Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389

The news made her a little worried about her disciple.

The girl was already two feet into the mess, and she was terrified of Juliana doing something irrational.

“All right, I got it. Inform me when the Hoffman family's people arrive in Hallsbay. I'll meet them first.”

“Ms. Bailey, I don't quite understand this. Haven't you severed the master-disciple relationship with Juliana? Why are you still so worried about her?”

A small smile crept onto Bailey's lips. “I only have one disciple, and the one she fell for is my... Regardless of everything, this is a matter I should be dealing with properly. Don't ask any more questions about this and just do as I tell you to.”

“Okay.”

Just as the call ended, Artemis came out of the bathroom.

He had just finished his shower, so he only had a towel wrapped around his waist. Countless drops of water were sliding down his chest, making his bronze skin glisten alluringly.

Bailey swallowed and averted her gaze before hoarsely saying, “Didn't I buy you a set of sleepwear? Why aren't you wearing it?”

Artemis lifted a brow and strode over to hug her.

Bailey tried to struggle out of his hold. “I haven't showered yet and smell like sweat right now. Let go.”

“No, I can only smell your usual sweet scent on you.”

Bailey was rendered speechless.

Artemis nuzzled her neck before mumbling, “Who was it?”

“One of my subordinates. He told me that the Hoffman family has sent one of their elders here to bring Julie back. I'm guessing that they've found out about Julie courting Zeke.”

Artemis raised his brows and teased, “Bailey, if your disciple becomes your sister-in-law, what would you feel?”

Bailey rolled her eyes and smacked his head. “Be serious. Think of a way to help me hold the Hoffman family's men back for now. I'm going to find out what Zeke thinks about this and whether or not he has any feelings for Julie.”

“Okay,” Artemis softly answered before lifting her up in a bridal carry.

“What are you doing?”

“Taking you to the shower.”

Bailey frowned.

Take me to shower? It sounds like you're about to unleash your inner beast instead!

In the meantime, the three children were eavesdropping as they pressed their ears on the door.

Sly grins appeared on their faces when they heard their father cooking up a nefarious plan again.

“Susan, you're going to be an older sister in no time.”

“Hehe. Thank you, Zayron.”

In the living room of a private mansion out in the suburbs, Micah was forced to take three steps back by a young man's punch.

He narrowed his eyes at his opponent, and after spitting out a mouthful of blood, he lifted his hand to wipe the remaining blood from his lips.

“Holden, it's been a while. It seems like you're getting better and better in combat.”

Holden, being the stoic man he was, seemed indifferent as he stared at Micah expressionlessly, but the tenseness of his body said otherwise.

“Where's Shannon? Where is she?”
