Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154

Bailey froze on the spot.

Unauthorized practice of medicine? Me?

At the mention of that, her lips curved into a smirk.

If my guess is correct, Mrs. Luther must be behind this again.

Indeed, Bailey didn't have a medical license, so she could really be imprisoned if Felicity reported her.

I don't get why she hates me so much. Old Mr. Chivers is already on the verge of death. The cancer cells are spreading quickly. Shouldn't she be putting all her effort into taking care of him now? How does she even still have the time to mess with me?

“Let me get this straight, sir. You're saying I'm under arrest for unauthorized practice of medicine? What do you mean by that?”

The officer nodded but responded with a question instead, “Did you sign an agreement to operate on a Mr. Glen Chivers yesterday, Ms. Jefferson?”

“I did. Is there a problem with that?”

The officer glanced at her in puzzlement.

Is she playing dumb, or is she really this stupid? Doesn't she realize the graveness of the situation she's in?

“According to our information, you have no medical qualifications, nor have you ever delved into this field. You certainly haven't had any experience tending to patients either, so how could you agree to perform such a major and risky surgery on Old Mr. Chivers?”

He then hesitated for a moment before adding, “We received a report from Mrs. Felicity Luther saying that you're a threat to Old Mr. Chivers. I don't know if there's some sort of a misunderstanding, but for now, please come with us and cooperate with us in our investigations.”

Bailey scoffed as she heard that.

I knew it was her. It looks like she won't give up until I bring her down completely.

“Fine. Give me a moment. I have to pack a few belongings before I come with you.”

“Very well.”

Back at Luther Group, Dwayne was relaying the information he had just received to Artemis inside the latter's office. “The police have taken Ms. Jefferson from her condominium on the grounds of unauthorized practice of medicine, Mr. Luther. Should I engage our team of lawyers to bail her out?”

Artemis twirled the pen in his hand lightly as he fell into thought. “Bailey probably doesn't have any relevant licenses under her name, so my mother took advantage of that. It's no use getting our lawyers to protect her. The public would accuse us of shielding her, and that'd only hurt her reputation.”

“Then what should we do? It's too late to apply for a license now. Why didn't this issue ever cross our minds? If we knew that Ms. Jefferson didn't have a license, we would've never let her sign that document! We could've just let her perform the surgery in secret. Now we're in a mess.”

Artemis raised an eyebrow and scoffed. “The more they try to mess with Bailey, the more reputable she becomes. She never wanted to disclose her identity as Anonymous, but now that all this has happened, she won't be able to hide it much longer.”

Dwayne's eyes lit up as he slapped his own forehead. “Of course! How could I have forgotten? Bailey's never applied for a medical license under her own name, but surely she's done that under her alias, right? That means we just need to prove to the judges that she's actually Anonymous.”
