My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 108

Charleston sighed and said, Jordan, I actually guessed that something like this would happen when I chose to let you become a live-in husband back then. A woman is a hurdle that a man must go through in this life, and having experienced betrayal may not necessarily be a bad thing for you."

"I just didn't expect you to be so deeply in love with Hailey Camden."

"Actually, she wasn't the one I intended for you to marry back then because I just wanted you to marry an ordinary girl. However, your second brother insisted on picking a beautiful woman to be your wife because he thinks that it's hard enough on you to have to be a live-in husband for three years."

"Now it seems that your second brother's good intentions have hurt you instead."

Indeed, all men care about appearance to varying extents.

If Hailey wasn't as pretty and svelte as she was, Jordan wouldn't have adored her as much as he did in the past three years.

At this moment, Jordan realized that some beautiful and materialistic women are like thorny roses that can be appreciated from afar but never be plucked and brought home.

Especially when one isn't powerful enough!

Otherwise, it would only be a matter of time before she cheats!

Because beautiful women tend to have numerous suitors, some might not be able to resist countless temptations, even if they do so once.

The self-control abilities of humans are not to be overestimated!

Seeing that Jordan wasn't saying anything, Charleston asked, "Jordan, what are you going to do? Divorce her? Anyway, she hasn't inherited our family's assets yet. With our power, she won't dare to refute if we force her to sign the divorce agreement."

"But she's pregnant with my child now, and we have to keep the baby! Of course, when the baby is born, we must get a DNA test done!"

Children mattered greatly to the older generation.

In fact, some rich and powerful families would make their sons marry a beautiful wife and then pressure her to give birth to at least two sons within two to three years.

Once the children were born, they would kick their daughters-in-law out of the family immediately because their purpose of childbirth had already been achieved.

Hailey had a stunningly beautiful face and superb talent in music and art, which was what the Steeles looked for in women.

Charleston didn't care about what Hailey's character was like. As long as she was carrying Jordan's child, the Steeles had full custody of them.

Jordan also felt that the child was innocent, and he couldn't bear to kill an unborn life!

Hence, he had the same thoughts as Charleston and wanted Hailey to give birth to the baby!

Jordan said, "Grandpa, I can't thrash things out with her and divorce her right away now. Some time ago, her grandaunt passed away, and I promised her on her deathbed that I will never divorce Hailey unless Hailey takes the initiative to divorce me."

So what do you mean??" Charleston began to feel puzzled.

Jordan answered, "Hailey is a materialistic and vain woman. Once I become penniless, I'm 100% certain that she will take the initiative to divorce me."

"So, Grandpa, I hope that you'll kick me out of the family!"

Jordan's words caught Charleston by surprise.

How could he bear to kick his grandson out of the family!?!

Charleston agreed, "Alright, I'll help you put on an act. Well, the Huxleys happen to be trying to deal with you, right? I won't help you maintain the stock price of Ace Corporation anymore so that you can pretend to be defeated by the Huxleys."

"Yes!"

That was actually a good excuse that wouldn't arouse Hailey's suspicions.

Actually, Jordan was somewhat thankful for Cayden's decision to go against him. Otherwise, he would have to rack his brains to find an excuse to get rid of the shameless woman, Hailey!

After hanging up, Jordan immediately freshened up. While brushing his teeth, the unbearable sounds of

Hailey's moaning seemed to still be ringing in his ears!
