Chapter 47: Hailey’s Reasons

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Hailey pushed Jordan away with all her might before opening the door to leave.

As soon as Hailey opened the door, she was surprised to find that Victoria was standing right outside.

“Miss… Miss Clarke.”

During their previous meeting, Victoria gave Hailey a tight slap on her face.

Although Hailey was highly jealous and resentful towards Victoria, she was now at the office of the company Victoria worked for.

Besides, they would be cooperating very often in the future. Being a member of a prestigious family, Hailey was sensible enough to focus on the bigger picture.

“Miss Camden.”

Victoria nodded at Hailey with a smile.

After a simple greeting, Hailey left very quickly.

 

On the other hand, Jordan was gripping the contract tightly in his hand as if he was trying to rip it apart.

Jordan had always thought that he would no longer care about Hailey since they had already gotten a divorce.

However, when he heard her say she would have a meal with Tyler just now, he still felt rather uncomfortable.

Victoria sought to win Jordan’s heart, whom very few knew was a tycoon, and thus had been trying to use her favorable position as his close subordinate to her advantage.

Since Jordan’s ex-wife had come to see him today, Victoria naturally wanted to know what they had talked about.

When she saw how upset Jordan was, Victoria knew that Jordan must still harbor strong feelings for his ex-wife. She reckoned that it would probably be challenging for her to take advantage and come in between them anytime soon.

It would probably take a long time for her to conquer Jordan’s heart.
