The Abandoned Husband Dominates novel Chapter 3

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the mountain villa area of Orlando, at ten o’clock the following morning.

It was the 80th birthday celebration of the elderly matriarch of the Camdens. The birthday banquet would be held at the best hotel in Orlando.

Prior to the celebration, Old Mrs. Camden had asked everyone to gather at the villa where she lived.

“Happy birthday, Grandma!”

“Mom, I wish you longevity and live to the age of 200!”

There was a large group of people in the villa, and they were all the children and grandchildren of Old Mrs. Camden.

Old Mrs. Camden had two sons, the elder being Herman Camden and the younger being Benedict Camden, who was also Hailey’s father.

Herman had a son named Drew and a daughter named Elle, both of whom were about the same age as Hailey.

Old Mrs. Camden held the power to make decisions for the family business and had the final say on the assets, which were worth more than one hundred million dollars.

Thus, Herman and Benedict were trying their best to please Old Mrs. Camden and get into her good books, so that they would receive a greater share of the inheritance.

Old Mrs. Camden sat in the middle of the living room on a mahogany chair worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, holding a poodle and looking at the gifts she had received from her children and grandchildren. She nodded happily as she listened to their birthday wishes.

Suddenly, she saw a pile of poop excreted by the poodle under the chair.

“Where is that good-for-nothing son-in-law?” Old Mrs. Camden asked. “Get him here to clean this up.”

The good-for-nothing son-in-law who Old Mrs. Camden referred to was Jordan.

Jordan had been picking up the poodle’s feces for the past three years.

Herman looked at the room and remarked in puzzlement, “Huh? That good-for-nothing Jordan seems to be absent.”

Old Mrs. Camden got furious. “What? It’s my 80th birthday today. How dare he not show up? Hailey, what’s going on?”

Hailey answered respectfully, “He might have gone to work…”

“Work? To deliver takeout? Hahaha, that’s hilarious.” Elle gibed.

Drew began mocking too, “He’s such a disgrace to the Camdens! I ran into him once when I was driving around in my Maserati, but I didn’t even dare to tell my friends that he’s a member of our family!”

Old Mrs. Camden’s eyes burned as she yelled, “Get him to come back here now! He doesn’t know how to follow the basic rules at all!”

When she saw how angry her grandmother had become, she had no choice but to tell the truth.

“Grandma, he didn’t come today because we’re getting a divorce.”
