Mr De’Luka started shivering with wrath. He was anything but a loser and a nobody like the man before him had no right to insult him.
Right there and then, he wanted to pull a gun and rip the man’s skull with bullets. Or maybe ask his bodyguards to break all the bones in Jordan’s body.
“What is going through your head now, Mr De’Luka? You want to kill me right here in the open? I want to believe that you are a bit wiser than that.” Jordan walked closer, closing any gap that separated them.
They were now bleeding their wrath on each other’s faces. Mr De’Luka felt the footsteps of his bodyguards coming to his rescue, but he raised a hand to stop them to which they obeyed. Jordan had a point. He could not afford to do anything to the daring, galling man in the open. That would be too much of a gamble.
“I will get you soon, Mr nobody. And when I do, you will wish you never crossed my path.” Mr De&rsq

“I want you to stay the fuck off Ana!” Jordan said in a faint but a hilarious echo that drew the both of them into obfuscation.“Excuse me?” Mr De’Luka spoke with disbelief after recovering from the shock.Actually, he had not recovered from it. Just like his wife, he was thinking that he perhaps did not hear Jordan right the first time. The foolish man had no grounds whatsoever to even hint they stayed from their adopted daughter, not to talk of acting all serious like he meant it.“Speak up, young man! What did you just say?” Mrs De’Luka added.“You heard me loud and clear. I want both of your faces as far from Ana as possible until she asks to see you. Not even your useless bodyguards should stick their noses around unless you want to sacrifice them.” Jordan emphasized.“You can not just do any of that young man. Ana is our daughter. It is you who needs to get your pathetic self from this place and disappear into thin air if you can. You are digging your own grave with your hauteur
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS CRASH TANGLE
“OMG! Just what the heck is the problem with you, Jordan? Can’t you just stay out of trouble? What have you gotten yourself into this time around? You have blood on your clothes. Did you kill someone in an attempt to steal a meal or some coins?” Diana screeched as they closed the safe gap that was between them.On Diana’s side was the man he had cheated on him with, Edwin, with their fingers intertwined as if mocking someone. But that wasn’t Jordan. If at anything, he felt sympathized for the soul that was going to spend even just a couple of days with the impossible woman. But the man seemed well deserving of the torture he was getting himself into in the name of marriage.What worried Jordan the most was the other man on Diana’s side and the way he acted like he had a relationship with the two.“I am not surprised if someone tried to kill him in the streets. Look? Aren’t these the same clothes he was wearing three days ago? That means he is in the streets where he belongs. You ain’t
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS DIMMED DREAMS
The faint reverberant rustling of Adrew scraping his head could be heard through the lull engulfing them. His eyes looked everywhere but his father whose face conformed to a charcoal with dark curtains of disbelief and anticipation. That corroborated Jordan’s actual facial visage because he was at a loss to ace the unforeseen turn of events. He also didn’t understand why it astounded Mr Jonathan that his son was getting married to some lady who once married before. Didn’t he know?Dianna, on the other hand, had her eyes firing deadly arrows at Jordan. If she was asked to make just one wish at that moment, she would have wished for Jordan to vanish from the face of the earth by all means. The guy seemed like he had made a vow to the devil to humiliate her every single time they crashed ever since she threw him out.First, he hooked himself with that arrogant, loaded girl who slapped Diana on the coat. Second, he beat up her lover in the hotel and humiliated them in front of everyone. A
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE
“Well, Endy? I am freaking waiting! Don’t keep me waiting and don’t try my patience by acting like a coward like always.” Diana hissed after a long moment of silence.Diana could not cloak her perturbation from how her walls were crashing with fear every passing second that Edwin remained mute. She was growing anxious wondering what the dimwit was thinking about. Would he fight for her or it would be the same old cases?Edwin cleared his throat, deciding to try his luck, but deep down he knew there was a limit to how far he could push his luck. He would do anything other than jeopardize his relationship with his father. He could not risk losing the fortune he was entitled to just because of a woman who could not humble herself to anyone.“Dad, please! I rescued her from that torturous marriage with her useless husband. That is what you always taught me, right? To defend helpless people! This man you are praising so much had nothing to offer her. She was miserable. You should at least
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS MORE RIVALARY
“There is nothing more, father! It is nothing!” Edwin tried to lie with a strained boldness that sold him off.He was struggling to even breathe, and obviate his father’s eyes at all costs. Jordan found Edwin to be such a coward. He could not only acknowledge his mistake, but he was also afraid of telling the truth.“Yes, there is! Do you want to come out clean or do I let Jordan speak? I know he won’t lie to me like you two are lying to my face.” Mr Jonathan spoke.Now that stroked Edwin’s demons. How could his father trust a total stranger and a useless soul like Jordan instead of his son? He despised how his father was banking all his trust and affection on Edwin’s mortal enemy.“Would you rather believe a total stranger, a right-down fool like this man instead of your son?” Edwin asked. The heat of his wrath was burning his skin, making it flash with redness.“This man that you detest so much saved my life! I demand that you show some respect to him.” His father urged.“I don’t ca
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS SENSE OF DEFEAT
‘I knew it! He is such a hard nut to crack!’ Edwin sighed inwardly.‘This old fool is bent on boiling the ocean for me until I am totally ruined. What else is going through his head now, huh?’ Diana screeched inside. She hated Mr Jonathan for being so bullheaded. It seemed like Jordan had succeeded in recruiting one devotee on his side - people who made her blood boil.Jordan on the other hand was eager, just like everyone was. He wanted to know what Mr Jonathan had to say.“What now, father-in-law? What else do you want to say?” Diana screeched.“My same old stand - this marriage can not hold! I will not allow my family’s name to be dragged into the mud by this. You two better think of a way to solve this without getting me involved.” He spoke, sternly and boldly. Undefiable.Diana felt like collapsing with fear and anger. How could the old man be so difficult? What would happen to her baby if the old fool succeeded? She would be the laughing stock, especially in her circle of afflue
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS THE SUSPICIOUS MAN
“With all due respect, Mr Jonathan, that is gone and buried. I believe that it is best that we just forget about it and try to solve the one at hand. What I mean is, I already took care of it and I don’t want to dwell on it.” Mr De’Luka argued.Just like Mr J.onathan, Mr De’Luka also knew Mr Jonathan very well. The fool acted all saint and wanted everything solved in the most ostensibly way. He thought that the man had missed his career. Instead of being a businessman, he should have sneaked his way somewhere in the law enforcement sector or become a judge. Even then as he gawked at him, Mr De’Luka could tell that the man was growing suspicious every single second that passed.Mr Jonathan was indeed dubious of the old man. He knew that in business you could not vouch for anyone. Money was the root course of all evil, they said, and he could not concur any less. There was just something about Mr De’Luka that he didn’t unde
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS NEED FOR SAFETY
“What? Do you want more money?” Mr De’Luka spoke after turning to Edwin.They stood right in front of their faces while the rest stood in awe waiting. Not even Diana could tell what Edwin was thinking about.“No! I just want to correct you.” Edwin said, as his hand rummanged inside his pocket."Correct me? Explain yourself.” Mr De’Luka asked.Edwin pulled out something as he spoke to the arrogant man. “The thing I regret the most is having trusted you, Mr De’Luka. The person who beat me up is still walking free. And now that my father knows about this, here is your cheque. I do not have to remain under your clutches anymore.” He returned the cheque to him, and Mr De’Luka accepted it with a dark frown.His plan had failed. He didn’t know whether Mr Jonathan would still remain mute about the incident now that his stupid son had returned the cheque. But all in all, he was Mr De&rs
