Chapter 53

Jordan and Irene turned around. Wearing a navy suit without a tie, Edric was standing at the entrance with his arms crossed. Edric had been holding grudges against Jordan.

Irene there, he knew what this womanizer was trying to do.

He was already gnashing his teeth when he thought about how Jordan used Irene to seduce Steven to win the construction bid. He asked John to keep an eye on the Reed Family. When he heard that Jordan book the restaurant, prepared flowers and balloons, and took Irene was his woman. How could he let others covet her? Edric drove here immediately.

Jordan was more than annoyed. He booked the entire restaurant which should be closed for business. How did Edric suddenly appear?

"I'm sorry, Mr.Reed!" Edric ignored Jordan's expression, strode over, and sat down next to Irene. "I'm particularly fond of this restaurant and came here for dinner. I was surprised that it was not open, but I came in since I heard it's you who reserved it. We are not strangers to each other. You don't mind me

eating here, do you?"

Bullsh*t! Jordan was so mad that he wanted to smash Edric's head. "Is he blind? Can't he see what I'm doing here?"

Edric looked around with a smile. "Roses, balloons, and candlelight dinner! Tsk tsk! So beautiful and romantic. Mr. Reed, I thought that you're not supposed to shit where you eat. Did you take a fancy to some woman and bring Miss Nelson here to practice?" "Watch your tongue, Mr. Myers!" Jordan finally figured out that Myers was here to stir up trouble.

"Don't be shy. We are friends!" Edric was still smiling. "Miss Nelson hasn't worked for you for a long time, right?"

"How did you know, Mr. Myers?" Irene put on a fake smile. She wondered what Edric came here for.

"Mr. Reed loves romance, especially pursuing women in a romantic way. I remember that Mr. Reed once did an earth-shattering thing a few years ago. Miss Nelson, do you know that?"

"Edric Myers!" Jordan's face changed. He bellowed Edric's full name in a warning tone.

"Mr. Reed, what are you nervous about?" Edric said with a faint smile and icy gaze. However, Irene was curious about the big thing Edric mentioned. "What did Mr. Reed do?"

"Miss Nelson, do you want to hear about that?" Edric smiled and said, "Let's talk while eating!"

He clapped his hands. The waiters came in and served the food. Edric didn't care about Jordan's gloomy face. He snatched Jordan's silverware and started to wolf down the food. "It's delicious. I'm starving. Why are you not eating, Mr. Reed?"

Jordan couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed Edric's collar and punched him in the face. Edric had long been prepared for Jordan's attack and reached out to defend himself while ridiculing him at the same time, "Mr. Reed, what are you doing? Everyone knows how you confessed your love to Coco, the superstar in the villa in the Maldives. I only mentioned it casually. Why are you so angry?"

"B*stard!" Jordan punched him again, and Edric dodged sideways. "Mr. Reed had a deep affection for Miss Coco, and his profession caused a sensation. Everyone thought they were a perfect couple until Mr. Reed dumped Miss Coco for a model. Poor Miss Coco claimed suicide for that. This was a bombshell at that time!"

"Edric, I'm gonna beat you to death today!" Jordan knew that nothing good would come from tonight. He pounced on Edric and tangled with him. Watching them fight, Irene was anxious but couldn't help.

The fierce brawl didn't stop until they were both injured and exhausted. Jordan's face was beaten black and blue, and Edric was bleeding from his mouth. Irene went forward to help Jordan up. "Mr. Reed, are you okay?"

"I'm alright!" Jordan stared at Edric with menace. "Myers, I won't let this slide. You just wait and see!"
