You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 121

"You're asking me what I mean? I've already made a three-year commitment to Joanne. If she still insists on marrying me after three years of our engagement, I will marry her, but you have to make it clear to Joanne that your current life is an exact portrayal of her future!" After saying that, Jordan left right away.

Lydia was frozen on the spot! She knew best what kind of life she had experienced for all these years. It was difficult to think of a young and beautiful woman like Joanne wasting away her youth, just like Lydia. Malcolm was truly scum. Not only did he abandon his child, but he had also passed on the stupid, useless trait of blind faithfulness to Jordan she had painstakingly raised.

Jordan angrily left Lydia's yard and returned to the mansion. As he was in a bad mood, he did not go and see Pedro. Instead, he went straight to the airport, ready to depart for San Fetillo. On the way, he suddenly recalled something - according to Lydia, Myra was meeting someone in the restaurant before Myra left there in tears. In her sadness, she had run out onto the road and met with that fatal accident. His anger had clouded his thoughts; it completely slipped his mind to ask her who Myra was meeting on that fateful day.

Jordan had a nagging suspicion about it, therefore he turned back and went to the Reed family once more. When Lydia heard that Jordan went straight to the airport after leaving, she was furious. However, she did not expect Jordan to return to the residence once more. Surprised, Lydia asked him, "Why are you back here again?"

"Mom, do you know who Myra went to meet?" Jordan asked.

Lydia had not considered the possibility that Jordan returned was to ask more about Myra. Lydia's expression darkened; she turned her face away.

"Mom, please tell me!" Jordan begged.

"I don't know," Lydia said.

"Is that true?" Jordan asked again.

Seeing Jordan's expression, Lydia's tone softened. "On that day, I glanced inside the private room when the door was opened. It was a very beautiful woman who met with Myra."

A very beautiful woman? Jordan thought of Thomas' words. Thomas had said that Myra's death was not because of Lydia, but it was in fact caused by Steven cheating on Myra and having an illegitimate daughter with his lover. Was it Deborah who met Myra, then?

He picked up his phone and called David. "Get a picture of Mrs. Cook and send it to me immediately."

David immediately booted up the computer and searched for a photo of Deborah before he sent it to Jordan's phone. Jordan gave Deborah's photo to Lydia to have a look, but Lydia could not confirm it. She said, "There's some similarity. I only got to take a brief glance at her that day before I went after Myra. I can't say for sure."

Although Lydia was hesitant to give an affirmative answer, Jordan already had a hunch that Deborah must have met with Myra. Myra must be going to expose Deborah's secret love affair with Steven.

Who could possibly accept the fact that their own best friend was having an affair with their husband? It was no wonder that Myra, upon hearing that, ran out in sorrow and unfortunately got into a car accident.

The real culprit behind that incident was Deborah, and only Deborah and Lily had benefited from this accident.

After Myra's death, Deborah had become the official Mrs. Cook, and Lily had also become Steven's lawful daughter. Poor Irene had lost both her parents overnight and became alienated from the family.

That wasn't the end of the story. Lily even went to seduce Edric, which in turn made Irene being driven out of her own marriage without any alimony.

After Irene was chased out of the Myers family, she lived a vagrant life. One could only imagine how difficult her life had been up till that point, but as it were, God was blind to her suffering. To top it all off, Eden was diagnosed with leukemia. If it weren't for Deborah and Lily's schemes, Irene's life would have been completely different.

A cold gleam appeared in Jordan's eyes. Deborah and Lily were the thorns in Irene's side, who had orchestrated Irene's current pitiful state. He would never let them off!

Karma dictated that what was stolen from others would surely find its way back to them. Jordan pledged that to make Deborah and Lily return what they had stolen away from Irene!

Lily began to follow Edric in secret. After disguising herself, she rented a car and waited on the street outside Edric's company. During the day, Edric would go to work normally and meet his clients. During that period, John would always be with him.

After getting off work in the evening, Edric and John would leave the company in their own cars. Lily followed Edric's car from afar. Edric drove into the parking lot of a supermarket. Lily did not dare to follow him in, hence she waited outside.

Half an hour later, Edric left the supermarket. Lily kept up with following him, all the way to Chandelle Valley.

Lily had a rich friend whose villa was in Chandelle Valley; thus, she had been there as a guest before. She knew that the design and interior decorations of each villa were top-notch.

She also knew that Edric had a villa for himself there, but he had never brought her there. After getting engaged to Edric, she had been looking forward to living there after their marriage.

Lily stopped the car at the gates of Chandelle Valley because the car she rented was too shabby. The security guard would not let her pass unless she told him who she was going to meet, thus she had no choice but to park the car outside.

After waiting outside for about an hour, she saw a familiar figure appear. It was Irene.

Carrying a purse, Irene walked inside the gates. Seeing the security guards greeting her, Lily's jealousy reached a fever-pitch. She, Edric's lawful fiancee, was stopped outside; meanwhile, Irene, that little b*tch, got to enter the premises boldly. Lily seethed with hatred for Irene. For a second, Lily really wanted to get out of the car and rush inside the villa area to cause a scene.

However, that remained just a fantasy that she kept in her mind. She was a well-educated woman. She would not stoop to such a shameless level!

Lily took a deep breath, releasing some of her pent- up hatred and anger. Right then and there, she finally understood everything. No wonder Irene, that b*tch, wanted to move out. The reason was right before her eyes now.

Irene opened the door and entered the villa. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Edric came out of the kitchen to welcome her. He was wearing a cartoon apron, which frankly, looked a little out of place on him. Upon seeing Irene, he giggled warmly and said, "I've finished preparing the ingredients. All that's left is for you to cook, and then we can sit down together for a meal."
