Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173

Bailey felt her heart lurch.

“Out with it. Stop talking in riddles.”

Zayron gulped, and in a trembling voice, he muttered, “T-There's really something off with him here...”

Hearing that, Felicity glared over and growled, “Shut your mouth! Don't you dare curse my grandson! Now get out of my sight!”

Ignoring her, Zayron scoffed coldly.

I doubt this old hag can do anything to me, not while Artemis is still here, so there's no reason for me to fear her.

After getting the confirmation from her son, Bailey felt her heart wrench.

So, in the end, the worst still happened? This is the last thing I wanted to see... But even if I managed to treat him in time, there was no way he would have left this incident unscathed, since the drug had already damaged his nervous system.

After standing rooted to the spot for a while, Bailey walked over to the bed.

However, before she could reach it, Felicity blocked her path. Bailey's tone was unfriendly when she said, “If you don't want your grandson to live the rest of his life as a mentally challenged boy, get out of my way.”

Felicity was about to refute her when she was held back by Simon and Caridee. The siblings then dragged her away.

“Let go of me! You insolent brats! I said let go of me!”

“Mom, please, stop it. If Bailey can save Granddad, she can treat Max, too. This may not be what you wanted to hear, but Bailey is probably the only person who could save your grandson.”

Felicity halted. In truth, she knew that from a rational point of view, Bailey was indeed the only person who could save her precious grandson.

But if I accept this woman, won't I be humiliating myself?

Bailey went to stand beside the bed before stretching out a hand to pull Maxton to face her.

“Max, it's me, Bay. Didn't you say that you've always liked me?”

Maxton poked his head out from between his legs and gave Bailey a once-over. The next moment, he started to giggle while saliva dripped down the corners of his mouth.

Um...

For a moment, Bailey was at a loss on what to do.

Is the boy who's grinning at me with an empty look in his eyes while saliva stream down his mouth really the cool and handsome young heir of the Luther family?

Bailey could not accept such a reality, and her mind went blank.

Although I was aware that he would become mentally challenged, I didn't expect it would be to this extent.

“Max, do you know who I am?”

In response, Maxton stared at her for a moment before he did something that completely caught her off guard.

He put his index finger into his mouth and started suckling on it, all while giggling like a fool.

Seeing the state her grandson was reduced to, Felicity could not bear the shock. Her eyes rolled back into her head, and she fainted on the spot.

Artemis shifted his gaze from his son and said to Simon, “Take Mom back to the Luther residence. Stay with her, and don't let her come to the Chivers residence for the time being.”

After he recovered from the shock, Simon did as told and carried Felicity in his arms.

His knees buckled as he staggered for a few steps before he found his balance.

Now that Maxton's become like this, it means that the Luther family just lost our heir. This is a huge blow to the family. Even I myself can't accept such an outcome, let alone Mom, who loves Maxton so much.
