Jordan knew everything about Victoria’s love life.
She only had one man, Russell, before Jordan.
However, now that he was asking in the identity of an otherworldly expert, would she give a different answer?
Victoria was not a woman who was good at lying, and her answer did not disappoint Jordan.
Taking in a puff of her cigarette, she smiled. “If I said that I’ve never fallen in love before, would you believe me?”
Jordan stroked his fake beard thoughtfully.
Victoria said, “I’m already 30 years old this year, but I don’t think I’ve ever been in a proper relationship in my life. I admit that I had a man when I was 20 years old. I was with him for three years and left him at 23. For seven whole years, I didn’t even hold hands with anyone of the opposite sex.”
Jordan knew that the man Victoria was talking about was Russell. When Victoria first confessed her feelings to Jordan, she had told him everything.
In the end, Victoria was a frank and direct woman. She didn’t like to hide things. It was better to make things clear before they got together. This way was much better than waiting for Jordan to find out only after they got together, and end up breaking up because he couldn’t accept it.
Victoria was also a smart woman. She knew that no secret could remain hidden forever. Moreover, Russell was a big shot.
It was better that she made things clear right from the start so that if Jordan did mind, they should not begin a relationship.
It was better than finding out only after they had truly fallen in love. Hearts would be broken and lead to more suffering.
Jordan said, “Yes, when I touched your palm previously, I could already tell that you haven’t had any recent romantic liaisons. However, good fortune can follow after a period of low luck. You’ve been single for a full seven years. Your destined one is about to appear.”
Victoria was delighted. “Really? What does that person look like? What does he do?”
Jordan asked, “Perhaps that person may have already appeared in your life recently. Have you met anyone you like in recent times?”
Victoria shook her head. “I only see fat bosses all day, or employees who don’t even dare to raise their heads when they see me. I don’t like them… Ah, I did meet a young man at a birthday banquet just now. I quite like him…”
Jordan was very happy. He knew that Victoria was talking about him.
‘Hehe, I didn’t expect Victoria to fall in love with me at first sight!’
To be honest, Jordan didn’t fall in love with Victoria at first sight. Perhaps it was because he was still very affected by Hailey’s cheating at that time. When they first met, he only thought that Victoria was beautiful.
Jordan quickly said, “Tell me your date and time of birth!”
Victoria told him. Jordan pretended to divine and said happily, “This year, you will obtain the love you have been looking forward to for a long time. Moreover, your luck in romance begins today. The young man you mentioned will very likely be the man whom you will spend the rest of your life with!”
Victoria opened her mouth wide. “Huh? Is that true? But that young man rejected me today. Also, all the big business bosses in Orlando have blacklisted him. I think he will leave Orlando immediately and we’ll never have the chance to meet again.”
Jordan chuckled. “Since he’s the man you’re destined to be with, how can you not meet him? I predict that you’ll meet him soon. It might be tomorrow. And the next time you meet him, he might give you a big surprise!”
Tomorrow morning, when Victoria went to the office, she would meet Jordan and find out his true identity.
Jordan remembered that when she saw him in the President’s office, she was so shocked that she had knelt down on the spot.
After the two of them got together, Jordan asked Victoria if she felt embarrassed to have fallen to her knees before him.
Victoria replied, “No. Anyway, as your woman, I would have to kneel every night. It’s just a matter of time.”
Being able to conquer such a proud businesswoman made Jordan feel a sense of accomplishment!
“Really? Will I meet Jordan again? I’m really looking forward to it.”
Victoria and Jordan grew increasingly comfortable with each other. Victoria loved listening to Jordan talk. No matter what their conversation was about, she enjoyed it.
It was as if she was chatting with her father.
The two of them chatted until the sky turned dark. At night, Victoria still felt unsatisfied. She felt too comfortable talking to this old man. Not only did his voice sound very soothing, she felt that this old man understood her very well.
Moreover, when the old man spoke to her, his tone was extremely gentle, as if he was protecting his child or lover.
Victoria asked him to stay. “Sir, where do you live? Is it far from here? Is it convenient for you to have dinner here? I can prepare a few dishes to thank you for your help today.”
It had been a long time since Jordan had eaten Victoria’s food. The last time he had a chance to eat her food, it had been ruined by that b*tch, Hailey.
Jordan responded. “I’m a blind man and don’t have a fixed place of residence. I might sleep under the bridge tonight and on the streets tomorrow. I do wish to try your cooking.”
Victoria said, “Oh my god, an otherworldly expert like you actually doesn’t have a place to stay? Why don’t you stay here with me for the time being?”
“Stay with you?”
Of course Jordan wanted to but he did not say that.
“You’re a single woman and I’m a man. It won’t be inappropriate for me to stay with you, right?”
Victoria said, “What’s so inappropriate about that? You can’t see anything even if I don’t close the door while taking a shower. Sir, please stay. I have many things I want to ask you.”
With that, Victoria went to the kitchen to cook.
It was still the same delicious dishes. The two of them even drank wine, just like in the past. As Jordan drank and ate Victoria’s food, his heart was filled with emotions.
“No wonder Rong Huangde traveled back in time whenever he could. I’m afraid it’s not just for exploring the secrets of the Handley family. Going back in time, I can meet people I can no longer see in the present, and do things I failed to do. This feeling is too addictive.”
Unwittingly, Victoria got a little drunk. Her face was red as she caressed her forehead with her fair hand and smiled.
“Sir, your alcohol tolerance is really good. I’m a little drunk…”
Jordan looked at the bottles of red wine in front of him and realized that they had already drunk a lot.
Jordan’s alcohol tolerance had always been good. Coupled with the fact that he had been injected with the Mirakuru serum, drinking red wine to him was like drinking water.
Victoria’s alcohol tolerance was already considered good among women. But she couldn’t take it anymore.
“Oh, I’m drunk too. I’m so happy today that I drank a little too much. It’s getting late. You still have to work tomorrow morning. Why don’t you rest early?” Jordan said.
“Okay, okay. I’ll sleep after taking a shower. Um, why don’t you shower first?” Victoria offered politely.
Still playing his character, Jordan said, “You know that I’m blind. Without anyone to help me, I can’t wash on my own.”
