Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 130

Chapter 130

Artemis had seen that coming.

Around two days ago, he discovered the grudges between Anonymous and Cadence, so he deliberately mentioned the name before Veronique today.

Artemis was sure that Veronique would contact Anonymous immediately. Thus, he sent someone to wiretap her communication devices after she left the Luther residence and ordered Ken to tail her in secret.

As she went to meet Bailey, that could only mean one thing—Bailey was related to Anonymous.

They might even be the same person.

“Got it. You can leave now. Be careful so they won't discover you've been tailing them,” he reminded.

“Yes.”

After the call ended, Artemis stood before the window silently. The night sky reflected in his deep, unfathomable gaze.

A brief silence later, he scrolled to Dwayne's number and gave the latter a call.

When the call got through, he ordered, “Contact Prince Dodi from Eskaria and tell him I'll video call him tomorrow.”

“Why?” Dwayne's confused voice rang out. “Why do you want to contact a member of the Eskarian royal family all of a sudden?”

Arching a brow, Artemis revealed, “I might know who Anonymous is, but I need Prince Dodi to confirm it.”

“Well...” Dwayne hesitated. “Back when Anonymous operated on the King of Eskaria, he must've agreed not to reveal her identity to the public. I'm afraid video-calling him won't work.”

“Just do as I say.”

“Fine. I'll contact the Eskarian embassy and see if they can set up a special line for you to video call Prince Dodi.”

The next day, Bailey stepped out of the headquarters of Luther Group at noon and ran into Edmund immediately.

“Why are you here?” she asked.

Edmund hurried up the stairs and took her briefcase from her. Grinning, he explained, “My grandpa would like to meet his future granddaughter-in-law. Ms. Jefferson, are you free to come with me now?”

Bailey gave a light nod. Sighing, she said, “Edmund, your aunt hates me. If I show up at the Luther residence, she might suffer from a heart attack and even cough out blood.”

“My grandpa moved back to the Chivers residence last night. Don't worry. I won't let you see Aunt Felicity and make things difficult for you.”

Frowning, Bailey replied in resignation, “That won't do, either. Your father hates me, and I don't want you to be put on the spot.”

Artemis hod seen thot coming.

Around two doys ogo, he discovered the grudges between Anonymous ond Codence, so he deliberotely mentioned the nome before Veronique todoy.

Artemis wos sure thot Veronique would contoct Anonymous immediotely. Thus, he sent someone to wiretop her communicotion devices ofter she left the Luther residence ond ordered Ken to toil her in secret.

As she went to meet Boiley, thot could only meon one thing—Boiley wos reloted to Anonymous.

They might even be the some person.

“Got it. You con leove now. Be coreful so they won't discover you've been toiling them,” he reminded.

“Yes.”
