Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61

Felicity narrowed her eyes. “Caridee, how do you know she tainted the Chivers family's bloodline? The paternity test shows that they are related. Justin was the one who handled it. There's no way he could have made a mistake.”

Caridee rolled her eyes and said exasperatedly, “Ugh, the paternity test is all you, Uncle Yoel, and his wife can think of. Have you guys ever considered what Rhonda said seven years ago? She said Bailey got pregnant at the same time as her. Think about it. Where was Edmund at that time?”

Felicity fell into deep thoughts. After some time, anger washed over her face. “I remember now. Edmund was keeping your granddad company in Springwyn. I remember you went there and stayed there for a month too.”

“Exactly. If Edmund was in Springwyn at that time, how did he make Bailey pregnant?”

Felicity sprang up from the couch and fumed, “I'm going to give your uncle a call. I'm going to tell him to do another paternity test.”

“Calm down.” Caridee grabbed Felicity's arm and made her sit down. “Mom, she must be feeling proud and enjoying the feeling of having climbed up the social ladder. Let's just let her enjoy it for a few more days and bring her down when the time is right. We'll let her experience the feeling of going from heaven to hell.”

Felicity whipped around and narrowed her eyes as she glanced at Caridee. “What do you mean?”

“She's thick-skinned and insisted on being my designer, no? Well, we can plot something with this. Once she messes up, she'll definitely get Edmund's help. When that happens, we'll tell Uncle Yoel and his wife the truth. We'll have total control over her when she doesn't have the Chivers family backing her.”

Felicity fell silent for a moment before nodding. “You youngsters are really witty. You've got so many great ideas. Very well. Let's go with your plan. That woman is evil to the core. I'll never let her get close to Artemis and Edmund and ruin their lives.”

Having worked hard for two whole days, Bailey finally finished the first draft.

She was stunned by her own craft after coloring it.

Even Susan was unwilling to let go of the drawing. She muttered jealously, “What a beautiful gown. It's such a waste to give it to that willful princess of the Luther family just like that. Bailey, why don't we switch it with something else? We can use this as my coming-of-age gown.”

Bailey massaged her sore temples and pulled her daughter into her embrace, putting on a rare smile. “For your coming-of-age gown, I'll surely spend half a year designing it. This belongs to someone else. How can I let you wear it? It's too simple and cheap.”

Susan grinned and wrapped her arms around Bailey's neck, praising sweetly, “You're the best mommy on earth. I'm really blessed to be your daughter.”

Creak!

The door opened, and Zayron walked in with a plate of fruits. The moment he saw them hugging each other tightly, a wave of jealousy washed over him.

That's it. I'm not her son. I'm definitely not her son.

“Bailey, can I have a hug too?”

Bailey glared at him and sneered, “Do you earn as much money as your sister? All she needs to do is film an advertisement, and I have enough money to buy a condominium.”

Zayron was rendered speechless by her words.

Oh, boy. She's a big shot. I can't afford to mess with her.

Susan leaned into Bailey's embrace and chuckled. “Mommy, I'm already nominated for the Oscars' Best Child Actor Award. If I get the award, my net worth with increase by ten times. Zayron is not even worth being compared to me.”

Zayron stood frozen.

Bailey released Susan with a chuckle, got up from the chair, and stretched herself. “All right, now. I need to go to Luther Group's headquarters to hand in my design. I shall not keep messing around with you kids. Stay at home and behave, okay? Don't go out there and get into trouble.”

Zayron rolled his eyes. Her last sentence is totally targeting me. Then again, what on earth did I do? Why does she always look at me like I'm some kind of trash?
