Chapter 279: Clarice Howard!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although Jordan was young, he had trained in various places all over the world for years and had been

through plenty!

Although the Howards were a wealthy family in DC, Jordan’s current status wasn’t poor either!

He was the CEO of J Corporation and was lauded as the wealthiest person in the country!

Jordan closed the car door and said to Brad, “I am the richest man in the US. I’m afraid your family will

have to look up to me when they see me!”

Brad too, got out of the car, closed the door, and guffawed loudly.

“You’re really hilarious. Jordan Steele, your lousy takeout company is only worth a paltry amount of

money in the country. Trust you to call yourself the richest man. You’re just enjoying the bootlicking from

Ryan Dunn, who’s praising you and sucking up to you. You’re not even on the list of richest people!”

“Besides, even if you are on the list of richest people, we won’t recognize you or even acknowledge you

because we don’t ever read such lists or buy any business magazines.”

“My grandfather doesn’t even let me use Twitter and Instagram. Even if I do, it’s only for us to read news,

and we’ll never post or share anything.”

“Jordan Steele, you grew up abroad, and you don’t even understand the situation here.”

“It’s always a good thing to keep a low profile. Do you think the people on the Forbes list of richest

people are really the richest in the US or the world? Bullshit! My family doesn’t even bother being on

such lists. Otherwise, they’d be top on the list for the past few decades!”

Jordan knew quite a bit about the situation in the country, and it was indeed as Brad said.

Not to mention the Howards, even the Steeles could easily become the top on the list of the world’s

richest. They simply didn’t bother to compete.

Previously, he had given himself the title of the country’s wealthiest, only to make Hailey jealous.

Jordan said calmly, “It’s even better if they don’t know me.”

Jordan didn’t want to have any dealings with Brad’s parents. He just wanted to meet Lauren and

apologize to her.

It would be better if he didn’t get recognized by the rest of the Howards. Jordan liked to keep a low profile

anyway.

Hence, Jordan followed Brad in.

As soon as they entered, a servant bowed and greeted with a smile, “You’re here, Mr. Brad.”

“Yes.”

Brad walked quickly towards the villa hall like the wealthy scion he was.

Looking over from afar, he noticed that there were lots of people in the hall.

A very elegant and dignified middle-aged woman was talking to a maid-like girl.

“What? She won’t come out? Chris has especially come here to see her. How can she refuse to even

take a look at him? Continue asking her to come out!”

Hearing the voice of the dignified middle-aged woman, Brad stepped into the hall.

“Dad! Mom!”

Brad exclaimed at the two middle-aged people inside.

The middle-aged woman who spoke was Brad’s mother.

On the other hand, Brad’s father was the chubby middle-aged man sitting in the middle.

Apart from the two of them, there was also a man and a woman.

The man seated in the guest’s seat was about 30 years old, and he was tall and muscular. He had a

somewhat menacing and austere expression on his average-looking face, which would make one

shudder.

His sitting posture was extremely elaborate, and it was actually a standard military sitting posture.

Moreover, he kept a straight face and didn’t smile at all.

Jordan was not interested in this man. Instead, the one who caught his attention was the woman!

That woman was about the same age as Jordan, and she was sitting cross-legged on the chair. She was

dressed in expensive clothes, and she exuded the aura of a noble lady.

‘Is she Brad’s sister, Lauren?’

Jordan was a little agitated because he was eager to know if this woman was the same woman he had a

one-night-stand within the darkroom that night!

However, if it was, Jordan would be slightly disappointed!

She had the temperament of a wealthy heiress, and she was rather good-looking. However, she still fell

short of Jordan’s expectations.

After all, Brad was incredibly good-looking, so Jordan thought that his sister must be gorgeous too. He

didn’t expect that she would be less pretty than Brad.

‘Could it be that their parents’ excellent genes were all inherited by Brad and not his sister?’

Brad greeted his parents, and when he saw the middle-aged man who was seated in a military posture,

he said, “Why are you here again?”

Brad’s mother hurriedly said, “How can you be so rude to General Hank’s son? He is several years older

than you. You have to be polite to him!”

On the other hand, Brad had a look of disdain on his face.

At this moment, Brad’s father stared at Jordan as he had been since he entered. He asked, “Brad, who is

this?”

Brad said casually, “Oh, the new chauffeur I just hired.”

Brad’s mother asked, “Why did you bring the chauffeur in? We’re talking about something important

here. ask him to go outside for now.”

Brad glanced at Jordan and said with a smile, “It’s alright, let’s continue talking. Don’t be afraid, I’m his

life savior, and he’s very loyal to me. He won’t dare to spout any nonsense about our family.”

Jordan secretly thought, ‘Damn it, when did he ever save my life?’

‘I spared you from death. I should be your benefactor!’

However, Jordan didn’t want to have any dealings with the Howards as the third scion of the Steeles for

the time being.

Since they didn’t recognize him, he decided to face them using the identity as a driver for the time being.

At this moment, Brad’s father asked, “Brad, I heard from your pilot that you got into an accident in

Orlando, right? Did your leg get injured during that accident?”

Brad waved his hand and said, “Oh, it’s not a big deal, just a trivial matter.”

At this moment, the middle-aged man seated in a military posture suddenly exclaimed, “Brad, we’ll also

be a family in the future. Tell me who hurt you, and I’ll bring my subordinates to destroy him!”

‘How domineering, eh?’

‘This man speaks so arrogantly!’

Brad could have joined forces with this man to deal with Jordan, but he didn’t want to talk to him about it

at all. Instead, he felt extremely disgusted.

“Chris Hank, who’s going to be family with you? Has my sister agreed? This is just wishful thinking on

your part.”

At the mention of Brad’s sister, Jordan couldn’t help but look at the woman sitting next to Chris again.

The woman, whom Brad suspected was Brad’s sister, also looked at Jordan!

She suddenly said, “Brad, where did you get such a lecherous chauffeur from? Have you never seen a

woman before? How many times have you stared at my face since you entered the door? You don’t have

any manners at all!”

There were many rules here, and even when one wanted to look at someone else, they ought not to

gawk straight at them. There were lots of etiquettes involved too.

Jordan wasn’t accustomed to such rules.

He only knew that he thought the woman was Lauren Howard, and so his purpose was to apologize to

her.

‘Who else should I look at then?’

However, her harsh words made Jordan really disappointed!

Jordan still remembered that woman’s soft voice in the small dark room four years ago…

Even after a one-night stand with Jordan, she didn’t scold him at all.

At this moment, Brad suddenly laughed and said, “Clarice Howard, you should be glad that a man was

staring at you. Haven’t you always been jealous of my sister’s beauty all these years?”

Jordan was startled to find that this woman was not Brad’s biological sister, Lauren Howard, but Clarice!

She was Brad’s half-sister!
