My Wasted Husband Is in Power, Now!
Chapter 717 The Fault Of The Father!

Indeed, no matter how old a woman was, appearance was the most important to her.

Given that Jordan had helped Sylvie become 10 years younger, it was not an exaggeration to say that he had given her a new lease on life. She was already completely on Jordan's side and was no longer dissatisfied with him.

During the three years he was married to Hailey, Jordan had served his mother-in-law obediently but she still disliked him. If he had known that she valued looks so much, he would have gotten some beauty medicine from his family for her. He wouldn't have to suffer so much those three years then.

Behind Sylvie, Elie, who had already changed her name to Jenny, walked over and greeted Jordan. "Jordan, long time no see."

Jordan glanced at Elie and nodded. "Yes, long time no see."

They had a secret between them. The last time they met, they had slept together in a big mansion in South Korea. Jordan had taken her virginity!

Jordan had always been tempted by this sister-in-law. Her figure and face were extremely alluring. However, her outfit today was surprisingly conservative. She was not wearing clothes that accentuated her figure, like how she usually did. Her current outfit only revealed her figure by about 60-70%.

Actually, this was even better. In the past, her outfits were so revealing that they looked a little vulgar. After Elie became a celebrity, her taste had clearly improved.

Her recent social media photos were artistic shots that were not overtly sexual but subtly seductive. She said that she had learned this new style from some internet celebrities.

Elie said coquettishly, "Jordan, now that you and Hailey are married, I can call you brother-in-law again. That's great. I hope we can still maintain our previous relationship."

Elie's words were a little ambiguous. On the surface, there was nothing wrong with her calling him brother-in-law. However, her words "maintain our previous relationship" was a little intriguing. What did she mean by that? What kind of relationship?

If she was referring to those three years when he was married to Hailey, then there was nothing untoward.

But what if she was referring to that time in South Korea?

If it were any other man, they would be very tempted by her words. They would feel that they had gotten a good two-for-one deal from this marriage. "Okay." Jordan didn't say much.

"Jordan, congratulations. Hope you have a happy marriage. This is a gift for you. Hope you like it!" Drew also walked over and congratulated him with a smile. Ever since Drew found out about Jordan's true status, he was smart enough to not provoke him again.

After that, Rachel and her husband walked over and gave their congratulations. "Congratulations, Mr. Jordan. It's our honor to attend your wedding."

Jordan was equally cold to the couple. He had nothing to say to them, especially Rachel's husband, Cory!

Jordan had been forced to remarry Hailey. It was a fate that Jordan had tried several times to avoid. But Cory? What reason did he have to forgive Rachel?!

At this moment, Hailey's father, Benedict, said, "Why are all of you trying to curry favor with him?! Can't you tell that he doesn't want to talk to any of you? But you are still trying to suck up to him. Don't you have any shame?! Jordan, what's so amazing about you? Why are you so proud? My daughter is about to marry you. You brat, you haven't greeted your parents-in-law. You didn't even come out to welcome us!

"If you were really capable, would you have turned back and married our Hailey? The Steele family is finished, yet you still dare to put on airs in front of us! Cheap fool!"

Benedict's face was red and he reeked of alcohol. It was obvious that he was drunk.

Hailey hurriedly said, "Dad, don't spout nonsense. The Steeles family isn't finished. They still have a lot of money."

Benedict retorted, "What's the use of just having money?! Power is the real deal! You don't have the right to speak. No matter how much money you have, it's not yours. It'll be taken away sooner or later!" Afraid that Jordan would be angry, Hailey went to his side and coaxed him. "Hubby, my father drank too much. Don't be angry."

Jordan was indeed very annoyed. It was true that the Steeles were in dire straits now, but the Camdens had no right to mock them. They were just a third-rate family from Orlando!

Jordan walked up to Benedict. "You claim that I'm arrogant and ignoring you? When I first married Hailey, did you care or respect me? Also, you're a man, but what capabilities do you have? You lost to your big brother. You failed to fight for the inheritance, so you're putting the responsibility of saving your family on your daughter. If you hadn't forced her to fight with your big brother's family, she wouldn't have borrowed money from Tyler and wouldn't have cheated on me! You brought harm upon her and your own family. What right do you have to criticize me?!"

Every single word of Jordan's was true. He was not maligning him at all. Back then, when Jordan first met Hailey, she was still innocent and lovely. She was very shy and demure.

However, her parents kept putting pressure on her to fight with her uncle's family. This gradually distorted Hailey's values. She believed that she could only obtain happiness with money.

What if Benedict never implicated Hailey in his family conflict? Perhaps, Hailey wouldn't have become like this today!

It was the fault of the father when a woman erred!

Benedict was drunk and felt very embarrassed by Jordan's public reprimand. He shouted, "B*stard, I'm your father-in-law. How dare you lecture me? You brat, your own family is finished anyway. I'll slap your useless face today!"

With that, Benedict tried to attack Jordan!

"Drew, stop your uncle!" Sylvie became very anxious.

Drew quickly grabbed Benedict to prevent him from attacking as he knew Jordan's strength very well. Benedict was drunk and 20 years older than Jordan. But even in his prime, he still wouldn't be Jordan's match!

"Uncle, are you crazy? Our family is counting on Jordan. If you hit him, the Camdens will be doomed!" Drew tried his best to stop Benedict.

Benedict shouted as he struggled. "Count on him my ass! Look at how ungrateful he is. So what if Hailey cheated on you? How can you blame her? She wouldn't have cheated on you if you hadn't pretended to be poor. You deserved it! If you continue to pretend, I'll make sure Hailey cheats on you again!"

Drew quickly covered Benedict's mouth with his hand to stop him from continuing.

Benedict struggled even harder. His lighter fell to the ground and was kicked to the side.

The lighter hit the leg of a tall stool. The stool was made of wood, so it should be very sturdy. However, it swayed as if it was about to fall apart after being struck by the small lighter.

Jordan was furious at Benedict's words and had clenched his fists, ready to punch his father-in-law. But after he saw the stool, he immediately changed his mind.
