Chapter 128: I Want To Divorce Jordan!

“They can do whatever they like! I’m going to divorce Hailey Camden anyway. I won’t care about her!”
Jordan said that to himself countless times, but he still couldn’t stop himself from calling Hailey at 12:10 pm.
“Honey, where are you? I’ve already made lunch. Are you coming home for lunch?”
Jordan’s tone was calm, and he feigned ignorance.
Hailey said over the phone, “I’m still at the office, and I won’t go home for lunch. You go ahead on your own.”
Fortunately, Jordan sent someone to follow Hailey, or else she would have deceived him again!
‘This woman, who’s full of lies, has deceived me countless times in the past three years!’
Jordan naturally didn’t expose her either. Instead, he asked, “Didn’t you go look for Cayden Huxley in the hospital? How did it go?”
.
Hailey said, “Well, I’ve already apologized, but he’s severely injured, and he’s still piqued at the moment. So, he refuses to forgive you now. Just stay home for the time being and give it some time. I’ll go beg him again when I’m free.”
Jordan humphed gently. ‘Hah, the way you talk about him is so affectionate!’
‘You know very well yourself if you’ve gone to beg Cayden Huxley for forgiveness or took the opportunity to have a rendezvous with him!’
“Okay, that’s it for now. I have to go get busy.”
Hailey hung up before Jordan spoke again.
Hailey did not come out of Cayden’s hospital ward until 2 pm.
After leaving the hospital, she went to meet Rachel at a café.
At 5 pm, Hailey drove to Diana’s villa.
Diana, Benedict, Sylvie, and Herman’s family were all there.
Everyone was sitting on the couch, except for Hailey, who stood facing Diana in the middle of the hall.
She said, “Grandma, I want to divorce Jordan.”
Her words made the jaws of the Camdens drop.
During this period, the Camdens had put in plenty of effort to help Hailey reconcile with Jordan.
However, Hailey mentioned a divorce yet again!
“No way!” Diana was adamant. “Your grandfather had arranged for you and Jordan to be married, and we’ve already violated it once. We can’t do it again!”
Sylvie agreed with Hailey’s decision, so she said, “Things are different now. Hailey was indeed wrong to have initiated a divorce back then, but that was because he didn’t know of Jordan’s true identity yet.”
“However, even though we’re now aware of Jordan’s identity, he has already been expelled by his family, so he’s just an ordinary person. What’s the point of staying married to him?”
Elle, who was still wearing the stained dress and was now seated cross-legged, chuckled.
She said, “Exactly, just divorce him as soon as you can. I heard that there are gangsters out to deal with Jordan, and they’re hunting him down too. You should divorce him lest the Camdens get implicated.”
Drew smiled and said, “Since Hailey dares to mention divorce, she must have someone in mind to marry next. In this case, what’s the point of hesitating? Just get a divorce.”
Diana looked at Hailey and asked, “Have you chosen your next husband?”
Hailey looked somewhat embarrassed and awkward because she didn’t have the cheek to admit it in front of everyone.
Hailey was still Jordan’s wife, so if she admitted to choosing someone for her next husband, she would be indirectly admitting that she had cheated again on Jordan.
After a moment of thought, Hailey said, “There’s a guy who has been courting me, but I haven’t agreed to be with him.”
“Oh, is that so? Who is he? What’s his family background like? Is he from Orlando too?” Diana asked curiously.
Hailey shook her head and said, “He’s from New York, and his family runs a logistics business. His grandfather, Arthur Huxley, is the owner of Breezy Express.”
“What? He is the grandson of Mr. Huxley?”
Diana was shocked. All business owners knew who Arthur Huxley was!
Breezy Express was a household name too!
Sylvie grinned widely and said, “Wow, my daughter is fortunate. Now that Jordan has become a nobody, Hailey has another option. I know all about the Huxleys. They’re worth billions of dollars.”
“My silly daughter, since he fancies you, you should accept him. Anyway, you won’t have a future with Jordan Steele.”
At this moment, Elle even started praising Hailey for the sake of inciting Hailey to divorce Jordan.
“Oh my God, Hailey is really amazing, huh? I’ve always dreamed of marrying into the Huxley family. If you don’t want to accept him, let me have him instead!”
Hailey rolled her eyes at Elle smugly. She obviously wouldn’t let Elle have Cayden.
Drew laughed and said, “It must be Cayden Huxley, right? Grandma, I heard that that guy is tall, handsome, and has a great personality. Hailey is fortunate.”
“But I’ve also heard that he’s Tyler Collins’s cousin. He’s the one who got into a fight with Jordan, isn’t he? Jordan has broken his fingers, and he’s now in the hospital. Haha.”
Diana had also heard about the fight that Jordan got into, but he hadn’t had the time to understand the specific details of the situation.
“Jordan got into a fight with Arthur Huxley’s grandson? Did Jordan break his fingers?” Diana asked with a look of worry.
Hailey nodded.
Diana said worriedly, “According to my understanding, Arthur Huxley is definitely not a magnanimous person. He definitely wouldn’t spare Jordan if he knew that his grandson’s fingers had been broken.”
“Maybe then he will take the Camdens along with him and punish them together!”
“Sylvie, you’re right, things are different now, and we can’t obey your father-in-law’s wishes anymore.”
“Hailey, since Cayden likes you while Jordan doesn’t know how to behave himself and created such a huge trouble, it’s not our fault for being ruthless to him.”
“I approve of your divorce!”
With Diana’s consent, Hailey could go to the lawyer’s office to file for a divorce with Jordan whenever she wanted.
Benedict and Sylvie both heaved a sigh of relief.
Elle smiled and thought to herself gleefully, ‘Hehe, that idiot Hailey Camden is finally going to divorce Jordan. Jordan will be mine soon!”
After learning that Jordan was the president of Ace Corporation and that she was originally supposed to marry him, Elle imagined what life would’ve been like if she had married him then.
She loved chasing missed chances and swore that she would win Jordan’s heart.
Although Hailey was glad to have gotten Diana’s approval for a divorce, she felt like she was put in a tough spot.
“Grandma, I had to work so hard to get Jordan back and convince him to reconcile with me, and yet, I’m initiating divorce as soon as something bad has happened to him. I really can’t bring myself to do it.”
Hailey also felt that it was too mercenary and heartless of her to get a divorce from Jordan as soon as he got disowned by his family.
Sylvie said, “What’s wrong with that? He can’t blame others for his own incompetence. If you can’t bring yourself to talk to him about it, let me do it!”
Diana extended her hand and said, “Don’t do that. Jordan has helped us a lot recently and clinched many business deals for us. He also helped the Camdens advance from a second-tier family to a first-tier family.”
“Let’s not be too cruel to him and wait another month. Initiate the divorce with him in a month!”
