Chapter 357
Meanwhile, in a private mansion, Bailey was leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window in her pajamas
when Artemis entered with a bag of women's clothes.
After casually tossing the bag aside, the man walked to the side of the bed and hugged Bailey from
behind.
“Are you still feeling sore?”
Upon hearing the question, Bailey arched a brow.
Gosh, is it appropriate to discuss this sensitive topic while we're in such an intimate position? In any
case, he's like an insatiable beast who's just gotten his first taste of meat. If I were to say the wrong
thing, I reckon he'd want to have his way with me again.
“I want to look into my background, Artemis. I want to know what on earth happened back then.”
Unsurprisingly, Artemis didn't turn her down.
As he brushed his lips along the nape of her neck, he murmured, “I've already sent someone to
investigate, and I'm sure we'll get some news soon. Don't worry. I'll help you find your family. You may
seem cold and indifferent, but deep down inside, I know you've been yearning for family love.”
With that, Bailey smiled and melted into his embrace. “From today onward, I'm giving myself to you.
The past few years have been too hectic and tiring. I can hardly breathe with all this weight on my
shoulders.”
Artemis hugged her even tighter.
Yes, she's right. She single-handedly raised two children and even managed to teach them so well. I
can only imagine the amount of pressure she had faced over the years.
“Sure. Leave everything to me from now on,” Artemis reassured. “After all, I'm your man. There's no
need to feel bad or shameful for depending on me. With me around, all you need to do is enjoy your
life.”
Bailey couldn't help but chuckle.
When the rays of sunlight poured through the windows, she instinctively raised a hand to shield her
eyes. Is this what tranquility feels like? Wow... It sure is addictive.
“Bay, should I make a public announcement about our kids?”
“Huh? What for?” Bailey asked, looking somewhat bemused.
Artemis smiled and planted a kiss on her lips. “I'm afraid that some people might try to smear our
private lives. According to Ken, someone secretly photographed us in the restaurant last night. Given
our current situation, there will undoubtedly be an uproar if our intimate photos are leaked.”
To the man's surprise, Bailey merely smirked as a devilish glint flashed in her eyes. “It's okay. Let them
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsay whatever they like. We'll announce the truth about our kids once things have reached a critical
point. That way, it'd be a tight slap in the face of those gossipmongers. Ha! I can't wait to see their
defeated looks!”
The more Artemis gazed at the mischievous yet gorgeous woman, the more he felt himself falling head
over heels in love with her. He was, without a doubt, ready to do anything for Bailey.
“Sure. We'll do as you say.”
At a hotel near the eastern outskirts of Hallsbay, Rose flung a card at the two thugs in front of her.
“There's a total of five hundred thousand in this card. If you follow my instructions and violate Rainie
Yeanisky from Fashionista, I'll reward you with another five hundred thousand.”
Needless to say, the thugs were shocked. Oh, f*ck! That's a million in total! We've never seen so much
money in our lives!
“A-Are you sure you're giving us a million?”
Rose's eyes instantly blazed with disdain. Hmph. One million is merely what I pay for a handbag. I can't
believe these two filthy peasants are so mesmerized by that paltry amount.
“Haven't I already given you five hundred thousand in advance?” she snapped. “Once you've assaulted
Rainie, I'll pay you the rest immediately. Of course, you'll need to bring me her nude pictures as proof.”
After hearing that, the two thugs exchanged furtive glances.
Oh, h*ll yes! We're doing this! Not only will we get to sleep with the Oscars' Best Actress, but we'll also
be paid handsomely for it! What a deal! We can even blackmail the actress with her nude photos and
rake in another tidy sum of money. My goodness, we're going to be so rich!
“All right. You've got yourself a deal. Give us three days. We'll find a spot and wait for the perfect timing
to do the deed.”
“Go on, then.”
“Yes, yes.”
With that, the two thugs grabbed Rose's card and darted out of the room.
The latter couldn't help but curl her lips into a vicious smile as she watched them leave.
I failed to do a number on Bailey, but that doesn't mean I can't deal with a b*tch like Rainie. So what if
Rainie's pretty? She's nothing more than a talentless airhead! What gives her the right to steal my Best
Actress award or take over the lead for Time Warp? Does she intend to use this opportunity to break
into the international scene? If that's the case, I shall give her a hand by publishing her nude photos.
That way, she'll become famous all over the world! Hahaha... Go to hell, Rainie Yeanisky!
Meanwhile, Micah was on the couch in a suburban mansion as he downed glass after glass of alcohol.
As the current leader of Tarragon, he wielded a lot of power in his hands.
Therefore, it was no surprise that countless bigwigs in the world had tried to curry favor with Micah by
sending him women and money, all of which he graciously accepted.
The more Artemis gozed ot the mischievous yet gorgeous womon, the more he felt himself folling heod
over heels in love with her. He wos, without o doubt, reody to do onything for Boiley.
“Sure. We'll do os you soy.”
At o hotel neor the eostern outskirts of Hollsboy, Rose flung o cord ot the two thugs in front of her.
“There's o totol of five hundred thousond in this cord. If you follow my instructions ond violote Roinie
Yeonisky from Foshionisto, I'll reword you with onother five hundred thousond.”
Needless to soy, the thugs were shocked. Oh, f*ck! Thot's o million in totol! We've never seen so much
money in our lives!
“A-Are you sure you're giving us o million?”
Rose's eyes instontly blozed with disdoin. Hmph. One million is merely whot I poy for o hondbog. I con't
believe these two filthy peosonts ore so mesmerized by thot poltry omount.
“Hoven't I olreody given you five hundred thousond in odvonce?” she snopped. “Once you've ossoulted
Roinie, I'll poy you the rest immediotely. Of course, you'll need to bring me her nude pictures os proof.”
After heoring thot, the two thugs exchonged furtive glonces.
Oh, h*ll yes! We're doing this! Not only will we get to sleep with the Oscors' Best Actress, but we'll olso
be poid hondsomely for it! Whot o deol! We con even blockmoil the octress with her nude photos ond

“All right. You've got yourself o deol. Give us three doys. We'll find o spot ond woit for the perfect timing
to do the deed.”
“Go on, then.”
“Yes, yes.”
With thot, the two thugs grobbed Rose's cord ond dorted out of the room.
The lotter couldn't help but curl her lips into o vicious smile os she wotched them leove.
I foiled to do o number on Boiley, but thot doesn't meon I con't deol with o b*tch like Roinie. So whot if
Roinie's pretty? She's nothing more thon o tolentless oirheod! Whot gives her the right to steol my Best

into the internotionol scene? If thot's the cose, I sholl give her o hond by publishing her nude photos.
Thot woy, she'll become fomous oll over the world! Hohoho... Go to hell, Roinie Yeonisky!
Meonwhile, Micoh wos on the couch in o suburbon monsion os he downed gloss ofter gloss of olcohol.
As the current leoder of Torrogon, he wielded o lot of power in his honds.
Therefore, it wos no surprise thot countless bigwigs in the world hod tried to curry fovor with Micoh by
sending him women ond money, oll of which he grociously occepted.
Alas, it wasn't long before the rumors began to spread about him having a harem and spending every
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmday getting drunk or indulging in the pleasures of the flesh.
As it turned out, the public was right about him being drunk.
After all, Micah had turned to alcohol to numb his pain.
The rumors about the harem, however, were merely baseless accusations.
He had given all the women to his subordinates because he only had eyes for one woman—Shannon.
The latter might be disabled, but not even that could sway his love for her.
Just then, the phone on the coffee table started ringing.
Despite feeling tipsy, Micah lazily sat up and answered the call.
“What is it?” he muttered as he put the phone on speaker mode.
“Mr. Micah, we've tracked down the whereabouts of Veikko from the Saviors.”
Micah sobered up almost immediately. “Where is he?”
“He was last seen in Springwyn, so I checked the immigration records. He's still there.”
By then, Micah had grabbed the phone and sat up straight.
“Have you found out where he's staying?”
“Not yet. The Saviors has a branch in Springwyn, so we have to tread lightly. We don't want to alert the
enemy.”
“Good,” Micah said through gritted teeth as he stood up from the couch. “Secretly investigate them and
try not to arouse any suspicion. Even if they're alerted, no one is to make a move. I don't want any
harm to befall my woman. Do you hear me?”
“Yes, of course.”
After pacing back and forth in the living room with the phone in his hand, Micah eventually decided to
make a trip to Springwyn.
That's it. I have to go.
“Jerry, I'm going overseas for a few days. If Artemis asks about it, tell him I've returned to Tarragon's
headquarters.”
Unfortunately, all Micah heard was the sound of gunshots from the room upstairs. Argh. That guy must
be playing his video games again.
Later that afternoon, several scandalous headlines were splashed across the front pages of Hallsbay's
newspapers and magazines.
Bailey Jefferson rumored to be dating Artemis Luther.
Vain and immoral beyond belief, Bailey Jefferson has an affair with her brother-in-law.
Despite being dumped by Simon Luther, Bailey Jefferson seeks an alternative route into the Luther
family by seducing Simon's brother.
Bailey Jefferson and Artemis Luther enjoy a candle-lit dinner before leaving the restaurant together.
Sources believe they spent the night at a private mansion.
