Chapter 229: Weeping Emily!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The mont Emily heard the gunshot, she was so frightened that her legs went limp.
Jordan, standing outside the door, was just as shocked because he knew how dangerous firearms were.
It wasn’t surprising that ordinary citizens carried guns with them.
However, it was shocking that a shooting would occur in a prestigious hotel like the Ritz Carlton.
“I didn’t expect it to be so unsafe even in a five-star hotel.”
Jordan was glad that he had co over to look for Emily. Otherwise, it would be terrible if sothing happened to her.
The man who had just shot soone dead happened to see Jordan standing outside Emily’s door, and he quickly walked over while holding up his gun.
“Hey man, calm down, calm down!”
Jordan tried to calm the man down while reaching into his pocket for his cell phone.
On the other hand, Emily, who was in the hotel room, imdiately asked after hearing his words, “Jordan, what’s happening outside? Is soone shooting with a gun? Hurry up and co inside. I’ll open the door for you!”
Emily imdiately opened the door, but Jordan stopped her. “Don’t open the door! Lock the door and stay inside!”
Emily muttered, “Jordan…”
At this mont, Emily felt a strong urge to cry, but she didn’t dare to let her tears roll down her cheeks.
She realized at this mont that the tall n she liked, who made her feel safe, were not of any help at all.
If Cayden was outside, he would have probably risked getting Emily involved and knocked hard on the door to get her to let him in.
However, Jordan was extrely concerned about her safety and valued her life more than his own!
However, as the saying goes, one should never take on a task without the required skills.
Jordan did so because he had been practicing martial arts since he was little and had trained hard on the battlefield before. Hence, he had long been experienced in fighting barehanded against an ard enemy.
However, the man completely ignored Jordan’s warning.
Jordan took out his cell phone and flung it out!
If there were bystanders, they would definitely find Jordan’s incredible speed and the precision of his angle breathtaking.
His phone darted towards the man’s face.
At the sa ti, Jordan quickly took off the watch on his left wrist.
Whenever Jordan goes out without a weapon, he would surely wear a watch, but unlike those n who wear watches to show off their statuses and pretend to be impressive, Jordan does so for self-defense.
He would never wear watches with leather straps, and all the watches he wore had steel straps.
Only watches with steel straps would deal his opponents a painful blow, thus allowing him to instantly defeat his opponents or buy ti for himself.
His watch had a special chanism that would make it automatically fall off as soon as it was given a hard smack.
Picking up the heavy watch, Jordan quickly flung it out forcefully. This ti, it was flung directly into the opponent’s gun-wielding hand.
The man’s eye was first smashed by the phone, so his vision was blocked too. He wanted to blindly fire, but he was quickly hit in the wrist by the watch, causing his pistol to fall to the ground.
These actions were almost completed in an instant.
Jordan rolled over, kicked the gun to the side, and knocked the man down with two punches.
A normal person would not be able to remain sober after being punched twice by Jordan- not even Mike Tyson in his pri. Moreover, they were caught off guard.
Afterward, Jordan called the service staff who had long been hiding to co over and clean up the scene. When the police arrived, they specifically deployed more police officers to tighten security in the hotel. Jordan then proceeded to knock on Emily’s door again.
Knock-knock.
Emily opened the door, and when she saw that Jordan was safe and sound, she burst into tears and leaped over to hug him.
She cried, “Thank God, you’re okay… If sothing untoward had happened to you, how would I explain to Victoria? She’d definitely be devastated.”
Jordan had never seen a girl cry so hard before.
Jordan gently stroked Emily’s hair and tried not to hug her too tightly. He said with a smile, “Emily, I’m fine, aren’t I? Even if sothing happened to , you don’t have to cry like this for . It’s our first eting anyway, and we don’t know each other that well.”
Jordan was touched to see how hard Emily was bawling because it ant that she approved of him.
Emily sobbed and said, “You don’t understand. Victoria and I can’t experience the loss of our loved ones again.”
“Our father was murdered when he was abroad.”
“Is that so?” Jordan sighed emotionally.
He knew that Victoria and Emily’s father had passed away abroad when they were young.
However, he didn’t know that he had been murdered.
“Has the murderer been found?” Jordan asked with concern.
Emily shook her head and said, “I’m not sure about this matter, but my sister has been looking for the murderer for years. However, it seems that she has not given up yet.”
Jordan nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I have many friends abroad. I’ll definitely help you guys find the murderer.”
“Okay.” Emily nodded.
Afterward, Emily pulled Jordan into the room and asked him to take a seat. She then said to him amicably, “Jordan, I’m not the kind of girl who would casually check into a hotel room with soone just after knowing them for a day.”
“I don’t know how Cayden found out about my life, and he deliberately told that his parents have passed and then pretended to have t by coincidence at the mall. He even used the sa na as you…”
“Anyway, there were many coincidences, and they made feel that he and I are fated to et each other. That’s why I…”
Jordan gently stroked Emily’s hair and said, “Emily, I know you are a good girl. Cayden had devised this plan carefully to lure and deceive you.”
“Before that, a few of his friends had already t you, and they’ve all gained a clear understanding of your life and your preferences.”
Emily ca to a sudden realization and said, “It’s no wonder that he even knows what I like to eat! This bunch of scumbags is really malicious.”
Jordan said, “Don’t worry, I’ll teach those four guys a good lesson when I return.”
“Thank you, my dear brother-in-law! Well, I’m afraid that sothing else will happen at night. Why don’t you stay here tonight instead of leaving?” Emily said timidly.
It wasn’t the first ti Jordan had slept on the ground. When he went on vacations with Hailey in the past, he had always slept on the ground in the hotel room.
“Okay, I’ll sleep on the floor then,” Jordan said.
To his surprise, Emily grabbed his hand and pulled him to the bed. She said, “What for? We can just chat all night or play gas. Do you play PUBG? Or MyWorld?”
“Uh…”
Jordan thought, ‘Isn’t MyWorld a ga for kids?’
Jordan chuckled and said, “Let’s not play gas. There is sothing I want to ask you.”
“Go ahead.”
“So ti from now, I plan to propose to your sister. Has she ever told you what her dream proposal is like? Is it on so island or at ho? Apart from the ring and flowers, what else do I need to prepare?”
