Jordan and Hailey were from two different worlds. If not for the training mission arranged by his family, the two of them would never have been together.

 

Rowan understood Jordan’s feelings. “Alright, I agree. I’ll tell Jesse later.”

 

“Thank you, Dad,” Jordan said.

Rowan nodded. “Go ahead.”

 

Jordan continued. “Logically speaking, the Steele family head position should be passed down from one generation to the next.
