Chapter 257

Even though it was fake, Zoey still felt uncomfortable when she heard it. The sooner I reveal the truth about the marriage certificate, the better. I'm the only one who deserves to be Mrs. Luther. No other woman deserves that title.

Meanwhile, Bailey was typing in the lead designer office inside Luther Group's headquarters.

The words “Resignation Letter” were boldly seen on the screen. She had decided to leave Hallsbay once the new batch of medicine entered the market.

After being at a loss for so long, I've finally made a choice that seems right to me. Old Mr. Chivers is right. Even if I don't think about myself, I should still consider Zayron and Susan. They are still young, and they deserve to have a worry-free life. They shouldn't be stuck in a life where their perspective on the world is constantly twisted by rumors and gossip. Artemis... I guess this name will forever only be a dream of mine in Hallsbay, however alluring he may be. Even if I'm understanding him gradually, I must still keep my distance from him.

Right then, the door to her office opened, and she caught sight of Artemis walking in. She quickly moved her mouse and closed the file. I can't let him know about this for now. Otherwise, I won't be able to leave.

“Do you need something?” Bailey asked, raising her head.

Silently, Artemis walked toward the office table, propped himself up with his hands, and raised his eyebrows. “I heard you delegated some of your most important tasks to Stephen. Is your body unable to handle the stress?”

Bailey was stunned. I didn't expect him to be this sensitive. Nothing can be hidden from him, huh?

“Yeah. The new batch of medicine produced by Dyke Pharmaceutical should be completed in a few days. So, I need to be on top of my game to deal with it. Since I won't be able to take care of company matters well, I thought I might as well let Stephen handle it. He's the director of the design department, so logically, he should share my burden.”

“Is that so?” Artemis smiled as he fixed his dark eyes on hers.

The look in his eyes was intense as though he was trying to see through her. Even though Bailey's willpower was strong, it was still slightly unbearable to her. This man's observation skills are too powerful. It'll rouse his suspicions if I act oddly, even just a little bit.

“Did my granddad tell you anything in the past few days, Bay?”

Bailey replied, “He did. He's still thinking about my marriage to Edmund. So, whenever I went to the Chivers residence, he would ask me about it. He said I was the one who saved his life, so I had to give him a reason to keep living. For the moment, watching Edmund getting married and having a child is the most meaningful thing to him.”
