Jaw-Dropping Son-in-Law

Only by doing so could they prevent Bailey from being swallowed by the controversy and kicked when

she was down.

Without saying a word, Artemis tapped his fingers lightly on the table. The solemn rhythm that filled the

room simply made the already tense atmosphere feel more intimidating.

After a long silence, he responded in a low voice, “Let's not for now. I'll talk to my mother first. Now that

Bailey is being mired in scandals, we shouldn't add on to her burden.”

“All right. It's good that you have a plan. If there's nothing else, I'm ending the call.”

Furrowing his brows, Artemis instructed, “Call Simon and give him five days to return to Hallsbay. Or

else, I'll personally travel to Springwyn to get him.”

“Okay, I'll let him know.”

“Also, don't reveal Zayron's relationship with him yet. We'll get to that once he's back.”

“I understand. Don't worry.”

Upon ending the call, Artemis chucked the phone on the table before leaving the study.

He had barely reached the stairs when he heard a dog barking from the living room downstairs.

The dog's incessant barking sounded extremely familiar as if it was from his pet mastiff.

As a sense of dread swelled within him, he quickly strode down the stairs and was greeted by a

shocking scene.

All he saw was a brown dog hysterically “teasing” his mastiff that was worth millions.

What a f*cking repulsive sight.

His eyes shot toward the laughing children as he questioned coldly, “Who did this?”

Ducking his head, Maxton stopped laughing, for he still did not dare to misbehave in front of his father.

Susan, too, stopped giggling as she stared fearfully at the gloomy-looking man by the staircase.

Compared to both of them, Zayron was visibly more relaxed. Laughing uncontrollably still, he sneered,

“Who did this? Are you blind? Hado, of course. Can't you see him pinning your precious dog on the

floor?”

Speechless, Artemis felt the corner of his lips twitch.

All this while, he had always thought Maxton was naughty. However, compared to Zayron, Maxton

simply paled in comparison.

What sort of environment turned him into such an annoying brat? That aside, this dog looks pretty

strong. Too bad there are barely any ingredients at home. Otherwise...

Noticing the change in Artemis' eyes, Zayron felt his heart sink when he realized the former was

salivating at Hado.

D*mn it, is he thinking of eating my best friend?

“Hado, if you don't want to end up in a stew, you had better back off.”

Woof! Woof!

The next moment, a brown furry figure flashed past them as Hado swiftly slipped out of the living room.

Had it stayed a second longer, that would have been the end of it.

When the frustrated Artemis stared at the exhausted mastiff on the ground, his lips twitched.

D*mn it! How can you lose to a useless dog? What's the point of me raising you?

“What do you want to have for dinner?”

Exchanging glances with Susan, Maxton looked in Zayron's direction.

The latter—with a nudge of his chin—pointed at the mastiff playing dead on the floor. Cocking his brow,

he answered, “Isn't there a ready ingredient in front of us? Let's slaughter it and make stew.”

Artemis was rendered speechless.

“Sounds like a good idea,” Maxton uttered. “I'll get the cleaver from the kitchen. We can take its life

while its legs are still wobbly.”

This brat...

Artemis almost did not know whether to laugh or to cry.

If it was anyone else, they would definitely have failed to stop the two boys.

“Mr. Luther, Mrs. Luther has come over. She has entered the neighborhood and will be arriving here

anytime.”

A respectful voice was suddenly heard from outside, interrupting the strange atmosphere in the living

room.

Upon hearing it, Artemis touched his forehead in annoyance. It was obvious to him what his mother

had come for.

She must be here to question me after learning that Bailey's son and daughter are living in my private

mansion.

“Maxton, take Zayron and Susan to the playroom on the second floor. Don't come down here unless I

tell you to.”

Zayron let out a snort. “Isn't Mrs. Luther here to see me and Susan? Who else can she see if we hide?

The darned dog sprawled on the ground?”

Artemis did not know what to say.

With that, Zayron pulled his sister's arm and dashed to the door.

Bailey has become public enemy number one and is feeling miserable all thanks to this old lady. Before

I had the opportunity to confront her at the Luther residence, she actually had the gall to make her way

here. Very well, looks like there will be no respect for her today.

Pinching between his brows, Artemis let out a sigh.

It seems that a battle of the generations is inevitable. I just hope that it doesn't end too badly.

“Hado, if you don't want to end up in a stew, you had better back off.”

Meanwhile, Felicity alighted from the car, only to be greeted by the sight of a boy and a girl standing on

the steps.

With an arrogant posture, both of them glared at her, their eyes filled with defiance.

After I painstakingly attacked Bailey's reputation, my son is keeping her children in his house and

fanning the flames of their anger. If this isn't provocation, what else can it be?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, causing her to lose her temper.

“Men, kick these two b*stards out.”

Four burly bodyguards came out of the car upon hearing Felicity's instructions. Subsequently, they

walked up to the siblings.

The first thing she does is cause us trouble?

With his brows raised, Zayron shot Felicity an icy glare.

If one were to look closely, one would notice that his forehead looked similar to Artemis. Even the look

in his eyes was exactly the same.

“I came here out of respect, but you abuse your authority as an elder instead. Don't blame me for what

I'm about to do, then. If I lose today, I will throw myself out. There's no need for you to bother. In fact, I'll

even crawl out on my knees.”

He had hardly finished when he whistled toward the bushes at the side.

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Amidst the ferocious barking of a dog, Hado sprang out of the bushes and pounced on the bodyguards

in black suits.

Even though Hado was a dog, it had gone through special training—it not only understood humans but

could also attack of its own accord. Even four mastiffs were no match for it, let alone four humans.

In the beginning, the bodyguards could still restrain it, but the tide of the battle quickly turned within a

minute.

The group of men was bitten so badly by Hado that they were begging for mercy on their knees.

F*cking hell, we have never seen such a savage dog before. This beast alone has defeated the four of

us. Given its combat prowess, the mastiffs at home are no match for it at all.

“Y-You guys—”

The veins on Felicity's forehead began to throb as she stared at the immobilized bodyguards on the

ground in shock.

At the same time, her gasp caught the attention of the heavily-panting Hado. Turning its head, it then

locked eyes with Felicity's terrified gaze.

It then barked loudly at her, causing Felicity to jolt in fright.

“D-Don't you come over!”

Meonwhile, Felicity olighted from the cor, only to be greeted by the sight of o boy ond o girl stonding on

the steps.

With on orrogont posture, both of them glored ot her, their eyes filled with defionce.

After I poinstokingly ottocked Boiley's reputotion, my son is keeping her children in his house ond

fonning the flomes of their onger. If this isn't provocotion, whot else con it be?

The more she thought obout it, the ongrier she got, cousing her to lose her temper.

“Men, kick these two b*stords out.”

Four burly bodyguords come out of the cor upon heoring Felicity's instructions. Subsequently, they

wolked up to the siblings.

The first thing she does is couse us trouble?

With his brows roised, Zoyron shot Felicity on icy glore.

If one were to look closely, one would notice thot his foreheod looked similor to Artemis. Even the look

in his eyes wos exoctly the some.

“I come here out of respect, but you obuse your outhority os on elder insteod. Don't blome me for whot

I'm obout to do, then. If I lose todoy, I will throw myself out. There's no need for you to bother. In foct, I'll

even crowl out on my knees.”

He hod hordly finished when he whistled toword the bushes ot the side.

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Amidst the ferocious borking of o dog, Hodo sprong out of the bushes ond pounced on the bodyguords

in block suits.

Even though Hodo wos o dog, it hod gone through speciol troining—it not only understood humons but

could olso ottock of its own occord. Even four mostiffs were no motch for it, let olone four humons.

In the beginning, the bodyguords could still restroin it, but the tide of the bottle quickly turned within o

minute.

The group of men wos bitten so bodly by Hodo thot they were begging for mercy on their knees.

F*cking hell, we hove never seen such o sovoge dog before. This beost olone hos defeoted the four of

us. Given its combot prowess, the mostiffs ot home ore no motch for it ot oll.

“Y-You guys—”

The veins on Felicity's foreheod begon to throb os she stored ot the immobilized bodyguords on the

ground in shock.

At the some time, her gosp cought the ottention of the heovily-ponting Hodo. Turning its heod, it then

locked eyes with Felicity's terrified goze.

It then borked loudly ot her, cousing Felicity to jolt in fright.

“D-Don't you come over!”
