Everyone was shocked!
Martin, who had always been calm and collected, even stood up from his seat slowly and asked, “What did you say?”
Jordan looked at Lauren with devotion. He then said loudly to the Howards, “I said that I want to marry Lauren!”
After investigating in secret during this period of time, Jordan had already thought it through clearly. If he wanted to know Victoria’s whereabouts, he had to marry Lauren, and only then could he infiltrate the Howards and unravel the truth about Victoria’s disappearance.
There was no way that Jordan was going to betray Victoria and on the contrary, he was marrying Lauren for Victoria’s sake!
It may not be fair to Lauren but Jordan had no other choice now!
Besides, after going through so much with Lauren during this period, he had indeed gotten a better impression of her.
On the other hand, Lauren had long been looking forward to being in a relationship with Jordan!
A smile appeared on Martin’s old face because Jordan had always been a more preferable candidate for being his grandson-in-law than Chris!
The Steeles were far more powerful than the Hanks, and the Steeles had been harboring a secret that Martin longed to know. If anything, he had always wanted to use Lauren to get close to the Steeles and then find out all the treasures and secrets that he had!
Martin said to Jordan, “Jordan Steele, I don’t like jokes. You must take responsibility for what you have said!”
