Bailey was in a dangerous position.

“Answer me. Are you the designer that Luther Group invited over?”

Bailey coughed lightly and replied, “I am. You made an appointment with me before, but you were busy with your schedule. I was afraid of disturbing you, so I declined your invitation. I'm sorry.”

Artemis lifted the corners of his thin lips to form a wry smile as a bitter sensation surfaced in his heart.

He remembered how compliant she was when Edmund was holding her hand.

However, when it was Artemis' turn to invite her, she rejected him immediately and ended the call soon after.

Why can she accept Edmund but not me? Her cold and indifferent attitude when she's around me is hard to watch. Does being with me make her feel that uncomfortable?

“Do you like Edmund?”

Bailey frowned when she heard that weird question. After remaining silent for a few seconds, she gave him an ambiguous answer by saying, “My son calls him 'Daddy.‘”

So... whether she likes Edmund or not depends on her son?

Artemis seemed to have discerned an underlying meaning from her words. Does that mean the boy doesn't share Edmund's blood?

Bailey tried pushing the man's shoulder, but as soon as her palm felt the scorching warmth of his skin, she reflexively pulled her hand back.

It's so hot! Is this man on fire?

Her touch which didn't even last for a second immediately evoked the strong desire within Artemis that he had been struggling to contain. He clasped her wrist and pressed her palm against his chest.
