Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis)

Chapter 942

Chapter 942 Wrapped Around His Little Finger

Upon seeing him lean in, Juliana's heart began to race uncontrollably.

Without thinking, she placed her hand on his chest. Instantly, a wave of warmth washed over her,

spreading from the palm of her hand to every corner of her body.

She was panic-stricken, ready to pull her hand away.

As a result, Zeke managed to catch her in one swoop.

Then, with a sudden press, he held her hand tightly against his chest.

“I... I need to go see Huntley, you... you let go of me. Let me go.”

Zeke had one hand around her waist and the other pressing down on her hand. Then, he leaned in

close to her ear and whispered, “Your master is there.”

“Oh no, I should call her my sister-in-law now. With her around, Huntley will be fine. You should stay

and keep me company.”

After he finished speaking, he leaned closer to her.

Juliana's eyes widened in disbelief, staring at the magnified handsome face before her.

She had been poisoned and was now weak all over. Even if she wasn't poisoned, she was no match

for this man.

And so, she found herself tightly embraced by this domineering man. Their lips passionately locked in a

kiss.

Over time, she could distinctly feel the air within her abdomen rapidly draining away.

A minute later, her legs could no longer support her, and she collapsed directly into his arms.

Zeke let her go, leaned in once more, and asked in a beguiling voice, “Where is your room?”

Juliana's heart gave a fierce tremble, stuttering, “What... what do you want to do?”

Zeke's warm breath brushed against her ear as he chuckled lightly. “What do you think I would do if I

take you home to rest?”

“Or perhaps you're expecting us to do something? If you have any requests, I'd be more than happy to

oblige.”

Juliana used her hands to press against his chest, pushing him away with all her might. Her voice was

hoarse as she said, “No, you don't need to accompany me. I... I can go up by myself.”

Zeke raised an eyebrow, a mischievous glint flashing in his eyes.

“Are you sure you don't need me to take you?”

“No need.”

“Alright then, I wash my hands of this.”

After he finished speaking, he didn't even give Juliana time to react. He immediately let go of his large

hand that was wrapped around her waist.

In the next moment, a cry of surprise echoed. Juliana, weak and feeble, plummeted straight towards

the ground.

“You jerk!”

Before she could finish her slander, an iron arm appeared around her waist once again, lifting her off

her ground in a swift horizontal sweep.

Next, a low chuckle from Zeke came from above her head.

“With your current state, even if I wanted to do something, you wouldn't be able to handle it. Where's

your room? I'll take you up to rest.”

Juliana was completely exhausted, burying her head in his chest. She pointed to the first room on the

east side of the second floor. “Over there.”

With a playful smile, Zeke lowered his head and planted a kiss on her cheek, then strolled towards the

staircase.

“Go rest in your room. I need to discuss something with your father. Once Bailey finishes the surgery,

your father can act as a witness to dissolve the master-disciple relationship between you two.”

...

Juliana wisely chose not to voice any objections.

In fact, her opposition was futile.

This man had her wrapped around his little finger. There was no escape for her now.

In fact, from the moment she saw Archie, she had made up her mind.

Since someone in the family had already taken over, she no longer needed to shoulder the burden

herself.

As she was free from shackles, she could continue to pursue what she loved, just like before.

And wasn't this man's response what she had always dreamed of?

Happiness was now within her reach, and naturally, she intended to hold onto it tightly.

...

At the same moment.

Inside the operating room of the infirmary.

Bailey looked at Huntley lying on the operating table. She nodded and said, “You've done so much for

Julie, and you were supposed to have a happy ending with her.

“But when it comes to matters of love, it's not always a given that you'll be rewarded for what you have

given. Huntley, you're really a knight, protecting the princess who once saved you.

“But the princess has her own beloved prince charming in her heart. If you truly love her, you could

try...”

Before she could finish, Huntley interrupted her with a smile, “Ms. Jefferson, I know what you're about

to say.

“Rest assured, I won't cause her any trouble. If I really wanted to trap her, I never intended to hand

over the power I held to Tucker from the beginning.

“Her happiness is what I've always hoped for.”

Bailey nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over the man's immobilized hands and feet. Deep within, a

genuine sense of admiration began to rise.

After a few seconds of silence, she slowly stepped back and gave him a bow.

“As Julie's mentor, I offer you this gesture of gratitude for your selfless protection of my apprentice. May

you have a fulfilling life in the days to come.” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Huntley to respond. She turned to the doctor beside her

and said, “Administer the anesthesia.”

“Yes.”

Huntley tugged at the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile that seemed to express a sense of relief.

His mission was accomplished.

Next, the princess who had endured hardships would return to the prince's side, relishing their reunion.

And it was time for this knight to exit the stage.

Amid a sea of white light, Huntley slowly closed his eyes.

The moment he closed his eyes, two clear teardrops of a man slid from the corners, disappearing into

his hair at the temples as quickly as a blink, leaving no trace behind.

The surgery didn't take long, it was over in just an hour.

When Bailey came out of the operating room, a few of Huntley's relatives gathered around.

“Ms. Jefferson, how is my son?” Yuri asked anxiously.

Bailey nodded and said, “The surgery went smoothly. Let him take some time to recover. Don't rush it.

He should be able to move around in about half a month.”

After she finished speaking, she ignored everyone else and walked straight to Artemis. With a crying

voice, she said, “I don't want to see Huntley's sorrowful eyes. They are heavy, painful, and helpless.

“How about we get going? Don't we still need to dissolve the master-disciple relationship between Julie

and me? Let's not linger here any longer.”

Artemis gave a light hum, holding Bailey's hand as they left the medical office.

As the two of them passed a pavilion, Bailey seemed to notice something and gradually slowed her

steps.

It seemed like she just saw someone she knew.

“Hmm, why does the silhouette in the pavilion seem so familiar to me?”

Artemis followed her gaze.

He got a shock at what he saw.

Isn't that the death row inmate who got out of the international prison a couple of days ago?

This is the arch-nemesis of Bailey.

His initial imprisonment was all thanks to Bailey.

If these two were to bump into each other, it would surely cause a huge uproar.

“You've got it wrong. Move along, and stop staring at him. Otherwise, I'll end up with one more love

rival.”
