Chapter 220

After watching Bailey enter the living room, Artemis struggled to get up and head to the bathroom.

A moment later, Bailey came back out of the master bedroom, properly dressed.

Well, she had no choice. There was a beast in the house, and she dared not walk around in a spaghetti-strapped nightgown like Susan. If she did that, she would essentially be offering herself up to a certain man.

When she entered the living room, she found no one on the couch. Her eyes then flited toward the bathroom, where the sounds of running water were coming from.

Just as she was about to walk over to ask him what he wanted for breakfast, a ringtone of a phone traveled into her ears.

It was Artemis' phone.

A while of hesitation later, she walked over to pick up the phone.

When she lowered her eyes and looked at the screen, she was greeted by the name “Zoey.”

Instinctively, Bailey raised a brow.

The contacts that Artemis saved on his phone were all important people.

Thus, she wondered, A confidante?

An evil plan formed in her head. She turned around to glance at the bathroom before walking over to the balcony. Then, she answered the call.

Before she could say anything, a crystalline clear voice of a woman traveled out of the speaker. “Artemis, what are you doing? I'm thinking of coming back to Hallsbay in a few days' time. As usual, I'll stay in your seaside mansion when I'm there.”

Bailey was speechless upon hearing that.

Are they that close to each other? It sounds like she's a frequent guest in Artemis' private mansion. Is she Artemis' first crush?

Just then, the door to the bathroom opened with a clink. When Bailey turned to look in his direction, she was taken aback.
