My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now! novel Chapter 85

Jordan looked at Rosie in bafflement, unable to figure out what she meant.

Rosie stopped kneeling and got up from the ground while her expression changed drastically. Her eyes were full of determination as if she was ready to go all out and die bravely.

Rosie said, ""Mr. Steele, Leonard, Tyler, the Ace Corporation personnel, and those from the Collins' company know I am here to see you today," Rosie said.

Jordan nodded and said, "1 know, and what about that?"

Rosie suddenly said, "I can stay here for the night!"

Jordan was really taken aback by her words. 'What a callous thing to say!'

At this moment, Jordan finally understood what Rosie meant.

Many people knew that Tyler had slept with the ex-wife of Jordan, the president of the esteemed Ace Corporation, which was a colossal disgrace and humiliation to Jordan.

If Jordan slept with Tyler's mother today, no one would ridicule Jordan again.

Such a method of revenge was far more impressive than crippling Tyler.

Jordan looked at Rosie in astonishment. He totally didn't expect that she would be willing to make such a huge sacrifice for the sake of saving her son!

"Mrs. Collins..."

Jordan looked at the ring on her ring finger and felt somewhat awkward in front of Rosie, who was twenty years older than him.

Rosie chuckled and said, "Of course, I know I can't be compared to Hailey or Victoria Clarke. I'm just an old woman who is way past my prime. I can totally accept it if you're not attracted to me."

Jordan was even more at a loss for words. Rosie was indeed a bit too old for Jordan.

However, because she was a middle-aged woman, she had maintained her beauty well, and she was no less attractive than female celebrities of her age.

Jordan said, "Mrs. Collins, you're gorgeous. You might be older than me, but you exude a mature charm that young women in their twenties do not possess."

Rosie felt a lot less awkward after receiving a compliment from Jordan.

To her surprise, Jordan continued, "However, even so, I have no other thoughts about you."

Rosie lowered her head again. Her plan to atone for her son's mistakes had fallen through.

"But."

There was surprisingly another twist. "I heard that you can sing very well. I'd be glad to listen to you sing if you're willing to stay behind."

Jordan had watched some videos of Rosie singing on Instagram previously and had taken a liking to her singing.

Rosie had the elegant charm of a songstress in the 30's and 40's, and Jordan really wanted to listen to her sing.

Grinning widely from ear to ear, Rosie said, "Mr. Steele, I'm absolutely willing to sing for you for the rest of the night. What songs do you like to listen to? If you like popular songs that were released in recent years, I'm afraid I won't be able to sing them because I've never heard them before."

Jordan said, "Mrs. Collins, forgive me for being presumptuous, but when I first saw a photo of you, I thought that you looked like a songstress from the 30's and 40's in New York. It so happens that you're from New York too. What a coincidence."

"When I was a child, I often heard my grandfather talk about the olden days in New York, which he says are the most memorable for him. It was the era that represented elegance, romance, modernity, and classicism."

"Grandpa would always describe the women from that era and the glamorous outfits they would don during their performances in halls. They would even dance along as they sang."

"So, I'd like you to sing some classic tunes."

Rosie was a little surprised to hear that. "Oh, Mr. Steele, so you'd like to experience the vibes of New York in the olden days. I was born much later than that era, so songs from that era are all a little too old for me as well."

"However, my mother often sang those old classics so I can sing them too."

"Mr. Steele, please give me a moment while I get someone to bring me a dress and a microphone."

Jordan initially wanted to say that he would be preparing those items.

However, he realized that he couldn't prepare a suitable dress for her on second thought because he didn't know Rosie's body measurements.

After about twenty minutes, someone delivered 20 dresses as Rosie had instructed!
