Jordan was shocked. He didn’t expect the beautiful Miss Monroe to react so hysterically to a casual question! He hurriedly explained, “No, he didn’t send me any pictures. I haven’t seen any pictures of you at all!”
Miss Monroe continued to holler, “Bullshit! How did you know I had his name tattooed on my body if you hadn’t seen any picture:
“Lwas purely guessing out of curiosity.” Jordan was helpless for a while.
Miss Monroe said, “Impossible! You must have looked at my photos! Quickly tell me where your family lives. I’m going to your place right now to inform your wife about this!”
Jordan hurriedly hung up the phone before heaving a long sigh of relief.
He merely recalled what Jamie said when he found Jamie’s name on some cigarettes in Dr. Gale’s home a few days ago. Jamie would mark all his cigarettes and women with his name.
“It seems that Jamie still hasn’t kicked his habit after all these years. That cigarette does belong to him.”
Jordan shook his head and prayed that he would not run into Miss Monroe by chance one day. Otherwise, he would be in deep trouble.
After that, Jordan tapped on the phone number belonging to Keith that Miss Monroe had sent him before making the call.
“Hello, who’s speaking?”
The call was quickly picked up. Although it was nighttime, there seemed to be music playing. It was a classic English song named “It Never Rains In Southern California’.
Listening to the joyful music and getting reminded of Keith, Jordan thought that this man in his sixties should still be singing and dancing at this moment.
Perhaps, he was also enjoying the company of a woman younger than Lauren.
“Hello, I’m Jordan Steele.”
Jordan said concisely and straightforwardly.
Keith froze for a moment and asked, “Which Jordan Steele?”
“Jordan of the Steele family!”
“The Steeles! Are Jesse and Jamie related to you?”
Jordan was instantly surprised that Keith knew both Jesse and Jamie. Both Jesse and Jamie had been on a business trial for years.
At this moment, Chelsea and Maggie were already waiting in the private room.
Upon sight of Chelsea, Jordan discovered that she appeared even harsher and more difficult to get along with than she seemed to be in the photos of her on the Internet. At this moment, Chelsea was also glaring at him in a rather unfriendly manner.
Just as Jordan was about to walk in, Colton suddenly came out of the private room next door!
“Hey, aren’t you the esteemed Mr. Steele of J Films!?! Guys, quickly come over to take a look. Lauren’s husband, the bigwig of the entertainment industry is here too.”
Colton exclaimed at the room and soon, seven or eight people came out. They weren’t outsiders but the same few men and women who attended the party yesterday.
Colton walked over and deliberately pretended to be curious. “Mr. Steele, you’re here to eat too?”
He walked to the private room and exclaimed in surprise when he saw Maggie who was inside. “Maggie! What a coincidence!”
“You must be Ms. Adams of Dreams Entertainment, right?” Colton took the initiative to walk over and greeted Chelsea.
Chelsea also smiled and said, “You are Maggie’s cousin, right? I’m really glad to meet you. Sit down and have some tea.”
Colton didn’t stand on ceremony either. “Friends, since Ms. Adams does not mind, we will join you for a little while. We’ll leave immediately after having a cup of tea.”
Lauren’s classmates all entered that private room.
Jordan stood in place and humphed coldly.
‘A coincidence? Who do you think you’re fooling!?!”
Colton must have known the time and place that Chelsea had agreed upon. In fact, he was the one who told Chelsea about Jordan! These people were obviously there to watch him make a fool of himself!
Jordan looked at Colton and the others. “Colton, you guys are really close, huh? You just had a classmates’ reunion last night and you’re getting together again this afternoon.”
In response, Colton said, “It’s not that we didn’t have fun last night. It just happens that our workplaces are nearby so we’re having lunch together here. Mr. Steele, rest assured, we’ll just have a cup of tea and leave. We won’t hinder you. You can go ahead and do what you need to.”
Colton gestured for them to come over.
Jordan humphed coldly and ignored them. He entered, looked at Chelsea, and called out, “Ms. Adams.”
To his surprise, Chelsea said sarcastically, “Hey, I’m shocked.. I thought you’d call me Chelsea or Chels!”
