Chapter 220: Cayden’s mysterious cabinet!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jordan didn’t care how many years Arnold had been working for Perry Express and how he had slogged his guts out for the company.
Now that Jordan was the boss behind Perry Express, he could fire anyone he wanted!
However, it seemed too easy of punishment if he were to just fire Arnold.
Jordan suddenly thought of the mysterious locker that Cayden had at the golf course.
This was the information Jordan had overheard in Hailey’s hotel room in Japan.
After returning to the US, he sent Pablo to check it out. Still, even with a membership, some places in that golf course were exclusive to individuals of a certain class, so Pablo couldn’t even get close.
Jordan was afraid that he might alarm the target if he were to resort to forceful means.
He could instead use Hailey to get close to that locker, but he didn’t want to ask her out because every time the two met alone, it seemed like something wrong would happen…
Now, he could use Arnold to get close to that locker.
So, Jordan walked towards Tim again and said, “Punk, listen carefully to what I’m saying to you now.”
“Call Arnold later, but he might first ask if you’re a homosexual or not.”
“Just say you’re not and that it’s your boss, Cayden Huxley, who had forced you to post that photo on Instagram because he wanted to tease you.”
Tim was stunned. “My boas, Cayden Huxley?”
Jordan nodded and said, “Just say that after you were fired from Perry Express, you started working as Cayden’s chauffeur in Breezy Express. Tell him that after Cayden found out that you used to work for Perry Express, he kept bullying you and took you to the bar to drink.”
“However, although you were getting bullied, you overheard Cayden’s secret.”
“You found out that he has a private locker in the golf course at Great Mountain Villas, in which there are many confidential documents of Breezy Express. Tell Arnold that once he gets these documents, he can deal Breezy Express a huge blow!”
Tim was brilliant, so he quickly understood what Jordan meant. “Understood!”
“Make the call,” Jordan commanded.
Tim immediately called Arnold.
As he had expected, the first thing Arnold said was, “What’s the matter with you, kid? Do you like men? Do you know your parents will break down because of this? Hurry up and change it!”
Tim laughed and said, “Uncle, I don’t like men. I’m straight! My boss wanted to play a prank on me, so he forced me to post that on Instagram.”
“Your boss? You’ve got a new job again? Didn’t you plan to leave New York City in a few days and go abroad for a few days?” Arnold asked.
Tim answered, “Yes, I went to your rival, Breezy Express, where I’m working as a chauffeur now.”
“Breezy Express!” Arnold was shocked. “Who is the boss who pulled a prank on you?”
“Cayden Huxley!” Tim answered.
Arnold said, “So it’s that little bastard Cayden. The last time he asked me to boycott Victoria, I didn’t comply. Could it be that he’s deliberately humiliating you because he knows that you’re related to me?”
Tim glanced at Jordan, and after catching the hint in Jordan’s eyes, he immediately replied.
“Yes, yes, yes, I just mentioned that you’re my uncle, and he started to humiliate me by forcing me to drink and put on women’s clothes, followed by that Instagram post!”
“Uncle, my mom just called, you know what she said? She…”
Tim started crying as he talked about himself.
At this point, Jordan frowned, and Tim immediately stopped babbling nonsense.
“You foul-mouthed rascal.” Jordan shook his head.
However, Tim seemed to be a natural at telling lies.
Arnold rebuked furiously, “Your mother is right! She’s just concerned about you!”
“Tim, will definitely take you with him everywhere he goes now so that he can bully you. Take the opportunity to observe what kind of people he associates with and find some evidence against him!”
Arnold had long wanted to arrange someone to go over to Breezy Express, and Tim made for a good pawn.
Tim said excitedly, “Uncle Arnold, that’s precisely what I called you for! I just overheard that he has a private locker that contains his family’s trade secrets in the golf course of Great Mountain Villas!”
“Uncle, if you can get the things in that locker, you can definitely help Perry Express defeat Breezy Express. Miss Audrey might then promote you to become the president of Perry Express. Hahaha…”
Tim’s loud laughter soon faded as he saw Pablo and Jordan glowering at him sternly.
Jordan was speechless. ‘This rascal is so immersed in the role!’
He had already planned for his uncle to replace Victoria as president after getting this matter done!
It was a shame that he wasn’t an actor.
“Locker? What locker? Tell me clearly, what exactly did they say!” Arnold asked seriously.
Tim immediately whispered, “I can’t tell you. Cayden is coming over now. I’ll call you back later.”
“Hey, Mr. Cayden, I’ll be right there!”
Tim hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Tm immediately said to Jordan, “Jordan, Uncle Arnold asked a question that you didn’t give me an answer for. I was afraid I’d let the cat out of the bag, so I hung up. Please don’t be angry.”
Jordan smiled. ‘This kid is pretty smart.’
However, people with glib tongues are generally unreliable and disloyal.
Jordan said, “Next, I will arrange for you to become Cayden Huxley’s chauffeur. You’d better obey my instructions, or else, I will arrange you to be with a beast and not a man next.”
Tim panicked immediately. “I’ll definitely obey you, trust me.”
Jordan didn’t have to believe Tim. It would be best if Tim was compliant and behaved himself. Otherwise, he would just teach him a lesson.
Jordan added, “Also, you don’t need to feel bad for lying to Arnold. Judging from your mother’s tone of voice, you must be adopted. So, Arnold isn’t your uncle.”
Tim started weeping on the ground after hearing his words.
…
Three days later.
Jordan came to New York City International Airport to pick up Victoria.
Victoria returned together, and when Jordan saw Arnold, he felt an urge to punch him.
However, Arnold hadn’t crossed the line with Victoria after all, and he was still of some use to Jordan.
On the other hand, Arnold did not know that he had already fallen into Jordan’s trap and become his pawn.
When he saw Jordan, he questioned arrogantly and condescendingly, “Oh, you’re here, Mr.. Steele. How are things going in the training department?”
