“The Geng and Rong families?”
Jordan lifted his head, and his dull eyes lit up for the first time in a long while.
‘The Rong family can even develop something as heaven-defying as a space-time revolving door. They might have a way to save Victoria from a simple mental illness!’ Jordan thought to himself.
It was true that he admired Rong Huangde’s abilities very much. He knew that this old fellow was unfathomable. In terms of medicine, the Rong family’s medical team was definitely much stronger than Jordan’s!
The previous Deity had helped the Rong family for decades, helping them develop their technology!
Although Jordan was a Deity, this was not something that he could surpass in a short period of time. Therefore, Jordan hurriedly said to Dr. Tanner, “Alright, contact them and ask them to help.”
“Yes!”
10 hours later, private jets from the Geng and Rong families flew directly to the secret base where Jordan and Victoria were.
At this moment, Jordan was still watching over Victoria in the ward. He held her hand and spoke to her from time to time.
“Oh my god, you’re Madam Geng, right? Thank you for coming!”
Lauren was outside the ward. When she saw Geng Anli, she hurriedly stood up and greeted her respectfully.
Geng Anli naturally knew everything about this beauty in front of her.
With Geng Anli’s arrogance, she usually disdained interacting with common women. However, Lauren was Jordan’s official wife, and Jordan was a Deity. On top of that, Geng Anli had a past relationship with Jordan. As a result, Geng Anli was very friendly and humble toward Lauren.
Taking the initiative, Geng Anli extended her hand and smiled. “You must be Jordan’s wife, Lauren from the Howard family. I’m very happy to see you, the number one beauty in the US.”
Lauren was a little embarrassed. “Thank you for your praise, Madam Geng. I don’t deserve the title of the number one beauty in the US.”
Geng Anli smiled. “You’re indeed the number one beauty in the US. Your husband and I have discussed this matter before. However, to be honest, you’re not in your best condition now. I know that you were imprisoned by Shaun for half a year and lost a lot of weight. Why haven’t you recovered yet? You don’t look too well either.”
Lauren lowered her head. Actually, she had been gradually recovering.
However, Victoria suddenly committed suicide.
For the past month, Jordan had not been able to eat or drink. He only cared about Victoria and stayed by her side. As Victoria’s good friend and Jordan’s wife, how could Lauren be in the mood to take care of herself and eat properly?
Lauren said, “With Victoria and my husband like this, I don’t have much appetite these days.”
However, Geng Anli shook her head. “Ms. Lauren, I know that you have a good relationship with Victoria and you’re very worried about your husband. However, Jordan has been injected with the Mirakuru serum after all. His physique far exceeds that of ordinary people. Even if he doesn’t eat or drink for a few days, nothing will happen to his body.”
“But you’re just an ordinary person. Jordan mentioned to me more than once that when he first met you at the cafe, he was instantly attracted to your beauty. His heart palpitated like crazy. Since your beauty is a big factor in attracting your husband, what reason do you have to not preserve it?”
Hearing this, Lauren was enlightened. “Thank you for your advice, Madam Geng!”
Geng Anli didn’t say anything further and just pushed open the door and walked in.
“Deity Jordan.”
Geng Anli greeted Jordan.
Jordan got up and walked over. “Madam Geng, thank you for bringing your team over.”
Geng Anli said, “Of course. However, in terms of medical skills, our Geng family can’t compare to the Rong family. I think it will depend on the Rong family whether we can save Ms. Victoria this time.”
Jordan asked with some uncertainty, “Has the Rong family… also sent a team?”
“Hahaha, of course we did!”
A familiar voice rang out. “Rong Bailun” strode forward with a group of doctors in white coats.
“Chairman Rong! Welcome to the US!”
Lauren bowed respectfully when she saw “Rong Bailun”.
Lauren didn’t know that Shaun had swapped minds with Rong Bailun as Jordan hadn’t told her.
‘Shaun Handley!’
Jordan was the only one who knew that this fellow was Shaun!
‘So he managed to stay alive.’
When Jordan and Shaun parted ways previously, Rong Huangde had made Shaun stay at Fort Rong.
Shaun had killed Rong Huangde’s son and occupied his body. Jordan thought that Rong Huangde would kill Shaun in a fit of anger.
Walking forward, Shaun said, “Deity Jordan, long time no see. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen after our last meeting. Sigh, what bad luck! But don’t worry, I’ve already brought our family’s most elite medical team over. We’ll do our best to treat your wife!”
Jordan didn’t expose Shaun’s identity. He cupped his fists in respect and said, “Thank you, Chairman Rong and Madam Geng.”
Everyone didn’t waste any more time and started to work on the “death depression”.
During this period, Shaun kept wanting to talk to Jordan in private, but he was rejected.
Jordan’s mind was only filled with Victoria. He didn’t want to talk about anything else. Even if it was about that mysterious space-time revolving door that few people on Earth knew about.
Just like that, the Rong and Geng families’ medical teams, along with the Steele family’s medical team, observed and researched for half a month.
But in the end, they still failed to find a solution for the “death depression”.
One day, on a sunny afternoon.
Jordan was still sitting on the chair, holding Victoria’s hand and watching over her.
Victoria wasn’t dead. Her hands and body temperature were normal, but she just couldn’t wake up.
Knock knock!
Geng Anli and Shaun knocked on the door and entered.
Seeing that Jordan was still looking at Victoria both affectionately combined with a miserable aura, Geng Anli couldn’t help sighing.
“Sigh, Jordan, you’re really a good husband who values relationships. Unfortunately, our medical teams can’t help you. If it’s just a physical wound, no matter how serious it is, we have the confidence to treat it. However, I’m afraid no surgery or medicine can treat this kind of suicidal state of mind.
“Jordan, since I can’t help you, I won’t linger here anymore. I hope you can pull yourself together as soon as possible. I still have to rely on you to improve this world.”
With that, Geng Anli bid farewell to Jordan and Shaun and left.
After Geng Anli left, only Shaun, Jordan, and the unconscious Victoria were left in the room.
“You should leave too.”
Shaun was about to approach Jordan when he asked him to leave.
Shaun didn’t do so. “Jordan, don’t chase me away. I’ve been wanting to talk to you in private for the past few days. Now that I finally have the chance, I have something very important to discuss with you!”
