Chapter 163: I’d Rather Become a Beggar!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Cayden had suddenly developed lustful thoughts about Victoria.
Victoria was older than him, and her aura was overbearing, so Cayden had never dared to behave inappropriately towards her.
However, Victoria was now exhausted after a day of failed interviews.
The weather was hot, and Victoria had to walk quite a distance to reach her car, so she was now feeling hot and sweaty.
When she got into the car, she took off her high heels that had been torturing her all day.
Cayden only dared to take advantage of Victoria because he saw how exhausted and disheveled she was.
That would also be a kind of revenge on Jordan!
In the past seven years, countless men had wanted to take advantage of Victoria.
She could tell what was on a man’s mind just by looking into his eyes!
Hence, when Cayden was about to kiss her, Victoria suddenly opened the car door and violently pushed it outwards.
“Hey, hey, hey, my head! It’s stuck! Stop pushing!”
Cayden panicked and frantically exclaimed as half of his body was inside her car while the other half was outside. He looked extremely disheveled.
Victoria pushed Cayden away and put on her high heels again before stepping out of the car, once again regaining her domineering aura.
Cayden got out of the car and pointed at Victoria. “What an arrogant woman, how dare you be so disrespectful to me!?!”
Victoria had already shown mercy to Cayden. If he didn’t have a powerful grandfather, Victoria wouldn’t have just pushed the car door. She would have slapped him!
Victoria said furiously, “Cayden Huxley, you’re getting married tomorrow. Instead of spending time with your beautiful wife, you decided to follow me the entire day. You’ve got lots of free time, don’t you?”
Cayden laughed and said, “Don’t think I’ll let you guys off the hook just because I’ll be busy with my wedding. You’re on my turf, and you really asked for it by living in the villa next to mine. How can I possibly let you have a good time!?!”
“Victoria, there’s no feud between us, and to be honest, I really admire you. Beautiful and capable presidents like you are few and far between in this city.”
“As long as you break up with Jordan and stop seeing him, I can introduce you to a job at Breezy Express.”
“Of course, I can’t let you be the deputy president for the time being, but there won’t be a problem for you to be a senior executive.”
“You’re so capable. I believe that in less than two years, you will climb up on your own, won’t you?”
Breezy Express was a company worth tens of billions, and Cayden’s offer to Victoria was absolutely a huge temptation!
However, Victoria continued to refute adamantly, “I won’t strike a deal with you! I just want to be Jordan’s girlfriend!”
“I don’t have to work for someone else either. I have enough money too, and at most, I’ll set up my own company!”
Victoria was also a multi-millionaire herself, and she could easily take out 20 million dollars.
However, Cayden laughed and said, “Haha, start your own company? That’s great. I’m waiting for you to spend all your money and then become penniless with Jordan!”
“You can try. Whatever company you open and whatever business you do, I will boycott you to the very end!”
“If you fork out 20 million dollars, I’ll fork out 40. If you fork out 200 million dollars, I’ll fork out a billion dollars to suppress you!”
“You can’t be richer than I am!”
Nowadays, competition in business is all about a contest of who can spend more money.
Previously, Jordan had used this exact method to deal with those companies that Tyler invested in.
The party that spends the most money will definitely defeat the other party.
Victoria was enraged. “I just don’t believe that the Huxleys can be tyrants in New York City. I’m sure you have rivals and enemies!”
“I’m telling you, even if Jordan and I end up becoming beggars in New York City, I won’t succumb to you!”
Cayden gave Victoria a thumbs up and exclaimed, “You’ve got some guts. I’ll wait for you to turn into beggars then!”
After Cayden finished speaking, he drove away with a big smile on his face.
Victoria got a grip on her emotions, adjusted her dress, fixed her makeup, and then headed home.
Jordan had already returned and had made dinner.
He had gone to Perry Express today to apply for a courier job, and it went well.
Perry Express was the second-largest courier company after Breezy Express.
“Honey, I’m home.”
Victoria was all smiles as she hid her fatigue and sadness from Jordan.
When you truly love someone, you won’t want them to know that you’ve suffered.
In fact, they might not be able to alleviate your troubles anyway.
That would only increase the pressure on Jordan for nothing!
Jordan kissed Victoria and asked, “How was work today?”
Victoria did not want to lie to him, but she did not want him to worry either, so she digressed and said, “Tell me about yourself first, how was your day? You didn’t encounter any trouble, right?”
Jordan smiled and asked, “Are you afraid that Cayden will send someone to beat me up in broad daylight?”
“Even if there’s a fight, I should be the one to beat him up! I still haven’t settled the scores with him for slandering you as a promiscuous woman on the internet yet!”
Victoria held Jordan’s hand and said, “Forget it, let’s not talk about that, let me try your cooking!”
For the past three years, Jordan had been studying food and culinary seriously under Hailey’s supervision. Victoria enjoyed it with great pleasure.
However, after eating, Victoria said she was exhausted and went to bed early.
…
At TAXX nightclub in New York, it was the very same night.
The electronic dance music in the club was deafening, with the bass booming. The gorgeous long-legged beauties were constantly capturing hearts.
Nightclub goers would know how expensive the seats here were. The fact that all the cars parked outside the club showed that the patrons were all tycoons.
Cayden was drinking with some friends in the best private room in the club.
“Cayden, I really didn’t expect you to get married so soon. I thought you would have fun for another two or three years.”
“Haha, Hailey is gorgeous. Haven’t you seen the wedding photos? She’s amazing!”
“Unfortunately, Cayden has been conquered by a fairy. I was thinking of holding a pre-wedding bachelor party today.”
Cayden sipped his wine and stayed silent.
His friends were all very envious of him as he had had his fair share of fun and even got to marry such a beautiful woman.
However, no one knew his woes!
“By the way, Cayden, since you’re getting married, let me have some fun with Maggie, okay?”
“Yeah, I like that celeb too!”
His circle of rich scion friends all knew that he had slept with the big celebrity Maggie too.
Cayden suddenly said, “Who says I can’t have fun because I’m married? Who said I’ve been conquered by Hailey?”
“Maggie is mine, don’t think of snatching her from me.”
His friends started egging him on.
“Hah, I don’t believe it. I see you are quite henpecked towards Hailey. If you have the guts, call Maggie and ask her to come here now.”
Cayden thought about it. Hailey was now in Orlando, and he would be sending a convoy of luxury cars to pick her up on the day of the wedding.
“Sure, I haven’t heard Maggie sing to me for a long time too!”
