Female Novel
Chapter 280
In the underground parking lot of Century Hotel, Caridee and Rhonda got out of a Rolls-Roycelimousine.
Donning the gown Bailey had designed for her coming-of-age ceremony, Caridee shined brightly onthis day.
The pink gown further amplified her elegance and beauty, yet at the same time, she looked like a pure,innocent white lily.
The gown she wore was destined to be the center of attraction tonight.
Through this gown she designed, Bailey, too, would very likely become The Ultimate Designer andtriumph over her competitors.
“Caridee, I'm afraid I have to leave you on your own for now. My friend is on her way here. She askedme to wait for her in the parking lot.”
Caridee was not bothered at all. Upon hearing her words, she didn't bother asking about this friend ofhers. Instead, she waved dismissively and said, “All right. You do your things. I'll head over to thebanquet hall first.”
As Caridee got into the elevator, Rhonda whipped out a pair of sunglasses from her bag and put themon before sneaking into a corridor.
“Are you there?” she shouted toward the door upon reaching the entrance.
In the next second, a massive hand reached out from the dark and dragged her inside.
“Shh.” Cadence gestured for her to be quiet and said in a low voice, “It's me. Keep quiet.”
Rhonda bobbed her head continuously in response. As soon as he removed his hand from her mouth,she quickly said, “The ceremony is starting soon. What should I do? It's not easy to kidnap those twob*stards of Bailey. They are here in Century Hotel today, but they are well protected. I would be bustedin an instant if I moved against them.”
Cadence smiled coldly, his eyes filled with hostility. “Change of plans. Artemis is trying to lure me intohis trap. I won't give him the chance!”
Hearing this, Rhonda started losing her temper. “Then why did you ask me to meet you here? If youdon't have a plan, you should return to hiding properly.”
Cadence passed a bottle to Rhonda. “Forget about kidnapping them. I need you to poison them. Makesure you feed them this poison. Bailey will have to come looking for me for antidotes if you succeed,and I will force her into surrendering the evidence by then.”
He would never let the evidence of those crimes leak out.
Although half a month of imprisonment was nothing, it would tarnish the reputation he had worked hardto build over the years, leaving all his achievements in ruins. When that happened, there would be nomore place for him in the medical world.
Rhonda narrowed her eyes at the bottle in her hand. She asked with a frown, “What will this poison do
to the human body?”
Cadence let her go and answered, “That's none of your concern. What you should be concerned aboutis the task I gave you. Mess it up, and your naughty photos will be all over the media by tomorrow.”
“You...”
Rhonda's eyes burned with intense hatred as she tightened her grip on the bottle.
Bailey, Zoey, you guys put me in this situation I'm in today! I'll make both of you pay for what you havedone to me!
Meanwhile, a commotion broke out in the hall upon Caridee's arrival.
Several international socialites gathered around her, their faces filled with envy.
“Caridee, you're lucky to have such a famous designer as your sister-in-law. Ms. Snowflake'smasterpiece is not something anyone can easily get their hands on.”
“That's right! I told my father to help me get in touch with Ms. Snowflake back then. We told her wewould pay her handsomely to design a gown for me, but she turned us down.”
“Same here.”
“Me too.”
Caridee couldn't help but smile happily at the sight of the beautiful gown she was wearing.
Just then, Rhonda entered the hall, drawing attention to herself in an instant.
The socialite standing beside Caridee was quick to mock, “Caridee, your second sister-in-law isSnowflake and Anonymous, which makes her even more outstanding. Speaking of which, your eldestsister-in-law should have better achievements than her, but who would've thought she's just a slut whoflirts with other men at a wedding? They are sisters and also sisters-in-law, but why is there such amassive gap between them?”
Another socialite chimed in, “She's right. Caridee, you should stay away from that eldest sister-in-law ofyours who brought shame to the Luther family. Don't let her presence taint your eyes.”
Rhonda slowly halted in her tracks and clenched her fists that hung by her sides.
The inquisitive gazes and comments directed at her pierced through her like steely blades, leaving noparts of her unscathed.
“That's my sister-in-law there!” Caridee suddenly let out a shout. novelbin
Upon hearing Caridee's words, Rhonda was full of smiles, for she thought Caridee was referring to her.
To Rhonda's dismay, Caridee grabbed the hem of her skirt and ran past her before wrapping her armsaround Bailey's.
It turned out that she was referring to Bailey.
The vortex of anger that swirled inside Rhonda almost made her explode on the spot.
What happened next further erupted the flame burning strong in Rhonda, for with her arms stillwrapping around Bailey's, Caridee announced, “I only have a sister-in-law, and she's Bailey. I knowsomeone else is around, but she's not considered my sister-in-law—not before a proper marriage.”
Her words had Rhonda's body shaking violently.
After all, Caridee was somewhat like a lackey to her back then. She would always follow behind herregardless of the occasion, but things were different now.
Bailey! This b*tch has stolen everything from me! I want her child dead! I long to see you suffer the painof losing your child again!
“Mr. Luther, and the organizer, Mr. Kenwood, is here.”
A commotion ensued when the two slender figures entered the hall, surrounded by a group of people insuits.
Bailey's gaze fell upon Artemis precisely at once, and she found it surprising.
Since when have I started to look for him in a crowd?
Caridee leaned over to Bailey's ears and whispered, “Look how charming my brother is! Women allover the world go crazy for him. I won't be surprised if you tell me you're in love with him. Bailey, I'mrooting for both of you! Since Simon has a girlfriend and is not determined to marry you, you couldmarry Artemis. It's all the same!”
Bailey was left speechless.
Just as Caridee was whispering to her, the person in charge of the ceremony walked up to her andreached out for a handshake. “It is an honor to meet you, Ms. Snowflake. I've heard so much aboutyou!”
Bailey shook hands with him and quirked her brows. “It is also an honor to meet you, the founder ofThe Grand Fashion Show, Mr. Kenwood.”
Joshua Kenwood laughed out loud before turning toward Artemis, who was standing beside him. “Mr.Luther, I know you know each other, but I still have to do it. This is Snowflake, The Ultimate Designerwho got all the spotlight for herself four years ago.”
Artemis looked at the lady standing before him, his gaze gentle.
Ever since he entered the banquet hall, he had never looked away from her.
On this very night, the stage belonged to her and her alone. He believed she would shine brightly andstun everyone with her talents.
“In my opinion, Ms. Snowflake will still triumph over her competitors and become The UltimateDesigner again!”
