Inside the private room, Colton and the others were snickering with the mentality of watching the fun. With one leg crossed over the other, Chelsea stared at Jordan in displeasure, every part the domineering female president.
"Jordan, I heard Maggie telling Colton and the others yesterday that Maggie is an artiste signed to your company, and that I'm your subordinate who's under your control. Is that true?"
A smile appeared on Colton's face and he hurriedly interjected, "We can all confirm that Jordan did say that to us yesterday."
"Yes, you were arrogant about it too." Another male classmate added fuel to the fire.
Colton and the others were glad to see Jordan making a fool out of himself. If the few of them weren't around today, Jordan would probably still deny it. However, the people who attended the gathering yesterday were all present and no matter how cunning Jordan was, they couldn't resist it!
"Hmph, Jordan Steele, you liar. Let's see how you can deny again today!"
Colton was secretly pleased, thinking to himself that it must be over for Jordan today!
Jordan kept his back straight while standing and looking at Chelsea with a calm smile on his face. He said softly, "By the way, I did say those words before."
Bam!
Chelsea suddenly slammed her right hand onto the table, causing the cutlery on the table to fall out of the bowl and drop onto the ground.
Chelsea flew into a rage and exclaimed with a shocking aura, "Bastard! Jordan Steele you punk. I don't know you at all. It's our first time meeting today. Who are you to say that I'm your subordinate? How dare you use me to pretend and con so many people? Did you cheat my artistes out of their money?!
"It seems that I have to call the police and arrest you, you fraudster. You have to be brought back for further interrogation!"
While saying that, Chelsea was about to call the police.
Maggie, who was at the side, frantically pulled Chelsea and said, "Ms. Adams, don't. Jordan knows Director Smith. If you call the police to get him arrested, it will indirectly ruin our relationship with Director Smith."
Chelsea shook off Maggie and reprimanded, "You silly girl. If he really knows Director Smith, why would he have to use me to pretend to be impressive!?"
Director Smith was more than ten times more famous than Chelsea and he also had a higher status than her. Hence, Chelsea was sure that Jordan didn't know Director Smith at all.
To his surprise, Colton stood forth at this moment to plead for Jordan too.
Colton said, "Ms. Adams, don't call the police yet. Jordan is the husband of one of our former high school classmates. It'd be quite unpleasant if he were to be put behind bars."
Jordan was stunned for a moment, surprised that Colton would plead for him.
Things were probably not that simple!
Sure enough, the next thing Colton said was, "How about this? Get him to kneel and apologize to you. Then, forgive him just once. How does that sound?"
"Kneel and apologize?"
Jordan and Chelsea were both stunned.
Chelsea sized Jordan up. Chelsea worked in the entertainment industry so she was used to seeing handsome men and beautiful women every day.
She actually realized that Jordan was quite handsome at this moment. He was also tall and fit, which made him a perfect candidate for being a celebrity.
Chelsea had a sinister smile on her face. Making such an arrogant and handsome man get on his knees in front of her was something that made her feel a great sense of accomplishment! As a successful career woman, she felt that women were superior to men and liked subduing men.
Thus, she put down her phone and said, "Okay, Jordan Steele, considering that you're still quite good-looking, I'll give you a chance to get on your knees and apologize to me."
Chelsea was implying that Jordan wouldn't be qualified to kneel to her if she was ugly. It was as if she was bestowing kindness to him.
Jordan could not help but laugh twice as he exclaimed, "Haha, you want me to kneel to you? Do you think you're worthy!?!"
Chelsea flew into a rage immediately. "What? Did you just say that I'm not qualified? You bastard, if you look down on me, don't go around swindling using my name!"
"Dad, why are you here?" Chelsea asked happily.
Keith took off his sunglasses, patted Chelsea's head with a smile and ignored her. However, she first entered and looked at Jordan.
Keith bent forward towards Jordan and said respectfully, "Mr. Steele! I'm very sorry for being late, there was a flight delay!"
Yesterday, Keith was still getting high with a few small-time models and had taken an early flight over.
Everyone was stunned. Jordan actually knew Keith who was Chelsea's father!
Besides, Keith actually treated Jordan so respectfully!
"No... Impossible..."
Colton was terrified.
Jordan took a look at Keith and found that this old guy was really energetic-looking. He didn't seem to be in his sixties at all.
"Mr. Steele, please sit down."
Keith asked Jordan to take the seat inside.
Afterward, Keith rebuked Chelsea, "Chelsea, hurry up and pour tea to apologize to Mr. Steele!"
"Oh... Yes..."
Chelsea frantically picked up the teapot and poured Jordan a cup of tea before picking it up with both hands respectfully and bending forward to hand it over to Jordan.
However, Jordan did not take the teacup and instead said, "Your position is wrong!"
