My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 367

Miss Monroe's car was a white Porsche Taycan, which was a fully electric car.

Chloe fell asleep right after she got inside the car. She could barely stay away, perhaps because she was exhausted after three hours of continuous playing in the store.

While driving, Jordan said to Lauren, "If you're tired, you should take a nap. I'll wake you up when we reach home."

Lauren shook her head and said, "No, I'm not sleepy."

Keeping his eyes fixed on the road ahead, Jordan recalled what happened in the morning and said, "You should have guessed the relationship between the store manager, Miss Monroe, and my brother, Jamie, right? I remember how I thought you were Jamie's woman when

I first met you in the cafe in New York City."

"I know him too well. He definitely won't let a pretty woman go when he meets one."

"By the way, apart from throwing you to me, he hasn't bullied you or anything, right? I don't have any other intentions. I just want to say that if he has bullied you, I'll beat him up when I see him again!"

Hearing Jamie's name, Lauren remained calm and said, "No, Jamie still treats me with respect. Besides, I'm not a woman who would easily sleep with any man."

Hearing this, Jordan hurriedly explained, "Of course, I know you're not, and I don't mean it that way. Please don't get the wrong idea."

However, Lauren said, "I don't mean what you think either."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Jordan was a little bewildered.

'What does she mean, then?'

Lauren suddenly felt like changing the subject. She closed her eyes and said, "I'm a little tired, too. Wake me up when we get home."

Lauren closed her eyes. It was unclear if she was really asleep or just pretending to be so. However, while waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Jordan glanced at Lauren and Chloe, finding them to be really beautiful and adorable.

Jordan couldn't help but secretly take a picture of them and save it on his phone.

The moment he pressed the shutter button, Jordan clearly felt a subtle change in Lauren's expression.

Jordan realized Lauren was pretending to sleep.

"It seems that Lauren is still hiding something from me."

However, everyone has secrets.

Jordan himself came from a mysterious family, and even his family's secrets were kept hidden from him. Thus, he saw no need to probe and find out the secret of another man's fiancee.

After sending the two of them home, Jordan prepared a sumptuous lunch for them before driving the car back to the toy store to return it to Miss Monroe.

He then took the subway to work.

Soon, at 11,30 p.m., Jordan and Jay went about their daily patrol while the drunk Steve was chatting with them.

Jordan suddenly heard Chloe's voice.

"Daddy!"

Following the voice, he turned around and saw Chloe running towards him.

"Chloe!"

Jordan was surprised that Chloe and Lauren would come here at such a late hour because the mall was closed a long time ago.

Lauren's hair was tied into a ponytail and she was wearing a dark down jacket and a pair of black skinny jeans, which accentuated her slender legs.

She smiled and walked over. "I don't know what's up with Chloe today, but she refuses to go to bed, no matter how I coax her. She insists on coming to visit you."

Jordan smiled, elated to hear how much his daughter missed him. That was proof that his relationship with Chloe was getting better and better.

Holding onto Jordan's hand, Chloe pointed to a fountain outside the mall in front of her. She said, "Daddy, I want you to take me there to play."
