Victoria's teardrop landed on the Chanel handbag that Jordan had given her.
The man walking beside her took out a piece of tissue and handed it to Victoria. "Do you fancy him?"
Victoria took the tissue and wiped her tears with it. "I've done something to let him down."
"However, not only did he not blame me, but he also forgave me and allowed me to be his deputy president. He's really nice to me too, and even when he stepped down as president at the end, he recommended me to take over as president."
"I couldn't help him when the Camdens ganged up against him previously, and now that the Collins and Huxleys are bullying him, I can't do anything to help either."
"If it wasn't for his magnanimity, I would have long lost my role as president. He's the one who gave me everything I have now. No, I have to go and help him!"
As Victoria went on, she got even more agitated as she felt that Jordan was the best man she had ever met.
Previously, the Camdens asked their guests to boycott Jordan, and those who took part in it, such as Zack, Tyler, Ryan, and others, had all gone bankrupt!
Victoria was the only one who remained unharmed and was even promoted to the president!
Jordan may not be aware that she carried a torch for him, and even if he didn't get into a relationship with her, he could have slept with her like other men tried to.
However, Jordan didn't do that!
He had been treating Victoria with nothing but respect. He didn't take liberties with her or take advantage of her by abusing his authority as her superior!
In Victoria's opinion, a man like him was scarce because she had met too many disgusting men who wanted to sleep with her.
Victoria was about to press the elevator button with her slender hand to get out, but the man beside her grabbed her wrist to stop her.
"Victoria, don't be impulsive. It wasn't easy for you to get to where you are today. Just think about how much hardship you've gone through in the past. Don't give up everything you have for the sake of a man!"
The man succeeded in stopping Victoria, but it made Victoria feel even guiltier.
In Floral Valley restaurant.
"Who exactly is this man? A mere word from him was enough to make that beautiful president leave."
"He seems to command enough power to attack another company in the business circle. He's probably a rich second-generation heir!"
"He must be a rich second-generation heir. Otherwise, how could he have been so haughty and harsh with his words? I think he's worth at least ten million dollars!"
"That's too little, I'm guessing a hundred million!"
"A hundred million? Damn, that would last me longer than a lifetime!" The other patrons in the restaurant were discussing incessantly.
Most of them were ordinary people who earned a monthly income of a couple of thousands of dollars and knew very little about the world of the rich.
In their opinion, 10 million dollars was already a staggering amount.
They didn't even dare to imagine having so much money because it seemed a little surreal to them.
However, for families like the Steeles and Huxleys, 10 million dollars was a meager amount that they could easily fork out.
After Victoria left, Cayden walked towards Jordan smugly and said, "Jordan Steele, do you know who I am?"
Of course, Jordan knew who this beast was!
He was the bastard who had harassed his wife, Hailey!
Jordan recalled the photo that Elie showed him the other day, in which Cayden was holding Hailey very intimately.
Hailey was wearing a short skirt that day, so Cayden had already taken liberties with her by touching her thighs!
At this moment, Jordan really wanted to cripple Cayden's right hand!
However, Jordan knew he couldn't do that.
Impulsiveness is a devil. Landing oneself in prison because of a moment of anger was not a wise choice that a rational man would make.
Before Jordan could say anything, Tyler walked towards him conceitedly.
"Jordan Steele, keep your eyes wide open and take a clear look for yourself. This is my cousin, son of a Huxley. You've been the president of Ace Corporation for a while, so you should know how impressive our family is, huh?"
Cayden said, "Jordan Steele, I didn't know who you were at first, and there wasn't a need for me to bully you into becoming bankrupt."
