Revenge Against My Ex-husband novel Chapter 34

Jordan's grandfather soon heard about his son going on a blind date show to pursue a divorced single mother. He called Jordan from abroad, "Kid, haven't you gone too far recently?"

"You even care about this kind of thing now? Don't you have too much free time?" Jordan retorted.

"Don't dip your pen in the company ink. You need to remember that!" Jordan's grandfather snorted.

"That's only because their ink is not good enough!" Jordan refuted.

"So this is for real?" The old man detected the undertone of Jordan's reply. "I'm warning you. My bottom line is that I might be able to accept a woman you love who doesn't have a similar background. But I won't even open a discussion with you if she is a divorced single mother!"

"What if the child is mine?" Jordan said casually.

"The child is yours?" Jordan's grandfather was stunned. His grandson was an infamous womanizer who might actually be the child's father. "If it was really your son, I may allow it!"

Jordan laughed and said, "Then I'll thank you first, grandpa!"

Jordan hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair. How could he be so troubled if it were his child? His grandfather was a smart man. Even though he said so now, he might not accept Irene. After all, it was not easy to fool the old man and convince him the child was Jordan's.

Jordan rubbed his forehead. "This woman seemed to have rooted in my heart. What should I do?"

The story about Jordan's appearance on the blind date show was printed on a newspaper in front of Edric, who had been gloomy and silent the whole morning. He was never interested in entertainment news, but he glanced at the paper subconsciously when he saw Jordan's name on it.

He felt chest congestion once he started reading. "This playboy really knows how to court a woman. He even went on that kind of a show without regard for his identity and status."

Although Jordan's attempt failed, it still made Edric feel heavy-hearted, as if a boulder was sitting on his chest.

He wasn't convinced that Irene would really go on the show to find a man. Nor did he believe that Irene was a single mother. Kinsey was the producer of the show. It was obvious that Kinsey only pulled Irene there to make up the numbers.

And there was only one reason why Irene agreed to attend the show: she was short of money!

It was hard to believe that a woman who didn't hesitate to divorce a billionaire and left without a penny would be short of money. But Irene really was such a person.

She would rather earn her own money with her own hands than lower her head and stoop to compromise. She must have had a hard life in the past three years.

Edric kicked her out, left her penniless, and even made sure she couldn't find a job. He thought that he could force her to come back to him eventually if he blocked her ways. But he never expected that Irene just went down the hard path and never looked back, no matter what he did. 

No! It was not that she had never turned back before. She would only do it for the person she chose, like Nathan.

She could go to beg Nathan's mother to approve her and Nathan. But she would never lower her head to Edric's mother for him.

She was willing to turn back for Nathan but would never do so for Edric.

This was the difference. Edric felt heartbroken whenever he was reminded of the difference between him and Nathan. People's feelings could get hurt. But Irene didn't seem to acknowledge that.

She was married to Edric for three years. It was said that the love between a wife and a husband should last forever. However, their five-year relationship wasn't a match for the few months she spent with Nathan!

Edric smiled bitterly. Was he too stubborn and too stupid? Or was Irene too cruel? Edric grabbed the newspaper on the table and slowly crumpled it into a ball. "Irene, I don't believe that your heart is made of stone. Even if it is made of stone, I will find a way to warm it up!

This time, I won't let you disappear in front of me again! I swear!

The interview was released two days later. Irene received a call from Kinsey when she was having dinner at home. "Your interview will be on tonight. Don't forget to watch it."

Irene was busy as a bee and had no time for TV. She didn't take the interview seriously, but it didn't mean that others didn't either.

The blind date show was extremely popular in San Fetillo because of Jordan's participation. Everyone had been talking and gossiping about the show during their free time.

The online press also followed the show closely and reported it on the front page all day long.
