Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 655 Juliana Is Poisoned
Bailey chuckled.
“Ms. Sullivan, one has to be sincere and polite when negotiating. I'm afraid this deal is going nowhere when you demanded my
dead body right off the bat.”
In a low voice, Yvette muttered, “You have a problem with that? Do you really think I won't kill them? You shouldn't be too
confident, or you will suffer dire consequences.”
The grin on Bailey's face widened while a hint of ridicule was audible in her tone. “Will you gain anything from killing them? I
don't think so. I doubt you would do such a meaningless thing, right, Ms. Sullivan? If you would, it only means I have
overestimated you.”
The sound of Yvette gritting her teeth in exasperation came from the other end of the line.
She probably didn't expect Bailey to behave so arrogantly under such circumstances.
Why? I have her weakness tightly in my grasp. Isn't she supposed to humble herself and beg me? Who does she think she is?
How dare she behave so condescendingly?
“Bailey, you'd better not be so arrogant. All I have to do is issue an order to get them both killed.”
Bailey couldn't help snickering.
Was I being too arrogant? I'm merely stating the facts.
“I know you can kill them since they're currently in your hands. I'm not doubting your capabilities. I'm just trying to say that killing
them now won't benefit you in any way. All right, that's enough. Let's stop beating around the bush. You know that it's impossible
for me to hand myself over to you on a silver platter, and I'm aware you won't kill them just like that, too. After all, they are your
only bargaining chip for now. Let's talk it out like grown-ups and come up with a solution that we both could accept.”
“All right. Since you said so, I will cut to the chase. Come alone to the abandoned factory in the eastern suburbs fifty miles away
from the city three days later. Then, I will let them go. However, if you don't show up or bring a group of people with you, mark my
words, I will show no mercy and kill them immediately.”

Bailey agreed right away without an ounce of hesitation. “Okay, it's a deal then. I will show up alone, and then you let Justin and
Veronique go. Whether you succeed in killing me or not depends on what you've got.”
After ending the call, Bailey met the gazes of Zeke and Edmund which were filled with disapproval. Chuckling, she said, “Don't
look at me like that. No matter what danger lies ahead, I'm doing it no matter what.”
Frowning, Edmund exclaimed, “I can't believe you have the guts to go there alone. Do you not care about your own safety?”
Slightly amused by his remark, Bailey glanced at him solemnly and said firmly, “Edmund, you're too nervous. Relax, for I'll be
okay. I wouldn't have agreed to go if I'm not confident enough. Do you really think I don't care about my life at all? I cherish my
life now that I have children and someone I love.”
Edmund snorted faintly. “Why are you still acting tough since you cherish your life? Will it kill you to bring one more person with
you? I figure that woman would probably allow it since one more person can't stir up much trouble.”
Bailey was amused by his words.
Is he complaining because I didn't ask Yvette if I could bring him along?
“Edmund, it's too dangerous. I don't want you to endanger yourself. You—”
Edmund leaped up from the couch before she could finish talking.
“I've already made up my mind, so you don't have to try dissuading me. Call that woman again later and tell her you're bringing
another person with you to save Justin and Veronique. I will go with you.”
Bailey pouted, irritated.
He is becoming more and more domineering. The Edmund I used to know wasn't like this. He used to be gentle, humble, polite,
and never as overbearing as he is now.
Zeke tried to relieve the tension by saying, “I think that's better, Bay. Call Yvette again and convince her to let Edmund go with
you. After all, someone has to be there to collect Justin and Veronique. Isn't that so?”
Bailey rolled her eyes in response.
Look at them singing the same tune. How ridiculous.

“Fine, whatever you say. But I think you two are worrying over nothing because I trust that Artemis will arrange everything well.
He won't let me put myself in danger.”
Edmund scoffed. “I can't believe you still trust him when he's with another woman. Is this what you call beauty lies in the eyes of
the beholder? Everything about him is perfect in your eyes, and all the other men who are in love with you are unlucky.”
Livid, Bailey glared at him and roared, “Why are you getting mad at me? I know you are displeased with Artemis. Since you're
mad at him, why don't you take it out on him? Can you even call yourself a man after raising your voice at a lady?”
A wry and helpless smile appeared on Zeke's face.
Nevertheless, he was very grateful toward Edmund and Raiden for giving their all to protect his little sister.
Bay is so lucky to be adored by some of the most outstanding men in the world. Although she might be burdened by the love
they shower on her, no one can ever explain the complexities of love. Perhaps falling in love with Bay is a blissful thing to
Edmund and Raiden. Even though their love isn't reciprocated, they still hope to protect her from the bottom of their hearts.
Meanwhile, in the dungeon of the Hoffman residence, a shrill scream sounded and broke the silence of the night.
“This is bad! Ms. Juliana is poisoned! Get the doctor over and inform Mr. Raymond immediately!”
In an instant, the entire castle descended into a state of chaos.
After half an hour, Juliana was pushed into the infirmary for emergency treatment while many people gathered outside.
Wearing an ashen expression, Raymond glared at the dungeon guard, who was kneeling on the ground, and raged, “Why did
you poison Juliana's food? Who ordered you to do that? Spill it!”
Hanging his head, the guard replied calmly, “No one told me to do so. I did it of my own accord. Do you still remember how my
parents died, Mr. Raymond? They died in your hands. Who else could I hurt except your daughter to get my revenge? You? I can
never kill you.”
After saying that, he suddenly stuffed the pill between his fingers into his mouth when no one was watching.
Raymond hastily shouted orders, “Stop him!”

However, before the bodyguards at the side could step forward, the guard coughed up a mouthful of blood and stopped
breathing.
“Mr. Raymond, there's no saving him. The poisonous pill has melted in his mouth.”
Fixing his gaze on the guard's dead body for a brief moment, Raymond lifted his head and stared at Philip and Tucker. His gaze
was so piercing it was as if he could see through them.
Frowning slightly, Philip met Raymond's gaze and said in a low voice, “Mr. Raymond, what is the meaning of this? Why are you
looking at us? Do you think we're the ones who poisoned Juliana?”
Flashing a cold smile, Raymond said nonchalantly, “You'd better pray that she and the child in her belly will be fine. Otherwise,
the Hoffman family will face disasters like never before. By then, the family will fall apart, and your son Tucker will lose his right of
inheritance, too.”
