Chapter 330

Before Artemis could say anything, Bailey went on, “I know the words I'm about to say will hurt you, but I'm still going to say it. The world has labeled me as your brother's property. Everyone knows I gave birth to two children to Simon. They don't care how in love you and I are and will only believe we're straddling the bottom line of morality. Let's give in to fate, Artemis. At least, for the sake of the children.”

Artemis sighed before he rolled over to the side and reached for the quilt. He pulled it over them and put his arm around her waist, enveloping her in his embrace.

Justin was staring at Raiden, who was sitting across from him. “I'm truly sorry about the engagement between our families. I will definitely marry Lettie if I don't have a child outside, but—”

Raiden raised his hand and stopped Justin. “I understand your intention. It looks like Bailey has already met you. Fine, then. The Fletcher family won't force you. Take a trip to Jadeborough and explain to my father personally. I agree with you two breaking off the engagement.”

Justin hesitated briefly before he asked tentatively, “How are you planning to break the news to Scarlett?”
