Chapter 511

A moment later, Shirley replied: Wait for the right time to use your mother to get rid of Bailey. Try to get rid of her once and for all so she doesn't get a chance to make a comeback ever again.

The smile on Scarlett's lips widened.

She must get rid of Bailey Jefferson.

Veronique had been diagnosed with uterine cancer, and she could only stay alive with Bailey's help. In other words, if Bailey was out of the picture, Veronique was dead meat too.

Scarlett: Okay. You're doing this to get Zeke, and I'm doing this to get Justin. It's a beneficial situation for both of us. Regardless of everything, Bailey has to die.

In the living room, Raiden was sitting in the main seat, looking at Artemis with an arched brow and a half-smile. “Why have you come here instead of watching over your woman at home?”

Artemis gave him an icy look and uttered, “The news outside has affected Bailey's mood. When are you going to scram back to Dellmoor? Also, when are you going to get engaged with a woman so that people will stop thinking that you're in a relationship with Bailey?”

Raiden slowly dropped the smile, and a dangerous glint flashed past his eyes. “Artemis, don't push your luck. I'm already kind by not competing against you for Bailey. I hope you'll stop provoking me.”

“Is that so?” Artemis sneered. “It's pointless even if you try to steal her away from me because you don't have a place in her heart.”

Raiden knitted his brows. “Artemis, you'd better stop taunting me. My love for Bailey is no lesser than yours. If you trigger my indignance, I'll fight you to the death for her.”

Artemis scoffed before expressionlessly uttering, “Bailey has nothing to do with you. If you keep staying in Hallsbay, the people will only keep assuming that something is going on between the two of you. Isn't Mrs. Fletcher trying to find a woman for you? Get someone suitable and marry her as soon as you can. Stop making life difficult for me and Bailey.”

Raiden barked out a laugh in his anger. “Artemis, would you still settle for anyone after meeting Bailey?”

Artemis' expression tensed up. It was a question he did not wish to answer, but he had to. “No.”

“That's right. You won't, and I won't either. I believe Edmund won't too. So, stop telling me to marry another woman. I just can't.”
