The Abandoned Husband Dominates Novel - Chapter 132
Chapter 132: Really Divorced!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jordan and Hailey looked at each other at the same time.
Hailey was still as beautiful as ever, be it when she was angry, smiling, tearing up, or drenched in the rain.
However, Jordan knew that there was no turning back for both of them.
Hailey kept accusing Jordan of holding a grudge against her for her affair with Tyler, but that wasn’t actually the case.
Hailey and Tyler’s affair happened before Jordan revealed his identity.
That incident had indeed hurt Jordan, but it wasn’t irreparable.
The real reason that Jordan felt that he couldn’t spend the rest of his life with Hailey was the affair between her and Cayden.
When it began, Hailey was already the wife of the president of Ace Corporation, and she would soon become one of the heirs to the Steeles.
Perhaps Hailey and Cayden really didn’t have anything going on, but holding hands was still inappropriate even then.
Besides, once Jordan became penniless, Hailey’s attitude towards him changed drastically.
Jordan would never want a woman like her who couldn’t share weal and woe with him and was only after his riches!
“We’re getting a divorce!”
Hailey said the same thing at the same time as Jordan.
Seeing how firm and resolute they were, David nodded and said, “Please come with me.”
David brought them to a room and said to a person sitting inside, “Jane, get up for a moment. I’ll process the divorce for this couple personally.”
“Okay.” The female employee named Jane looked at Jordan and Hailey with some surprise.
David personally processed the divorce papers for Jordan and Hailey and issued them a divorce decree.
David said, “Mr. Steele, Miss Camden, you two are officially divorced and are no longer bound to marriage. This divorce decree is officially valid, and there will be no more problems like there was last time.”
Jordan knew that the same mistake wouldn’t happen since David was the director.
At this moment, he and Hailey were really divorced!
It had been more than three years!
Memories of the past started running through Jordan’s mind continuously.
There were memories of when they first met, started falling in love with each other, followed by the betrayal, and eventually turned against each other.
It was truly saddening.
Since they left the City Clerk Office, Hailey did not speak a single word to Jordan and simply drove away alone.
Jordan unlocked his cell phone and habitually checked out Hailey’s Instagram account, only discovering that he could no longer view her Instagram posts.
That just meant that Hailey had already blocked Jordan on Instagram.
Jordan let out a long sigh.
He called an Uber and headed to a cheap hotel nearby, where it cost less than 50 bucks for a night’s stay.
This time, he didn’t go to a luxury hotel like the West Lake Hotel, which he went to previously.
He could have made Hailey regret divorcing him again by revealing to her that his expulsion from his family was all but an act.
However, Jordan didn’t want to do that.
“If I could, I would like Hailey to feel that I am a penniless man for the rest of her life and think that it’s the right decision to divorce me.”
Jordan muttered to himself when he reached the hotel room.
Knock-knock.
Someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Jordan asked in bafflement, “Who’s there?”
“Sir, do you need my service?” A strange female voice sounded at the door, and it seemed to have been deliberately nasally.
Jordan frowned. ‘Cheap hotels are just so chaotic.’
“No!”
Jordan exclaimed.
“Open the door and take a look at me.”
The girl outside the door seemed to be reluctant to give up.
Jordan was extremely peeved in the first place. He stood up immediately and hollered, “I’ll call the cops on you if you don’t leave!”
At this point, the girl outside the door finally spoke in her normal voice. “Jordan, it’s me!”
“Elle?”
Only then did Jordan walk over and open the door to see that it was indeed Elle.
“Haha, I was just teasing you. At the same time, I was also testing my future husband’s character. Indeed, you’re a good man who doesn’t engage a hooker. I really like you!”
Elle exclaimed in delight.
Jordan let Elle in, closed the door, and asked, “How do you know that I’m staying here? Did you follow me here?”
Elle chuckled and admitted, “Yes, I’ve been following you since you and Hailey came out of the City Clerk Office.”
“Jordan, now that you finally got divorced, can you consider being with me now?”
Elle looked at Jordan with affection in her large, watery eyes.
Jordan said, “Elle, we really aren’t suitable for each other. Besides, I’m just a penniless man now while you’re the heiress of a notable family in Orlando. I’m not worthy of you at all, and your grandmother won’t agree to it.”
Elle said, “Drop the act. I know you’re still a part of the Steele family. Quick, become the president of Ace Corporation again and marry me. I want to be the wife of a company president!”
Jordan knew that Elle wanted to marry him because of his identity.
Jordan said, “I can tell you for sure that I won’t be the president of any company again in the future. I’ll only be working an ordinary job in the future and make a few grand a month like the average folk.”
Jordan wasn’t lying to Elle. Those were his true thoughts.
After his marriage to Hailey, he discovered that many women these days are too materialistic.
They liked those who were rich and powerful.
When one holds a high status, they won’t tell if a woman really loves them for who they are or for their material possessions.
Hence, Jordan decided not to be the president of a company anymore and just live like an average person pursuing true love.
Only after he finds his true love like an ordinary person will he reveal his identity to her.
Only a woman willing to suffer and go through hard times with him would be worthy of the hundreds of billions in assets belonging to the Steeles.
Women like Hailey and Elle were not worthy at all.
Elle was clearly dejected. “What’s so good about being an ordinary person? Being the president of a company is so much better. Hailey has hurt you so much. Don’t you want to become an overbearing president again to make her regret?”
Jordan shook his head very firmly and said, “I don’t want to.”
He had already done that once, and it was enough. He didn’t want to see Hailey getting on her knees to beg for forgiveness or come back to pester him again.
Jordan said, “Elle, you should go back. Thank you for your help this time. You were willing to sacrifice your reputation to help me get rid of your cousin. I’ll definitely give you a gift to thank you.”
“However, I don’t have money now. I have to wait until I start working before I can buy you something.”
Elle still didn’t quite believe that Jordan really didn’t have any money. She said, “You’re in low spirits because you just got a divorce. I’ll come to see you another day.”
After Elle left, Jordan smoked a cigarette.
He then called Pablo.
Jordan did not wish to make Hailey regret her decision by revealing his identity as a powerful president all over again.
However, revenge must be served.
Tyler Collins and Cayden Huxley, who had both cheated with Hailey, must pay a considerable price for their actions!
Chapter 133: Retaliate!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
If Tyler and Cayden had stayed in New York, Jordan would have found it difficult to deal with them.
After all, the Huxleys’ power in New York was still very significant.
On the other hand, Pablo and Salvatore may not dare to act as brazenly in New York as they do in Orlando.
However, Tyler and Cayden insisted on digging their own graves by coming to Orlando to create trouble for Jordan.
It wouldn’t be Jordan’s fault that they couldn’t return in one piece then.
Jordan dialed Pablo’s number and said briefly, “Do it.”
Pablo answered, “Mr. Jordan, what do you need me to do? Get rid of Tyler Collins?”
The Collins were now on the verge of bankruptcy, and Tyler deserved to die for having slept with Hailey, so killing him wouldn’t take much trouble.
Jordan didn’t want to be that ruthless on the account that Tyler’s mother had once pleaded with him.
“Just make sure he can never get intimate with a woman again. Castrate him.”
“Yes! What about Cayden Huxley? Should we do the same to him?”
After all, Cayden was the grandson of Arthur Huxley, a famous and prestigious tycoon in the country.
If they were to castrate Cayden, Arthur would definitely find the culprit at all costs.
Salvatore and the others would definitely be discovered when the time comes, and it would then be difficult for them to survive in the country.
Thus, Jordan wanted to use a more covert approach.
“I have a bottle of medicine here that I brought back from the battlefield. Send someone over to pick it up from me and then get a nurse at the hospital to inject it into Cayden’s body.
After hearing this, Pablo hurriedly thanked, “I’ll thank you on behalf of Salvatore, Mr. Jordan!”
“Yes, I’m at Luca Motel near the City Clerk Office. My room number is 706. Send someone here now.”
After saying that, Jordan hung up the phone, then opened the room’s door a little.
Knock-knock.
“Come in. The door is not closed.”
The person who pushed the door and entered was Pablo.
“Oh? You didn’t leave?”
Jordan thought that Pablo had left Orlando with Frank.
Pablo said, “I returned after I sent Mr. Reyes to England. You said I’m not qualified to see your grandfather yet.”
Jordan smiled and said, “Get the task done well, and I’ll recommend you for more things in the future.”
“Thank you, Mr. Jordan!” Pablo was overjoyed.
Although it was said that he was already very powerful in the underworld societies, he might get arrested at any time.
Hence, he had always wanted to defect to Jordan’s grandfather, far away in England.
Jordan took out a small black bottle and handed it to Pablo.
After taking it with both hands, Pablo asked, “Mr. Jordan, what will happen after this is injected?”
Jordan said, “Headache and fever, difficulty in breathing.”
Pablo was a little puzzled, “These symptoms seem very ordinary. Can’t they be cured?”
Jordan said, “With the current medical standards in Orlando, the effects should wear out in a few hours after treatment.”
“That’s really too great of an advantage for Cayden Huxley! Mr. Jordan, we know the Huxleys are very powerful and not to be trifled with. Still, since he dared to violate your ex-wife, he deserves to die! I’m willing to get rid of him for you even if it means that I can’t make a living in the country anymore!”
Pablo expressed his loyalty.
Jordan smiled and said, “We’re not related to each other by blood. You don’t need to sacrifice your hard-earned power for me.”
“Don’t worry, I’m just going to make him have a splitting headache for a few hours, that’s all. This disease may look ordinary, but in fact, there will be severe after-effects after it is cured.”
“The worst is that it will cause infertility in men.”
Pablo was instantly curious. “There are such things on the battlefield too? Haha, this one’s great. It’ll make Cayden Huxley infertile forever, and even if he has children in the future, he’ll just be raising another man’s children. Hahahah.”
Jordan didn’t intend to be that cruel either, but Cayden had sent orders for Jordan’s fingers to be hacked off, so he couldn’t blame Jordan for doing so.
…
It was nine in the evening.
Gold Mine Nightclub.
“Come on, Salvatore, let me toast to you!”
In the private room, Tyler was drinking and eating some watermelon with Salvatore.
At the same time, he was also sandwiched between two beautiful women dressed in suits and held in his arms.
Salvatore smiled, clinked glasses with Tyler, and said, “Mr. Collins, you seem to be in high spirits today.”
Tyler had already drunk six beers, and he seemed to be tipsy.
“That’s for sure! That punk Jordan Steele has already divorced Hailey. Just like me, he got dumped, hahaha.”
“After the divorce this time, he didn’t stay in any high-class hotel but checked into a cheap motel that costs less than 50 bucks a night.
“In a while, his fingers are going to be cut off by your men too.”
“He caused my family to go bankrupt. I’ve finally taken revenge!”
Salvatore smiled and raised his glass again. “Congratulations, Mr. Collins.”
Tyler clinked his glass and said, “Salvatore, when are you going to do it? When you do it, can you cut one more finger? Two for my cousin and one for me.”
Salvatore thought, ‘You fool, you don’t even know that you’re on the brink of death.”
Salvatore said, “Okay, two million. Mr. Collins, give me two more million, and I’ll cut one more finger off.”
Tyler said awkwardly with a chuckle, “You know I don’t have money now. Ah, forget it, count that punk Jordan lucky, let him keep one finger!”
“By the way, Salvatore, I heard that the latest attraction here is a Thai lady-boy show. Can you introduce one of them to me to let me have an eyeopener?”
Salvatore snapped his fingers and said to the underling at the door, “Get a lady-boy to come in.”
Soon, a curvaceous beauty entered.
Tyler instantly lost interest in the two babes beside him and said, “Hahaha, very unique, indeed. I like her!”
Salvatore shook his head and said, “You have a unique taste. Go ahead and enjoy. I’ll get going now.”
Tyler hurriedly got up and said, “Thank you, Salvatore, take care!”
After Salvatore left the private room, he didn’t walk away but instead stayed outside the door.
After less than five minutes, Tyler shrieked in misery.
“Ah!!! No!!!”
Salvatore threw away his cigarette and sent a text message to Pablo. “Done dealing with Tyler Collins.”
Meanwhile, in the VIP ward of the affiliated hospital.
“Miss, are you new? You’re quite pretty.”
Cayden remarked when he saw a nurse, who looked different from the previous one, enter.
The beautiful nurse smiled faintly without saying anything.
Seeing that the nurse was going to put him on an IV drip, Cayden asked, “Aren’t all the injections for today done?”
The nurse said, “This is the doctor’s instructions. He said that a bottle of this at night will help with recovery.”
Coincidentally, Hailey happened to call Cayden at this moment, so he didn’t really suspect anything.
“Honey, did you miss me? I’m so bored without you here to accompany me tonight.”
Cayden said with a gleeful smile, knowing that Hailey and Jordan had gotten divorced.
“I heard that Jordan checked into a motel.”
“Don’t worry, I didn’t hire someone to chop his fingers off, but he definitely has many enemies since he caused so many companies to fold previously.. If he really gets slashed or something, you can’t suspect me, baby.”
