Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 480

Chapter 480

Gazing at Bailey's pale face through the mirror, he said guiltily, “I'm sorry. It's all my fault.”

Bailey rolled her eyes upon hearing that. After rinsing her mouth, she turned around and embraced him. “What are you talking about? It's not like I'm disgusted by you. It's normal to have nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, so...”

Artemis reciprocated the hug as he replied, “I know. I promise I won't mess around anymore. Actually, I could just use my hands.”

Amused, Bailey couldn't help chuckling. “Let's go to the Saunders residence.”

“Okay.”

Artemis lifted Bailey into his arms and carried her out of the door.

After an hour, they arrived at the Saunders residence.

Bailey frowned instinctively when she saw all the reporters outside of the Saunders residence.

“What's happening? Why are there so many reporters here?”

Artemis pondered for a moment before answering in a deep voice, “They must have received the news that Victoria is back, so they're trying to surround her to get more information about the love triangle between Lionel, Wendy, and her.”

“They are just like disgusting flies and mosquitoes that are everywhere. They would never give up on any possible chance to intrude in people's personal lives. If we approach just like that, won't they encircle us, too?”

Artemis frowned in annoyance.

He did not bring his bodyguard with him at that moment. Though he could afford the compensation if he just stepped on the accelerator and drove in straight away, knocking those reporters down in the process, they were precious lives after all. Even if he was the almighty Artemis, he couldn't take human lives lightly.

“Ask Victoria to come out and distract them so we could go in.”

Bailey shook her head. “No way. Vicky is pregnant. It's too dangerous for her to get too close to these maniacs.”

Artemis narrowed his eyes, hesitating to call Ken and ask him to send someone over.

However, before he could decide, Bailey opened the car door and walked straight out of the car.

“D*mn it,” he cursed softly before unbuckling his seatbelt and following Bailey out of the car.

“Guys, look. Bailey is here.”

“It's Bailey! It's Bailey! Let's go and stop her.”

The reporters swarmed toward Artemis and Bailey and surrounded them along with their car in no time.

“Bailey, is that red emerald really a fake?”

“Why are you so sure that the red emerald is a fake? Are you trying to doubt Master Vespera's appraising skills?”

“What does the real red emerald look like? Could you have possibly heard of some rumors to know what the real emerald seal looks like?”

Bailey smirked as she replied casually, “I was just making things up yesterday. I don't even know if the red emerald is real or fake. Anyway, it's also better to reinvestigate the matter. Maybe the outcome of the investigation would show that the emerald is a fake. Then, they might be able to find the real deal upon the second inspection.”

Whoa... This woman is unbelievable.

Just as the reporters were about to continue asking Bailey difficult questions, she said nonchalantly, “This information should be sufficient to make the headlines. I will not answer any more questions. Those who are smart should immediately return and publish the information I provided just now. Otherwise, your competitors are going to beat you to it.”

That's true! She's right!

When that realization dawned upon them, half of the reporters left the scene one after another and rushed back to the press office to start working on the articles.

The remaining half of the reporters asked again, “So, does that mean you've admitted that you are defaming Master Vespera?”

“Bailey, are you annoyed because Master Vespera is a big shot?”

Bailey sighed softly. “Mr. Saunders' health is deteriorating due to his old age, not because of some disease. Even if I have superb medical skills, I can't do much for him. Vicky, let's be brave and face reality.”

Cough! Cough!

Vincent coughed and instructed the butler to entertain Artemis and Bailey.

After the couple left the bedroom, Vincent's gaze landed on Victoria.

“Vicky, come here.”

Victoria walked over to the side of the bed with heavy footsteps and squatted down, saying tearfully, “Dad, can you please stay with me for two more years? Victor is in prison now. If you are gone too, who can I rely on?”

Tears escaped Vincent's eyes. Seeing how distraught his daughter was, he was even more determined to take that secret to his grave.

“Vicky, I have let the Gezmond family down. I am the one who ruined the Gezmond family. It's normal for him to take revenge on me. Please don't hate him. Forget about all those sad things in the past and start over with him.”

Victoria pursed her lips and said hoarsely, “Dad, why did you attack the Gezmond family previously? Initially, I thought you did it for the sake of acquiring Gezmond Group. However, after all the incidents that happened recently, I know you are not a person who is greedy for fame or wealth. I can tell that you don't value wealth when you gave Lionel all of the Saunders family's shares. Can you please tell me the real reason behind what you did to the Gezmond family back then?”

Upon hearing that, Vincent's pupils constricted, and he averted his gaze. “There is no real reason behind it. You are overthinking it.”

After he finished his sentence, he began coughing violently again.

Victoria saw through her father's reluctance to talk about the matter, and that further affirmed her suspicion.

There must be a hidden reason behind Dad's attack against the Gezmond family.

“All right, all right. I won't ask. Please calm down.”

At that instance, Vincent grabbed Victoria's wrist and snapped, “Live the rest of your life with Lionel. Both of you still have a long way to go, so don't wallow in the sorrow of past memories. Just don't.”
