Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 758

Chapter 758 She Had No Choice But To Sacrifice

Caridee The more Shaun looked at the photo, the more he felt plagued with impatience.

What a beautiful girl, looking so pure that she makes me want to...

Shaun had been with so many women, all seductive and sexy. Even if there were a few seemingly innocent and charming ones, they were mostly just putting on an act. For the first time, he had encountered such a natural pure girl, untainted by any impurities, and he could not wait to spoil the woman wholeheartedly. Shaun said,

“Mr. Tucker keeps saying that he wants to cooperate with me sincerely, but could it be that he has also taken a fancy to this pretty girl and planned to claim her for himself?”

The bodyguard in a black suit standing in the center of the living room respectfully replied, “Mr. Carter, you have misunderstood. Mr. Tucker has prepared a grand feast for you that will surely make you leave satisfied.”

Shaun raised his eyebrows. He leaned lazily against the back of the chair, with a hint of a half-smile playing at the corner of his lips.

“Tell me about it. I'm curious to see what kind of surprise Mr. Tucker has prepared.”

The bodyguard nodded and said, “There will be an International Socialite Gala held the day after tomorrow, which is sponsored by the Hoffman family. The young lady you're interested in is also on the invitation list. Mr. Carter, if you could grace us with your presence, you would surely win the beauty's heart. As for the specific arrangements, I won't reveal them for now. You'll understand it when the time comes.”

Shaun burst into laughter.

“I never expected that Mr. Tucker would have such a romantic side! All right, I'll wait for another two days. I hope he can bring me a once-in-a-lifetime unforgettable encounter.”

The bodyguard replied, “Definitely.”

Shaun burst into hearty laughter again, grabbing the red wine from the table and downing it in one gulp. His gaze fell upon the young girl's face in the photo, and a wicked smile formed at the corner of his lips. In his hawk-like eyes, a glint of predatory desire flickered.

He was the head of the most prominent family in Epea, with wealth as loaded as any country's reserves. Over the years, beautiful women have surrounded him, and none who caught his eye have ever managed to escape.

The same goes for the one before my eyes.

He was determined to fully savor her beauty. At a leisure club, Astrid was escorted by two bodyguards in black suits into a private room.

Astrid said, “Let go of me, all of you! How dare you arrest me in public? Does the law mean nothing to you?”

“The law? In Moranta, isn't the Hoffman family the law itself? No. The Hoffman family is the law in the entire Adrune.”

A wickedly teasing voice reached Astrid's ears, and Astrid instinctively looked up to see a tall, slender figure sitting by the window. She knew the man. He was the next heir of the Hoffman family, Tucker Hoffman.

Astrid said, “Mr... Mr. Tucker, I don't know why you want to tie me up. I... I don't seem to have offended you, have I?”

Tucker was right.

In Moranta, the Hoffman family was the law, and Astrid could not afford to mess with the family. Neither could her family, as the Adley family relied on the Hoffman family for survival.

Tucker gestured to the seat across from him with his chin and raised an eyebrow, saying, “Ms. Adley, please have a seat and enjoy a cup of coffee. Let's have a chat.”

Astrid forced herself to approach him. After sitting down across from him, she said somewhat awkwardly, “Mr. Tucker, I have limited capabilities, so I really can't do anything for you. I hope you can understand...”

Before she could finish speaking, Tucker directly waved his hand to interrupt her.

“It's just a small matter, so I don't need you to have many capabilities. I heard that Ms. Caridee of the Luther family is your friend, and you have invited her to International Socialite Gala hosted by the Hoffman family?”

“Yes, you're right. If there is anything you wish to convey, please speak freely. If there's anything I can help with, I'll definitely not decline.”
