As Hailey said that, Jordan pretended to be in a loving marriage with Hailey too.

“Oh, alright.”

Lily assented incessantly with a smile.

Hailey continued, “Grandaunt Lily, I have another piece of good news for you. Jordan doesn’t come from an ordinary family but a prestigious one! They are worth hundreds of billions! He’s now the president of a corporation too!”

At this point, Jordan stared at Lily’s facial expression in a bid to see if she would be shocked.

Lily smiled even more radiantly, but she didn’t seem particularly shocked.

Instead, she said repeatedly, “Great! Great! That’s wonderful!”

Lily said, “My children are all doing well… Ahem… The only one I’ve been worried about…”

Lily coughed a few times and drank some water before continuing to speak.

“Hailey has been worrying me the most. You must get along well with Jordan, or else… I won’t be able to face my brother when I meet him in heaven…”

Although Lily didn’t reveal that she had long known about Jordan’s identity, Jordan could vaguely sense that she was aware of the truth.

They stopped talking to Lily because it was difficult for her to speak.

In fact, it was good enough that they could meet one last time before she passed.

It was already late at night. When they left Lily’s room, Devon asked, “Mr. Steele, Hailey, are you two going to stay here or at a hotel? I’ve arranged a room for you in both places.”

Lily lived in a large bungalow with several guest houses.

Jordan pointed in the direction of Lily’s room and asked, “What did the doctor say?”
