Chapter 354

Simon: Artemis, I've explained everything to Granddad, and he has calmed down. Hence, you don't have to rush over to the Chivers residence. Now that you owe me one, this will offset what I did seven years ago. Therefore, you're not allowed to hold it against me anymore.

Intrigued by Artemis' sudden smile, Bailey inquired, “What is it?”

Artemis showed her the message instead of replying.

Upon reading it, Bailey was equally delighted. “Back then, in my desperation to raise money to save Granny, I had no choice but to agree to Rhonda's condition and sleep with an old man. I was surprised when the “old man” turned out to be you. So it was Simon's doing all along. Anyway, message him to tell him that I'm eternally grateful for what he has done. From now on, I have his back wherever he goes.”

Artemis was elated to hear her words.

Is she expressing her gratitude to Simon for sending her my way? Hmm, I have to admit that I need to thank him too.

“All right.”

After replying to Simon's message with what Bailey said, Artemis turned off his phone.

Subsequently, a smile descended upon Bailey's face, as she knew exactly what was on his mind. Cognizant that there was no escape, she threw her arms around his neck and took the initiative instead.

The night had just begun and so did their story.

Back in Shelbert Condominium, the two boys were sitting on the sofa, sighing.

“Alas, it looks like she has been taken.”

“That's a fact since seven years ago. There's no point in complaining about it now.”

As the smiling Susan joined them, she commented, “Maxton, Zayron, I don't want to be the youngest. I prefer to have a younger sibling instead.”

Exchanging glances, the boys gave their adorable sister a look before slapping their thighs in unison.

“Fine, I'll make your wish come true.”

“Okay, I'll think of a way to get Mommy pregnant again.”

After mulling over the matter, the brothers shared a glance and spotted the cunning glint that flashed across each other's eyes.

Zayron remarked, “Given how desperate they are for each other, I'm sure they didn't use any protection. Thus, Bailey will definitely take the morning-after pill tomorrow. Hehe... I'll leave this matter to you.”

Maxton patted his chest. “Don't worry, I'll get it done. Bay will not be swallowing that pill tomorrow, I promise.”

As the brothers burst into devious laughter, Susan clapped her hands in delight.

“Hurray! I'll have a younger sibling soon!”
