Reason being, the Steeles’ education style would cause the children to grow distant from their fathers.
The children would receive all kinds of training and be put through various trials at an early age and none of them were supervised by their father.
Since he married Hailey as a live-in husband, Jordan rarely contacted his father and instead stayed in touch with his grandfather.
“Jordan,” Rowan said.
Jordan didn’t waste his breath on anything else. As soon as she came over, he asked, “Dad, tell me, does the death of Victoria’s father have anything to do with you?”
“Victoria?” Rowan was a little surprised. “You mean your girlfriend who’s older than you? Who’s her father?”
Jordan said, “Her father is named Norman Clarke!”
Hearing Norman’s name, Rowan remained silent for a moment before sighing.
‘What a coincidence. I didn’t expect your girlfriend to be Norman Clarke’s daughter.”
Jordan could tell that his father knew Norman!
“Tell me, is Norman Clarke’s death related to you?” Jordan asked eagerly.
Rowan paused for a moment before replying, “Sort of.”
“Why did you kill him!?! Did he offend you, or did he offend our family!?” Jordan began to get worked up.
Rowan said, “Jordan, you have no right or permission to know about this matter.”
“I have no right?” Jordan didn’t expect his father to say that. “Isn’t the fact that I’m your son enough of a reason to know? What more permission do I need?”
Rowan said, “You must complete all the trials your grandfather puts you through before you’ll be allowed to find out the truth of this matter.”
“Jordan, I would also like to tell you the reason now, but your grandfather was the one who set these rules, so I can’t go against them.”
Jordan was stunned because it was his first time hearing that he needed permission to know about his family matters.
‘It’s no wonder that we have to go through so many strange trials. It turns out that there are certain permissions that will allow me to find out some family secrets!’
Jordan was now undergoing business training, even though the J Corporation might not meet his grandfather’s requirements.
Moreover, God knows what other trials there may be after the business trial.
He probably wouldn’t be able to complete the trial within a short period of time, so he wouldn’t be able to gain permission within at least two or three years.
“Dad, can’t you tell me now? If you don’t tell me, Victoria will be marrying someone else!”
Jordan said agitatedly.
Rowan sighed and said, “Son, you take love too seriously and you lack experience in romantic relationships. Consider your breakup with Victoria Clarke this time as a form of training.”
After saying that, Rowan hung up the phone.
Jordan sat back at the bar counter, lit up a cigarette, and picked up a glass of brandy before chugging it.
Salvatore ran in from outside and reported to Jordan, “Mr. Jordan, Emily cried so much that I sent her to the plane to rest.”
“When are we leaving? That old dog Russell’s wedding will start in another ten hours or so. If we don’t leave right now, we won’t be able to make it there!”
However, Jordan shook his head in response to Salvatore’s question.
Rowan had admitted himself that he was the one who killed Victoria’s father.
How could Jordan still have the cheek to go back and ruin Victoria’s wedding in an attempt to reconcile with her?
Just like that, an hour passed.
Salvatore scurried in and exclaimed, “We’re about to run out of time. Mr. Jordan, let’s set off!”
Another hour passed.
Salvatore ran in again and exclaimed, “We can’t let that old dog Russell marry your woman! On the night of the wedding, that punk will definitely try to get fresh with Victoria!”
Another hour passed.
Salvatore ran in again. “If we leave now, we’ll still have a chance to stop the wedding. If we wait another ten minutes, it’ll be too late!”
At this moment, a mature and reliable-looking man entered the bar and walked straight towards Jordan before tapping him on his shoulder.
“Who are you? Stay away from Mr. Jordan!” Salvatore immediately rushed over.
