan!
If Jordan had not developed a sticker that could resist the poison, he would have died in less than a minute, just like Sylvie’s lover!
“Urgh…”
Less than 30 seconds later, Jordan pushed Zara away and pretended to be in pain as he fell to the ground.
“Jordan, what… what happened…”
Zara knew that she had poisoned Jordan, but she still asked.
Jordan’s expression was very grim. He took out a box of medicine from his bag and took a pill. He then pointed at Zara. “There’s… there’s poison. Zara, you… you’re trying to kill me…”
Zara’s tears kept streaming down. “I’m sorry, Jordan. I have no choice. I really have no choice!”
As Zara spoke, she knelt in front of Jordan and apologized.
Jordan pretended to be in extreme pain and asked, “Why?”
Zara cried. “It was a South Korean who asked me to do this. They killed Darren’s friend in front of me. They didn’t even let him speak. They were too ruthless. I’m afraid, I’m really afraid. Sobs…
“Jordan, when you meet my grandmother in the afterlife, please don’t tell her that I killed you. Please!”
