Chapter 528
After Artemis received news that something terrible had befallen Bailey, he drove toward the Shurmer
family's medical base at once, running over twenty red lights in the process.
His crazy behavior caught the attention of the Transportation Bureau's chief.
Still, the chief didn't dare to do anything to Artemis, especially after he heard about Artemis' unstable
state from one of the traffic police. Artemis acted like an enraged bull, rendering the chief even more
afraid of provoking him at that untimely moment.
The traffic condition could be restored following a disruption, but if the chief offended the Luther family
because of an insignificant matter like that, he reckoned he might even lose his position as an official.
...
Meanwhile, at Century Grandeur, the entire venue was surrounded by reporters.
In the beginning, the security guards were still able to maintain order. However, the situation gradually
worsened as the crowd grew bigger. In the end, all hell broke loose as the security guards could only
stand by and watch as the reporters surged into the premise.
“What's going on? What happened? Did an international superstar visit Century Grandeur? Is it the
best actress, Rainie Yeanisky, or the best actor, Elliot Sawyer?”
“What are you talking about? It's Bailey Jefferson. I heard that she requested to meet with her adoptive
father, Clarence, at the restaurant, and they are carrying out some secret dealing inside.”
“I'm guessing she wants him to be a cuckold by taking her into his family since the identity of her birth
father is unknown. Once Clarence announces to the public that she's the Jefferson family's biological
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdaughter, others won't spread rumors about her being an illegitimate child anymore.”
“Even so, she shouldn't engage in that kind of activity with her adoptive father.”
“What? Don't utter such nonsense if you didn't witness it with your own eyes.”
“How can this be nonsense when there are so many reporters here? There would be no smoke without
fire. They must've done it, or possibly doing it, resulting in so many reporters being attracted to this
place.”
“Let's stop guessing. We'll know the truth once we go up and check out what's going on. We'll see if it's
really Bailey and if she's truly committing an immoral act with her adoptive father. Everything will be
clear once we go upstairs.”
“That's right. Let's go upstairs and take a look.”
Subsequently, everyone proceeded upstairs.
Zoey, wearing a pair of sunglasses, hid in the throng's periphery. She curled her seductive red lips into
a wicked smile. Bailey's life should be ruined from today onward. I don't have to worry about that b*tch
suddenly appearing and snatching my position from now on. I am the Shurmer family's daughter, and
no one else can dream of taking this title away from me.
Rhonda had arranged for her bodyguards to stand guard outside the private room on the third floor, but
they were all taken care off by Zeke's men.
As a result, those reporters were not met with any obstacles on their way up as they bolted straight
toward the room Clarence was in.
Bang!
The door was kicked open.
The hot scene taking place inside the private room entered everyone's visions. They gasped when they
clearly saw the faces of the two people inside.
“Oh my! That's not Bailey. That's Rhonda. It's the Jefferson family's second daughter, Rhonda. She's
Clarence's biological daughter.”
“Holy sh*t! What the hell? How did this happen? A-Aren't they related by blood?”
“Who spread the rumor about Bailey being here? It's clearly Clarence and Rhonda who are twisted
enough to be doing something like this... Fine. This is something beyond the comprehension of my
worldview. If I hadn't felt pain when I pinched myself, I would've thought I was caught up in the abode of
the d*mned. I suppose something as sinful as this can only happen in the underworld.”
“Can someone go and separate them? They'll be struck by lightning if this continues. Stop watching
and stop them.”
“We didn't force them to do this, so why is it our responsibility to stop them? Besides, they are willingly
doing this, so why should we halt them? Of course, most importantly, we'll be tainting our hands if we
touch them.”
Some murmured in agreement while others kept silent.
...
The news about Rhonda, instead of Bailey, who was doing unspeakable things with Clarence inside the
private room, spread to every corner of Century Grandeur in no time.
Those gossipy bystanders who were stuck outside were utterly flabbergasted upon hearing that. A look
of utter disbelief spread across their faces.
Their astonishment was completely justifiable. They could still accept the news if it were Bailey since
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe was not related to Clarence by blood.
However, Rhonda being the girl inside the private room was entirely unacceptable to them.
Zoey staggered a few steps backward and gritted her teeth so hard that a crunching noise could be
heard coming from her jaw. They are useless! They fail to accomplish something as simple as this.
She didn't need to guess further to know that Clarence and Rhonda, the incompetent father and
daughter, had fallen into Bailey's trap. They deserve this outcome. I can't believe they think they can
target Bailey with their stupidity. They are nothing but fools.
“Ms. Shurmer, Mr. Zeke secretly left Century Grandeur ten minutes ago while carrying Bailey, who was
covered in blood,” Zoey's bodyguard whispered beside her ear.
She turned around and narrowed her eyes at him. “Covered in blood? Is she injured?”
“The lower half of her body was bleeding. I'm guessing she suffered a miscarriage.”
Zoey was briefly stunned. “Didn't she have a miscarriage not long ago? Why... I got it. She deliberately
announced to everyone that she suffered a spontaneous abortion. In fact, the fetus is still developing
well in her womb. The damage is probably too significant this time. She won't be able to keep the baby
even if she wants to.”
“That's right. I think so too. Judging by the degree of her bleeding, I don't think she can keep the baby.”
Zoey was thrilled. “This is wonderful. Although the useless father and daughter from the Jefferson
family couldn't entirely ruin Bailey's life, they successfully caused her to have a taste of the agonizing
experience of a miscarriage. This is not bad too. Where did my brother bring Bailey to?”
“The Shurmer family's medical base.”
“Arrange for someone to follow them. I want an update on the status of Bailey's baby as soon as
possible.”
