The Abandoned Husband Dominates

Lauren’s body stiffened, and she looked at Jordan with a dumbfounded expression. “An act? What do you mean by that?”

Jordan humphed coldly and asked, “What do I mean? Trust you to have the cheek to ask me what I mean.”

“You knew since a long time ago that Victoria got abducted by the Howards and her current whereabouts. Otherwise, how can you be certain that she’s completely fine and how do you know so much about her?”

“Victoria was abducted by the Howards!”

Lauren looked at Jordan with an innocent expression on her face. “Jordan, trust me, I really don’t know where Victoria is, and I don’t know if she was abducted by my family or not, but I believe m grandfather and brother won’t lie to me.”

“Believe you? Why should I believe you when you’re a Howard?” Jordan snapped hostilely.

Lauren’s beauty was way too perfect, and she was completely flawless, just like Hailey.

Most of the gorgeous women whom Jordan knew were liars, so he somewhat assumed that Lauren was one too.

He thought Lauren was just better at hiding it.

Lauren defended herself and in a moment of panic, she grabbed Jordan’s sleeve and said, “Jordan, I know you’re very worried about Victoria but I really don’t know where she is now. Why would I lie to you?”

Jordan shook Lauren off and said, “Why? Well, because you want to marry me and be the daughter-in-law of the Steeles! The Howards have always coveted our family’s international connections, and once you marry me, the Howards will be invincible locally and abroad!”

Lauren was feeling really awkward, and of course, she wouldn’t admit to it. “I don’t want to marry you…”

Jordan said coldly, “You should know best whether you want to or not! Lauren Howard, I can tell you clearly today that Victoria Clarke is the only person I will marry, so don’t even think about becoming my woman! I won’t consider letting you be my mistress either!”

Lauren immediately looked ashamed when she heard those words, which were the most humiliating thing she had ever heard in her life!
