Chapter 45

He stopped in his track and looked down at the little girl whose height barely reached his waist level. “What's your mommy's name?” he asked, frowning slightly

Susan gave him a cheeky smile and replied, “My mommy's name is Bailey, while my godmother's name is Victoria. Which one are you referring to?”

Those words left Artemis dumbfounded. He trembled involuntarily, then asked hesitantly, “Zayron and you are...”

“We're twins. He's older than me by a mere twenty minutes,” the little girl shared.

I see! This world is full of surprises! What has that lucky idiot Simon done to deserve a set of twins?

He calmed himself down and brought Susan to Felicity and his family.

“Who's this girl, Artemis?”

Artemis kept quiet, and merely looked at Susan.

A big smile appeared on Susan's face as she declared, “I'm Mr. Luther's partner!”

That left everyone speechless.

From a corner of the venue, Bailey heard that child-like reply. She instantly stopped in her track and turned toward the direction where Susan's voice came from.

Her face fell when she saw the pair.

“Oh, isn't that the abandoned elder daughter of the Jefferson family? Why is she here?”
