Brad spoke with an unquestionable firmness and dominance in his tone, as if he were Lauren's parent.
Before Jordan replied, Lauren was the first to be awkward. "Brad, what nonsense are you babbling? Who said that I... like him?"
Lauren was very concerned about what people said about her relationship with the "stranger."
Although she already shared a child with Jordan, they weren't even considered friends because they hadn't spent much time with each other.
Brad looked at Lauren and said, "Lauren, stop covering up. If you don't like him, why did you stay in that lousy cafe in New York City for such a long time? You even named it Cafe Nostalgia, which shows how much you miss him."
"There were so many times that I wanted to remove the signboard and get it redone!"
Lauren blushed shyly and said, "Nostalgia is a generic word. Anyway, I'm not the one who came up with the name."
However, Brad didn't show his sister the slightest mercy. "Even if you didn't come up with it, you'd always have the right to change the signboard, right? The cafe was already handed over to you anyway."
Jordan had already guessed that Jamie was probably the one who came up with the cafe's name and gave it to Lauren.
However, since Lauren kept using that name, it shows that she at least didn't hate him.
Or rather, she didn't mind being in an ambiguous relationship with Jordan.
Lauren didn't know how to explain because she was terrified of making things worse the further she explained. "Don't set me up with Jordan nonsensically. He has a girlfriend, and she's a very outstanding career woman."
Brad laughed and said, "You mean Victoria Clarke? She's no longer an issue. Just rest assured and marry Jordan."
Jordan looked at Brad with a frown and asked, "What do you mean by that? Did you do something to Victoria?"
Jordan sensed that something was amiss, and he knew that Brad had always been brazen and arrogant.
He even had the guts to sleep with Hailey. Victoria was just an orphan. It was possible that Brad might kill her even if it was for the sake of reaching his agenda.
Brad was just waiting for Jordan to say that. "Jordan, surely you don't know this yet, right? Your fiancee... Oh, no, it should be your ex-girlfriend. Your ex-girlfriend Victoria is going to marry Russell in Houston soon.
Hahaha!"
Smack!
Jordan slapped Brad on his face!
"Bastard, who are you to insult my fiancee?"
Jordan flew into a rage. Just now, Jordan had been saving Brad from embarrassment on Lauren's account.
However, Brad had now slandered Jordan's fiancee by saying that Victoria married Russell. How could Jordan possibly tolerate it?
"How dare you hit me? Even my grandfather has never slapped me before!"
They were at the Howards' compound. Today, Brad actually had the opportunity to shoot Jordan. How could he tolerate Jordan slapping him at will?
Brad was a martial arts practitioner too. He immediately got into a fight with Jordan.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Brad hit Jordan with all his might, and three punches left Jordan with no means to retaliate.
It could be seen that Brad's current strength should be slightly better than that of Chris. It was no wonder that he wasn't willing to let Chris be his brother-in-law.
However, it was also straightforward for Jordan to deal with Brad.
He did a feint and pretended to kick him in the stomach, after which he kicked Brad's previously injured right leg with a flying kick!
"Ah!"
Brad immediately shrieked in pain. Previously, Pablo stabbed his thigh twice, and his injury had yet to fully recover.
With this kick, Brad's defense was already flawed. Jordan once again slapped Brad twice!
Smack!
Smack!
"Jordan!”
