Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29

The man failed to suppress the jealousy overflowing in him as he looked at the happy family through the screen.

When he heard Maxton calling that b*stard “Daddy Eddy” time and again, he felt like he was just a man left to rot out in the vast loneliness.

The jealousy and bitterness only intensified when he saw the usually prickly woman standing beside Edmund demurely, allowing Edmund to hold her by her wrist as he wanted. At this moment, Artemis' handsome face was extremely gloomy.

Am I not good enough? Even if I'm not that attractive, what about the massive cash balance in my bank account? Why is this woman not trying to seduce me or attract my attention? D*mn it!

Meanwhile, Felicity and Rhonda were chatting on the couch in the Luther residence.

“Ronni, I have a question. Is that little boy with your sister really Ed's son?”

She might have married an outsider, but as a daughter of the Chivers family, she would never allow any woman with ill intentions to taint the Chiverses' noble bloodline.

Rhonda's eyes gleamed wickedly as her thoughts raced.

She had done a thorough investigation on the matter. That little brat with Bailey was around the same age as Maxton. If he really was Bailey's biological son, then the blood flowing in him had to be Artemis', which meant he had nothing to do with Edmund.

The director of the obstetrics and gynecology department back then had changed nationality, making it difficult for Rhonda to track her down. She must have disobeyed my order to murder the other two kids. Hence, the two of them survived.

The only thing she was feeling fortunate for right now was that Bailey had no idea who she slept with back then, and Artemis did not know that he had a biological child still wandering out there somewhere.

Hence, she had to utterly destroy Bailey's reputation so that Bailey had no choice but to leave this place before the truth found its way out of the dark.

Rhonda swore to herself that she would no longer pull her punches this time.

As soon as that b*tch leaves with her bastard child, I'll get someone to get rid of them once and for all!

“I was just about to talk to you about this matter. That little boy is around Max's age. Aside from that, you should also know that my sister sold herself to an older man for five million back then and ended up pregnant from the encounter. Eight months later, she gave birth to a stillborn. However, I suspect that the baby didn't actually die then and is that little boy.”

“What?” Felicity jumped right up from the couch. Anger erupted in her as she shouted, “You're saying that boy is a filthy product of her and that disgusting old man? H-He is not of the Chivers family's bloodline?”

Rhonda replied in a choked voice, “Bailey's rationality was just temporarily clouded by the emotions that got the better of her. She's just jealous that I gave birth to an heir for the Luther family, so she's now trying to win the favor of the Chivers family. B-But seducing Edmund and convincing him to raise the boy as his own is going over the line, even for her. The Chivers family is an honorable family of noble blood, a family that no one should make a fool out of. What she is doing is turning Edmund into a sinner in the Chivers family.”

Bam!

Felicity slammed her hand onto the coffee table out of rage. “That b*tch! How dare she tries to taint the Chiverses' bloodline?”

Rhonda's eyes flickered with a deadly chill as she manipulated the old lady into doing her dirty work. If she can get rid of that bastard child too, even better!

“Mrs. Luther, it seems like Edmund's mother is very fond of my sister. When I was on my way home, my friend phoned me to tell me that she had seen Edmund's parents and Edmund in the Pocket Guest Restaurant. My sister is also with them, and they seemed to be getting along well.”

Bam, bam!

Felicity smacked the coffee table again, and she was trembling in anger.

“Phone! Give me my phone.”

The corner of Rhonda's mouth turned up before she delivered the phone to Felicity. “Mrs. Luther, please calm down before you talk to Mr. Chivers.”

Hearing this, Felicity took several deep breaths. With that, she barely managed to suppress her anger slightly.

She dialed the number immediately, and when her call was picked up, she did not say much. Instead, Felicity only hurled a few words at her brother. “Yoel, when you're free, please come and meet me. There's something I need to talk to you about.”
