Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64

Meanwhile, at the design department, Bailey scanned the people sprawled on the floor, her lips curving upward to form a smirk. “Are these the security guards hired by Luther Group? They're not very impressive.”

With that, Bailey whipped around and stared at Victoria, who was watching the drama unfold. The former mocked, “How on earth did you become the director of the HR department? Why did you hire such useless people? Tsk tsk. You have bad taste. I think you should go back to university and study for a few more years. Don't embarrass your lecturer.”

Victoria's lips twitched.

What a horrible woman. She doesn't even miss the chance of insulting her own best friend. I'm just here to watch the drama. Did she really have to mock me too?

Bailey walked up to Janice and stared down at her, saying calmly, “You should learn from Ms. Tanner and stay away from me when you see me next time. I'm short-tempered, and I don't have the patience to tolerate your spoiled princess attitude. By the way, tell Rhonda to clean her name without dragging mine through the mud. Otherwise, I'll ruin her reputation even more.”

Janice looked up immediately. When she was about to retort, her eyes fell on the entrance, and she started wailing, “Jeremy, you're finally here! This woman... S-She's bullying me.”

Bailey cocked her brow in puzzlement before slowly turning around. A young man dressed in a suit could be seen approaching them. It was at that moment Bailey understood what was going on.

This must be Janice's boyfriend. What's his position again? Oh, right. Deputy general manager.

Jeremy Lohan swept his gaze over Janice. His eyes darkened when he saw her swollen face and pained expression as she clutched her stomach.

He looked over at Bailey and asked angrily, “Were you the one who made her like that?”

Bailey admitted, “Yep. I was the one who beat her up. There's no way I can deny it since there are so many witnesses here. So? Are you planning to avenge your girlfriend, Mr. Lohan?”

Jeremy narrowed his eyes and glared at Bailey for a long time before saying coldly, “I shall not question who was in the right or wrong for now. Then again, shouldn't you apologize to her for beating her up to this extent?”

Bailey was speechless.

The people here are so weird. I was the one who was provoked, and I merely defended myself out of instinct. Yet now, I've got to apologize to the provoker because she was beaten up? Hah! What kind of logic is this?

“What if I refuse? Will you hit me?”

Without waiting for Jeremy to speak, Janice said, “Jerr, send her to the police station and get her detained for two weeks on the charge of intentionally hurting others.”

When she finished, she glanced at Bailey smugly. “My boyfriend is from the branch family of the Luther family. Sure, you can act unruly in front of me, but let's see if you can continue doing that when the police come. With no one to back you up, I'd like to see who'll bail you out once you're arrested.”

Bailey smiled and shook her head, moving her feet forward to leave the building.

She had only taken two steps when Jeremy grabbed her arm. “If you don't apologize to her, then I have no choice but to take you to the police station.”

Bailey narrowed her eyes, which glinted with a hint of impatience. She sneered, “Looks like it's a trend to have backers while expanding one's social circle. As for those without backers, they'll be bullied. Very well. I'll go to the police station with you. Consider me unlucky for encountering a rabid dog.”

Janice grinned gleefully. Once this woman goes to jail, I'll be able to brag about this to Rhonda. If I manage to butter up the future wife of the CEO, I'll surely get promoted quickly in Luther Group.

Victoria was about to rush over when Stephen stopped her.

“Let me go,” she demanded.
