You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 82

child. If he knows that you are the daughter of the woman who snatches his father away, what will he think?"

"Miss Nelson, now you know why I object to your relationship with Jordan. It is not because you are a single mother or a divorcee, but because you are the daughter of someone Jordan hates the most. Because of your mother, Jordan has lost his father since he was a Pedro's voice was like a strained foghorn, slow but powerful; every word of his was devastating. "Think it over. If you can be with Jordan without feeling guilty, I won't object to your relationship. But you can't hide the truth. Otherwise, when Jordan learns it..." Irene tried her best to keep herself calm, but tears still welled up her eyes. It was such a huge blow to her. She didn't want to cry in front of outsiders, hence she stood up and bid goodbye to Pedro. Looking at her straightened back, Pedro's heart couldn't help aching for her. "Jordan, I have always been afraid of liking you. It's because I am afraid that I will lose myself again, and I am worried that you will betray me. But now, what reason do I have to like you and accept your love?" Irene muttered silently.

"Sorry, Jordan. I can't accept your love because I don't deserve it! I don't deserve it!"

In fact, the bitterness and pain in her heart at this moment were threatening to engulf her whole. However, only she knew how difficult it was to maintain her steady pace as she marched out of the tea room.

She took her bag quietly and went downstairs; Jordan stood beside a car and beamed at her. Looking at his bright smile, Irene felt more miserable.

She walked toward Jordan step by step, but every step seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. It was a short distance, but it felt like eternity.

Jordan opened the car door for her, and Irene got in the car mutely. He followed her and looked at her with a smile. "Why didn't you pick up my call last night?"

"My phone was out of battery," Irene answered.

"I had a rough night. I couldn't fall asleep all of a sudden. I wanted to talk to someone, but I couldn't get through your number. I ended up having a really bad insomnia. You have to compensate me for not picking up the call!" Irene turned her head and hugged him suddenly. She brought her lips to Jordan's and kissed him. Obviously, Jordan was shocked by her initiative. After a while, he began to respond to her.

Finally, the two of them separated from each other. "If it weren't daytime now, I would have 'eaten' you right now!" Jordan gasped.

Irene looked at his handsome face and felt great pain inwardly. She concealed her own emotions and drawled, "Jordan, I have thought about it. We do not suit each other. Let's break up!"

"What did you say?" Jordan's eyes widened. He almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. Irene had just kissed him, but she told him that she wished to break up with him the next second. Her capriciousness was f*cking believable. "I said, we're not suitable for each other. Let's break up!"

Jordan's face darkened. "Irene, are you joking?"

"I'm not joking. I've thought it over. We're indeed not suitable for each other. It's better to end it now than be hurt in the future."

"Not suitable? Why did you agree to date me in the beginning if we're not? Irene, I'm warning you, I'm not a nobody. Since you get yourself involved with me, don't think about running away!"

"Jordan, let me go!" Irene lowered her head.

"Let you go? Am I a monster? Am I that scary?" Jordan glared at Irene.

"I can't convince myself to accept a man who had countless women. I think you are filthy!" hissed Irene.

"You!" Jordan was gasping. How could Irene say that he was filthy?! How dared she?!

Jordan raised his fist. For a second, Irene thought that he would punch her. She closed her eyes subconsciously, only to hear a bang. When she opened her eyes, she realized Jordan had hit the window with his fist.
