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 daughter, 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 she 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.”
