My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 112

Elie wasn't a good woman either!

Before Jordan revealed his identity as the president of Ace Corporation, she was even more harsh and callous with her words of mockery and insults compared to Hailey!

Her claim about having been secretly in love with Jordan for three years was nothing but a lie!

If Jordan was really poor, Hailey would at least be willing to treat him as a second option or a backup lover, but Elie wouldn't even look him in the eye!

Jordan had decided to be relentless at this juncture. 'Since you think you and I should be together instead, and you've even dolled yourself up to confess your love to me, I'll fulfill you!'

Hailey's betrayal made Jordan irrational.

At this moment, all he wanted to do was to take revenge on Hailey and the Camdens!

However, after ten minutes, Jordan pushed Elie away.

He did not allow his irrational and impulsive behavior to continue and stopped himself from taking things with Elie too far to an irreparable point.

Jordan sat on the ground and smacked his forehead with both hands. Deep down inside him, a voice was telling him that he wasn't doing the right thing.

"What's the matter?" Elie asked softly.

Jordan said, "I can't betray my marriage."

Elie said, "But Hailey betrayed you."

Jordan shook his head and said, "I can get a divorce, but I can't do the same thing as she did, just to get back at her. If I do that, what will set me apart from her? I'll become an adulterer who has betrayed my marriage, just like her."

Jordan knew that many married individuals, especially women, would feel an urge to get into an extramarital affair after finding out about their spouse's infidelity, all for revenge's sake.

However, this is not the right thing to do.

Jordan could choose to get a divorce, but he couldn't make the same mistake as Hailey.

Jordan's twenty-odd years of good upbringing would not allow him to do such a thing that goes against his principles!

Elie was extremely disappointed. She pulled her elegant dress up and straightened the creases of the fabric, which was a little stained.

She then squatted in front of Jordan, grabbed his arm, and said, "Jordan, I'll wait for you to get a divorce. Once you do, we'll be able to be together openly!"

Jordan smiled. He would naturally divorce Hailey for sure!

However, according to his plan, he would make Hailey initiate the divorce.

At that time, Jordan would have also been "kicked out" of the family and become an ordinary citizen.

Jordan laughed and said, "I'm afraid when the time comes, you may not want to be with me anymore."

Elie said, "How is that possible? I've carried a torch for you for three years. If you divorce Hailey now, I'd definitely snatch you up immediately!"

Jordan didn't dwell on this issue nor continue to argue with her about it. Instead, he asked, "Elie, who else did you tell about what happened between Hailey and me? Why didn't you tell me?"

Elie replied truthfully, "I didn't tell anyone about it, not my brother, not my dad, and not even Grandma."

"I planned to find some time to tell you about it first, but your company faced an attack recently, so I thought that you must be busy and decided to tell you after the saga blows over."

"Oh." Jordan nodded and said, "Don't tell anyone about this, for now, especially Hailey. Don't let her know that I've already found out about her affair."

Elie answered obediently, "Alright, I won't tell anyone about this. Rest assured."

Jordan nodded and said, "You may leave now. I'll call you again if there's anything. I'm so sorry about what happened just now..."

Elie said with happiness written all over her face, "What are you apologizing for? I'm more than happy, that was my first kiss!

Jordan had spent the past three years living with the Camdens, so he knew that Herman had always been very strict with his children and forbade Elie from having a boyfriend.

Her words were indeed believable.

It was indeed somewhat ironic because Jordan didn't get Hailey's first kiss, but he had stolen her cousin Elie's first kiss.

Elie strutted out of the office gleefully in her stilettos. On the other hand, Jordan was in a much better mood than before.

Perhaps, what happened between him and Elie in the past ten minutes had made Jordan feel a little guilty towards Hailey.

After stepping out of the office, Elie went to the washroom to put on some makeup because her lipstick had already been smudged from the kiss.
