Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 339

After sitting up in bed, she leaned back and asked, “How is Max doing? Does he have a fever after thevenom was neutralized?”

Artemis handed a cup of warm water to her. “Drink some water to warm your stomach. I'll get someoneto bring you some food in a while.”

As Bailey took the cup from his hand, she noticed a slight change in their relationship.

Both of them wanted to talk about the elephant in the room, but neither dared to start first.

“I...”

“I...”

“You go first.”

“No, you first.”

Cocking his brow, Artemis reached out his hand to caress her cheeks before breaking into a smile.“Fine, I'll go first. I acted rashly back then and got you pregnant without your knowledge. I apologize forthat.”

Bailey rolled her eyes as she mumbled, “You don't sound sincere at all.”

Enamored by her reaction, Artemis couldn't resist sitting by her side and pulling her into his embrace. novelbin

“I still remember what you told me at Luther Group back then. You said that the man was a rabid dogand that you would castrate him if you saw him again. Now that he's right in front of you, do you stillwant to do it?”

Bailey shot him a glare.

He must be teasing me for not carrying out my threats. D*mn this b*stard!

With a gentle smile, Artemis nuzzled his head against her neck as he joked, “Just admit it if you can'tbring yourself to do it. I promise I won't laugh at you. After all, we're both adults and will be sleepingfrequently with each other. If I were to be castrated, it would be the bane of your sexual life.”

Bailey didn't know what to say.

What sort of nonsense is he spouting?

Thump! Thump!

Suddenly, a knock on the door was heard.

Artemis' face turned grim at having their banter interrupted.

“What is it?”

“Mr. Luther, Mr. Maxton is awake.”

Without a moment's delay, Bailey pushed Artemis aside and jumped out of bed.

When he saw her reaction, Artemis massaged his forehead.

Is her son all that matters to her?

When she noticed how annoyed he looked, Bailey couldn't help but smile. She subsequently walkedover and planted a kiss on his lips before suggesting warmly, “Now that our child has returned from thebrink of death, we, as his parents, should go see him at once. Since we have plenty of time for eachother in the future, what are you so anxious about?”

I'm not the one that's anxious, something else is.

Inside the ward, the doctor was fixing up an IV drip for Maxton, who was grimacing throughout theentire process.

“B-Be gentle.”

This is scary!

Annoyed by how his brother was reacting, Zayron snatched the needle from the doctor's hand and—before Maxton could resist—stabbed the needle into the latter's vein.

“Aah!”

The agonized scream was so loud that it could be heard through the entire corridor.

When Bailey heard the faint cry of her son, her heart skipped a beat as she picked up her pace.

The moment she barged into the ward and noticed Maxton glaring at his brother with teary eyes, shetwisted Zayron's ear before even saying a word.

“You naughty boy, why did you bully him again?”

Zayron rolled his eyes.

Who's the elder one, and who's the younger one? Who's bullying who now? Just as expected, Mommydoesn't love me anymore with him around. I should have killed him just now with the needle!

Ignoring the grumpy look on Zayron's face, Bailey strode up to Maxton's bedside and pulled him into ahug.

“What happened?”

Maxton remained silent.

Instead, it was the doctor who explained, “Just now, Mr. Zayron took the needle from me and stabbed itinto Mr. Maxton's vein. It probably hurt, but there's no need to worry because the needle hit the rightspot.”

“All right, I understand.”

After the doctor left, Artemis lead Zayron out, leaving the mother and son inside.

Bailey hugged her son tightly as if she was holding the world in her arms.

In a choked voice, she apologized, “Max, I'm sorry. I have failed you by losing you back then.”

The wonderful sensation of his mother's embrace elicited a gleeful chuckle from Maxton.

“It's fine, as I've been living the good life with the Luther family. It's not like I grew up in a beggar's den,fated to be one of them. There's no need to blame yourself at all.”

Bailey's heart was warmed by his words.

To even know how to comfort me, my son has grown up to be so sensible.

“Mommy, I'm older than Zayron, aren't I?”

Pfft!

Unable to help herself, Bailey burst out in laughter.

Cognizant of what was on his mind, she replied in a gentle tone, “That's correct. You're the elder of thetwo. Even if you aren't, I have the last word on the matter. If that naughty Zayron dares to cause youtrouble, I'll definitely teach him a lesson.”

“You're the best, Mommy!”

Outside, Artemis cocked a brow when he saw Zayron gloomily leaning against the wall.

Upon walking up to the latter, he ruffled Zayron's hair. “It's the same if I spoil you.”

Goosebumps rose on Zayron's skin, and he slapped his father's hand away. “You're making me cringe,Ratemis.”

“Haha!”

Inside a private room in a café by the corner of the street, Wendy hissed at Rose, “Didn't I already tellyou that we shouldn't meet for the time being while being the talk of the town? Why did you refuse tolisten?”

Lowering her head slightly, Rose flashed a smirk.

This woman is such a hypocrite. Despite her repeated claims that we're best friends, they're nothingbut a lie. She'll definitely throw me under the bus at the first sign of trouble. However, I don't care aboutall that anymore. Now that my reputation is in tatters, I just need to use her in my revenge againstVictoria.

“Of course it's something urgent. You have seen for yourself the pictures exposed two days ago. Nowthat we have successfully made Victoria the talk of the town, she would drown in ridicule if we reveal tothe public that she's Mr. Gezmond's mistress.”

Wendy was gripped by hesitancy.

Should I do this? The fame and reputation Lionel has painstakingly built will be destroyed if this scandalbreaks. Do I really want to throw the currently peaceful life into chaos just because of Victoria?

“Don't act rashly. Let me think about it first.” Picking up her bag, Wendy then warned, “Next time, don'tever ask to meet unless it's something urgent. It's not like you're not aware of your currentpredicament.”

With that, she strode right out the door.

Watching her leaving silhouette, Rose couldn't help but sneer.

Hmph, you're so naive. Do you think I'll stay my hand just because you asked me to? No matter what,I'm going to expose Lionel's mistress and wreck chaos upon your marriage. Now that my reputation isruined, what makes you think you can continue living the high life in a prominent family? If I'm beingdragged through the mud, I'll make sure that you join me.

Inside the living room of the Jefferson residence, Beatrice was taking a call while leaning against thecouch.

Upon being informed of something, she sprang to her feet with a drastic change in her expression.

“What are you trying to say? What do you mean by Ms. Rhonda has been exposed?”

“Mrs. Jefferson, all of Ms. Rhonda's misdeeds have been revealed, including stealing a child and lyingabout its identity to the Luther family. Furthermore, she even planted a venomous snake that bit Mr.Maxton. Hence, the Luther family wants her to be imprisoned for life.”

Beatrice's legs suddenly gave out as she fell back onto the couch.

It's over. Everything's over.
