Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 405

The Hoffman family was the biggest and most mysterious family in Adrune and had ruled over Epea for

centuries. Once Juliana wielded real power, she would be one of the most powerful people in the world.

Thus, Bailey approved of her return.

Her years of experience taught her one thing—only those in power were able to protect their loved

ones and do whatever they wanted.

The doorbell rang right when Bailey sent a message to Juliana.

It was a curt text: Have a safe trip.

After the message was sent, she tossed her phone onto the coffee table and went to the doorway to

open the door.

“Bailey, you lied to me!”

The sight of her sister-in-law at the door caused Bailey to massage her brows in exasperation.

Ugh, I'm going to have a headache. I've just sent one away, and another one is here.

“When did I lie to you?”

“You promised to get me Legendary Racer's autograph, but she didn't even come to Hallsbay, let alone

join the competition!”

Bailey let out a helpless sigh. “How do you know she's not at Hallsbay? Not joining the competition

doesn't mean she's not here, get it?”

Caridee blinked. “Is she here? You're not lying to me, right?”

Feeling amused, Bailey slapped her head. “I promise you'll get Adhira's autograph that day.”

Caridee sighed in relief and took Bailey's arm. Beaming, she said, “Bailey, you're the best!”

Right after she spoke, footsteps sounded in the corridor outside.

They both looked up.

Caridee bore a lovestruck expression when she got a clear look at the person.

“Oh, he's so handsome. I-Is he coming toward us?”

Bailey glanced at her before turning to look at Veikko. Oh, no. Caridee is a pampered socialite, so she

cannot resist someone as handsome as Veikko. That's precisely why handsome young men are

popular in the entertainment industry. Girls just swoon at the sight of them.

Veikko's black outfit made him look more handsome than ever.

He also looked manly as he received vigorous training all year long.

Did Caridee fall in love with him at first sight? Please don't... If he steals her heart, Ratemis will kill me!

One was a malicious young assassin who reeked of blood, and the other was a sheltered young lady

who grew up without any worries.

If sparks flew between them, they would end up being on parallel lines that would never intersect with

each other.

“Maxton, Zayron, your Aunt Caridee is here. Bring her to the study now.”

Caridee rolled her eyes in exasperation. “I have only taken one look at your lackey. Why are you so

nervous? I wasn't planning on seducing him.”

After she said that, a shocking thought popped up in her mind. Her eyes widened incredulously as she

asked, “B-Bailey, don't tell me you have a kept man without Artemis' knowledge... Mmph...”

Bailey hurriedly covered her mouth and declared, “Stop talking nonsense. If your brother hears this,

he'll kill me!”

Caridee blinked before reaching out to pry her hand off. “It turns out you're scared of Artemis, huh?”

Bailey was speechless.

Yes, I'm afraid of Artemis. In fact, I'm terrified of him. I'm scared he'll pin me in bed and force me to stay

there for seven days in a row.

She wasn't exaggerating, for Artemis was perfectly capable of doing that.

“Who is he, Bailey? If you refuse to tell me who he is, I'll tell Artemis you have a kept man.”

Bailey shot her a glare.

I knew it. The Luthers may look innocent, but they are full of tricks.

“My sworn brother. Don't talk nonsense,” she warned.

“What is his name?” Caridee asked.

“Veikko.”

Oh, Veikko. Caridee blinked twice. What a nice name. I like it.

Bailey pushed her into the living room and slammed the door shut.

“Why did you come?”

Veikko glanced at her and asked, “I heard Dexter isn't coming back and wants you to join the

competition on his behalf. Is that right?”

“Yes, he can't make it back in time and asked me to compete on his behalf. Why don't you do that

instead?”

Bailey didn't want to steal the limelight, anyway.

Hearing that, Veikko spun on his heels and left. “I'm not used to people staring at me like I'm a monkey

in the zoo.”

Bloody hell! He's insulting me indirectly!

“By the way, what about the thing I told you to investigate? What did you find?”

“The Hoffman family is currently at Sunny Resort in the south of the city. Sebastian is locked up there,

too. However, you shouldn't act recklessly. The resort is the Hoffman family's base, so it is heavily

guarded. If you were to go alone, you might be able to come and go as you like, but it will be hard to

escape since you have to take Sebastian with you.”

Bailey narrowed her eyes at his words.

Hopefully, Juliana's return can allow Sebastian to come back safely.

Alas, she was bound to be disappointed. After all, she didn't know that Sebastian's biological father,

Holden, had unfinished business with the Hoffman family.

...

Juliana alighted from her car when they arrived at Sunny Resort.

At once, dozens of bodyguards clad in black outfits formed two lines and greeted her, “Ms. Juliana.”

Juliana's lips curved when she saw the grand welcome.

This is just the beginning. Once I gain full control of the Hoffman family, all forces in Adrune will have to

bow at my feet.

Raymond came down the stairs and chuckled. “You keep your promise by showing up in three days.”

Juliana blinked and raised her brow. “I have no choice as my nephew is with you, Mr. Raymond. Now

that I'm here as promised, can you release Sebastian?”

Raymond gave a dismissive wave. “There's no hurry. He's part of the Hoffman family, and I'd like to

spend more time with him. I'll ask someone to send him home when we leave.”

Juliana sneered inwardly.

As she expected Raymond not to release Sebastian that easily, she wasn't that disappointed at his

response.

“All right. We'll do it your way. Where is Sebastian? I'll go take a look at him.”

Since she agreed without kicking up a fuss, Raymond didn't make things difficult for her. He ordered a

maid,” Bring Ms. Juliana to the guest room so she can see Mr. Sebastian.”

“Yes.”

After watching them leave, the middle-aged man beside Raymond asked, “Holden didn't take action

after receiving the finger. Was my prediction wrong?”

Raymond snorted icily. “They are placing their hopes on Juliana and won't take action.”

“What should we do?”

“Make sure Juliana doesn't get to contact the outside world. That way, they will panic and fight with

each other. Also, tighten the security on the bast*rd. We don't want to let Juliana take advantage of the

situation to save him.”

“Got it.”

...

The Shurmer residence was rather lively and noisy.

Zoey got her phone and left the living room.

She came to a stop in a gazebo in the garden and glanced at the bodyguard in black who summoned

her. Frowning, she asked, “What is it?”

“Ms. Zoey, I just received a tipoff from a friend who works for the racing association. It is related to

Bailey.”
