Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis)

Chapter 848 Mistaking Ant For Goddess

“That's impossible, Daddy. Could you have made a mistake? She's Bailey! Whether it's her voice or

appear appearance, both match Bailey's perfectly. There are no signs of plastic surgery, too.”

Philip was furious. He directly slapped his son's face, angrily saying, “Fool! Don't you understand?

Bailey is proficient in the long-lost art of disguise. The woman you poisoned was a suicide attacker who

had changed her appearance. The real Bailey has gone to confront Sofie at Tarragon Headquarters.”

Tucker staggered back and plopped down onto the couch.

He was so smug, lost in the intoxicating embrace of that woman. Little did he know she was nothing but

a fake.

“Daddy, what should we do now? Since Bailey didn't die, she will return to Moranta. Without Sofie's

help, we can't win against her.”

Philip pressed his palm on his forehead, his eyes emitting a deep, chilling light. “We'll have to force

your Uncle Raymond to abdicate and demand that he hand over the rein of the Hoffman family.”

“An eye for an eye.” Tucker sat up straight, nodding in agreement as he added, “To avoid

complications, we must seize it as soon as possible. If that old man is willing to hand over his position,

we can let him live on borrowed time. If he refuses, I'll have no choice but to ask Kurt to poison them to Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

death.”

Philip lightly hummed in agreement. “Then let's proceed as planned. We'll wreak havoc within the

family business. Once your uncle can't deal with it anymore, we'll join forces with the family elders to

force him to step down. If he refuses, we'll have no choice but to eliminate him.”

Tucker suddenly sprang up from the couch, striding toward the door. “All right. I'll go arrange it right

away.”

He was eager to rush to the manor and tear off the imposter's mask to see who she really was.

Just the thought of having spent so much time with a cold-hearted, ruthless suicide attacker made him

feel sick to his stomach. Like a fool, I mistook her for my goddess and f*cked her. Just thinking about

that makes me feel messed up!

Inside the armory of a Saviors' branch, Veikko was donning his gear, all of which were advanced, lethal

laser weapons.

Since the decision to kill Shaun had been made, it must be carried out flawlessly.

Zeke asked from the side, “Are you sure you don't want me to go with you? You don't have to be polite

to me. If Bailey treats you like a brother, I can also consider you as one.”

Snap!

After loading the pistol, Veikko tucked it directly into his military boots.

As he strapped on his wrist guard, he spoke. “To kill that b*stard, I alone am enough. As long as he

shows up, there's no way he can escape.”

Zeke wanted to say something. Just as his lips began to move, the phone on the desk rang.

Veikko gestured for him to be quiet, then slid to answer the call and turned on the speaker.

In the next moment, Shaun's voice came through the phone.

“My dear brother, I'm truly sorry. I have an important guest to meet tonight, so I'm afraid I won't be able

to show up. How about this? You go alone, and I'll arrange for a few novices from Galaxy Club to take

good care of you so that you can enjoy yourself too. I'm just wondering if you dare to touch a woman or

if such matters repulse you. After all, you've had experiences with a few men in the past, so it's

understandable if you have some reservations about this.”

Crack!

Veikko crushed the wineglass he was holding directly in his hand.

The experience from years ago had inflicted an unhealable wound in his heart.

As time passed, it gradually became a taboo for him.

As such, he was furious that Shaun picked on his wound. “Are you messing with me?”

“Sure. Let's just say that's the case. In any case, I won't be attending the appointment today. If you feel

like unwinding a bit, you can take a trip there. I'll cover all the expenses.” After Shaun finished

speaking, he immediately ended the call.

As Veikko listened to the beeping tone coming from the receiver, his anger surged violently. I've already

received intel that he set up an intricate trap at the club, just waiting for me to walk right into it. What

happened? Why did he suddenly cancel the meeting?

After a moment of silence, he turned his head towards Zeke on the couch, furrowing his brows as he

asked, “What do you think?”

Zeke shook his head, attempting to explain, “I've never dealt with Shaun, so I don't know his

temperament. However, ever since you incapacitated him, he has become unpredictable, his moods

shifting like the weather. Perhaps he's devising a more effective way to deal with you. Let's wait and

see what happens.”

Veikko, somewhat angrily, slammed his phone down on the desk. “All right. If he wants to play, then I'll

play along with him. By the way, did Bailey mention when she'll be back?”

Zeke smiled meaningfully. “The time isn't right for her return yet. After Sofie successfully escapes, she'll

likely rush to Moranta to vie with Mr. Philip for the remaining power. Bailey is probably waiting for them

to fight until they're both badly hurt. When that happens, she can swoop in and take them all down at

once without lifting a finger.”

After three days of navigating through Mortality Base, Sofie, Damien, as well as her team, successfully

escaped.

As soon as she established a signal connection with the outside world, she received an anonymous

email.

The email mentioned that Tucker already knew about her illegitimate child with Philip. He had even

dispatched a large number of people to search for the child.

After reading the email, Sofie was so angry that she almost smashed her laptop. It's that brat again! I

ordered him to kill Bailey, but he ended up killing a decoy, leading to my entire army's defeat! Now, he

has the audacity to target my son! He's truly despicable! If I didn't care about his father, I would have

had him secretly killed a long time ago. “Damien, let's first go to Pandera to save my son first. Perhaps

we may even be able to lure Tucker over with him. After Tucker leaves the Hoffman family's territory, it

will be much easier for us to kill him. Once he's dead, my son will be Philip's only heir. When the time

comes, we'll take down Philip, and then the entire Hoffman family will be under our control.”

With a raised eyebrow and a smile, Damien wrapped his arm around her. They then walked toward the

convoy parked in the dense forest. “All right. I'll accompany you first to save my adopted son. Then the

three of us will go to Moranta as a family to kick up a fuss in the Hoffman family.”

Upon receiving his agreement, Sofie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. “Thank you so much,

Damien. I will make sure my son treats you with great respect in the future.”

“Haha.”

Inside the master's bedroom of Tarragon Headquarters, Artemis leaned against the headboard, his

handsome face still somewhat pale.

Bailey was carefully applying medicine to the wound on his abdomen.

While Artemis stared at the delicate face before him, his mind stirred. Leaning in close to her ear, he

asked, “You didn't reconnect my sperm tubes just so we could have a baby, did you?”
