My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 453

Marissa frowned when she heard Martin's analysis. This was also what Martin was puzzled and worried about.

Why didn't the Steeles send someone over when something so serious happened to Jordan?

Were Jordan's grandfather, parents, and brother not worried about him? Of course Jordan's family had to care about him. If Jordan really lost his sight, they would definitely visit him.

However, Jordan had already told his grandfather the truth, so the Steeles did not have to worry.

"Give up on Jordan?"

Martin went through the points again. If the Steeles abandoned Jordan because he had become disabled, Jordan would never be able to know the family's secrets!

Marissa continued, "Dad, think about it. Jordan is handicapped now. He can't see anything. How can he inherit the Steele family business? Even if the Steeles have a big secret, they wouldn't let a blind person like Jordan hold it. Even if we remain optimistic, can we guarantee that Jordan won't meet with another mishap after his eyes are cured?

"I think it was his eldest brother or second brother who poisoned him. On the surface, the Steele descendants seem to be very close to each other. But who knows how they are fighting in private!"

Martin couldn't help standing up from his seat and pacing back and forth. In fact, Martin had been investigating who had harmed Jordan.

If it was Brad who had harmed Jordan, that would be fine. Brad was Jordan's enemy whom he had provoked in the past.

With the Howard family's powers, they could easily settle it.

However, it would be difficult if it was Jordan's biological brother.

Martin sighed. "Jordan has been in low spirits ever since he lost his sight. I'm really afraid that he won't dare to compete with his two brothers."

Marissa snorted coldly. "Jordan is just a useless son-in-law. How can he compare to his two brothers? His two brothers are playing him like a fool. You saw Jesse when he came last time. He's more powerful than Jesse by a long shot. Moreover, I have a feeling that he treats Jordan well on the surface, but in fact, he doesn't love this younger brother at all!"

"And that animal, Jamie. He captured my daughter for him. He clearly wants him dead! Dad, I advise you not to place all your hopes on Jordan. He's not suited to be anyone important."

Martin sighed again. He clenched his fists and punched the mahogany desk.

"I'm so angry! I can't accept this! Charleston already summoned Jordan and Lauren to England. It is clear that he was about to tell Jordan about the Steele family secret. But something like that happened to Jordan at this critical juncture! It must be Jamie. He's afraid that Jordan will be a threat to him if he knows the family secret."

Marissa nodded. "That's right. He was only poisoned this time as a warning. If Jordan comes close to knowing the family's secret again, I'm afraid he'll be killed! We can't let Lauren can't be with Jordan anymore. Otherwise, she'll be implicated sooner or later.

"Dad, whether you agree or not, I have to find a new partner for Lauren."

Marissa had always been very stubborn and was not afraid to assert herself in the Howard family, even though she was no longer Stefan's only wife. This was because Marissa's own family was also very famous in the capital.

Martin pondered for a moment before saying, "New partner? Do you have a candidate in mind? Which family's young master will be willing? Lauren is married and has a four-year-old child. I'm afraid it won't be easy for her to find a new partner."

Seeming to have expected this response, Marissa nodded. "Yes, Lauren is no longer a 20-year-old virgin. With the current situation, it's impossible to find a young master from a big family like the Howards. So I plan to choose a family from a lower class."

Martin placed his hands behind his back and nodded. "Yes, it's feasible for her to be with someone from a lower class. Lauren has high standards. She definitely won't want anyone who is too old or ugly.

"If you choose a family from a lower class, there will be a large number of men who meet Lauren's requirements. How many do you have your eye on?"
