Victoria actually mistook Jordan, who was disguised as a fortune-teller, for her father Norman.
It was no wonder. Using the voice alteration device, Jordan’s voice was so similar to Norman’s. Coupled with Jordan’s baffling words earlier, who else in the world would treat Victoria like such a treasure?
Norman was the only one.
As for Russell, Victoria knew very well that as the richest man in Houston, he would never do such a thing.
Victoria was a smart woman. She realized that her father must have had his reasons, which was why he refused to acknowledge her. Therefore, she did not run to his room to expose him.
She had waited for 10 whole years. She didn’t mind waiting a little longer.
With tears of happiness in her eyes, Victoria lay on the bed and finally fell asleep.
Ring ring ring…
It was morning. Victoria had just fallen asleep when her phone rang.
Victoria answered the call sleepily. “Who is it?”
Tyler’s voice came from the other end of the line. “Ms. Clarke, this is Tyler Collins. I toasted you at Old Mrs. Camden’s birthday banquet yesterday!”
Victoria nodded. She knew Tyler’s father and had drunk with him a few times.
“Mr. Collins, why are you calling so early?”
Victoria asked.
Tyler said anxiously, “Ms. Clarke, do you still remember the Camdens’ live-in son-in-law, Jordan Steele? Yesterday, we joined forces with the Camdens to make sure he can no longer survive in this city. This kid ran to your building early this morning. I guess he wants to take revenge on you!”
Victoria opened her eyes in surprise and woke up completely.
Jordan?
The young man she met yesterday, the one she fell in love with at first sight?
Victoria recalled what her “Daddy” said yesterday and was amazed.
‘Oh my god, isn’t Daddy a programmer? Did he study fortune-telling for the past 10 years? How can he be so accurate?! Yesterday, Daddy said that Jordan and I would meet again. It is indeed coming true!’
Victoria was delighted. She smiled and replied, “Don’t worry. The building is locked and there are security guards. He won’t be able to come up.”
Tyler said anxiously, “That kid has an access card and might have already entered the building. He might be hiding in your office now. If you go to work, your life will be in danger!”
“What? How did he get our company’s access card?”
Victoria sat up in surprise. The blanket covering her body fell off, revealing her fair shoulders.
Tyler went on to tell Victoria that Jordan had stolen a watch worth $800,000 from the Camdens, and must have spent money to buy the access card so that he could take revenge on Victoria.
Hearing this, Victoria became worried. She called Ashley and asked her to go to the office immediately. Meanwhile, Victoria quickly washed up and changed her clothes.
Before leaving, she knocked on Jordan’s door.
Knock knock!
“Sir, are you awake?”
At this moment, Victoria really wanted to call him Daddy. She had not called anyone that in 10 years.
Jordan knew that Victoria would go to the office early in the morning, so he woke up early as well.
“Yes, I’m up. Please come in,” Jordan said.
Victoria pushed the door open and saw that Jordan was already dressed. He was still wearing his sunglasses and sitting by the bed.
‘You’re already wearing sunglasses so early in the morning. You must not want me to see your face. Daddy, you must be my Daddy!’
Victoria thought to herself. She had been in the business circle for so long and knew how to read people’s expressions. She could tell at a glance that this man was deliberately hiding his face from her.
As for his figure, Jordan and Norman were about the same build.
To be able to give birth to tall daughters like Victoria and Emily, Norman was himself a tall man.
However, after Jordan had been injected with the Mirakuru serum, not only was he taller, but his body was also more buff than ordinary men.
Jordan’s figure was that of a strong athlete.
Norman was a programmer. After he became a CEO, he was still a little thin and not that muscular.
‘Did Daddy work out regularly for the past 10 years?’
Victoria sized up Jordan’s body and wondered.
This was not impossible.
Victoria said, “Sir, you’re really a fortune-teller. I just received a call. The live-in son-in-law I liked yesterday, Jordan, is now in my company building.”
Jordan smiled and stroked his beard. “The art of divination is mysterious and unfathomable. You shouldn’t have doubted it in the first place! You have to remember every word I say to you!”
Victoria smiled. She no longer had the attitude of a domineering businesswoman. Instead, she looked like an obedient daughter.
“To be honest, yesterday, you kept recommending that doctor in the capital, Dr. Gale, to me for some idea implantation. I even suspected that you two were frauds working together.”
Jordan was speechless. “I’ve been indifferent to fame and fortune all my life, and I treat money as dirt. How can you think that of me?! Let me ask you, if you really get together with that young man Jordan, how long do you think you will be together for?”
Victoria shook her head. “I don’t know either. Love in modern society is very fragile. Very few people can hold hands for the rest of their lives. Although I yearn for such love, I can’t guarantee that I can do it.”
Jordan said, “That’s right. Love between young people nowadays is indeed very fragile. They break up easily. Over important matters and small matters alike. I think that since you’ve confirmed that the young man is the love of your life, you should implant the idea in your mind to grow old with him. This is why I recommended Dr. Gale to you. He’s the only person in the US who can do this.”
“Child, I hope you can seriously consider my suggestion! I promise you will be happy because of this!”
Dr. Gale had implanted an idea into Lauren, and it was very successful. Therefore, Jordan wanted him to implant an idea into Victoria so that she could grow old with him.
Once it was successfully implanted, no matter what happened, including what happened to Victoria and that 18-year-old boy, she would no longer be bent on seeking death and would wake up.
Victoria said, “Sir, I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you. Jordan isn’t here to seek refuge with me. I heard that he bought our company’s access card and is currently lurking in our company building. He seems to want to take revenge on me.”
Revenge?
Jordan thought for a moment. It must be that b*stard Tyler spouting nonsense.
Jordan smiled. “Whether it’s to take revenge on you or to establish a good relationship with you, you’ll know after you go to the office.”
Victoria said, “Alright, I’ll go to the office now. Wait for me at home. I’ll come back to accompany you as soon as I’m done. By the way, do you have a phone? What’s your phone number?”
Jordan touched the iPhone 12 and iPhone 18 in his pocket and shook his head. “I don’t have a phone.”
