Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 357

Chapter 357

Meanwhile, in a private mansion, Bailey was leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window in her pajamas when Artemis entered with a bag of women's clothes.

After casually tossing the bag aside, the man walked to the side of the bed and hugged Bailey from behind.

“Are you still feeling sore?”

Upon hearing the question, Bailey arched a brow.

Gosh, is it appropriate to discuss this sensitive topic while we're in such an intimate position? In any case, he's like an insatiable beast who's just gotten his first taste of meat. If I were to say the wrong thing, I reckon he'd want to have his way with me again.

“I want to look into my background, Artemis. I want to know what on earth happened back then.”

Unsurprisingly, Artemis didn't turn her down.

As he brushed his lips along the nape of her neck, he murmured, “I've already sent someone to investigate, and I'm sure we'll get some news soon. Don't worry. I'll help you find your family. You may seem cold and indifferent, but deep down inside, I know you've been yearning for family love.”

With that, Bailey smiled and melted into his embrace. “From today onward, I'm giving myself to you. The past few years have been too hectic and tiring. I can hardly breathe with all this weight on my shoulders.”

Artemis hugged her even tighter.

Yes, she's right. She single-handedly raised two children and even managed to teach them so well. I can only imagine the amount of pressure she had faced over the years.

“Sure. Leave everything to me from now on,” Artemis reassured. “After all, I'm your man. There's no need to feel bad or shameful for depending on me. With me around, all you need to do is enjoy your life.”

Bailey couldn't help but chuckle.

When the rays of sunlight poured through the windows, she instinctively raised a hand to shield her eyes. Is this what tranquility feels like? Wow... It sure is addictive.

“Bay, should I make a public announcement about our kids?”

“Huh? What for?” Bailey asked, looking somewhat bemused.

Artemis smiled and planted a kiss on her lips. “I'm afraid that some people might try to smear our private lives. According to Ken, someone secretly photographed us in the restaurant last night. Given our current situation, there will undoubtedly be an uproar if our intimate photos are leaked.”

To the man's surprise, Bailey merely smirked as a devilish glint flashed in her eyes. “It's okay. Let them say whatever they like. We'll announce the truth about our kids once things have reached a critical point. That way, it'd be a tight slap in the face of those gossipmongers. Ha! I can't wait to see their defeated looks!”

The more Artemis gazed at the mischievous yet gorgeous woman, the more he felt himself falling head over heels in love with her. He was, without a doubt, ready to do anything for Bailey.

“Sure. We'll do as you say.”

At a hotel near the eastern outskirts of Hallsbay, Rose flung a card at the two thugs in front of her. “There's a total of five hundred thousand in this card. If you follow my instructions and violate Rainie Yeanisky from Fashionista, I'll reward you with another five hundred thousand.”

Needless to say, the thugs were shocked. Oh, f*ck! That's a million in total! We've never seen so much money in our lives!

“A-Are you sure you're giving us a million?”

Rose's eyes instantly blazed with disdain. Hmph. One million is merely what I pay for a handbag. I can't believe these two filthy peasants are so mesmerized by that paltry amount.

“Haven't I already given you five hundred thousand in advance?” she snapped. “Once you've assaulted Rainie, I'll pay you the rest immediately. Of course, you'll need to bring me her nude pictures as proof.”

After hearing that, the two thugs exchanged furtive glances.

Oh, h*ll yes! We're doing this! Not only will we get to sleep with the Oscars' Best Actress, but we'll also be paid handsomely for it! What a deal! We can even blackmail the actress with her nude photos and rake in another tidy sum of money. My goodness, we're going to be so rich!

“All right. You've got yourself a deal. Give us three days. We'll find a spot and wait for the perfect timing to do the deed.”

“Go on, then.”

“Yes, yes.”

With that, the two thugs grabbed Rose's card and darted out of the room.

The latter couldn't help but curl her lips into a vicious smile as she watched them leave.

I failed to do a number on Bailey, but that doesn't mean I can't deal with a b*tch like Rainie. So what if Rainie's pretty? She's nothing more than a talentless airhead! What gives her the right to steal my Best Actress award or take over the lead for Time Warp? Does she intend to use this opportunity to break into the international scene? If that's the case, I shall give her a hand by publishing her nude photos. That way, she'll become famous all over the world! Hahaha... Go to hell, Rainie Yeanisky!

Meanwhile, Micah was on the couch in a suburban mansion as he downed glass after glass of alcohol.

As the current leader of Tarragon, he wielded a lot of power in his hands.

Therefore, it was no surprise that countless bigwigs in the world had tried to curry favor with Micah by sending him women and money, all of which he graciously accepted.

The more Artemis gozed ot the mischievous yet gorgeous womon, the more he felt himself folling heod over heels in love with her. He wos, without o doubt, reody to do onything for Boiley.

“Sure. We'll do os you soy.”

At o hotel neor the eostern outskirts of Hollsboy, Rose flung o cord ot the two thugs in front of her. “There's o totol of five hundred thousond in this cord. If you follow my instructions ond violote Roinie Yeonisky from Foshionisto, I'll reword you with onother five hundred thousond.”

Needless to soy, the thugs were shocked. Oh, f*ck! Thot's o million in totol! We've never seen so much money in our lives!
