Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 562

Chapter 559

When Victor chased Victoria out of the Saunders family, they were no longer siblings.

If she were to do something about it, Victor could cause her trouble.

“Ms. Victoria, I know you're in a difficult spot, but Mr. Gezmond is already selling his shares to gamble. He lost two hundred million within a night. If he carries on, Saunders Group is going to go bankrupt in a couple of months,” the finance director said.

Victoria narrowed her eyes and asked solemnly, “He has already started selling his shares? I thought he had up to three billion in his account. Did he already finish all that?”

The finance director sighed and bemoaned, “Not only did he use up the money in his account, but he has also started using the company's money. There was an earthquake in Quadfield not long ago, and the upper management of the company wanted to donate eighty million to the victims, but Mr. Gezmond had also used up the money!”

Victoria's breathing began to quicken, and she was obviously pissed off. I thought the money was enough for him to squander for the next eight to ten years. Who would've thought that he would end up selling his shares to make ends meet? What a b*stard!

“You guys should hold a shareholder meeting to kick him out. There's nothing I can do to help. I can't even control him.”

“B-But those shares are his, so he can do whatever he wants. If this goes to court, the judge won't rule against him.”

Victoria kept mum for a while before saying through clenched teeth, “Let him be. If the company is bound to go belly up, then it shall. Perhaps this is fate.”

As soon as those words fell, despair crept up the finance director's face. He was emotionally attached to Saunders Group, so he couldn't bear to see the business go bankrupt. What can I do? I'm just an employee.

Meanwhile, there was a large group of reporters outside the Luther residence. Those reporters were all waiting for Bailey to explain why she had Yulissa take the blame.

Enraged, Felicity called the police to ask the officers to chase those reporters away.

To her surprise, the police, who had always been loyal to the Luther family prior to that, had chickened out. Apparently, the higher-ups were eager to know the whereabouts of the donations. If Bailey couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation, the police wouldn't dare to show up.

Felicity went berserk when she heard that. After smashing the phone, she rolled up her sleeves. She was ready to confront the reporters.

Bailey smiled and comforted Felicity by saying, “Just wait. They're going to eat their words soon.”

Whan Victor chasad Victoria out of tha Saundars family, thay wara no longar siblings.

If sha wara to do somathing about it, Victor could causa har troubla.

Bailay smilad and comfortad Falicity by saying, “Just wait. Thay'ra going to aat thair words soon.”

Bailey was also curious to find out what Zayron had done, so she followed behind. The moment Felicity stepped outside, she saw an enormous snake crawling up to her. She screamed at the top of her lungs and stumbled backward into Bailey's arms.

Felicity calmed down right away, and she looked at Bailey in confusion. Furrowing her brows, she asked, “Are you saying you have a solution to this?”

“Snakes! There are so many snakes outside!”

The butler quickly rushed up the front steps and kicked a few snakes aside. After that, he said to Felicity and Bailey, “Mrs. Luther, Ms. Bailey, Mr. Zayron opened the snake enclosure. We now have almost ten thousand snakes on the loose.”

Felicity laughed in exasperation. “That rascal! It seems that he has always been holding back when he was pranking me. Otherwise, I would've been dead by now!”

Unlike Felicity, Bailey wasn't amused. With a frown, she said, “Everybody has a different tolerance toward snake bites. Some can last for an hour to two after getting bitten, while some could die on the spot. Judging by the screams coming from the outside, I think a lot of them got bitten. We can't put their lives at risk.”

In response, the butler smiled and replied, “Don't worry, Ms. Bailey. These snakes are for consumption. None of them is venomous. The worst a person can get from the bite is swelling. An anti-inflammatory injection will do the trick.”

Despite hearing those words, Bailey was still slightly worried. She turned toward Felicity and said, “Perhaps we should get the bodyguards to capture those snakes. It could be troublesome if the situation gets ugly.”

Felicity waved dismissively and uttered nonchalantly, “Just let him be. We've suffered so much for a few days now, so this is the time to settle the score, no?”

Bailey was rendered speechless.

Moments later, officers from the police station arrived at the scene to capture the snakes.

If those thousands of snakes were to roam freely, they could cause a huge ruckus in the neighborhood.

When the person in charge of the police station questioned Felicity, she answered him shamelessly and straightforwardly, “Those reporters surrounded my house and awakened those snakes. Coincidentally, someone forgot to close the enclosure last night. That's how everything happened. Gosh! You guys are such a bunch of exemplary public servants. When I called you guys for help earlier today, you guys ignored me. When snakes are concerned, however, you guys arrived at the scene almost immediately. How efficient! All right, now. Capture those snakes and return them to the enclosure. If you guys are interested, feel free to bring some home for a nice meal.”

The person in charge of the police station nearly spat out blood in frustration when he heard those sarcastic words.
