Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1044

Chapter 1044 Malicious Intent

It's Veronique. I can't believe Justin was with Veronique. How is this possible? Veronique died two months ago. Why was she with Justin? This is impossible.

“Mrs. Fletcher, these photos must be old photos. Veronique has passed away. It won't change a thing even if you've come here to confront me. We can't possibly pick a fight with a dead person,” Olivia tried to explain.

Tamara sneered. “Is that so? The suit he's wearing was tailored for him by the Xuereb family's fashion team just two weeks ago. Meanwhile, the second daughter of the Revelle family passed away two months ago, and he's seen wearing a suit made just half a month ago in a photo with a deceased person. Mrs. Xuereb, are you joking with me?”

Olivia's face paled, and she hastily lowered her head to examine the suit Justin was wearing in the photos.

Indeed, it was tailored just two weeks ago, and she had personally given instructions to the fashion team for the customization. She had even chosen the style herself, so it was one-of-a-kind in the world.

In other words, that little wretch from the Revelle family wasn't dead at all. They claimed she was dead to the outside world, just to protect her and prevent anyone from harming her.

I can't believe Justin and the Revelle family played me like a fool.

“Mrs. Fletcher, I swear I had no idea about this. If I had known that little b*tch was still alive, I would never have let her off so easily,” Olivia hurriedly explained.

Tamara's expression remained inscrutable, making it unclear whether she believed Olivia's explanation or not.

After a brief pause, she clenched her teeth and demanded, “Where is Justin, that infuriating idiot? Tell him to get his a*s down here right now! If he doesn't provide me with a satisfactory explanation today, then let's cancel this marriage. We might as well proceed with a divorce agreement.”

Olivia panicked.

Divorce? I can't let that happen! Once they divorce, the Fletcher family will no longer care about the fate of my family!

“Mrs. Fletcher, don't you think that's a bit unnecessary? The young couple just got married yesterday. How could they possibly—”

Olivia's words were abruptly cut off when Scarlett, who had hurried over to inspect the photos, broke into tears. In the midst of her sobs, she accused, “He didn't come home last night, leaving me all alone in an empty room. I initially assumed something happened at the research base. Looking back, I realize how gullible I was. After all, what could be more important than one's wedding night? Turns out the reason he didn't return is that he went to be with Veronique. You people are simply heartless, deceiving me like this.”

Upon learning that Justin had not returned the entire night, Tamara was instantly incensed. She shot a severe look at Olivia and, through clenched teeth, issued a warning, “Mrs. Xuereb, if you don't deal with that woman, you'll leave me no choice but to have my daughter leave the Xuereb family. You had better handle this properly.”

Having made herself clear, Tamara marched toward the door.

Olivia intended to follow, but Scarlett intercepted her.

“My mother is extremely upset right now, so it's better not to agitate her further, as it might make things worse. The top priority now is to convince her not to consider taking me away,” Scarlett advised.

Olivia halted in her tracks, her countenance darkening and paling.

Scarlett added, “It wasn't easy for my mother to finally agree to help the Campbell family, and that was all for my sake. If she were to take me away, I fear the Campbell family would not meet a good end.”

Olivia grew frantic as she reached out to grasp Scarlett's wrist, pleading, “Lettie, you must help me. Please help me.”

A sinister glint flickered deep within Scarlett's eyes, but outwardly, she presented herself as delicate and pitiable.

“I really want to help you, but unless Justin severs all ties with Veronique, my mother won't allow me to continue being part of the Xuereb family.”

Hearing that, Olivia began murmuring incessantly as if she were possessed. “Sever all ties... Yes, he must sever all ties with Veronique. After everything I've done, I can't let anything go wrong at the last moment.”
