Since Victoria had a crush on Jordan, she was concerned that Jordan and Hailey’s baby would be aborted because it was related to whether or not they would still be involved in the future.

Jordan answered truthfully, “I’ve talked to Hailey about this. She will give birth to the baby, but she said that she wants to raise the child. I’ll fight with her for custody when the time comes.”

Usually, women would be granted custody of the child after a divorce, so Victoria didn’t know why Jordan insisted on having the custody instead. Perhaps, he really likes children, she thought.

Victoria said gently, “Actually, I really like children too. Hailey may have an awful personality, but she’s pretty, so your child must be very good-looking too.”

“It must be interesting to raise a beautiful child.”

Victoria gazed at Jordan with tender affection. She was obviously trying to tell Jordan that she was willing to become his child’s stepmother and raise his child with him!

Jordan did not expect Victoria to be so magnanimous, but he felt somewhat awkward.

“Uh… I want custody of the child, not because I’m going to raise him or her but because my mother, who’s in Australia, would like to raise the child.”

Actually, it was because the Steeles wanted to be in charge of disciplining the child and groom him or her into a qualified heir like Jordan.

However, Jordan could not tell Victoria the truth for the time being.

Victoria was instantly overjoyed to hear that Jordan’s mother wanted to have custody of the child.

Which woman would willingly volunteer to have a stepchild?

Victoria said happily, “Oh, so it’s Mrs. Steele wants to raise the child. The environment in Australia is great. Life is relatively more peaceful there. It’s a good idea to let your child live with her there.”

Now that the problem of Jordan’s child had been solved, Victoria could talk to Jordan about their relationship.

Victoria suddenly held Jordan’s hand and asked while she was tipsy, “Jordan, regarding what I said to you at the restaurant just now. What… do you think?”

Jordan suddenly felt his hand getting a little hot, and he was at a loss for what to do. “What… What do you mean?”
