A Billionaire After Divorce KNEELING AND APOLOGIZING
"Real men know their capabilities. They don't see the need to be blowing their trumpet. Mr. Martinez is a real man. He could even admit that if it was years ago he wouldn't be able to face Mr. Moore. "That goes on to show his maturity," Avery comments, staring at Brian with deep admiration before turning to Jordan and snapping, "You should learn from Mr. Martinez! Your character is so infuriating.""A piece of advice, Jordan," Isabella also chimes in. "Learn to accept who are you at every point in time and stop saying things you can't do. Look at me, I could accept that we can't stand against Richard. "This is how real people act. We have no reason to fake. And that is why even though we fall, we rise again.""You believe I'm faking, but does that mean I am?" Jordan rolls his eyes. "What if that young man you are choosing to believe is the one faking?""Don't dare insult Brian!" Isabella snarls. "Brian has no obligation to me or my family and is only helping us out of his goodwill.

She hisses.Jordan shakes his head, not bothering to say anything else. It is clear that no matter what he says, Isabella will never believe him.Seeing this, Richard is shocked. It appears these people don't know Jordan's identity. How can the person who could make Arthur call him and have him apologize as per his request be a mere loser?He glances at the supposed man they think brought him here, his anger shooting up. He doesn't even know this person, how then can he get him to apologize?

"That young man really gave you a hell of a beating," Mr. Cole cackles. "I do need to see what you look like now. Hahaha.""Mr. Cole!" Richard groans, his frown deepening. "I'm in pain, and you're making fun of me?""Hmph! Don't be such a baby!" Mr. Cole scoffs. "The deed is done, and you have to live with it. But you're such a fool," he scolds. "You decided to assault a girl like the daughter of the Cadens and you took with you a few weaklings. "Didn't you know there were going to be casualties? Or did you think she had no connections and no one would come for her?""The motel is very discreet, Mr. Cole. Unless you're taken there, you wouldn't even know such a place exists in East Veridora. It's where I've carried out many of my operations, and nothing had ever gone awry. I grew complacent, believing that nothing could go wrong, which is why I was so relaxed. How could I have imagined that this young man would track me down within thirty minutes?""You spent thirty minutes with her a
A Billionaire After Divorce THE COLLISION
It's morning, Jordan tosses a few dollar bills to the Uber driver as he pulls over in front of the company and alights, shutting the door behind him. He starts walking into the company, but suddenly, there's a screeching noise, and then a collision occurs."You, foolish, driver, are you so drunk that you couldn't see our car?!" Almost immediately, a young woman clad in luxurious attire drops from one of the cars, and rushes over to the other car, hitting on the glass of the driver and barking.She's still at this when the driver's door of the car she came out from, swings open, and a young lady, who appears to be of the same age as Isabella, descends and without much exchange, joins her in verbally abusing and berating the driver. But no matter how much they shout and yell, the driver of the car doesn't open his glass, let alone open the door. Guess he is well aware that with the way they are going, if he alights, they might actually jump on him and scratch him to death with their lo
A Billionaire After Divorce AREN'T YOU BEING TOO VICIOUS?
"It's just a superficial wound," the taxi driver fibs, unable to bring himself to admit the severity of his injury. Natasha is already worried seeing he is injured. He can't bear to tell her that the injury is actually so deep– too deep that the mere sight of it frightens him. His car interior is stained with his blood, mingled with the alcohol he used to disinfect it."Hmph, who knows if there's even an injury there, or if you're just pretending to be injured? If you're really injured, where are the blood stains? It seems like you're just trying to gain our sympathy!"Anyways, I can't entertain any of you. You damaged my bumper, and you have to compensate me. My car is a Rolls-Royce Dawn worth $500,000, something neither of you can obviously make in a lifetime. I could demand $200,000 for my bumper, but I'll be generous and settle for $100,000. So, which one of you is going to pay up?""You must be high on drugs," Natasha hisses disdainfully. Ah! She hasn't seen someone like Layla

"I just hit my head, but I'm fine," seeing this Natasha quickly assures him, her face flushing a deep shade of red, and her stomach fluttering. Jordan's gaze does to her things she has no words to describe.After confirming that Natasha is truly fine just as she said she is, Jordan turns his attention to the taxi driver. "Sir, are you alright?""Just a superficial wound, but yes, I'm alright," the driver replies, smiling slightly."You, who are you? And what did you mean by what you said to me?" Not being able to tolerate Jordan's actions anymore as she finds them irksome, Layla asks sharply."You don't need to concern yourself with who I am," Jordan re
A Billionaire After Divorce NOT EASY TO MANIPULATE
There is total silence for a while before Layla replies surprisingly calmly, "You indeed can use your fists and feet to get your words to stand. I have to admit that you are quite talented. Something rather unusual, as I had not expected to find such an expert in East Veridora."But then," her expression suddenly turns smug as she sneers, "Don't think you can use those for everyone! I'm a member of the Caden family of Opulence Heights! You can't dare lay your hands on...,"SLAP!Layla is yet to finish speaking when an abrupt slap sends her tumbling to the floor."How dare you slap my niece?

The young man in front of them is terrifying and they are acutely aware he would never let them go until he had accomplished his goals. So what's the point of trying?With an air of resignation, Layla audibly sucks her teeth, and stands from the ground, brushing the dirt off her clothes and shooting Jordan a glare as she asks coldly, "What is it that you want to say? We're listening!" If her eyes were a pistol, Jordan would have definitely been shot dead on the spot for reducing her to this state and daring to lay hands on her precious cheek, a cheek that had only known gentle caresses throughout her life.A sinister smile tugs at Jordan's lips at Layla's expression. But he pays little heed to it as he states coolly, "My request is quite simple and something I've said before. If you want to leav

MY SON
Henry's face darkens. He is the young master of the Maguires, how can he get on his knees and apologize to Jordan?Such an act would not only disappoint his family but also jeopardize his position as the heir apparent. His pride and ego would also be crushed and he might never be able to raise his head high again."You don't want to do it?""You're being unfairly unfair to me. When Isabella apologized to you, you didn't ask her to get on her knees. Why are you asking me to do that? What are you trying to achieve?""Achieve? Hmph!" Jordan snorts. "I choose how I want anyone to apologize to me. It's late, and I need to leave. Are you apologizing or not?""I can only apologize to you while standing; I'll never kneel to you," Henry grits his teeth."What if I insist?" A menacing aura suddenly bursts out of Jordan, and he grabs Henry's shoulder, applying force."Ah!" Henry cries out, his face distorting. "What are you doing?!" he barks."Kneel!" Jordan bellows, applying more force.THUD!J

GET ON YOUR KNEES
Seeing this, Natasha turns pale. From Jordan's reaction, it's obvious he and this person are not on good terms. This leaves her wondering how that could be when the person gifted him such a unique card.Perhaps he did before whatever happened between them happened. She can't help feeling bad for asking the question."I'm sorry," she whispers."It's fine," Jordan offers her a small smile. "You did nothing. Let's just continue eating."Back at the hall...Somehow Henry and Isabella has managed to consume a quarter of the order. For an order that took three tables, that in itself is a commendable feat. At this moment, Isabella is sitting on the floor, drenched in sweat.Though there's AC in the room, it's as if nothing is touching her. Her naturally flat tummy appears to have broken its record today as it is now protruding. Beside Isabella, Henry is in a similar state, just that he is gasping so much, almost as if he can't breathe.For the first time, he believes the adage that says wha

I BROKE A BANK
"What? Why? Jordan paid all the bills so why am I not allowed to leave?" Isabella asks, staring at the burly men in confusion."Our general manager instructed us not to let any of you leave until the food and wine on the round table are cleared.""What?" Isabella's jaw drops. "What does he mean by that? How can only two of us finish that quantity of food and wine?""We don't know, Miss, but that is the instruction. Except the food and wines are cleared, you can only remain here.""How ridiculous!" Henry stands and bellows. "I'm the young master of the Maguires, will you two really stop me from leaving?""We only follow instructions, sir. It doesn't matter who you are, so yes.""Fine, wait until I send for my family guards!" Henry glares at them and reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone.However, before he can do anything with it, the phone is swiftly snatched from him."I'm sorry, sir. But that is not allowed. You can only start eating now or remain here even after the resta

NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE
Henry and Isabella had devised a plan to embarrass Jordan, hoping he would struggle to pay the bills and end up washing plates for a month.

WHAT?!
"What is this?" As the waitress accepts the card from Jordan and stares down at it, she asks, her brows furrowed in confusion."Hahaha, Jordan, did you pick up a play card on the floor? When did debit start being gold in color?" Henry jeers, laughing mockingly at him."That you don't know the card, is that what makes it a play card that I picked on the floor?" Jordan scoffs. "Anyways, your reaction is well expected, I would have been even surprised if any of you knew the card because the card is only one in the entire country, specially made for me.""Hah, what is that? Isn't he exaggerating too much?" A diner frowns. "He is just a pauper; how could he have a card that is only one in the country and is specially made for him? In fact, when has it ever been heard that a card was specially made for someone? Even the King of Zephyria might not have such card, who is he to?""He must be playing games with us all! Hah, he has no money and he made such a scene. How infuriating.""Well, I'm

GOLD CARD
"Why will I?" Jordan retorts, rolling his eyes. "Please order away! Don't hold back!""Jordan," Natasha, not being able to help it, tugs at his shirt. "They are obviously plotting against you, how can you still ask her to order after Henry has ordered that much? Do you really have the money to pay?"Jordan smiles. "I wasn't joking when I said I could buy this whole restaurant, let alone a few drinks and meals. What are you waiting for? Order yours as well. Also add mine.""Hahaha, Jordan, you seem to have hit the jackpot. Even your character is like one a wealthy man. In that case, I won't be polite neither will I hold back." Isabella turns to the waiter who is still waiting. "I will have this, this, this, this..." Unlike Henry who only placed order for approximately twelve meals and wines, Isabella takes hers up a notch, ordering 20 meals and 20 wines, the meals in the price range of five hundred thousand and the wines in the price range of one million."Ah!" Natasha slams her hand

PLOTTING AGAINST HIM
Two days ago or thereabout, Isabella met with Henry Maguire who urged her to invest in Starwood Apparels. However, Jordan came out of nowhere to tell her that doing so would be the greatest mistake she would ever make. He even claimed that the company would soon be destroyed. He had been so confident in his words that she started doubting her decision. If not for Henry that urged to trust him even just that once, that was how she would have been deceived and lost out on a rare opportunity to rise her family back to glory.Now, when Henry asked Jordan what he could say considering how things just turned out, she had expected him to at least be humble and sane enough to apologize for spilling the trash he spilled the last time.Instead of doing that, he began spilling another trash and acting as if he was one celestial god. She is so infuriated and can't help but wonder how it could be possible that they were once married. At this moment, she feels divorcing him has to be the best dec

SCULPTED PALATE
"Let's sit here," finding a table close to the window, Jordan says and draws out a chair, gesturing like a perfect gentleman,"Please sit, My Lady."Natasha rolls her eyes and mouths a soft "thank you" before taking her seat."You are always welcome, My Lady," Jordan smiles and walks over to the other side, also taking his seat."Welcome to Sculpted Palate, one of the best restaurants in East Veridora, dear prestigious customers. "Here, we serve all kinds of sumptuous and luxurious meals. Here are our menus for your selections. The price of each meal is attached to it," almost immediately, a beautiful waitress approaches Jordan and Natasha and says with a charming smile.Jordan doesn't bother to accept a menu from the waitress. He says indifferently, "I'll have anything the lady picks."Natasha feels her cheeks reddening at that statement. She quickly takes a menu from the waitress and uses it to cover her face. Simultaneously, she glances over the pages.The next second, a frown res

LET'S GO IN
"Mr. Callahan, have you found what it is you forgot? What was it though?" As they pass the receptionist's desk, the receptionist, catching a glimpse of Jordan, lifts her gaze and asks."Yes, I have, and it is...," Jordan pauses, a smile tugging at his lips as he glances down at Natasha Natasha beside him."What are you looking at me for?" Natasha turns deeper shades of red. She has to turn her face away him.Jordan chuckles and drawls, "I told the beautiful receptionist that I lost something, which was why I came back to the company, but what she didn't know was that I actually didn't lose something but someone. Now, I've found her and I'm leaving with her.""Aww, that's so sweet," the receptionist whispers. "I've been seeing you guys together a lot. It's a good thing you decided to allow love blossom between you. "You guys look so good together, almost like a match made in heaven! I can't wait for your wedding invitation!"Jordan stares at Natasha, whose cheeks are now as red as fr
