Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 297

Shirley reached out and rubbed the girl's head. Then, she smiled and said, “Going out with an

international child star is so tiring. First, I had to ensure your safety, and now I have to protect you from

the reporters.”

The little girl pouted and scoffed, “It's all Susan's fault. What's wrong with holding the Oscars in

Anglandur? She just had to use Luther Group's influence to move the Oscars to Hallsbay, huh? Hmph!

So what if she has the head of Luther Group as her uncle? Uncivilized and a showoff. She's just a gold

digger at best.”

Shirley looked at her niece in amusement and advised, “Arethea, don't belittle yourself. The daughter of

the Gourd family is just as great as the daughter of the Luther family. Besides, you'll soon have the

head of the Shurmer family as an uncle. Come on. Be confident. You're as great as any princess in the

world.”

Arethea Gourd's heart fluttered with joy. “That's true. This year's Best Child Actor Award belongs to me.

I will not allow Susan to have it.”

Shirley put her finger at her lips and gestured for her to be quiet. “There's a large group of reporters

coming. If you don't want to expose your whereabouts, stop talking.”

The two passed through the hall, and two men in black approached them when they reached the stairs

outside.

“Excuse me, are you Ms. Gourd?”

“Yes, I am.”

“Mr. Shurmer sent us to pick you up. He's at the open-air parking lot opposite this place. He thought

that you needed to lie low, so he didn't come to greet you in person. Ms. Gourd, this way.”

“Okay.”

The two followed the bodyguards to the parking lot and saw Zeke leaning against the car window from

a distance.

He was wearing a white suit, and he looked gentle in it.

Shirley was stuck in a daze staring at him.

Arethea was amused and giggled. “You're swooning again.”

Then, she quickly ran toward Zeke, shouting, “Uncle Zeke!”

Zeke furrowed his brows a little and instinctively leaned over to hug her. Then, he smiled and said,

“Arethea, you've become even more beautiful, as expected from a famous international child star. But

can we change the way you address me? From now on, call me Mr. Shurmer. It sounds cooler.”

“No,” Arethea refused. “You're my uncle since you'll be marrying my aunt. I won't change the way I call

you.”

Shirley walked over from afar with a smile. “Arethea is right. She will address you as her uncle sooner

or later. You should get used to it earlier.”

An inexplicable look flashed in Zeke's eyes. He nodded and said, “Great job for making it this far. Let's

go back to the Shurmer residence.”

“Okay.”

After getting in the car, Arethea refused to come out of Zeke's arms.

“Uncle Zeke, I'm here to compete for the Best Child Actor Award at the Oscars.”

Zeke smiled and replied gently, “You're so amazing. You'll definitely win the award.”

Shirley heard and interjected, “Zeke, I'm counting on you for Arethea's award.”

As a clever man, Zeke understood what she meant.

She wanted him to pull some strings for Arethea.

“Leave it to me. I'll send the people at the Oscars my regards.”

Two days later, at the coffee shop on the second floor of Century Square.

Bailey sat by the window, smiling at Raiden in front of her. “Mr. Fletcher, I'm sorry for taking up your

precious time. There is an urgent matter, and I need the Fletcher family to make a statement, so I had

no choice but to look for you.”

It was the first time that Raiden met Bailey. Seeing the graceful woman in front of him gave him a new

understanding of the opposite gender.

Over the years, he had met countless women of all kinds, and every one of them was nervous when

they saw him.

However, Bailey looked at him with frivolity and a half-smile, ignoring the fact that he was a general

with a huge army under his command.

How interesting.

“Speak your mind. Spare the formalities. You don't seem like a person who sticks to etiquette.”

Bailey laughed, took out a stack of documents from her bag, and slammed them on the table. “Mr.

Fletcher, take a look at what your sister did. I think you need to know.”

Raiden gulped.

After reading the contents thoroughly, his handsome face turned grim.

Before he could speak, Bailey said, “Your sister has been hiring assassins, belittling human lives. Mr.

Fletcher, these are two living people. Even with your mighty influence, I doubt you'll be able to handle

something this big.”

Raiden narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, “Where did you get this information? Joran

contacted the Saviors, and they wouldn't have revealed their employer's identity. How did you get...”

As he spoke, he seemed to have realized something. He narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth. “Ms.

Jefferson, are you one of the Saviors?”

Bailey raised her eyebrows and smiled. “It doesn't matter whether I'm a part of the Saviors or not. What

matters is that I have evidence that the heiress of the Fletcher family is hiring assassins. Don't even

think of silencing me. I won't be killed so easily. Now, how should we deal with this?”

Raiden gradually restrained his hostility and gave Bailey a thumbs up. “Ms. Jefferson, you're an

extraordinary person. You're Snowflake, Anonymous, the owner of Emmy Boutique behind the scenes,

and now, you even have connections with the Saviors. I wonder if the world's top hacker, Spook, has

anything to do with you.”

Bailey smirked. “Perhaps that could also be me. I heard that Spook hacked the database of a research

institute in Jadeborough, and the cyberspace administration department is investigating the true identity

of Spook all over the world. Mr. Fletcher, I suggest that you stop wasting your efforts. You should know

the importance of researching and developing the 5G network in the country. As long as you try to stop

me from participating in the International Programming Competition, the Fletcher family will have to

suffer this undisclosable loss.”

Raiden let out an angry snort.

This woman really knows how to annoy people, but no one can stand in her way.

“I promise not to let anything similar happen again in the future. She almost made a huge mistake by

acting on her own. I apologize on her behalf.”

Then, he briefly explained his plan to her.

After listening to his plans, Bailey retracted her mocking smile slightly. “Since Ms. Fletcher wasn't

sincere about donating her bone marrow, there's no need for my friend to wait. Okay. Then get the

sperm from Justin's body. After this, as long as Scarlett doesn't provoke Veronique, I promise

Veronique will not hinder her marriage with Justin.”

Raiden breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the documents on the table with his eyebrows lifted. “So,

about these...”

Bailey raised her eyebrows and smiled. “As long as you don't reveal the identity of Spook, I will keep

this secret for the Fletcher family. Of course, the evidence of hiring assassins must be kept with me for

the time being. I will give it to you once everything is over.”

Meanwhile, Victoria was in the CEO's office of Saunders Group.

Since Lionel joined the company as the largest shareholder, Victoria had given him the office.

Looking at Lionel sitting at the desk, Victoria sighed softly.

She longed to be by his side, even if it meant dirtying her hands.

“I'll agree to your conditions, but please let my father off.”
