Chapter 347

Without hesitation, Dwayne replied, “Didn't you also have a bad reputation before? Despite that,Artemis is willing to marry you. Since I'm someone who hangs out with him, what's wrong with followinghis example?”

Not only was Bailey not mad when she heard Dwayne bring up her former notoriety, but she guffawedinstead. “All right, I'll leave Vicky to you. If you can cheer her up, you're considered to have passed herbest friend's test.”

“Thank you, Bailey.”

Inside a bedroom at the Jefferson residence, Beatrice sat on the bed as she answered her phone.

Her expression grew hideous as she listened to the report from the person on the phone.

“What did you just say? Artemis actually threw Ronni to the beggar and let him ruin her?”

“Y-Yes. That's what I found out from my investigation. Mrs. Jefferson, Ms. Rhonda is in quite a badstate.”

Beatrice's grip on the phone tightened.

Even if her daughter's reputation was currently in tatters, she had no intention of forcing Rhonda intoan early grave.

Rhonda was her only daughter. Beatrice had planned to rely on Rhonda as she grew old with age.

“Bring her back to the Jefferson residence immediately!”

“I...” The person on the other end wavered for a moment before gritting his teeth and continuing, “Mr.Luther arranged for a twenty-four-hour surveillance on Ms. Rhonda. We are unable to take any action.Moreover, she is already the beggar's legally wedded wife. It's only natural for her husband to keep herby his side, so we are unable to file a police report either.”

“You...” Beatrice was so enraged that her jaws creaked with the force of her gritted teeth.

She was about the reprimand the person when she suddenly thought of something. A smile appearedon her face.

That b*tch Zoey fed Ronni abortifacient. She even messed up Ronni's and Artemis' wedding. SinceZoey hates Ronni the most, I'll force her to rescue Ronni and make her feel disgusted.

With that, Beatrice hung up the phone. She then proceeded to contact a delivery person at Hallsbay'spost office.

“Hello, is this the post office? I have some documents that need to be sent. Could you please come tothe Jefferson residence?”

Meanwhile, inside a five-star hotel, Scarlett started bawling the moment she saw her mother.

“M-Mom! Y-You need to back me up and seek justice for me!”

A pained expression flitted across Tamara's face when she looked at her sobbing daughter in herembrace.

Scarlett had been sickly when she was younger. Seven years ago, she had finally been cured, but shewas currently afflicted with love sickness and was suffering because of it.

“Lettie, I came to Hallsbay precisely for the sake of your marriage with Justin. Rest assured, you will bethe one who marries into the Xuereb family.”

“B-But, he...”

“I heard about your situation. I thought Raiden came to Hallsbay to help you. I truly did not expect himto... Ugh, men are so unreliable.”

Scarlett's eyes immediately clouded over when she heard her mother mention Raiden. Her thoughtsturned to Bailey, the person who opposed her at every turn and the one who caused her downfall.

“Mom, you may not know this, but Raiden fell for Bailey. That woman has a son and a daughter. IfRaiden really manages to woo her, the Fletcher family will have to take in two bastard children.”

“What did you just say?” Tamara widened her eyes and glared at Scarlett in disbelief. “Raiden fell for awoman who already has two children?”

Scarlett was ecstatic when she saw how livid her mother was. I may still stand a chance against Bailey.

“Yes, he really fell for Bailey. Two days ago, he even let her board the naval warship. You know howhe's always been a stickler for rules. Three years ago, he flat-out refused when you requested him to

send you to the west sea with the warship. He even said something about how it's not appropriate touse the ship for personal reasons. But why is it okay when it comes to Bailey?”

The fury on Tamara's face intensified when she heard Scarlett's words.

“Bailey Jefferson, also known as the number one hacker, Spook. She's the one who hacked theresearch institute's data. She can't do whatever she wants just because she beat some 5G technology.As she stole information from the Fletcher family's heiress, we can send someone after her based onthis fact alone.”

Scarlett was over the moon.

Tamara regained her composure and continued, “I will get someone to leak the scandal about theRevelle family's second daughter, Veronique, having a child out of wedlock. Public opinion will force herback to Hallsbay. When she returns, I will take care of her.”

Meanwhile, in the garden of the Shurmer residence, Shirley was on the phone.

“Ms. Gourd, Ms. Stone continues to pester Mr. Shurmer daily. She even told Mr. Shurmer that she'salready severed her ties with Bailey Jefferson, thus enabling her to boldly pursue him without shamingher master.”

Shirley's grip on the phone tightened.

What an annoying and persistent person. I already warned her, but she continues to cling to Zeke like abarnacle.

“All right. Continue to monitor her. If there's any suspicious movement, call me immediately.”

“Of course.”

Zoey smirked as Shirley ended the call. “Like master, like disciple. One continues to pester her son'suncle, while the other clings to a married man. They truly have no limit nor bottom line.” novelbin

Shirley sighed. “What's the use of complaining? We should come up with a method to deal with them.”

Zoey grinned coldly. “I've already thought of a way to deal with that b*tch Juliana.”
