After Artemis received news that something terrible had befallen Bailey, he drove toward the Shurmer family's medical base at once, running over twenty red lights in the process.
His crazy behavior caught the attention of the Transportation Bureau's chief.
Still, the chief didn't dare to do anything to Artemis, especially after he heard about Artemis' unstable state from one of the traffic police. Artemis acted like an enraged bull, rendering the chief even more afraid of provoking him at that untimely moment.
The traffic condition could be restored following a disruption, but if the chief offended the Luther family because of an insignificant matter like that, he reckoned he might even lose his position as an official.
...
Meanwhile, at Century Grandeur, the entire venue was surrounded by reporters.
In the beginning, the security guards were still able to maintain order. However, the situation gradually worsened as the crowd grew bigger. In the end, all hell broke loose as the security guards could only stand by and watch as the reporters surged into the premise.
“What's going on? What happened? Did an international superstar visit Century Grandeur? Is it the best actress, Rainie Yeanisky, or the best actor, Elliot Sawyer?”
“What are you talking about? It's Bailey Jefferson. I heard that she requested to meet with her adoptive father, Clarence, at the restaurant, and they are carrying out some secret dealing inside.”
“I'm guessing she wants him to be a cuckold by taking her into his family since the identity of her birth father is unknown. Once Clarence announces to the public that she's the Jefferson family's biological daughter, others won't spread rumors about her being an illegitimate child anymore.”
“Even so, she shouldn't engage in that kind of activity with her adoptive father.”
“What? Don't utter such nonsense if you didn't witness it with your own eyes.”
“How can this be nonsense when there are so many reporters here? There would be no smoke without fire. They must've done it, or possibly doing it, resulting in so many reporters being attracted to this place.”
“Let's stop guessing. We'll know the truth once we go up and check out what's going on. We'll see if it's really Bailey and if she's truly committing an immoral act with her adoptive father. Everything will be clear once we go upstairs.”
“That's right. Let's go upstairs and take a look.”
Subsequently, everyone proceeded upstairs.
Zoey, wearing a pair of sunglasses, hid in the throng's periphery. She curled her seductive red lips into a wicked smile. Bailey's life should be ruined from today onward. I don't have to worry about that b*tch suddenly appearing and snatching my position from now on. I am the Shurmer family's daughter, and no one else can dream of taking this title away from me.
Rhonda had arranged for her bodyguards to stand guard outside the private room on the third floor, but they were all taken care off by Zeke's men.
As a result, those reporters were not met with any obstacles on their way up as they bolted straight toward the room Clarence was in.
Bang!
The door was kicked open.
The hot scene taking place inside the private room entered everyone's visions. They gasped when they clearly saw the faces of the two people inside.
