Jordan hadn’t had the time to investigate Russell.

However, he was rather powerful ten years ago, and now, he had become the richest man in Houston. He must be quite a capable person.

Many women tend to admire competent men like him very much.

Jordan said, “When your family was going through the toughest time ten years ago, he stood forth to help you. Now that you’re at rock bottom and at your wits’ end, he has appeared again.”

“You must think he’s a great savior of your life, huh?”

Jordan’s words were full of jealousy, but he was no longer in any place to be upset at Victoria.

Victoria could tell that Jordan was jealous.

She said in a tender voice, “I’m indeed very grateful to him for all the help that he has given me in the past ten years.”

“If it wasn’t for him, I might have just married a random person and make do with a monthly salary of a couple of thousands of dollars. I’d probably be squeezing my way into the subway to work every day and go home to a long list of household chores to do, like doing the laundry, cooking, and taking care of my kids. I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet you.”

“Although I was once his lover for three years, he feels like a complete stranger to me now, and I don’t feel anything for him at all.”

Jordan asked, “Really?”

Victoria exclaimed with a smile, “Of course. He’s so old, and his hair is all white now. He’ll probably go bald in another two years or so. He can’t compare to you at all. How can I fall for anyone else when I have such a handsome boyfriend!?!”

“Silly Honey, don’t be jealous anymore, okay?”

Victoria started coaxing Jordan like a little girl.

In fact, Jordan had also stopped being angry long ago because the outcome he had expected was far more severe than the truth.

Jordan was very confident in his physical appearance because he was younger, fitter, and much more handsome than Russell!
