Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 393

Chapter 393

Also, who mentioned Legendary Racer would be participating in the contest this year? Why am I unaware of this? No one informed me of anything. This must be a gimmick by the organizer to promote their event.

“Aunt Caridee!”

“Aunt Caridee!”

“Aunt Caridee!”

Three silhouettes dashed in her direction. In the next second, Caridee was surrounded by the kids.

Bailey was just about to remind the children when her phone, placed on the shoe cabinet, rang.

She picked up the phone and took a look at the screen. Then, she arched her brow.

Dexter... This brat must be contacting me because of matters related to the International Racecar Tournament. Otherwise, he wouldn't be calling at this juncture.

She entered the study and closed the door before swiping her phone screen to answer the call.

“What's up?”

“Bailey, can you do me a favor? Please participate in the International Racecar Tournament on my behalf. I can't return to the country because I have some matters to attend to. Everyone in Chanaea is counting on you.”

Bailey raised her eyebrow. “You don't have a girlfriend nor a wife, so what's keeping you occupied? Besides, the tournament's contestant list is already finalized. You can't just ask someone else to replace you. If you don't show up, you'll be considered forfeiting the competition automatically.”

“But you're an exception. I believe no one will dare to say a word if you join the competition with that identity of yours. Please, pretty please? I really have to deal with this urgent issue. If you don't help me, I may be blacklisted by the association.”

Bailey let out a chuckle. “What's this important matter that can prompt you to give up on your most passionate car racing?”

“I'll explain to you when I return to the country. I'm going to board the plane now, so I'll be hanging up now. I assume you've agreed to my request, so I'll leave this international tournament in your hands now.”

With that, he ended the call.

Listening to the beeping sound coming from the speaker, Bailey covered her forehead as she felt her headache.

Being so flashy is genuinely not my style. I just want to live a peaceful and quiet life, but...

Staring at the darkened screen of her phone, she smiled in resignation.

Do I have a choice to refuse now that he has handed this mess to me? I've not participated in car racing for a long time. Maybe it's not a bad idea to take up his offer.

Late at night, at the Gezmond residence, Wendy sneaked out of the house while hugging Sebastian, who was sound asleep.

Someone was already waiting for them when they reached the car park.

“Ms. Wendy, are you sure you want to leave Hallsbay?”

She gestured at him to be quiet and said in an undertone, “We are leaving discreetly. I've already taken care of the guards at the gates. All you need to do is send us to the harbor, and we'll leave by boat.”

The driver nodded slightly. When he nodded, a glint flashed across his eyes.

“Yes, Ms. Wendy.”

A few minutes later, the vehicle drove out of the mansion silently.

At the same time, in the bedroom of the Gezmond residence, Lionel leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window while speaking into his phone.

He had guessed that Wendy would bring Sebastian with her and leave the city, so he instructed his men to monitor them secretly.

His prediction came true as she did what he anticipated.

He was baffled. He could not understand why she had reacted so drastically after learning Holden was a member of Tarragon. Are there some past grudges involved in this matter?

“Okay, I got it. Keep an eye on them and see where they're going. Order someone to follow them and ensure their safety. Wait for my call.”

“Understood, sir.”
