Bradâs henchman replied, âNo, Jamie Steele is just too cunning. All of us lost him.â
Brad frowned and said, âIt seems that Jamie Steele is probably far more competent than Jordan!â
Jordan, who was at the door, humphed coldly and thought to himself, âNone of the three of us are weak!â
Although Jamie had yet to go for his battlefield trial, he trained in martial arts from a young age, just like Jordan.
Besides, Jamie was extremely scheming like a god of trickery, just like Loki in âThorâ.
He would always be the one to fool others, but he would never be fooled.
âBrad Howard wants to tail him, huh?â
âHis mediocre henchmen are clearly incapable of that!â
However, at this moment, the henchman said, âWe lost Jamie, but we found a place in DC where heâs hiding!â
Jordan was surprised, while Brad was overjoyed. âWhere is he?â
His henchman replied, âOn the outskirts of DC, in a small rural home in River Bay.â
Brad asked, âDid you find anything suspicious in there?â
His henchman shook his head and said, âThe house has quite a nice decor and the items in there are really luxurious. Thereâs also a safe in the house, but we didnât open it because I donât know the password.â
âHowever, after scanning them with the detector, we found that there were only some jewelry and other valuables inside.â
âWeâve sent our snipers, Anna and Dan, there.â
Brad nodded and said, âAlthough Jamie Steele is very cunning, so the possibility of him going back after finding out that we found his place of residence is very low, itâs good to stay there for a few days to observe.â
âJamie Steele, youâd better not let me catch you, or else Iâll chop you into bits after I get my hands on you!â
âOkay, go out. Iâm going to sleep. Inform me immediately once you get news about Jamie.â
âYes!â
Seeing that Brad was going to switch off the lights and go to bed, Jordan knew he wouldnât be able to get any useful news here, so he left too.
Jordan pondered for a while as he walked out of the hospital.
This time, he did not ask about where Victoria was held captive, but he eavesdropped and found out some useful information.
âJamieâs actually here in DC and he has a house in the outskirts?â
Jordan was filled with curiosity, so he called a cab and headed to the residential estate on the outskirts.
It was surrounded by mountains and only about 30 meters away from the river. The view was excellent too.
The woods were large, and the air was great.
âJamie has picked a nice place.â
Jordan walked slowly. The rural estate was very large, and he didnât know which one was Jamieâs home.
When he walked to a white house, which was rather inconspicuous, a man suddenly walked over, dressed in the âHoward family army uniform.â
âIâm here to bring you guys some food.â
Jordan said, carrying a box of food that he had made a long time ago.
It was now three oâclock in the morning, so it was dark outside. Besides, the two of them didnât know Jordan at all so they didnât suspect anything.
âGreat, Iâm hungry and my stomach is rumbling!â
The uniformed man on the other side took the lunch box quickly.
âWhereâs Anna?â Jordan asked.
He knew that apart from Andy, there was also another sniper named Dan.
Pointing to the roof, Dan said, âThe roof.â
Snipers usually wouldnât stay around in the room and would instead choose to hide in a place that would provide a better view.
âIâll hand it to him.â
Jordan prepared two boxes of food which had been laced with sleeping pills. Hence, anyone who ate it would soon fall asleep.
âDo you want something to eat? There are oysters and duck.â
Jordan raised his head and called out to the blurry figure.
Soon, a figure with an athletic build leaped off the roof. It turned out to be a female sniper who had quite an outstanding figure.
âDid you encounter any suspicious persons or cars?â Anna asked coldly and couldnât help but grab the food container from Jordanâs hand.
Jordan shook his head and said, âNo, itâs late at night. There isnât a single soul here.â
âHey, did you guys discover anything here?â
Dan, who had already started to eat, criticized, âWe discovered nothing. Thereâs nothing else here except a safe. There must be good stuff in the safe, but unfortunately, we donât know the pass code. Otherwise, we could have stolen a few.â
âI heard Jamie is the second son of the mysterious Steele family, which is mega rich. Anything they own is easily worth millions!â
Jordan asked, âWhere is the safe?â
Dan pointed at the room and said, âInside the room.â
Jordan nodded and said, âYou guys go ahead and eat while I go inside to take a look.â
The two of them werenât suspecting because they knew Jordan didnât know the passcode so they werenât afraid that he would take the things away.
After Jordan entered, he soon found the safe, which was exactly the same as the one that Jamie left in Café Nostalgia.
Jordan couldnât help but recall the time when he met Lauren in Café Nostalgia.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After feeling emotional, Jordan tried to unlock the safe. The first passcode he tried was Jamieâs birthday.
The passcode was wrong!
âIt canât be my birthday, can it?â
Jordan thought, âThat shouldnât be the case. When we were in New York City, the passcode was my birthday.â
âJamie should have kept the safe for himself.â
With the intention of testing the waters, Jordan punched the digits of his birthday on the keypad.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the safe was opened!
âWhat? The passcode is still my birthday?â
Jordan was shocked, and he wondered, âWhy is the passcode still my birthday?â
âDid he use the same passcode as the safe in New York City out of habit? Or is it he doesnât want to let his acquaintances guess it easily?â
There were two possibilities. Maybe Jamie was afraid that others might guess it easily if he were to use his own birthday as the passcode.
Another was that the safe was meant for Jordan!
If that was the case, Jamie probably guessed that Jordan would come here!
Jordan was extremely curious. He opened the safe and a stunning sight appeared in front of him!
There were shiny jewels, necklaces, diamonds, gold, cold hard cash, and dozens of cards!
âDamn! I finally have money now! That bastard Jamie can finally help me this time!â
Jordan was pleased to see the cash and valuables, too.
In the past, he wouldnât be tempted by these items because he used to be so wealthy that he would never run out of money.
However, things are different now that his assets had been frozen and his mobile payment services had been terminated. He was a completely penniless man.
With these valuables, Jordan would have enough money to cover his daily expenses.
In particular, he no longer needed to accept any humiliation from Chris!
Jordan reached out and grabbed a jewel necklace, which he discovered upon closer scrutiny, that it was a necklace with 11,551 diamonds weighing a total of 383.40cts!
âThis should be the most expensive necklace in the world. Itâs âA Heritage in Bloomâ thatâs worth $200 million!â
âI didnât expect Jamie to own this necklace!â
