When Victoria heard Russell's words, she felt extremely flustered.
"Russell, what do you mean? Why can all other women marry Jordan, but not me?"
"Just because I had been your mistress for three years?
Or are you trying to... threaten me with those videos and photos from the past?"
When Victoria was with Russell, she was still a simple girl who wasn't scheming.
Hence, Russell had plenty of evidence and proof that he could use to threaten Victoria.
However, when Russell heard Victoria's question, he got even angrier.
"Victoria! I'm your father's good friend! I'm considered your kin! Don't you think of me as such a shameless person, okay?!"
In fact, Victoria also felt that Russell should not be such a despicable villain.
After all, Russell had already reached the age of 50 years old, and he was now the president of a company that was worth dozens of billions of dollars.
Since he couldn't win her heart, he would just let her off instead of resorting to such despicable tricks to make her stay.
"What is the reason then?" Victoria asked, becoming even more curious.
However, Russell did not directly tell her the reason.
"Come to Houston to see me, and I'll tell you in person what exactly the reason is."
Victoria frowned and wondered what exactly it was that they couldn't talk about over the phone.
With Victoria's understanding of Russell over the years, she knew very well that Russell was definitely not lying to her or keeping her in suspense for no reason. She knew that there must really be something important for him to be acting like this.
After giving it some thought, Victoria said, "I can't go over in the next few days. I'll fly there to see you in a week."
Jordan's paternity test report would be released in a week, so Victoria knew that the following week would definitely be arduous for Jordan. Hence, she wanted to stay in New York City to accompany him.
Russell said, "Okay, I'll see you in a week then. However, I want to remind you that before you come and see me, you mustn't get married to Jordan or think of getting engaged to him. Got it?"
Victoria knew that Jordan would not be in the mood to get married before the paternity test results were out.
Hence, she agreed right away, "Yes!"
At this moment, Hailey, who had just returned home, wasn't in the mood to cajole her babies at all. Instead, she kept chugging water incessantly.
She would down a large glass of water at a time.
Seeing that Hailey didn't seem to be in the right state, Sylvie asked worriedly, "My dear daughter, tell me
honestly, do the children belong to Jordan?"
Hailey immediately denied, "Mom, what are you talking about? They're definitely Jordan's children!"
Only then did Sylvie heave a huge sigh of relief. "That's good. Haha, the Camdens are going to strike it rich. Hailey, with these twins, you don't ever have to worry about money again."
In the following week, Victoria went to work, continuing the "foreign female courier" plan that Jordan had developed earlier.
Jordan had also built the J Corporation office building in New York City. The world's top architectural design team designed the overall building structure. The building was set to be the dominant and spectacular building globally.
However, although Jordan had a lot to do since he was the J Corporation President, he couldn't concentrate on his work.
He only worked for a day and gave up because his brain was filled with thoughts about the report.
