Revenge Against My Ex-husband novel Chapter 22

Back in Jordan's company, Jordan was sitting in his office and having a fit of temper with a stern face. Documents were scattered all over the floor.

David lowered his head and stood still without saying a word. Irene quickly picked up and organized the documents and put them in front of Jordan. Jordan wiped the anger off his face upon seeing Irene. "Call Keaton, the guy who is in charge of city construction!"

"Okay!" Irene immediately picked up the phone and called Keaton.

She reported to Jordan after the call, "Mr. Reed, Keaton agreed!"

"Agreed? Haha, that old fox!"

Jordan sneered with a weary look in his eyes. It was said that Keaton from the City Construction Bureau was a tough nut. As long as he was on board, everything would be easy to handle.

However, Edric must have also thought of whatever Jordan could think of. Furthermore, Edric had one more card to play -- Steven Cook. Jordan's chances of winning were slim if Secretary Cook weighed in. 

This made things quite tricky!

Irene glanced at Jordan and found that a rare, serious look replaced his usually playful countenance. It seemed that this rich boy was in trouble.

But she didn't know what kind of trouble it was. Although she was an Executive Assistant, she was not that kind of Executive Assistant. She was only responsible for reminding Jordan of his daily schedule, serving him tea, preparing food, clothing, and accommodation for business trips, just like a nanny. Jordan usually talked about work with another Executive Assistant, David.

Even though Jordan never asked her to stay away, she always stepped out tactfully whenever she saw David opened the door. Nathan made it clear before she came that she was only responsible for his daily schedule. She shouldn't inquire about anything else. 

David and Jordan talked for the whole afternoon behind the closed door. The door finally opened when it was time to get off work. Irene picked up her bag and notified Jordan that she was about to leave.

To her surprise, Jordan called to stop her, "David has something to do. I need you to go the dinner with me tonight."

Jordan was treating some officials to dinner at the best hotel in San Fetillo. He also invited some beautiful women to keep the guests company. The guests were coaxed into drinking by the pretty girls, their faces ruddy and glowing. 

The party didn't stop after dinner. They went to After Dark, the largest nightclub in San Fetillo, where Irene saw Lily in front of the door. 

Lily had changed her clothes. She got off the luxury car with a couple of rich young ladies with a charming smile on her face. 

Lily's eyes glittered when she saw Irene. She immediately went to a quiet corner and called Deborah, "Mom, I just saw Irene. She was with a group of men in After Dark! Edric is here tonight, too. I think she knew Edric is coming and deliberately came here to seduce him!"

"Really? This little b*tch is so shameless. Since she chose the hard way, let's ruin her reputation tonight!" Deborah sneered.

"Mom, what are you going to do?"

"Aren't you partying with people tonight? I heard that Randy Smith is also here, right?"

"Yes."

"Randy is a lecherous man who can't move whenever he sees a beautiful woman. With that b*tch's pretty face, he will never let her slide by. You need to figure out a way to make Randy make a move on her." 

Lily's eyes lit up upon hearing Deborah's idea. Randy was a infamous womanizer and fooled around with girls everywhere. Even if something happened tonight, no one could trace it back to Lily and Deborah. Deborah was truly artful and experienced. 

Irene did not know that the vicious mother-and-daughter duo was going to attack her. She followed Jordan and the others into a luxury box in After Dark.

Jordan was lavish with his hospitality. He paid for all the gorgeous ladies in After Dark. The guests enjoyed the nice wine and beautiful women. 

The atmosphere in the box was lively and they opened countless bottles of wine. David also joined them later at night. Since Jordan was tipsy from dinner, David was now in charge of persuading the guests to drink more.
