The Abandoned Husband Dominates

Jordan and Hailey were from two different worlds. If not for the training mission arranged by his family, the two of them would never have been together.

Rowan understood Jordan's feelings. "Alright, I agree. I'll tell Jesse later."

"Thank you, Dad," Jordan said.

A moment later, Jordan asked suddenly, "Dad, can I ask you a question?"

Rowan nodded. "Go ahead."

Jordan continued. "Logically speaking, the Steele family head position should be passed down from one generation to the next. Grandpa should have passed it to you first, and then you can pass it on to me or Jesse. Why did Grandpa skip you? I can see that your relationship with Grandpa is quite good. Moreover, you've always been quite obedient to Grandpa. You've also done quite well under Grandpa's arrangements. You are not estranged from him at all.

"Besides, in terms of ability, I don't think you are inferior to us."

Rowan was not a fool. Anyone could tell he was a capable man so Jordan could not understand why Charleston did not favor him.

At Rowan's current age, he was the most suitable candidate to be the head of the Steele family. He would have more gravitas when dealing with other families.

Rowan smiled. "Thank you for your recognition, child. However, I'm not interested in being the head of the Steele family. I mentioned this to Grandpa many years ago. I told him that the head of the family should be directly passed onto your generation."

"Huh? Why? Dad, why don't you have the fighting spirit? Did something happen to you?" Jordan asked curiously.

Rowan sighed. "Many years ago, when your uncle Randall was still alive, the two of us fought fiercely over who would be the successor. Our battles were a hundred times more intense than those between you and your brothers. However, later on, he died because of me. I've always felt guilty and believed that I had let him down. Therefore, I swore not to fight for power anymore and gave up the position of the head of the Steele family.

"Don't think that I'm old and boring now. When I was young, I was even more popular than Jamie. I was also a playboy. I still remember that I once asked the Deity to teach me a trick to pick up girls. It's the 'voodoo' technique that you recently learned. Sigh, now that I think about it, I've let down many good girls!"

Jordan was shocked by Rowan's confession. His father, who appeared to have no worldly desires and was steady and calm, was actually a playboy who was even wilder than Jamie when he was young?

Not only that, he was even more obsessed with power and winning the position of the family head than Jesse?

Jordan had always prided himself on being a good judge of people. No one could escape his eyes. But now, it seemed that he was still too inexperienced. He didn't even understand his father.

Jordan asked in confusion, "How did Uncle die because of you? It was Shaun Handley who killed him!"

"Shaun Handley? What do you mean?" Rowan frowned.

Jordan quickly explained, "Looks like Grandpa didn't tell you about this. After we saved Tom Schmid and his wife, Tom said that when Shaun Handley first came to them, he was with Uncle Randall. Moreover, he also said that Uncle Randall was being controlled by Shaun with evil techniques then. Uncle Randall was not himself at all at that time!"

Boom!

There was an explosion in Rowan's head like thunder!

Rowan, who had always been calm and steady, suddenly became very agitated. He grabbed Jordan's clothes and asked hysterically, "What did you say? Randall was being controlled? He was controlled by Shaun Handley? He was not himself at that time?"

Jordan nodded affirmatively. "Yes!"

Rowan sighed. "Ah! I should have seen it back then! Why would Randall be so vicious toward me?! Why would he fight with me so ferociously?! So it was all Shaun Handley's doing all along! Ah!! Shaun Handley! You killed my brother and made me feel guilty for so many years. Demon! Demon!"

At this moment, Jordan finally knew the truth behind his father.

Previously, Jordan thought that he had triggered a grudge between the Steele and Handley families by killing Shaun's mother.

But he then found out that many years ago, Shaun had caused his uncle's death!

Now, he realized that the incident also caused his father to think that he was the murderer. Rowan felt guilty and sank into oblivion, causing the Steele family to have no successor in the second generation. That was why his performance had been inferior to the other seven families over the past decades!

"Damn you, Shaun! I'll definitely tear you into pieces!"

Jordan clenched his fists and said to Rowan, "Dad, don't worry. I will definitely kill that demon with my own hands!"

Rowan was also furious. "Good, my good son! You can do it! You can definitely do it! You must avenge your uncle!"

Jordan nodded. "Yes!"

…

Meanwhile, Victoria, Lauren and Hailey were in the female washroom.

Hailey handed a couple of black veils to the other two. "Victoria, Lauren, here are your veils."

Although she should be in mourning, Hailey was smiling happily. "Victoria, Lauren, from now on, we're family! I'm the youngest, so I'll be the third wife. Don't worry. I won't keep hogging our husband. Just give me one day a week, hehe."

Victoria and Lauren were speechless from disdain. They never expected that they would become a family with a woman like Hailey!

Victoria asked, "Hailey, what did you do to Jordan's grandfather during your stay in the castle? Why did he ask you to marry Jordan before he died?"

In response, Hailey quickly said, "Victoria, what do you mean by that? Do you think I gave Grandpa some bewitching drug? I just did my job as a servant in the castle. Grandpa must have seen my good attitude and forgiven me.

"Besides, why can't I marry Jordan again? I gave birth to a son for him. Did you two give him any sons? My son will inherit the Steele family business in the future. Grandpa must have wanted my son to grow up in a complete family. That's why he wanted us to get back together!"

Victoria snorted. "Grandpa won't even give the current family head position to Jordan. The position will never be passed down to your son. That's definitely not the reason. It must be you. I don't know what despicable methods you used again!"

Hailey was infuriated. "What despicable means can I use? Jordan's grandfather is already 80 years old. I can't possibly have used my body to seduce him, right?"

Seeing the argument become more heated, Lauren tried to smooth over the situation. "Alright, alright, stop arguing. Since Grandpa has decided, Hailey, please behave yourself in the future. Don't be like before."

Hailey was still annoyed. "Lauren, what do you mean by that? What do you mean "behave myself"? What kind of behavior are you referring to?!"
