Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 405

Chapter 405

The Hoffman family was the biggest and most mysterious family in Adrune and had ruled over Epea for centuries. Once Juliana wielded real power, she would be one of the most powerful people in the world.

Thus, Bailey approved of her return.

Her years of experience taught her one thing—only those in power were able to protect their loved ones and do whatever they wanted.

The doorbell rang right when Bailey sent a message to Juliana.

It was a curt text: Have a safe trip.

After the message was sent, she tossed her phone onto the coffee table and went to the doorway to open the door.

“Bailey, you lied to me!”

The sight of her sister-in-law at the door caused Bailey to massage her brows in exasperation.

Ugh, I'm going to have a headache. I've just sent one away, and another one is here.

“When did I lie to you?”

“You promised to get me Legendary Racer's autograph, but she didn't even come to Hallsbay, let alone join the competition!”

Bailey let out a helpless sigh. “How do you know she's not at Hallsbay? Not joining the competition doesn't mean she's not here, get it?”

Caridee blinked. “Is she here? You're not lying to me, right?”

Feeling amused, Bailey slapped her head. “I promise you'll get Adhira's autograph that day.”

Caridee sighed in relief and took Bailey's arm. Beaming, she said, “Bailey, you're the best!”

Right after she spoke, footsteps sounded in the corridor outside.

They both looked up.

Caridee bore a lovestruck expression when she got a clear look at the person.

“Oh, he's so handsome. I-Is he coming toward us?”

Bailey glanced at her before turning to look at Veikko. Oh, no. Caridee is a pampered socialite, so she cannot resist someone as handsome as Veikko. That's precisely why handsome young men are popular in the entertainment industry. Girls just swoon at the sight of them.

Veikko's black outfit made him look more handsome than ever.

He also looked manly as he received vigorous training all year long.

Did Caridee fall in love with him at first sight? Please don't... If he steals her heart, Ratemis will kill me!

One was a malicious young assassin who reeked of blood, and the other was a sheltered young lady who grew up without any worries.

If sparks flew between them, they would end up being on parallel lines that would never intersect with each other.

“Maxton, Zayron, your Aunt Caridee is here. Bring her to the study now.”

Caridee rolled her eyes in exasperation. “I have only taken one look at your lackey. Why are you so nervous? I wasn't planning on seducing him.”

After she said that, a shocking thought popped up in her mind. Her eyes widened incredulously as she asked, “B-Bailey, don't tell me you have a kept man without Artemis' knowledge... Mmph...”

Bailey hurriedly covered her mouth and declared, “Stop talking nonsense. If your brother hears this, he'll kill me!”

Caridee blinked before reaching out to pry her hand off. “It turns out you're scared of Artemis, huh?”

Bailey was speechless.

Yes, I'm afraid of Artemis. In fact, I'm terrified of him. I'm scared he'll pin me in bed and force me to stay there for seven days in a row.

She wasn't exaggerating, for Artemis was perfectly capable of doing that.

“Who is he, Bailey? If you refuse to tell me who he is, I'll tell Artemis you have a kept man.”

Bailey shot her a glare.

I knew it. The Luthers may look innocent, but they are full of tricks.

“My sworn brother. Don't talk nonsense,” she warned.

“What is his name?” Caridee asked.
