Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 413

Chapter 413

Something's wrong with the vehicle. Bailey was sure her car was not performing as it should.

As if he could sense the sudden change in Bailey's mood, Artemis tilted his head to look at her and asked with knitted eyebrows, “What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“Somebody messed with the car in an attempt to get me killed,” replied Bailey through gritted teeth while a cold glint flashed across her eyes.

Artemis' face immediately hardened after he heard that, for he knew exactly how dire their situation was then. “What's the problem?”

Bailey shook her head in response. “I don't know for sure yet, so I'm driving slowly to see if I can find out what the cause is. Unfasten your seatbelt. If anything happens, you'll be able to jump out of the car to save yourself.”

Artemis hurriedly reached out to unfasten Bailey's seatbelt before doing the same to his.

How can I not be moved when he always puts me first? Bailey could not help but turn to smile at Artemis after what he did for her. “Artemis, if I decide to throw my life away and step on the accelerator, will you die with me?”

“Why would I want to die when I still have so much to do in this world?” questioned Artemis rhetorically with a raised eyebrow and a chuckle.

Bailey laughed heartily because she could not agree more with the man. He's right. Why would we want to die when there's so much to live for? How can I leave this world when my children are still so young?

“Look, everyone! Bailey's car stopped for some reason.”

“Are you blind or something? It's obviously still moving but at the pace of a tortoise.”

“You're right. It really is moving as slowly as a turtle. That weirdo is going to ruin Dexter's perfect record!”

“What is she thinking driving so casually? Does she actually think she owns the International Racecar Tournament?”

“Damn it! I'd give anything to slap that woman. Or better yet, I'll pull her out of the car and take her place.”

“If she loses, she'll bring shame to the entire Chanaea.”

In the VIP area, Zoey clenched her fists as her forehead sweated bullets because, unlike the other spectators, she knew Bailey was not fooling around. Why is she driving so slowly? Did she find out?

“What did your friend do to the car?” Zoey secretly asked the bodyguard in black beside her.

Pursing his lips, the bodyguard then replied, “I heard it had something to do with the braking system. Once the car gets hot enough, the heat will cause the system to malfunction.”

Zoey's pupils instantly shrank when she heard that. “That idiot! Why use heat to trigger the malfunction? How will the car get hot enough now that she's slowed down?”

“Well...”

When she saw how lost for words the bodyguard was, Zoey got so upset that her entire body shook.
