Jordan and Hailey were from two different worlds. If not for the training mission arranged by his family, the two of them would never have been together.

Rowan understood Jordan’s feelings. “Alright, I agree. I’ll tell Jesse later.”

“Thank you, Dad,” Jordan said.

A moment later, Jordan asked suddenly, “Dad, can I ask you a question?”

Rowan nodded. “Go ahead.”

Jordan continued. “Logically speaking, the Steele family head position should be passed down from one generation to the next. Grandpa should have passed it to you first, and then you can pass it on to me or Jesse. Why did Grandpa skip you? I can see that your relationship with Grandpa is quite good. Moreover, you’ve always been quite obedient to Grandpa. You’ve also done quite well under Grandpa’s arrangements. You are not estranged from him at all.

“Besides, in terms of ability, I don’t think you are inferior to us.”

Rowan was not a fool. Anyone could tell he was a capable man so Jordan could not understand why Charleston did not favor him.

At Rowan’s current age, he was the most suitable candidate to be the head of the Steele family. He would have more gravitas when dealing with other families.

Rowan smiled. “Thank you for your recognition, child. However, I’m not interested in being the head of the Steele family. I mentioned this to Grandpa many years ago. I told him that the head of the family should be directly passed onto your generation.”

“Huh? Why? Dad, why don’t you have the fighting spirit? Did something happen to you?” Jordan asked curiously.

Rowan sighed. “Many years ago, when your uncle Randall was still alive, the two of us fought fiercely over who would be the successor. Our battles were a hundred times more intense than those between you and your brothers. However, later on, he died because of me. I’ve always felt guilty and believed that I had let him down. Therefore, I swore not to fight for power anymore and gave up the position of the head of the Steele family.

When I was young, I was even more popular than Jamie. I was also a playboy. I still remember that I once asked the Deity to teach me a trick to pick up girls. It’s the ‘voodoo’ technique that you recently learned. Sigh, now that I
