Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 196

Chapter 196

Smirking, Artemis let out a chuckle before uttering in a hoarse voice, “You're probably the only one who can give me an experience like this, Ms. Bailey.”

To that, the corner of Bailey's eye twitched in disbelief. That's not what I expected to hear. What do I do with this guy? The level of shamelessness this jerk displays completely blew my mind.

“Is that so? Then, why don't you have another?” With that, Bailey drove her heel into the man's foot forcefully once again.

Even under the dim lighting, the woman could clearly see Artemis' good-looking facial features begin to contort.

Bailey then proceeded to stomp Artemis a few more times before questioning him with a cold smile. “How about now? Are you enjoying yourself?”

In response, Artemis grabbed Bailey by the waist with one hand and caressed her cheek with the other. “Oh, yes. I believe I'll enjoy myself even more if we get to indulge in this exchange more deeply,” insisted the man through gritted teeth.

After hearing that, Bailey lost her patience to continue with Artemis' little game.

“Are you done flirting, Mr. Luther? Your sister is about to reach the stage, and when she does, they're going to turn the lights back on. Just imagine how we're going to hit the headlines tomorrow when everyone sees us like this. Everyone will lose their mind.”

Artemis leaned in and pecked Bailey on the cheek with his tender lips, taking every opportunity to tease her. “You heard my grandfather. He's ready to announce your marriage with Edmund to the entire upper class. I want to know what you is in your mind.”

“What if I told you that I'm looking forward to the announcement and that I can't wait to receive blessings from the crowd beside Edmund? What then?” sneered Bailey.

With his arms suddenly tightening around the woman's waist, an icy-cold glint flashed across Artemis' eyes. “You're playing with fire here. Do you know that?”

The man then got closer to Bailey's ear. “If you do that, I'll bed you tonight and have Edmund know what it's like to be cheated on.”

“You're insane!”

In a flash, a sharp blade suddenly appeared on Artemis' neck.

“All I have to do is flick my wrist, and this world will be short of a man named Artemis Luther. How are you going to do that when you're dead? With your spirit?”

Instead of saying anything in response, Artemis simply smiled at Bailey, who tightened her grip on the knife.

If the woman just applied a little more force on the weapon, she would cut Artemis' neck open and cause him to bleed to death.

However, Bailey did not do that. She pushed the man away and said coldly, “I planned to leave early. If it weren't for you, I would've been gone by now.”

“Good girl. This is what I like about you. I'd rather not waste my time disciplining my girl.” Artemis patted Bailey on the face in a frivolous demeanor.

“Can I leave now?” inquired Bailey, narrowing her eyes at the man.

“Go. Don't get caught.”

Bailey then lifted her foot once again and kicked Artemis in the knee before sneaking away while the man groaned in pain.

“Da*n you, woman! I'll get you one day!”

When she heard Artemis cursing, Bailey instinctively smirked. That's for taking advantage of me. He should be grateful that I went for his knee instead of his manhood.

The woman glanced at the stage from behind the crowd as she left the place.

Sitting in front of a harp was Caridee skillfully playing a beautiful tune and serenading her guests.

Meanwhile, Susan spun elegantly in the center of the stage. Her dance moves were captivating and lively.
