Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 259

Chapter 259

Artemis has ordered the staff of the City Hall to keep that matter a secret. It couldn't have leaked from there. This means... “Do you know who spread the news?”

Sebastian shook his head. “It was sent to us by an anonymous person. I tried to find out who they were, but I couldn't locate their IP address.”

“Let me try.” Bailey grabbed his laptop. “Where's the original file?”

Sebastian pointed at an email on the screen. “Here.”

“Okay.” Bailey clicked on the original file on the email, and her fingers began dancing on the keyboard.

Moments later, she narrowed her eyes and informed, “This is sent from Century Square. The person who sent it was probably using their personal account.”

Then she hacked into the surveillance system at Century Square.

As the screen displayed the live footage captured by the cameras, her eyes focused on one particular footage. “Isn't that Rhonda? Why is she at Century Square? And why are there so many people?”

Sebastian shrugged with a grin. “Where there are women, there are lots of people. Look, there's another familiar face in the crowd. If my memory serves me right, I think that woman's the internationally famous Ms. Zoey from the Shurmer family.”

That stunned her a little. She followed the direction he was pointing and saw Zoey hiding in the crowd.

Upon zooming into the footage, she could clearly see Zoey's sinister and strange smile.

“I think I get it now.” Sebastian raised his voice. “Ms. Shurmer must've asked someone to send this news to me. There are many people in the mall right now, so if news about Rhonda and Mr. Luther's fake marriage leaks to the public, she'll instantly become the target and joke of Hallsbay. Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a devious, well-thought-out plan. This woman is scary when she wants her man.”

Bailey raised her brows. This kid's imagination is pretty rich. Even I didn't think of that yet. It seems to be true now that I gave it some thought. It's undeniable that Zoey loves Artemis, which is why she couldn't bear it when Rhonda was going everywhere announcing that she was Mrs. Luther. After receiving the news about Artemis and Rhonda's fake marriage certificate from the City Hall, she planned to use this chance to send Rhonda to jail. Unfortunately, her plan is doomed to fail because news about Rhonda's fake marriage cannot be leaked out yet. At least, not before Cadence is caught. It's a shame she can't utilize this golden opportunity when so many people are gathered around Rhonda.

“Help me suppress this news, Sebby. Leave the rest to me.”

In response, Sebastian narrowed his eyes and spoke in a deep voice. “Zayron mentioned Rhonda was the reason you three suffered back then. Not only that, she killed Zayron's great-granny and brother. Are you sure you want to give up this opportunity?”

Bailey rubbed her head and smiled. “Just because I'm letting her go for now doesn't mean I've forgiven her. I'll find an even better chance to deliver her a lethal strike. She enjoys being treated like a star, right? In that case, I should let her enjoy the moment for a bit longer. After all, the higher she ascends, the harder she'll fall.”

Sebastian scratched his head and said, “Fine. I'll ask people to suppress this news. However, I won't be able to do anything if they decide to send the news to another media company.”

“I know. Just do it.” After watching Sebastian return to the study, Bailey gave Edmund a call.

“What's the matter, Bay?” Edmund asked.

Without beating around the bush, she informed, “You know about your cousin and Rhonda's fake marriage certificate, right? Just now, the daughter of the Shurmer family, Zoey, has anonymously leaked this news to one of the media companies under LG Corporation. I have my reasons for not wanting the news to leak out yet, so can you help me contact Zeke and ask him to tell his sister to back off?”
