Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21

Zayron blinked and plastered a cunning smile before calling the number.

“Dummy, are you sure she's making the soup for your dad?”

“Yup. I overheard it when she was talking to my grandma. Anyway, the soup is almost ready. Please think of a way for me to mess with her.”

Zayron snickered as an evil glint flashed across his eyes. “Go to the Luther residence's infirmary to get some drugs that could arouse a man. Then, add some into the soup.”

On the other end of the line, Maxton frowned upon hearing it. After a while, he grew cautious. “Are you setting up a trap? If I do that, my daddy will end up sleeping with her. Once that happens, they will have to get married soon. I'm trying to mess with her here, and you're doing the opposite. My goodness. Your idea sucks.”

Oops...

Zayron touched his nose. I initially wanted to teach that sly fox a lesson, but the dummy is sharp-minded enough not to fall for it.

“I didn't mean to set a trap. Think about it, won't your daddy feel disgusted by her once he knows she drugs him? Not only will the tyrant not marry her, but he will even drive her out of the house. Just listen to me, and everything will go as planned.”

I'm not that stupid to listen to you!

“My daddy has no immunity to drugs. He will turn into a beast even if he consumes a little of them. I mean, I wouldn't have been born seven years ago if he could control himself. Hence, I'm worried he will lose his rationality and can't hold his desire back. Everything will be too late if that happens.”

“How stupid! Can't you reduce the dosage until it's just enough for him to notice he's drugged? Why must you turn him into a beast?”

Um...

Nonetheless, Maxton still thought it was unethical to drug his father, lest it backfired and would end in the latter not getting married.

“Um, do you have another way that is not as wicked?”

Zayron replied without hesitation, “Nope. I've already proposed my idea. It's now up to you to decide. This is the most normal way of framing someone, and she has no way to deny it, which makes things easier.”

After moments of silence, Maxton gnashed his teeth and said, “All right. I'll heed your advice.”

Hearing that, Zayron could not help but smile to himself.

That's right. Just listen to me.

Meanwhile, Bailey stood in front of the imposing building of Luther Group's headquarters. Looking up, Bailey could not help but gasp in astonishment.

Luther Group's headquarters showcased its status as the top national company and one of the world's top ten brands. The gigantic business empire was a remarkable feat that numerous young talents hoped for but could not achieve.

Yet, the ruthless and decisive Artemis made it in merely eight years.

Bailey had to admit that Rhonda was fortunate. Not only had she slept with Artemis, but she also bore him a son and became the most honorable woman among all prominent figures in Hallsbay.

“Hello, may I know if you're Ms. Jefferson?”

Upon hearing a polite female voice, Bailey came to her senses.

Turning around, she saw a woman in a formal outfit and smiled at the latter.

“I am. And you are?”

The female staff flashed her a faint smile and replied courteously, “I'm the assistant to Mr. Stephen Chandler, the director of the Luther Group's design department. Mr. Chandler looks forward to meeting with you, and he sent me here to welcome you.”
