Chapter 3

“Artemis! Max's crazy!” Rhonda screamed.

Her complaint irked Artemis, and his face gloomed.

The truth was, Artemis understood why his child found that woman repulsive. Maxton was a sensitive child, so he must know how Rhonda felt about him just from her casual remarks.

The fact that Rhonda accused him of being crazy was enough to prove that she did not love that boy at all.

Six years was enough for Artemis to see Rhonda's true colors.

If it were not for Maxton, Artemis would have chased that woman out of the house.

“Maxton, stop it. Go back to bed,” Artemis finally interrupted, but the child glared at him when he heard that.

“Only if she stays,” he retorted, but when both Maxton and Artemis turned around, Bailey was already nowhere to be seen.

Did she run away?

Maxton glowered at his father and continued, “You're useless. You can't even keep an eye on her.”

Artemis was rendered speechless.

When Rhonda saw that Maxton had finally calmed down, she pulled him back into her arms and held him despite how the boy struggled to break free. “Max, that person's my older sister, your aunt. She got pregnant out of wedlock, so Granddad chased her out of the family. It would be best if you stay away from her. She's a bad influence on you.”

“You don't have to tell him that,” Artemis reprimanded.

Maxton scoffed as well. You're a bad woman. You've finally shown your true colors. I knew from the start that you're not my mommy. Other mothers look at their children lovingly, but I can only see greed in your eyes when you look at me. I will find my real mommy one day and reveal your true identity.

Over in a fifth-floor suite in Shelbert Condominium, Bailey shouted in anger when she beheld the mess in the house. “Zayron! Come here right this instant!”
