Chapter 124

Zayron whipped his head aside, still puckering his lips.

“I don't understand what you're talking about. What organization? You make it sound like it's some underground operation. Do you think a kid like me would know anything about stuff like that?”

Artemis narrowed his eyes and pondered until he finally laughed. “You're right. You're just a kid. There's no way you'd know anything about that. I must have made a mistake. I'm sorry.”

Zayron tugged his lips at the man.

I can't believe someone can be this cunning. I finally understand why people say he's a sly fox. He definitely is one.

Artemis gave the boy back his explosive and reminded him, “Try not to use something so dangerous next time. You might end up blowing yourself up.”

He's even got a serpent's tongue!

Unlike his brother, Susan was delighted to see Artemis. She came out from behind Zayron and smiled at the man. “Hi, boss. It's nice to see you again.”

Artemis' expression softened when he saw the girl.

She had always managed to touch the most tender spot in his heart.

Artemis picked her up and brought her into the house.

“You're a good girl, Susan. I'll bring you to your great-granddad. I'm sure you would want him to be around longer so you can grow up with him around.”

Susan blinked her eyes at Artemis knowingly.

Maxton had told her the night before that Glen refused to be operated on, and no one was able to change his mind, so Artemis was hinting that the girl should try persuading the old man, but Susan knew this was not within her ability.

If Glen agreed to undergo surgery, the Luthers would force Veronique to tell them who Anonymous was.

The last thing the girl wanted was to make things difficult for Bailey.

Although Glen was her great-granddad, Bailey was still the most important person to her. No one could take precedence over Bailey in the girl's heart.

“I can talk to Great-granddad about it, but is there even anyone who can operate on him? If no one can do it, there's no point even if he agrees to do it. Won't Great-granddad be sad?”

Artemis was startled. He looked down, only to see the girl's small and cute features.
