Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1051

Chapter 1051 Making A Scene

Artemis could hear the thick dissatisfaction in his wife's tone.

He certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to refuse. He quickly made some assurances, “Don't worry, Justin won't be able to leave Hallsbay.”

Indeed, Justin couldn't leave Hallsbay.

It was because Bill requested the flight to take off ahead of time.

By the time Justin arrived at the airport, there was nothing he could do.

Then, he received a text message from Bill: If you still want your wife and children, then stay put in Hallsbay and sort out the matters there. I'll take Vero to the royal family to stay with her sister for a while. If you decide to follow, I'm afraid Scarlett may go crazy and bite people. It won't be good if she offends the king and queen.

Even though Justin was filled with reluctance, he dared not advance any further. Dad's right. If I recklessly continue with my pursuit and end up angering Scarlett, who knows what disgusting things that woman may do? I guess I'll stay in Hallsbay and put an end to that matter once and for all.

When he received a call from Artemis and was blackmailed by the latter, he was so angry that he smashed his phone.

The next afternoon, Artemis secretly went to the Zaewora.

After seeing Artemis off, Bailey was finally free, completely letting herself go.

Seeing that as though a weight had been lifted off her shoulders, Zeke chuckled. “Don't tell me you miss him and want to meet him after two days.”

Bailey rolled her eyes. Then, she was about to head back to her place for a nap, planning to take Rainie and Juliana out for a fun night later. Suddenly, the maid approached her with a report, announcing that one Ms. Smith had come to visit.

She pondered for quite a while before she finally figured out who Ms. Smith was. I bet it's that two-faced woman Sylvester brought over. Interesting. Even though I made herself perfectly clear last night, that woman has the audacity to keep pushing. It seems her obsession with Sylvester runs deep. Would such a scheming woman like her really give up the man she's loved for years for Rainie's sake? I doubt it. She's probably taking drastic action and applying the door-in-the-face technique. Once Rainie lets her guard down, Karina will deliver the fatal blow. After the incident, no one would suspect her. She managed to extricate herself completely. It seems she's a woman of stature, certainly stronger than most who would throw themselves at Artemis upon sight.

“If you don't wish to meet her, I can have the butler reject her on your behalf.” Zeke spoke, his voice echoed in her ears, pulling her back from her wandering thoughts.

Bailey smiled. “Turning guests away is not the Shurmer family's way of hospitality. Since they've come, let's meet them. Just don't tell Rainie about it.”

After she finished speaking, she strode toward the courtyard, saying as she walked, “Have the gatekeeper lead her to the reception hall in the front yard.”

“All right.”

After being led into the living room by the security guard, Karina curiously asked the housekeeper standing nearby a question. “I heard that the famous actress, Ms. Yeanisky, has been staying at the Shurmer residence these past few days. Do you know what she's busy with?”

The maid nodded and said, “Ms. Yeanisky is currently having afternoon tea with Mrs. Luther.”

Seeing that the housekeeper was easy to talk to, Karina quickly asked, “Where are they doing so? Could you take me to meet her?”

The housekeeper remained silent, looking up at her with an indifferent expression on her face.

Realizing she had become a bit too excited, Karina coughed lightly and said with an awkward smile, “Don't get me wrong. Rainie and I are friends. So, when I heard she's at the Shurmer residence, I wanted to see her.”

Just as the housekeeper was about to speak, a teasing voice suddenly came from outside the door.

“It seems that you're here to meet Rainie, not me. However, Rainie is a guest of the Shurmer family, so it's not appropriate for us to bring you to her. If you really want to meet her, you may as well ask her out.” Upon ending her sentence, Bailey turned around, ready to leave.

Karina was taken aback for a moment, then quickly stood up from the couch. “No, no, I didn't come looking for Rainie. I came looking for you. I just heard that Rainie was here, so I asked a couple more questions.”
