My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now!
Chapter 1279 Will You Choose Victoria?

Jordan did not care about their past relationship at all and rejected Victoria firmly.

Today, whether Victoria knelt or apologized, she could not change Jordan's decision.

Victoria said with tears in her eyes. "So after falling out of love with someone, a man can become so heartless. Previously when you loved me, you were willing to do anything for me even if you had to take a greater risk than now.

"If Lauren were a purple mutant today and she came to beg you, you would help her. You would definitely be willing to take this risk for her because you have never been afraid of anything, not even the three golden mutants! I've already put down all my pride to beg you today. Even so, it turns out it's useless. I have nothing more to say."

With that, she left the room with tears in her eyes.

She knew Jordan well. He would not cower and not dare to cooperate just because he was afraid that someone would snatch his golden bloodline. In the past, Jordan would not blink even if the situation was more dangerous.

Just like how you could never wake someone who was pretending to be asleep, Victoria felt that Jordan no longer had any love for her. No matter what she said, it was useless.

Victoria sadly pushed open the door and was crying. The winged bird in the courtyard, Cherry, immediately broke free from Chloe's hand and flew over, flapping its blue wings to comfort her.

Without a glance back, Victoria walked out and didn't say anything to the crowd. She was as cold as usual and headed straight for the door, ready to leave.

However, seeing Victoria like this, Lauren followed her out worriedly and stopped her at the door.

"Victoria."

Lauren slowly stopped Victoria and asked with concern, "Victoria, what's wrong? Did Jordan say something to make you sad? Now that you two have just separated, Jordan might not have calmed down yet. Perhaps you came a little early. If you come again half a year or a year later, Jordan won't be like this."

Lauren had secretly seen Victoria kneeling down to Jordan just now. She thought that Victoria had failed to get back together after kneeling, so she ran out sadly.

Lauren held Victoria's hand and said, "Victoria, come back in half a year. I'll persuade Jordan to try to accept you again during this period."

Victoria shook her head. "You've misunderstood. I'm not here to beg Jordan to get back together. He already has two perfect wives, you and Lota. He doesn't need me anymore."

Lauren was a little surprised. "Then what was the reason for your visit this time..."

Lauren didn't think there was anything else that could make the proud Victoria kneel in front of the person she loved the most.

Victoria asked, "Do you know about the golden mutant's grand plan?"

Lauren nodded. "Jordan told me. He said that they want to choose one of the purple mutants... Ah, right, you're a purple mutant! Is that why you're here? Is it that you want to become a golden mutant?" Lauren immediately understood Victoria's purpose for coming this time. It turned out that Victoria knelt down to Jordan to beg him to help Victoria become a golden mutant!

Victoria did not hide it. She nodded and said, "Yes, but I didn't want to become a golden mutant out of selfishness. I admit that I have some vanity and want to become the highest-level mutant. However, part of the reason I did this is for Jordan.

"Lauren, you should know that there are four golden mutants now. Other than Jordan, the three of them are stronger than Jordan. Moreover, they're in cahoots with him. If they deal with Jordan, none of the people around Jordan, such as Salvatore, Dragon, or even Rong Bingshao, can help him. A golden mutant can completely crush a low-level mutant. Without golden mutant powers, one can't help Jordan at all. Lauren was shocked. "You... want to help Jordan?"

Victoria nodded and said, "If that day really comes and the three golden mutants really want to deal with Jordan, I, Victoria, swear to stand on Jordan's side. Don't tell me you don't believe me? Do you think I'll help those outsiders deal with Jordan after I become a golden mutant?"

Lauren held Victoria's hand tightly. "Victoria, of course I believe that you'll help Jordan. He's our husband. You've been husband and wife before. Besides, you still love him now!

"Actually, ever since I found out that there are three other golden mutants in this world, and that they've been golden mutants for a long time and are even stronger than Jordan, I've been very worried. No one can guarantee that they'll always be friendly to Jordan.

"If Jordan can get a golden mutant who is on his side, he can at least maintain a balance so that they won't dare to act rashly against him. Victoria, I'm relieved to hear what you said today. After all, I'm just an ordinary woman. I can't do anything for Jordan. Victoria, if possible, you have to help Jordan."

Lauren asked Victoria nervously and excitedly.

Victoria sighed. "I also want to help him, but he won't give me the chance. Lauren, please persuade him. He really needs help. Although he doesn't like me, I am the only one who can help him right now." Lauren quickly watched Victoria leave. Then, Lauren returned to her room. Jordan was drinking tea alone.

Lauren sat beside Jordan and said softly, "Victoria told me about what happened just now."

Jordan said, "That woman is crazy about becoming a golden mutant. You don't have to pay attention to her. I won't put myself in danger."

Lauren said, "Hubby, of course I want you to stay away from those golden mutants. It's best if you never come into contact with them. However, they've already targeted you. We can't escape. I think Victoria is right about one thing. You need helpers. You can't deal with the three of them alone. Creating another golden mutant won't do you any harm. Instead, it can prevent them from joining forces to deal with you.

"I want to know, did you reject Victoria just because you don't trust Mike Baylor and the others? Or... do you not want Victoria to become a golden mutant? Or, let me be more direct. If one day you also have an epiphany and you are as anxious as Mike Baylor, wanting to quickly gather the five golden mutants, would you choose Victoria?"

Jordan lowered his head and did not give an affirmative answer. He could not lie to Lauren.

Lauren said, "1 understand. Sigh, it looks like Victoria won't have this chance. But if you choose someone else, there's really no one trustworthy among the purple mutants. It would be great if Dragon or Salvatore were purple mutants. Let's not talk about it anymore. You must be more troubled than me. I'll go and replace Chloe."

"Lauren!"

After Lauren stood up, Jordan suddenly stopped her.
