Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis)

Chapter 236

After the person repeated what was said, Bailey observed how Artemis' face became even gloomier,

and she could not help but feel curious.

For that b*stard to reveal such an expression, something major must have happened.

“All right. I'll head there right away.”

After Artemis ended the call, she raised her eyebrow and asked, “Did Rhonda create more trouble

again?”

Rolling his eyes at her, Artemis replied firmly, “Rhonda had a miscarriage. The preliminary diagnosis is

that she accidentally took some abortifacient.”

What?

Bailey was shocked for a while. When she returned to her senses, she widened her eyes and

exclaimed, “What did you say? Rhonda took some abortifacient? How is that possible? She's relying on

her baby to become the future matriarch of the Luther family. How could she possibly ruin her own

future?”

As Artemis narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint appeared in them for a moment. “That means

someone gave her the abortifacient,” he concluded nonchalantly. “In more straightforward terms, she

blocked someone's path, which caused that person to develop a grudge against her.”

Bailey fell silent at that. After a long while, she asked, “Could the culprit be from the branch family of

the Luthers? Now that there are more children added to the direct line of descent, the main family can

grow its monopoly. If the branch family eliminated Rhonda's child, it would be equivalent to diminishing

the main family's power. In turn, they'll get a greater share of power.”

“It's hard to tell,” replied Artemis solemnly. “It's possible that the father of her illegitimate child did it. He

probably noticed that something was wrong and wanted to avoid future complications. After all, if I find

out who he is, I'll never let him off the hook easily.”

Bailey stood up from the couch. “Let's go. I'll follow you to visit the Luther family. Perhaps I can pick up

a clue from the abortifacient.”

“Okay.”

At the Luther residence, the bedroom was filled with wails.

From a distance away, one could already hear Felicity screaming at the top of her lungs. “Dear Lord,

how has the Luther family sinned? Why did these tragedies happen to our grandsons one after the

other? Are you deliberately torturing my grandsons because you can't bear to see the Luther family

prosper?”

Rhonda's sorrowful cries ensued.

In the meantime, Bailey suddenly halted in her tracks.

If she barged in directly, Rhonda, that crazy woman, would definitely cling to her and accuse her of

everything.

Although she did not mind it, it did not mean that she would be eager to put herself in such a horrible

position and get scolded by someone else.

“I don't think I'll enter. Tell the person in charge of the infirmary to let me have a look at Rhonda's

medical report. Get him to show me the food that contained the abortifacient, too.”

Artemis glanced at the butler, ordering, “Follow her instructions.”

“Understood.”

With that, Bailey turned around and went downstairs.

Artemis watched her leave before entering Rhonda's bedroom.

When the two women at the bed saw him enter, they became even more emotional.

Felicity staggered over and buried herself in Artemis' arms.

Although he frowned, he still hugged her back. No matter what, she was still his biological mother.

“Artemis, how has the Luther family sinned? Why are the heavens treating my grandsons like this? It

happened to Max, and now, Ronni's child has also...”

The moment she finished speaking, Rhonda tried to rush out of the bed and jump into Artemis' arms.

When Artemis saw that, he uttered calmly, “Stay on the bed and don't move. Rest well. There are only

a few days before the wedding. If you can't recover in time, how can the wedding continue?”

Rhonda's wails stopped abruptly.

Looking at him in surprise, she asked hoarsely, “A-Artemis? Now that my child's gone, t-the wedding is

still continuing as planned?”

Artemis did not answer her directly. Instead, he glanced at the maids at the side, pointed at Rhonda,

and asked, “Who is she?”

The maids exchanged glances with each other, not daring to respond first.

After a while, one of the maids could not bear the pressure anymore and replied timidly, “M-Mr. Luther,

she's Mrs. Luther.”

Artemis suddenly laughed before responding in a relaxed tone, “Get twice the amount of your salary

from the butler later. Your salary will be doubled from now on.”

The maid was stunned for a while before a look of joy appeared on her face.

When the others saw the perks that she received, they quickly addressed Rhonda as “Mrs. Luther.”

Smiling, Artemis looked at Rhonda and asked with a raised eyebrow, “Did you see that? Now that the

entire world knows that you're Mrs. Luther, how can we possibly cancel the wedding? Just lie on the

bed. Don't worry too much, and rest well. After that, you'll become the world's happiest and most

beautiful bride in your best state.”

Felicity left Artemis' embrace and walked to the bed. Holding Rhonda's hand, she stated hoarsely, “Be

a good girl and rest well. After the wedding, both of you still can have a child. Don't be too sad, and

stop overthinking.”

Rhonda was elated.

Even though I had a miscarriage, Artemis is still willing to marry me. Does it mean Artemis has finally

noticed my sacrifices for him and has decided to spend the rest of his life with me? In that case, I'm

glad that the b*stard in my womb is gone. After marrying him, I have plenty of chances to become

pregnant with his child and give birth to a true heir for the Luther family.

“Okay. I'll listen to you. I'll recover well and prepare to become a good bride.”

In the infirmary, as Bailey reviewed the report on the medicine's remnants and Rhonda's medical

report, she fell into deep thought.

“How is it? Did you notice anything?”

Artemis' voice rang out beside her ear, jolting her back to her senses.

Passing one of the report sheets to him, she explained calmly, “These are the remains of the medicine.

After I did a test, it's confirmed that it contains an abortifacient. Furthermore, the abortifacient is

extremely strong and has very harmful effects on the womb. Rhonda probably can't become a mother

in the future. The culprit is very ruthless.”

Artemis grabbed the report and scanned it.

I don't understand anything.

“I'll instruct someone to investigate which pharmacies the medicine is sold at. Let's see if we can find

any clues.”

Shaking her head, Bailey sighed. “Medicines like these are prohibited in the country. The culprit

probably got their hands on it from overseas. If we were to track it, it'll be like looking for a needle in a

haystack.”

Artemis fell silent.

Bailey patted his shoulder and reassured him with a smile, “That baby wasn't your child, anyway, so the

miscarriage doesn't really matter. This is Rhonda's karma for all the evil deeds she has done. To be

honest, even if I didn't do anything, she'd still have dug her own grave.”

Soon, news of Rhonda's miscarriage spread, and everyone knew about it in no time.

Naturally, barely anyone in the public felt pity for her. Instead, they were gloating over it.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

After all, why should all the good things just happen to Rhonda? As a daughter from a middle-class

family, she was not worthy enough to become the matriarch of the Luther family. Now that it was almost

the wedding, she deserved to have that sudden miscarriage.

A loud thud rang out in the study room at the Shurmer residence.

Zeke threw the papers in his hands on the table and glared at Zoey coldly. He then bellowed, “Explain

to me what happened!”
