Chapter 605

Meanwhile, in the hotel, Tamara took Scarlett's hand in hers, sat on the couch, and said quietly, “Oliviacalled me half an hour ago and said Justin's sperm had been extracted from his body. I've already sentsomeone to retrieve it. For now, your eggs will be extracted from your body, and once the test-tubebaby is ready, I will instruct someone to implant it in your body.”

Scarlett seemed overjoyed with the news. She grabbed Tamara's arm and asked anxiously, “Mom, is itreally Justin's? You're not lying to me, right? I'm telling you right now that if it's not Justin's, I won't carryit even if it means having a miscarriage. I'd rather die than have the child of another man.”

Tamara glared at her and snarled, “Is your mother that untrustworthy in your eyes? I'm well aware ofyour personality. Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt you.”

Tamara then turned to the female bodyguard standing nearby and said, “Be quick. Time is running out.Quickly extract her eggs and leave.”

“Yes, Mrs. Fletcher,” the female bodyguard replied.

Tamara reached out and yanked Scarlett up, pulling her toward the bedroom. “This is all I can do foryou, Lettie. I did this behind your father's back. He'd be furious if he found out, but that doesn't matterbecause I care more about you. How could I bear seeing my precious daughter spend the rest of herlife in prison?”

Scarlett turned to face Tamara and wanted to say something, but she stopped her.

Tamara urged, “Go on. Don't waste time. All my previous efforts will be for naught if your brother findsout.”

Scarlett went into the bedroom without saying anything.

Meanwhile, at the Jefferson residence, Rhonda wandered around the silent garden after beingescorted back by a few bodyguards.

Although the Jefferson family was not a prestigious family in the past, they were still one of thewealthiest families in Hallsbay, with a lot of maids.

However, the Jefferson residence was in a desolate state at the moment. Rhonda walked all the wayfrom the front door to the Jefferson residence, but she didn't see a single servant.

As Rhonda ascended the stairs and entered the living room, an unusual sound came from within.

She looked up instinctively and saw a man and a woman hooking up on the couch.

Rhonda recognized her. It was Beatrice, her mother, and she had personally committed Rhonda, herown daughter, to a psychiatric hospital.

Rhonda had no idea who the man on Beatrice's belly was. He should be the lover she has kept outsideall these years.

A family that has fallen into such a state. It's ironic and ridiculous to watch.

“Ahh!” Beatrice screamed violently from the couch, seemingly sensing someone at the door. She wasslightly taken aback when she got a good look at the visitor. “R-Ronni, w-why are you here?”

Rhonda stared at her coldly and said hoarsely, “Put your clothes on. Don't sully my eyes.”

“Huh? Oh, all right.” Beatrice stretched her hand out to push away the man on top of her and wore herclothes frantically. Realizing something was wrong while putting on clothes, she raised her head andlooked at Rhonda in bewilderment. “Y-You've recovered from your madness?”

Rhonda glanced at her coldly and walked toward the stairs. “Bailey did it. I'll just stay home, hoping thatthe b*tch's body won't be found and that she'll die a horrible death.”

Beatrice gulped as she was taken aback by Rhonda's hostile and murderous aura. “Uh... Your father isin the infirmary. His condition is not very good. He'll probably only be able to live for a few more days.”

Rhonda did not stop. As she walked, she said, “Find a place to bury him if he dies. Living is also a formof torment.”

Rhonda's words were met with silence.

Meanwhile, in the living room at the Shurmer residence, Zoey was whimpering and crying in Waverly'sarms. “M-Mom, just expel me from the Shurmer family. Everyone outside thinks I'm Sophia's illegitimatechild. I'm disgusting. I'm afraid that staying with the Shurmer family will tarnish the Shurmer family'sreputation.”

Zoey was astute because she knew how to appear weak and pitiful.

The sight of Zoey's tears broke Waverly's heart.

After all, Waverly had raised Zoey on her own and had always adored her, so how could she remainindifferent?

“Zozo, how could you think that? We should provide you with more protection precisely because timesare hard right now. How could we drive you out of the house? Please, no more crying and nonsense. IfI had known in advance that Zeke would expose this matter in front of countless reporters, I wouldn'thave let him get away with it even if it meant knocking him out and locking him up at home.”

“But it has already happened,” Zoey choked out.

“That's right. It has already happened, so you have to be strong and face them head-on. Those peopleenjoy gossiping, so let them. Why are you sad when you have nothing to lose?”

“But—”

“Shh, it's going to be all right. Everything is going to be all right.”

Zoey nestled in her arms and probed tentatively, “Mom, will you allow Bailey to come back to reclaimher identity?”

Waverly was a little hesitant to answer her.

After this incident, I've seen through a lot of things and subconsciously approved of Bailey as mydaughter. Could I tell her that I'd allow her to reclaim her identity?

When Zoey noticed Waverly's hesitation, her expression turned gloomy instantly.

This old lady is sympathizing with Bailey. As expected, the bond between mothers and their children,as well as blood ties, is unbreakable.

In that case, don't blame me for being cruel.

Zoey had devised a brilliant plan to make Waverly despise Bailey: getting rid of the baby in Shirley'sbelly and framing it on Bailey.

With the way this old lady is anticipating the birth of her grandson, if she found out Bailey causedShirley to miscarry for the sake of her disciple, Waverly would definitely rush to her and tear her apart.

Yeah, let's do that!

“It's only natural for you to let Bailey return, Mom. After all, she is your biological daughter. I'll get alongwith her,” Zoey said.

Waverly let out a soft sigh. “Even if I let her return, she may not want to. We'll see.” With that, she stoodup and walked toward the stairwell. “I'll go upstairs to check on Shirley. Don't overthink it. You shouldavoid going out during this time. Just stay at home with Shirley.”

“Okay.”

The phone in Zoey's hand rang just as Waverly walked away.

When she lowered her eyes and looked at the screen, she saw a text message from Sophia that read:Yvette has succeeded. Artemis has lost all his memories of Bailey. After Artemis returns in a few days,

you can stay by his side in place of Yvette. It depends on you now whether you can make him fall inlove with you.

Zoey was overjoyed after she read Sophia's text message.

Artemis lost his memory? He's forgotten about Bailey? Haha, that's great. I'm looking forward to seeingBailey's devastated and heartbroken expression. It would undoubtedly be a sight to behold.

At the entrance of the Gezmond residence, Victor was cursing at the top of his lungs, and every wordhit a nerve.

Victoria wanted to rush out several times to argue with Victor, but she was stopped by the butler,Michelle.

Michelle stated, “Mrs. Gezmond, Mr. Gezmond has instructed that you are not to see your brotherbecause he has lost control.” novelbin

Victoria looked at her with tears in her eyes and yelled, “Are we just going to let him slander Lionel?”
