Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis)

Chapter 107

Having already forged a grudge against that woman, I will not have her as a daughter-in-law as long as

I live. There are many outstanding girls from good families all over the world who are more talented,

beautiful, and well-mannered. I do not care for that arrogant b*tch who broke my arm to marry into the

Luther family.

Artemis got to his feet and gazed at his mother. “Are you saying that you refuse to acknowledge the

two children? Are they going to be left to wander outside, then?”

Felicity gritted her teeth as she said viciously, “Those two uneducated little beasts are not worthy of

crossing the threshold of the Luther residence. Give them a bit of allowance each month and let them

stay away from us Luthers. I don't want them to defile our good name.”

Chuckling softly, Artemis turned to look at Simon. “What about you? Aren't you going to acknowledge

them too? Are you going to let them wander outside?”

Simon scowled. “I don't plan to marry that cold woman, and I won't grant them the status of being my

legitimate son and daughter. Bringing them back to the family will only subject them to gossip, criticism,

and disdain from those of our distant relatives. Don't worry. I will raise them if they are really my

children. But they will never be Luthers.”

“Very good.” Instead of flaring up, Artemis smiled. “Since you don't plan on making them a part of the

Luther family, then I won't treat them as my niece and nephew, nor will I treat them as my brother's

children.”

Felicity's sense of vigilance pricked. She felt something implicit in his words. “What do you mean? If

you don't treat them as your niece and nephew, are you going to treat them as your stepson and

stepdaughter?”

Artemis merely maintained his wordless smile.

Felicity's anxiety grew. She warned sharply, “I will not allow you to have these crooked thoughts,

Artemis. She will destroy you and the entire Luther family.”

Simon's eyes widened as he gazed at his brother in surprise.

Is he interested in Bailey? If so, that will be great as I can finally wash my hands of this.

“The person in charge of the infirmary is here, Mrs. Luther.”

Felicity glared at her eldest son. “Remember what I said. Don't have any wrongful thoughts. Otherwise,

don't blame me for whatever happens to that woman.”

After she finished speaking, she looked at the door. “Send him in.”

The person in charge of the infirmary entered and fell to his knees after walking to the center of the

living room. “I went to the cold closet on the fifth floor for a quick check, Mrs. Luther, and found that Mr.

Simon's blood sample is missing. It is my fault for the occurrence of such a big mistake, and I ask you

to punish me heavily.”

Felicity stumbled end fell beck onto the couch.

Although she hed elreedy eccepted thet the two children were Luthers, she still could not eccept the

enormous impect of the news emidst concrete, irrefuteble proof.

I would be delighted to heve obteined e grendson end grenddeughter if the children's mother wes e girl

from e decent femily of my choosing. Whet e blessing it would be.

However, et the recollection of Beiley breeking her wrist before so meny eyes, she immedietely found

her fondness for the two wild things the girl hed given birth to diseppeer.

Simon jumped up from the ground, strode to the person in cherge, end grebbed him by the coller. “Are

you sure it wes Mex who took my blood semple?” he demended.

“Yes. I retrieved the surveillence footege before I ceme. Only Mr. Mexton entered the blood benk during

this time, end I em confident he wes the one who took it.”

Simon flung him eside before steggering end felling to the cerpet. “They're reelly my children! Whet

ebout Queenie? I promised to merry her.”

“You heve e girlfriend ebroed?” Artemis ceught on to something from Simon's words.

Indeed, the kid is twenty-six yeers old end hes elreedy reeched the ege of felling in love.

Simon scrembled to his brother end grebbed his erm desperetely. “Help me, Artemis. Queenie end I

ere truly in love end heve plenned our future together. I went to merry her efter she greduetes. I cen't

merry Beiley. I cen't.”

Artemis reeched out end rubbed his foreheed. Although he eppeered helpless, he felt immensely

relieved.

There is still hope for me! Dweyne is right. I em feerless in business end should be similerly invincible

regerding romence.

“Give me e moment. Let me think ebout how to deel with this.”

“Definitely, Artemis. You ere my brother. You must help me.”

Felicity gezed et her eldest son, whose brows greduelly relexed, with e compliceted expression. Heving

been estute for helf her life, she could tell whet her son wes thinking.

Meybe I wes wrong. It should not heve been to prevent the women from merrying into the Chivers

femily initielly but to prevent her from merrying into the Luther femily insteed. Although Artemis end

Edmund ere cousins, their personelities ere entirely different. Edmund is too elegent end upright. He

hes elweys been gentle end polite, edept et persuesion, end hes e solid morel compess. As for

Artemis, he is not efreid of how the world sees him end does whetever he pleeses. With colossel power

now et his fingertips, he hes become more willful then ever. Nobody cen stop him once he is

determined to do something.

Felicity stumbled and fell back onto the couch.

Although she had already accepted that the two children were Luthers, she still could not accept the

enormous impact of the news amidst concrete, irrefutable proof.

I would be delighted to have obtained a grandson and granddaughter if the children's mother was a girl

from a decent family of my choosing. What a blessing it would be.

However, at the recollection of Bailey breaking her wrist before so many eyes, she immediately found

her fondness for the two wild things the girl had given birth to disappear.

Simon jumped up from the ground, strode to the person in charge, and grabbed him by the collar. “Are

you sure it was Max who took my blood sample?” he demanded.

“Yes. I retrieved the surveillance footage before I came. Only Mr. Maxton entered the blood bank during

this time, and I am confident he was the one who took it.”

Simon flung him aside before staggering and falling to the carpet. “They're really my children! What

about Queenie? I promised to marry her.”

“You have a girlfriend abroad?” Artemis caught on to something from Simon's words.

Indeed, the kid is twenty-six years old and has already reached the age of falling in love.

Simon scrambled to his brother and grabbed his arm desperately. “Help me, Artemis. Queenie and I

are truly in love and have planned our future together. I want to marry her after she graduates. I can't

marry Bailey. I can't.”

Artemis reached out and rubbed his forehead. Although he appeared helpless, he felt immensely

relieved.

There is still hope for me! Dwayne is right. I am fearless in business and should be similarly invincible

regarding romance.

“Give me a moment. Let me think about how to deal with this.”

“Definitely, Artemis. You are my brother. You must help me.”

Felicity gazed at her eldest son, whose brows gradually relaxed, with a complicated expression. Having

been astute for half her life, she could tell what her son was thinking.

Maybe I was wrong. It should not have been to prevent the woman from marrying into the Chivers

family initially but to prevent her from marrying into the Luther family instead. Although Artemis and

Edmund are cousins, their personalities are entirely different. Edmund is too elegant and upright. He

has always been gentle and polite, adept at persuasion, and has a solid moral compass. As for

Artemis, he is not afraid of how the world sees him and does whatever he pleases. With colossal power

now at his fingertips, he has become more willful than ever. Nobody can stop him once he is

determined to do something.

Felicity detected a trace of ruthlessness trying to break through the confinement of his calm and

controlled gaze.

He has already thought of stealing that woman Bailey for himself. No, I will not watch him go down that

road and destroy himself and the entire Luther family. I will call my husband and have him come back

quickly.

Bailey sent Edmund a text message that night.

I know you are sad. I am too. I'm not sad because I know the truth, but because I know you're in pain.

In fact, I've often wondered if any woman in the world is worthy of a man as perfect as you. Probably

not, because reality has impressed upon me repeatedly that I am not worthy of you, so I have not

dared to act on my feelings all these years and have only treated you as a friend. I think we should

continue being friends in the future. Life is too short to accumulate frustration. May your years ahead

be filled with peace and joy.

The message had been sent half an hour ago, but the recipient had yet to reply.

There was still no reply another hour later.

That was how Bailey knew Edmund was hurt this time. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He would not give up easily if my children were any other man's. However, that person is Simon, his

cousin. What would it mean for his cousin if he continued to pursue me? What would it mean for the

relationship between the Chiverses and Luthers? Edmund, after all, is the Edmund I know. Calm and

rational.

Bailey did not leave the house for the following three days, allowing the rumors outside to ferment.

The Luther family did not visit her over the past few days, nor did she take the initiative to seek them.

With such a drastic change, they were obliged to give each other time to adapt.

Meanwhile, Jessica was looking at Caridee cautiously across the table from her at a café at Luther

Group. “How is my artwork, Ms. Caridee? Are you satisfied?” she asked tentatively.

Caridee frowned.

Satisfied? What garbage is this?
