Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308

Artemis was enraged at first, but he instantly huffed a gnarly laugh when he heard his sons scolding him. Are they angry at me because I haven't married their mom, and that's why Susan was said to be an illegitimate child? God knows how badly I want to marry that woman. However, it isn't time yet.

“Fine. I admit I'm a jerk. It's all my fault your mommy had to go through countless hardships over the years. Once she knows the truth, I'll kneel before her and apologize. Now, I need you guys to figure out a way to stop your sister from crying,” Artemis said.

“You don't say,” the brothers uttered in unison once again. That was how in sync they were.

Hearing that, Artemis couldn't help but burst out laughing. These two have complete control over me. What status will I have in the family in the future?

Despite his thought, he felt a wave of warmth in his heart when he saw both his sons trying to console his daughter. This heartwarming scene is beyond all I can ask for. God has truly given the greatest blessing to me by giving me two sons and a daughter. How am I supposed to repay that woman? I guess I'll have to cherish her and pamper her for the rest of my life.

Gradually, Susan stopped crying. She then pushed her brothers aside and tugged at the corner of Artemis' shirt. While looking up at him, she uttered in a hoarse voice, “Daddy.”

Artemis' body trembled, and he was stunned for a few seconds. The moment he regained his senses, he glanced at Susan joyfully and stammered, “What did you just call me, Sweetheart? Do you mind repeating yourself?”

Susan smiled and repeated herself.

Artemis felt his heart thumping, and the sense of family rose from within his body.

He then leaned forward to carry Susan up and fiercely kissed her delicate cheeks. After that, he shifted his gaze toward Zayron.

The little boy snorted and called out, “Arty.”

Artemis was rendered speechless. If he were somebody else's kid, I would definitely send him to Tarragon's training base to teach him a lesson.

Meanwhile, Bailey went around the square to look for the kids, but she couldn't find any of them. Instead, she bumped into Lionel.

“Hi, Mr. Gezmond. It's been a long time,” she greeted.

Lionel flashed a faint smile in response. “It has. What a surprise! I didn't expect to see you at such an event, Ms. Jefferson.”

Instead of responding to him, Bailey shifted her gaze toward the woman he was holding arms with. She then raised her brows and asked, “You're Ms. Wendy, right? As expected of the Hoffman family's eldest daughter. With Mr. Gezmond by your side, you guys look like a match made in heaven.”

Wendy smiled at Bailey and teased, “Instead of addressing me as Ms. Wendy, I think it's better if you address me as Mrs. Gezmond, Ms. Jefferson.”

Bailey nodded slightly and flashed a half-smile. “Ms. Wendy, in the name of love, you've turned your family away. It's admirable to see you sacrifice so much. Indeed, I should address you as Mrs. Gezmond.”

“You...” Wendy was pissed off. However, she quickly pulled herself together. “I need to thank you for taking care of my sister over the years, Ms. Jefferson. Now that she's with me, you won't need to worry about her anymore.”

Bailey's gaze glinted darkly when Wendy mentioned Juliana. That girl doesn't understand my intentions. She only severed our relationship because she was afraid of causing trouble. Unbeknown to her, Zeke belongs to a different world. No matter how hard they try, their relationship will not work out.

“Well, it's all right. As her sister, advise her, will you? The Hoffman family might accept one of the daughters marrying a foreigner. However, I doubt they'll ever allow both to do the same,” Bailey answered.

“Hi, Lionel and Wendy! You guys are here!” A melodious voice rang out from somewhere nearby.

Everyone turned toward the voice and saw Zoey walking over to them while holding a little girl's hand.

Bailey didn't want to deal with them any longer, so she turned around and was about to leave.

As soon as she had taken one step forward, she heard the little girl Zoey had brought along asking, “Are you Susan's mom? The illegitimate child.”
