Chapter 520 - Deadman’s Island!
The Abandoned Husband Dominates
Even Lauren didnât realize that she might really be âillâ.
She usually respected Jesse a lot as he treated her very well. Lauren wouldnât dare to talk back to him.
However, if Laurenâs husband was involved, no matter who it was, she would not allow anyone to insult her Jordan.
Seeing this, Jesse smiled. âLauren, no wonder you donât want to cure your illness. I guess itâs because of Victoria?â
Lauren was stunned. She didnât expect Jesse to suddenly mention Victoria. âWhat does it have to do with Victoria?â
Jesse said, âI received news that Jordan has found Victoriaâs whereabouts. I believe they will meet soon. With their past relationship, they will definitely be together again. By then, Jordan will make a choice between you and Victoria.
âYouâre ill. You canât have sex with other men in this life, so Jordan will either dump Victoria or accept the two of you. No matter what, Jordan would never abandon you. Hehe, as expected of a Howard family woman. You are really smart and resourceful!â
Jesse was trying to incite Lauren.
As expected, Lauren fell for his instigation. She explained immediately, âI never thought of that! I⦠I want to compete fairly with Victoria. I can accept whoever Jordan chooses.â
Jesse smiled. âCompete fairly? How can it be fair when you have this illness? You know that Jordan is soft-hearted and that he wouldnât leave you if he knew that you wonât have a good life without him. Lauren, your actions are too despicable!â
Lauren stuttered. âIâ¦â
She found herself rendered speechless! Thatâs right. Lauren had this illness. With Jordanâs upright good character, he would never abandon her in this way. Even if Jordan wanted to choose Victoria, he would not part with her because he would pity Lauren for her illness.
However, once Lauren was cured of this illness, she could be tempted by the outside world like an ordinary womanâ¦
âCongratulations, Sister-in-law. Youâre now firmly sitting on the throne. I believe that no matter what happens between Jordan and Victoria, you will always be the daughter-in-law of the Steele family.â
With that, Jesse sneered and walked away.
Jesseâs words made Lauren feel very upset. She was from the capital and had her pride. She would never allow herself to be pitied by others.
âAlright, I agree to the treatment!â She suddenly burst out.
Jesse smiled. âLauren, you have to think this through carefully. After youâre cured, Jordan wonât be the only man in the world who can attract you and make you fall head over heels for him. Donât accuse me of forcing you to treat your illness when Jordan comes back. As his elder brother, I will be seen as guilty of a heinous crime.â
Only then did Lauren realize how despicable Jesse was. He was clearly the one who kept inciting her to treat her illness, but after she agreed to do so, he immediately turned around to claim that he had nothing to do with this matter.
Lauren said stubbornly, âIâve thought it through. I want to compete fairly with Victoria. I canât let Jordan choose me just because he pities me. Jesse, please invite Uncle Hutton and his daughter back.â
A sinister smile crossed Jesseâs lips.
In the Atlantic Ocean, along a major European flight path to Canada.
Jordanâs Zephyr Three was flying stealthily towards Deadmanâs Island.
Dragon said, âMaster, we will reach Deadmanâs Island in three minutes.â
Jordan nodded. They were finally here. He could finally meet Jamie and ask him the truth. Finally⦠he could see Victoria!
âBoss, there are many sunken ships in the sea! And there are signs of life!â Tim reported.
Zephyr Three had the most advanced technology. It could detect all living things nearby. Jordan said, âThis is the âAtlantic Ocean Graveyardâ. Over the past few hundred years, countless ships have sunk here. However, most of them have already sunk to the bottom of the sea. Zephyr Three shouldnât be able to detect them. So⦠these sunken ships should be recent ones!â
Dragonâs eyes lit up as he looked at the island. âMaster, looks like someone came to look for Mr. Jamie before us.â
Zephyr Three landed on Deadmanâs Island.
Judging by the many planes and corpses here, it meant that a battle had just occurred here!
Tim trembled in fear. âMr. Jordan, can I not go down? There are so many dead people. I⦠Iâm afraid.â
Tim was different from Salvatore. Salvatore was originally a gangster who relied on fighting to survive. On the other hand, Tim was originally Victoriaâs driver. He was quite smart, but his combat strength was very weak.
Jordan said, âItâs useless for you to follow me anyway. Just stay here and guard the plane.â Tim hurriedly thanked him. âThank you, Mr. Jordan!â
Jordan instructed, âThe rest of you, follow me! Leave ten people behind to guard the plane.â âYes!â
Dragon, Salvatore and 200 of Dragonâs men all alighted. As soon as Jordan stepped onto the beach of Deadmanâs Island and inhaled the air, he could not resist covering his nose.
The air here smelled very strange and unpleasant. Moreover, there were many corpses on the ground, and the smell of blood was very strong.
âIt must be Phoenix.â Dragon looked at the corpses on the ground.
Salvatore was also a little afraid. âPhoenix is really ruthless. Mr. Jordan, I wonder if he will be so cruel to us?â
Jordan stated firmly. âWould he dare?â
If Phoenix dared to offend Jordan, who was superior in status to him, there would probably be no place for him in this world!
Jordan added, âAlthough he wonât dare to do anything to me, heâll definitely kill you guys. Salvatore, be careful.â
Salvatore nodded vigorously.
âEmily, whereâs the villa?â Jordan asked.
Emily pointed at a high area. âOn that mountain.â Everyone approached cautiously. 10 minutes later, they arrived at the spot but found nothing âWhat villa? Itâs all deserted. Thereâs not even a bird. Ms. Emily, did you remember wrongly?â.
Salvatore looked around.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Emily scratched her head. âEh, thatâs not right. The last time I came, the villa was here. Iâm not lying!â Dragon said, âIt might be a mobile villa. If so, they would have moved the villa elsewhere. Thatâs not surprising. Letâs continue our search.â
âWait!â Jordan suddenly stopped them.
âWhatâs the matter?â.
Jordan frowned. âWe didnât see any of my brotherâs men along the way. Somethingâs not right. Shit, weâve fallen into a trap! Call Tim immediately!â
Jordan turned back as he spoke.
Salvatore called, but no one answered. âMr. Jordan, Tim isnât answering. Did something happen?â
Jordan said, âJamie wants to snatch my Zephyr Three. Everyone, we have to go back immediately!â
