At Hailey's provocative words, Victoria kept crying. Her tears fell like sparkling raindrops.
She had always been a domineering CEO.
She was high and mighty and confident.
She had a clear conscience, so she felt very righteous.
However, now that she knew that something like that had happened to her, she no longer had the confidence to speak dominantly.
She had become a dirty woman like Hailey. The kind of woman she had once despised the most.
Jordan was also feeling very distressed. Victoria didn't remember what happened at all, but Jordan now knew!
Recalling Clara's words, Jordan felt extremely upset!
Jordan loved Victoria the most. She was beautiful and elegant, but she was ruined by Clara, that despicable woman! However, Jordan was not in the mood to be angry about this. His heart ached on seeing Victoria cry!
Hurrying forward, he took Victoria's hand. "Victoria, don't cry. I don't care about any of that. You're still my wife! I'll love you like before. Nothing has changed between us!"
Jordan did not choose to complain or make a fuss. He just wanted to comfort Victoria as soon as possible! He wanted to tell Victoria that he would never abandon her because of this!
Hailey was stunned.
She thought that Jordan would be very angry and despise Victoria because she knew that Jordan couldn't stand being cheated on.
Back then, when Jordan found out that Hailey had an affair, he had almost gone crazy.
Hearing Jordan's words, Hailey shouted, "Jordan, aren't you too unfair to me? We both cheated on you. But you hit and scolded me, saying that I'm unclean and that I'm a b*tch and a dirty woman. That the thought of me with another man disgusted you, and that you didn't want to touch me or be intimate with me anymore!
"Why is it different for Victoria?! Why can you forgive her? Why can't you forgive me?!"
Hailey felt extremely aggrieved. Why did Jordan treat her and Victoria so differently?
Hailey had been with Jordan longer than Victoria. She had even given birth to a son for him!
Lauren said, "Hailey, please don't confuse Victoria with yourself. You knowingly cheated on Jordan. Victoria didn't even know what happened at all. It was Shaun's wife who did that to take revenge on Jordan. At that time, Brad found Victoria at the hotel and told me about this. I feel that Victoria is completely innocent and so we shouldn't let her suffer for it. So, I asked Brad to lie for me and say that he found Victoria in the cinema.
"I'm sorry, Hubby, Victoria, I lied to you both."
Actually, Lauren had good intentions. She didn't want Jordan and Victoria's relationship to break down because of this. She had even especially given Victoria a birth control pill before she woke up, afraid that she would get pregnant with that boy's child.
If Lauren was a selfish woman, she could have told the truth. In that way, she might be able to have Jordan all to herself.
Victoria didn't blame Lauren. She didn't even have the strength to blame Clara. She only blamed herself. She kept crying as she said to Jordan, "I'm sorry, Hubby. I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
Over and over Victoria kept crying and apologizing, which made Jordan's heart ache.
