“Sorry, Jordan, I can’t reveal anything about the family secret to you for now because you haven’t completed all the family’s trials yet,” said Jesse.

Jordan knew that this was the family rule and even their father didn’t mention a word about it to Jordan.

So he only said, “I just want to know if that family secret is more tempting than our family’s dozens of billions of dollars worth of assets?”

With a contemptuous smile on his face, Jesse said, “How can those assets be compared to our family secret!?! Our family’s secret is priceless! It can’t be measured with money!”

Jordan was shocked and he didn’t expect the family to be so impressive! However, he did not want to think about those secrets and other things for the time being. All he wanted was to find Victoria!

Jordan asked, “Jesse, did you find out where Jamie took Victoria?”

Jesse shook his head and said, “The only thing I’m certain about is that they’re both no longer in the US. However, I have sent people to go around searching and once they find them, I might resort to extreme and forceful measures to arrest him.

“If I hurt him, I hope you can understand, Jordan. It’s not that I don’t care about brotherhood but because he’s gone too far.”

Jordan was put on the spot. “Jesse, it’s better not to be too ruthless. I’m afraid something will happen to Victoria if she’s in his hands. Besides, I want to ask him the reason that he did this!”

Jesse nodded and continued, “I now suspect that Jamie and the Howards have joined forces.”

“What? Jamie and the Howards have joined forces?”

Jordan was stunned again.

“Yes.” Jesse walked towards the curtain and said, “Based on my observations over the last few days, I discovered that Martin Howard is very interested in our family’s secret. That old fogie could tell from decades ago that Grandpa is not only rich but also carries lots of secrets. He has always wanted to become our in-laws and use the marriage to find out our family secret.
