Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23

“Get lost.”

Artemis grabbed the documents on the table and smashed them on her head. “If you don't want to die, stop challenging my patience, or I will kill you.”

Rhonda was frightened by the cold hostility in his eyes, and she took a few steps back in fear.

At that moment, she fully believed what the man said. If she continued to pester him, he would definitely murder her.

Artemis had never been a considerate and tender man. Instead, he had a complicated background and would sometimes get his hands dirty. He was known for his cruel way of doing things. Those who offended him would bear the terrible consequences.

“If you still won't leave, I will send Maxton abroad. As for you, you should pack up and return to the Jefferson residence.”

Rhonda widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief.

Why? Why? He is obviously on the verge of losing control, but why won't he touch me?

Even at this point, Artemis still had no interest in her.

The cruel realization was a devastating blow to Rhonda.

She staggered toward the door under Artemis' ferocious glower.

The place had become too depressing and suffocating for her that she could no longer stick around.

Her heart was filled with hatred and fury as she stumbled away.

The surging jealousy and indignance within her almost exploded as every cell in her body screeched resentfully.

Bailey was even sent to the hospital because of what Artemis did to her seven years ago. I heard the doctors say that she couldn't move anymore. Why can't that be me? We're both women, and he touched Bailey when he was drugged, so why can't he do the same to me? Why? Does he hate me that much? I'm better than that b*tch Bailey in terms of looks, education, family background, everything! I also love him more than she does! So, why?

At the end of the corridor, the doors of the elevator slid open.

Just as Bailey was about to step out of the elevator, a slender figure bumped into her, causing her to take a few steps back.

When she saw the person's face clearly, she subconsciously furrowed her brows.

It's Rhonda. Why is she at Luther Group? Oh, that's right. She's now the wife of the CEO of Luther Group, so it is normal for her to appear in the company. But there's something wrong with her. She looks like she's on the verge of breaking down.

Rhonda didn't even recognize her mortal enemy when she ran into the latter. She was too preoccupied as she continuously slammed the button in the elevator.

Bailey hung her head and strode out of the elevator, not wanting to get entangled with her. Almost as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, the doors behind her slammed shut.

Bailey was confused.

What happened to her?

The entire top floor was silent. When she passed by the secretary's room, there was no one in it.

Bailey looked down at the watch on her wrist that showed the time half past twelve.

No wonder it's so quiet. I'm just in time for the lunch break.

The door of the CEO's office was left ajar when she arrived. After a few moments of hesitation, she gritted her teeth and pushed open the revolving door.

The wide space in front of her immediately caused a strong visual impact.

The large office that was hundreds of square meters wide was exquisitely and luxuriously decorated. One could tell it was designed by a famous interior designer, as every inch and corner of the room perfectly corresponded.

Bailey's gaze fell on the surrounding shelves, and she couldn't help praising inwardly. Tsk tsk, any random piece of antique here is worth millions. As expected from the office of a super-rich man like Artemis.
