At this moment, Jordan came to a sudden realization.
Jordanâs second brother, Jamie, had deliberately placed the keys to Great Mountain Villas there for this purpose!
All of a sudden, Jordan was perplexed.
Since Jamie had deliberately arranged for Jordan and Lauren to meet in New York City, this showed that he also knew about the incident that happened to Jordan in the small dark room on the Syrian battlefield!
Jordan had been ashamed about that incident, and he never told anyone about it!
âHow did Jamie know about that!? Could it be that⊠Jamie was the one who sent Lauren to the small dark room that day!?!â
âThatâs not impossible!â
Jordanâs brother, Jamie, had always been the greatest troublemaker and the most reckless and unruly one among his brothers.
Perhaps, he thought that Jordan was having a hard time on the battlefield and happened to meet a big beauty like Lauren on the roadside, so he decided to give her to Jordan and let him have some fun.
Jamie loved doing such things the most!
He carefully thought about how fishy things were when he was suddenly attacked at the base camp on the battlefield!
Jordan walked towards Lauren and her daughter, taking one step at a time.
Before this, he had been stunned by Laurenâs beauty and deliberately dragged his sister along.
However, he never thought that this absolutely charming woman had long slept with him!
Recalling what happened that day in the small dark room, Jordan felt rather amazing!
Jordan looked at Lauren and asked, âYou already knew about my relationship with you, didnât you?â
He knew without thinking that Brad must resent Jordan for what he had done to his sister.
Since Brad knew that Jordan was the culprit, Lauren must also be aware, so she must be the one who told Brad about it.
Lauren nodded.
Jordan felt rather emotional because he didnât expect Lauren to have long known that Jordan was the one who had slept with her on the battlefield before!
However, the three times they met, Lauren did not show any anger towards Jordan. She even entertained Jordan like a guest and served him coffee every time.
Jordan looked at Lauren and said, âWhy didnât you tell me that you were the woman who had slept with me on the battlefield that day?â
Lauren lowered her head slightly and smiled warmly.
âYou have a gorgeous girlfriend whom youâre very in love with. I donât want to disturb your life.â
Laurenâs words made Jordan feel even more guilty!
Jordan had done such an irresponsible thing to Lauren and caused her to have to single-handedly raise her daughter. For four years, she hadnât been able to get married again.
However, Lauren chose not to tell Jordan the truth because she didnât want him to disturb his blissful life and relationship with Victoria!
If Lauren suddenly appeared and told Jordan that she was the woman he had once defiled and impregnated, Jordanâs life would definitely be affected.
His relationship with Victoria would also be affected.
Lauren was too kindhearted!
Jordan once again asked Lauren, âDidnât you hate me when you saw me again at the cafe for the first time?â
Lauren shook her head and said, âItâs all over now. Besides, itâs not your fault that that incident happened four years ago.â
Jordan felt that Lauren knew more about that incident four years ago than he did.
Jordan asked, âWas it my brother, Jamie, who brought you to the battlefield?â
Lauren nodded.
Jordan pounded the table in front of him furiously, âThat scoundrel Jamie! Why did he do that!?!â
Jamie just liked doing such crazy things, but it ended up harming the pitiful Lauren!
After a moment of silent contemplation, Jordan asked another question, âMiss Howard, may I ask⊠when you were in the small dark room that day, did you already know who I was and what I looked like?â
Jordan did not know anything about the woman in the small dark room that day. All he knew was that she was very young.
There was a tiny gap in the middle of the wooden door of the small dark room, and when the light shone on her legs, he knew that she had a beautiful and fair pair of legs.
However, since Lauren was sent by Jamie, he reckoned that Jamie should have already told her before sending her over, the person she would be accompanying.
Laurenâs face suddenly turned flushed, and she bit her lip before nodding.
âYes,â Lauren replied softly.
Jordan was shocked. âSo, Lauren Howard knew that the man in the small dark room four years ago was me!â
Besides, she had long known what Jordan looked like.
Jordan was very handsome, so if Lauren had known who he was and fancied him to a certain extent, the matter would probably be less hurtful to her.
When it came to this issue, Lauren surprisingly became very shy. âWell⊠itâs not because youâre handsome⊠that IâŠâ
âThat you what?â Jordan didnât catch what Lauren meant.
Lauren blushed shyly and frantically said, âNo⊠nothing.â
At this moment, the little girl who had been sitting obediently on the bed suddenly smiled and looked at Lauren. She said in a puerile voice, âMommy, youâre blushing. Mommy likes this man.â
Whoosh!
Laurenâs originally flushed face became even redder!
Laurenâs skin was fair and in excellent condition. Hence, when she blushed, it was pronounced.
Lauren hurriedly said to her daughter, âDonât talk nonsense, since when did IâŠâ
The little girl was at the age where she would speak freely and not know how to lie. With a sheepish smile, she said, âMommy, you said that we tend to blush only when we see someone we like.â
Lauren and Jordan were suddenly extremely awkward!
At this moment, Jordan also turned to look at the little girl, who was pretty and had a melodious voice. He asked, âIs she⊠my daughter?â
