"Ridicule?" Jordan twists his brows disconcertingly, utterly flabbergasted and surprisingly unfazed by the old man's menacing aura, which would have gotten anyone else shuddering and peeing in his pants. "You asked me what I thought about your granddaughter, and I was trying to answer sincerely, but you didn't even let me finish, and now you are claiming I ridiculed her? When and how did I do that?"Greyson glares daggers at him, snapping maliciously, "You still have the cheek to ask me that? Don't you even know the things you spit out from that sharp mouth of yours? To think I thought you were a good lad!" He stomps his foot. "I'm disappointed! So disappointed! This is a lady you claim to be friends with, yet because she is not here, you ridiculed her! So much for a friend!""Hmph," Jordan snorts coldly. "I don't know what you're babbling about but the truth remains that I didn't ridicule her! "As a good friend, the least I could do was say the truth so you would take her in hand and
In the private room... Greyson is glaring at Jordan as if he wants nothing more than to rip him into shreds and feed his carcass to the birds of the air.All his life, he can be confident to say that he has never met someone like Jordan.The lad's courage and ability to twist facts are so phenomenal. Even the devil might not hold a candle to him.Listening to Jordan, he just can't believe he could still be so adamant!Like, the punk ridiculed his granddaughter and right now is making it seem like he did so out of goodwill. How brazen and sly!He clenches his jaw and opens his mouth to snap at Jordan yet again, but is not so fast enough as Jordan beats him to it..."Mr. Kane," he breathes, lifting his gaze to meet Greyson's and fearlessly marrying it, "Looking at your expression, my gut tells me you still want to scold me and insist that I ridiculed Daisy after everything I've just said when you should lower your overbearing ego and accept that you judged my statement rashly and wrongl
"Anything the matter, Mr. Callahan?" Noticing Jordan's abrupt change in expression, Greyson grills, his brows twisted disconcertingly.Jordan sways his gaze to the door, retorting silently, "What I want to tell you is confidential, but there seems to be a pokenoser in your family," with that, he stands and begins walking to the door, his steps so light that not a single sound is made, almost as if he is walking on air.Meanwhile, outside the room, Gavin is leaning against the door, straining to hear the conversation inside. Just as he's about to catch a few juicy tidbits, the door suddenly flies open and he tumbles headfirst into the room, landing in an ungraceful heap on the floor."Mmm..." he croaks, his eyes bulging in alarm the next moment as the realization of what has just happened dawns on him. The jig is up- he has been caught red-handed doing something so immoral! His breath sticks in his throat, catching between a gasp and a cry of disbelief. He can't find the words to spea
"You're a wonder, Mr. Callahan! So exceptional! I doubt there's anyone in your peer as outstanding and smart as you are!" Greyson gushes over Jordan, his voice ringing with unbridled admiration. His face beams with a bright, wide smile as if lit from within. "Your talent and abilities astound me!" he continues, his eyes shining with an unshakeable belief in Jordan's capabilities. "You're an absolute marvel, a true inspiration! Your wisdom is on an entirely different level!"It amazes even an old man like me! If not that it is quite impossible, I would visit you every day to tap from your overflowing wisdom! You are such a rare gem!""You're too kind, Mr. Kane. I'm just a lad, how can my wisdom possibly compare with yours? That is too flattering. After all, I still have much to learn and so many years ahead of me, but I'm grateful for your words, thank you," Jordan retorts with so much humility, smiling appreciatively at him.Once again, everyone is thrown off balance, their eyes squin
"Jordan, do you really need to take an Uber home when I can have my chauffeur drive you?" Daisy asks, pouting her lips and battering her eyebrows at him.The party is ended and Jordan is standing at the gate, waiting for the Uber he ordered a few minutes ago to arrive, but Daisy wouldn't let him wait in peace as she keeps bugging him to let her chauffeur drive him. And with the manner she is going at it, he is so moved to accept so that he can at least get her off his back, but he just can't bring himself to because the aftermath of doing so would be too troublesome for him...Even if he asks the chauffeur to stop a few meters away from his Paradise, the man would still recognize the grand estate as it is one of the top estates in the county.Obviously, seeing such would make him start having wild thoughts and in the end, he would rush to tell Daisy what he saw, which would make her start wondering how he managed to have an abode in that estate. That ride would give him all away. How
As Jordan steps out of the Uber, his gaze falls upon the magnificent building in front of him and he feels a strange mix of emotions as he takes in the familiar sight - a sense of nostalgia, tinged with trepidation. And as he walks toward the building, his mind drifts to how he had poured his heart and soul into building the company and how he had to abandon its running and management in the hands of Arthur to get married to Isabella. Yes, he had secretly helped grow the company to where it is now, but he can't help but feel that if he had been physically available all those years, it could have grown more than it presently is.He had left one of his biggest projects to love and cherish a woman, dedicating all his time to her but in the end, she felt the best thing to do because she has climbed the societal ladder was to divorce him. So much for...Jordan's thought is abruptly cut short as he bumps into someone, nearly sending her tumbling to the ground."Oh, my," he quickly reaches
The lady in front of him is stunning, with all the right things in the right places. Of all the women he has met in his life, he doesn't think he has met one as beautiful as she is. She has deep blue eyes, so deep and beautiful that when he stares into them it feels like he is staring at an ocean.Her lips are pink and pucker as if they are begging him to come get a kiss. How much he wishes to grab that kiss and ravish them.To climax it all, she has perfectly crafted curves, barely hidden by her skirt, and her breasts although properly covered by her blouse appear so big. The blouse can't obviously hide something that big and as such it is easy to notice. She is just so endowed."Wow," his mouth waters and he passes his tongue over his bottom lip, his cock quaking in his pants and his eyes filling with so much lust. He can't help but imagine having her ride him to ecstasy while he feasts on her boobs. His breath hitches, his cock getting hard to the point of pain.'No, it would be
Natasha's eyes sting with tears and her chest tightens, her body shuddering. How can he treat her so inhumanely? Has he no conscience? She met the requirements! That was his own words! How can he berate her now and intend to reject her application all because she doesn't want to go out with him? Tears stream down her cheeks and she pats her chest, feeling so hurt. "Please, Mr. Wright," in an instant, she drops to her knees, "This job is extremely important to me. This company has been my dream company to work for and I have labored so hard to get here just so I could get in. So much also depends on this. Please don't do this to me. I can't go to the bar with you but don't reject my application because of it. Please.""Save me the bullshit, Miss Nicholson," he spits unemotionally and hisses, not sparing her a glance. "If the job was as much important to you as you claim it is, you would have accepted my request. "But since it isn't, you have the gut to reject so spare me the pity
