Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 910

Chapter 910 Is He Here To Save Her

Juliana slightly lowered her head.

It was her impatience for quick success that led her astray. She had no rebuttal and had wasted all the teachings her master had imparted over the years.

“Tucker, why have you tricked me into coming here?”

With a cold smile, Tucker glanced around and then said lightly, “A dark and windy night like this is perfect for murder, isn't it? And it can silently erase all traces of the body. What do you think, my dear cousin?”

A sudden heaviness fell upon Juliana's heart, and with it, her gaze turned icy.

He did not bother to hide his murderous intent at all, so she had no doubt that he would seize the opportunity to silence her that night.

“Why? The first branch of the family has already handed over the power to you. Now, we are nothing more than ordinary clan members. Why are you so hell-bent on annihilating me? With your narrow-mindedness, do you even deserve to be the leader of a clan? If our clansmen find out that you are creating internal conflict and senselessly killing the innocent, aren't you afraid that your position as the head of the household will vanish into thin air?”

Tucker burst into uncontrollable laughter as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.

“Now the entire Hoffman family's power is in my hands. Who do you think would dare to oppose me? Killing you would be as easy as crushing an ant. Who would stand up for a family disgrace like you? Juliana, don't forget that you got pregnant before marriage. By carrying the b*stard child of a foreigner, you have violated our family rules. As the new head of the household, I have the right to deal with you as I see fit. So even if you were to die today, no one would dare to utter a word of blame against me.”

“You...”

Tucker did not give her a chance to speak. He waved his hand and sneered, “Why are all of you standing around? Hurry up and send Ms. Juliana on her way.”

“Yes.”

Juliana's heart completely sank when she saw a large group of bodyguards swarm in on her.

An aura of death enveloped her, and she could not help but let out a bitter laugh.

It was her lack of skill that led to this unfortunate outcome. She truly brought it upon herself.

Watching as several of her subordinates fell one after another, Juliana slowly closed her eyes.

The head of her bodyguards urgently said, “Ms. Juliana, there's still a glimmer of hope. You must not give up. I'll cover for you. You must escape quickly.”

After he finished speaking, he began to push Juliana away.

Juliana swiftly grabbed his arm and said with a laugh, “Tucker has gone mad. For the sake of power and status, he was willing to risk his entire family to bring Sofie down. Now that he has murderous intentions toward me, how can he possibly let me go so easily? Even if I manage to evade his capture today, the assassins outside won't let me off the hook. How can I possibly escape this intense encirclement when I'm unarmed and have no one by my side to protect me? So give up already. Having loyal subordinates who are willing to die with me, I'm more than satisfied.”

“But...”

Before the bodyguard could finish, Tucker burst into a sinister laugh again. “At least you have some self-awareness. Originally, I didn't want to kill you. I wanted you to live a lingering life in this world and spend your entire life as a widow in the Hoffman family. Ah, how fate toys with us. Just a couple of days ago, I inadvertently let slip in front of you and revealed that the confidential documents are in Zoey's possession. If you get your hands on that document before me, wouldn't I be at the mercy of a young lady like you? To avoid unnecessary trouble, I've thought it over and over, and it seems that the safest option is to forever seal your lips.”

After he finished speaking, he shouted at the bodyguards who had already approached Juliana, “Doesn't she want to go to the secret room? Then fulfill her wish. Throw her in, set a fire, and leave no trace of her remains.”

“Yes.”

Several black-clad bodyguards reached out to grab Juliana's shoulder.

At that moment, a voice laced with playful mockery echoed in the silent darkness. The tone was deep and rich with a touch of languor.

“Mr. Tucker, oh no, I should address you as Mr. Hoffman now. Moranta is indeed your territory. You're also in charge of the Hoffman family. But when it comes to my woman, it's not your place to dispose of her as you please.”

As the final note fell, a tall and slender figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

The man was dressed in a gray suit, and his thin lips curved into a faint smile.

However, a faint scent of blood emanating from him diminished his elegant demeanor.

Upon hearing the voice of the newcomer, a trace of disbelief flashed in Juliana's eyes.

When she saw his face, the look of surprise slowly faded away.
