Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 163

Meanwhile, at Shelbert Condominium, Bailey was leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window as she talked on the phone.

It was a call from Edmund.

“I heard that you've made two requests from Artemis, asking him to pass the word to Aunt Felicity. Bay, Aunt Felicity has a strong sense of ego. She will choose neither of your choices. Given her personality, it's more likely that she will insist on Cadence doing the operation,” Edmund said.

Bailey smiled and replied, “I know. That old woman loathes me. She will never come and apologize to me. I just asked Artemis to pass the word to annoy her. I'm not a saint, nor a naive girl. There is no way I'm putting up with that rotten attitude of hers.”

Edmund sighed. “Then what about my grandpa's surgery?”

“Don't worry. Old Mr. Chivers' treatment plan is ready. He can undergo the surgery at any time. I've been forcing myself to move on from my past trauma. Your aunt's taunts will not make me change my mind. I am indebted to your family, after all. I've only put out the two options to irritate her.”

Edmund chuckled and said apologetically, “I'm sorry. I misunderstood your intention. I should have known better.”

“It's all right,” Bailey smiled. “You're just worried about your grandpa and afraid that I'm delaying his surgery on purpose for my own grudges. You cannot be blamed for thinking that way. Please rest assured that I will be true to my promise and carry on with Old Mr. Chivers' surgery. It is what I should do.”

“I know. Sorry for being such a—”

Before Edmund could finish, someone knocked on her door. A little head popped in from the opening of the door and said, “Bay, the matriarch of the Luther family has arrived. She's yelling outside the entrance.”

Bailey was stumped. Then, she narrowed her eyes at the little girl and furrowed her brows as she asked, “Are you certain?”

“Yes, I'm certain. I saw her through the peephole. She looked like she was about to devour someone.”

“Really?” Bailey lifted a brow and spoke on the phone. “Your Aunt Felicity is here. I believe we are due for an argument, and I think you should call Artemis and ask him to come here. I'm afraid that Mrs. Luther will faint from the argument, and I will be forced to send her to the hospital.”
