Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 646 Steal The Limelight

With a half smile on her face, Bailey lifted her brow at Raiden at the medical base beside the artificial lake. “Are you

a winged creature? You were at Dellmoor last night. How are you here in Hallsbay now?”

Raiden laughed upon hearing Bailey's sarcastic remarks. He teased, “I have no choice, as I have someone I love

here. No matter where I go, I will always miss this place.”

Bailey rolled her eyes at his response.

Straightforward as he is, Raiden didn't bother to phrase his words more tactfully. I guess he doesn't care whether I

can take it or not.

Bailey glared at Raiden and changed the subject. “I heard something happened to your dad. How is he now? Is he

okay?”

Sloan was an important leader, and his safety was the priority. If anything happened to him, it would shock the

nation.

Raiden's smile slowly vanished after hearing the mention of Sloan's name. “He fell sick abruptly because he was

under so much pressure, and it overburdened his body. Although he can still hold on, his condition is deteriorating.”

He continued, “As my dad had just gotten into power, he had many things that he wanted to achieve. He would

never listen to our advice to put everything behind him and rest at home. Ultimately, I think his body will only get

weaker from working through the day and night.”

Bailey nodded. “Maybe find ways to relieve his stress levels? Since the power transfer had been done, and

everything is going according to plan, he does not have to spread himself thin now.”

Raiden smiled bitterly, shaking his head. “I won't have to worry about him so much if he would listen to my advice!

Anyway, I want to hire a hypnotist to help him relax and destress.”

Bailey arched her brow upon hearing what he said. She realized why Raiden was in Hallsbay.

He must be here for me. And why so? I think I have guessed it.

“Hypnotist? That's too risky. You and I both know how an internationally famous top-tier hypnotist can establish a

mental bridge to communicate with their patients. Mr. Fletcher's mind is full of the country's confidential

information. If an ill-intentioned outsider manages to decrypt the essential information in his brain, the

consequences would be devastating!”

Raiden smiled.

Hey, why is she so direct? I can't keep her in suspense after she said that.

“So I take it that you guessed my purpose of looking for you here. I shall not keep you guessing, you wise woman.

Bailey, I want to know the whereabouts of the best hypnotist, Ethereal. Can you tell me where she is?”

Bailey eyed Raiden with a half smile. She raised her brow. “Why are you sure that Ethereal won't steal confidential

information stored in your dad's brain? You don't know her, so why do you trust her? It's hard to tell what a person

is thinking. Moreover, she is a stranger with a strange personality. This may be a bad idea as it is very risky. I would

advise you to get rid of that thought right now. Don't cause any trouble!”

Raiden gave her a side-eye as he smiled faintly. “Why? Are you scared that you will be implicated in this matter if

anything goes wrong? Are you afraid that we will find trouble with you if Ethereal steals the confidential information

in my dad's mind?”

Bailey rolled her eyes in response.

Reverse psychology, huh? I'm not one to fall for this trick.

“All right. I shall agree to your request if you would not take no for an answer. Give me three days, and I'll give you

an answer then.”

“It will be great if you excel in hypnosis. Then, I don't have to hire Ethereal to do this for me. After all, we are good

friends, and we trust each other. If I have to choose between you and Ethereal, I will choose you without any

questions asked!” Raiden grinned.

Bailey waved her hands dismissively as she walked back into the house. “Forget it. Your mom hates me. She won't

think twice about skinning me alive! If I'm tasked to hypnotize your dad, she would be the first to oppose the idea. I

will not subject myself to that kind of humiliation. Nobody wants to do such an arduous and thankless job. Neither

do I!”

Thoughts flashed across Bailey's mind. I have a few acquaintances that are great at hypnosis, and I'll get them to

work with Mr. Fletcher. Even though Raiden worries that the hypnotists will steal his dad's confidential information, I

trust my friends. They can replace me, for I don't wish to reveal my identity as Ethereal!

As the public heard the rumor that Ethereal had mastered a long-lost skill—the dream-making technique, it would

cause an uproar if Ethereal presented her talent before the public eye.

Moreover, Bailey didn't want to steal the limelight anymore. She only wanted to live her life peacefully and quietly.

A tenderness flashed across Raiden's eyes as he stared at Bailey's back. He was serious about Bailey being the one

he loved.

Even though he still had a long life to live, he knew there was a high possibility that he would never be attracted to

another woman like how he had fallen in love with Bailey.

He couldn't help thinking to himself. Yes, although I met her too late in my life, which caused me many

disappointments, I don't regret knowing her. Only those who had fallen deeply in love will know how I feel now. I

know for a fact that no other woman can make her the way I love and care for Bailey. Protecting her quietly isn't a

bad idea, and watching her be happy with some other men is a blessing too. At least she got to live life the way I

wished she could.

“Why are you still standing there? Come inside! The weather is freezing out there!” The sound of Bailey's sweet

voice pulled Raiden back into reality.

He shook his head. “I've got to go visit Scarlett next.”

Realization dawned on Bailey.

Oh, I guess she had already done IVF? Maybe she is waiting for the right time to hold Justin responsible for her

pregnancy. Judging by how snobbish Mrs. Xuereb is, she will definitely ask Scarlett to stay at the Xuereb residence

and force Justin to marry her.

Gosh. How pathetic! Scarlett has become another version of Shirley! With her title as Lady Scarlett, a great future

awaits her if she can put her obsession behind her. Scarlett ruined her advantages by compulsively going after

something she shouldn't be seeking for! I can already imagine her tragic end. Yet, I don't pity her at all.

At the hotel, sympathy filled Raiden as he stood at the suite entrance, narrowing his eyes at Scarlett, who looked all

skin and bones.

Oh my! What happened to Lady Scarlett, who came from a wealthy, prestigious family? Why must she torture

herself for a man who doesn't love her?

“Dad is sick. Are you going to return to Dellmoor with me or not?”

A glint flashed across Scarlett's eyes. She gritted her teeth. “Will I be safe if I head back? Won't you send me to jail

then?”

Raiden shook his head. “You harmed others because of your selfishness, and I can't forgive you on behalf of those

victims, so I will still send you to the court for justice!”
