Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 78

This is insane. A girl is playing the CEO.

Artemis glanced over at Dwayne coldly until the assistant evaded his gaze in fright before looking at the young woman who was clinging to him.

Although Artemis did not find her repulsive, he did not see her as a woman at all. To him, he was just like a girl next door.

“Are you even past your legal age? You're no adult. Besides, I'm a famous entrepreneur. What will the public say if they find out that I've been sleeping with a minor?” Artemis questioned.

What?

Juliana stared at him in horror.

Why do I feel like he's just like my mentor?

The truth was that Juliana once offered herself to Bailey when she saw how hard it was for Bailey to hold herself back. Back then, Juliana ran up to her and said, “Come, I can satisfy you. I will endure whatever it is.”

Yet Bailey answered, “Are you even a legal adult? Shut up if you're not. I'm a woman of principle. I'll never sleep with minors.”

So, when Juliana heard that Artemis was speaking something similar, she could not help but feel like Bailey had possessed that man.

Seeing how disturbed Juliana was, Artemis pushed her aside and said lightly, “I don't think you see me as a man, neither do you look like those materialistic women out there who just sleep around out of greed, so just cut that out. It's not going to work on me. Tell me what you want. I'll do my best to meet your terms.”

Juliana coughed dryly and pouted. “What a failure. I was thinking about sleeping with you, but you said I didn't see you as a man. I take that as an insult. Am I that unattractive? I can't believe you turned me down just like my mentor did.”

Artemis held his head in resignation. It's such a chore talking to kids. I thought the mysterious designer would have an apprentice who was cold and detached, but it turns out she's just a clueless child.

“I appreciate your forthrightness. You stand out among other young people, so there's no need for you to wallow in inferiority. How about we get down to business? What is Snowflake's intention of sending you to Hallsbay instead of coming in person?”

Juliana shook away the playful look and gazed at Artemis in all seriousness. “She wants to sue Ms. Bailey. Plagiarism is no small issue. I understand that you want to preserve the reputation of Luther Group, but it's not right to copy someone else's design. Since Ms. Bailey had the audacity to do that, we will see her in court.”

Artemis frowned. “So, this is what your mentor wants?”

“Of course. She wouldn't have asked me to represent her if she didn't want to settle this legally.”

“Does this mean you have full rein on how this matter is resolved?” Artemis asked.

Juliana fell back a few steps, looking at the man warily. “What do you want to do? Kill me? I'm the eldest daughter of a royal family in Adrune, so you'd better be careful. Your family might be influential in Hallsbay, but you still won't get away with killing royalty.”

Artemis' face twitched at the accusation. Do I look that evil?

“Ms. Stone, you're very imaginative. I only considered offering you the money you need for the next ten years. We can be friends if you give up the court case. You can still come to me if you need any favors. I'll do everything within my capacity to help.”

Juliana narrowed her eyes.

Hm. Why do I feel there's more to this than saving his own company? He cares too much about my mentor, though. Don't tell me he's fallen for her!

“Mr. Luther,” Juliana called out, “it seems to me like you care deeply for Ms. Bailey. Do you like her?”

Artemis was about to say “yes” when he changed his mind in the spur of a moment, and he kept quiet.

Simon and Zayron's DNA report will be out soon. How am I supposed to carry myself in the family as Simon's brother if I admit my feelings for her now?

“You must be kidding, Ms. Stone. Ms. Bailey is my son's aunt. There's no way I will see her in that way.”

On the other side, Dwayne was fuming in his heart. What a hypocrite! Anyone could tell your motive for

involving yourself in this issue. Even a young girl like her realized it too!

Juliana shrugged and smiled back. “Since you don't like her, there's no need for me to give you face. I heard Ms. Bailey was unapologetic even after what she did. Not only did she refuse to admit her fault, but she also refused to destroy her design. She even said that she wanted to take this to court. Since that's the case, justice shall be delivered legally. I've made up my mind. I won't budge unless you talk to my mentor—”

“Well said!” a woman's voice suddenly interrupted from outside. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Artemis rubbed between his brows subconsciously, showing his helpless face.

She's two hours earlier than I expected. I guess there's no luck trying to persuade Juliana.

Felicity walked in confidently until she stood in front of Artemis. “You've used all the means you could to get her on your side, but you've failed miserably. It's time you give up.”

“I think so too. You guys have fun talking. I'll make a move first,” Artemis replied, looking down with a bitter smile.

Felicity stared at him, puzzled.

Is he leaving just like that?

It was not until Artemis and Dwayne disappeared from her sight that Felicity snapped back to her senses.

He really left.

Felicity turned and held Juliana's hand. “You're a good kid. You've chosen wisely. Everyone is entitled to their rights, so we cannot just let someone who infringes our rights go free. They will only be emboldened to do evil if we let them go. There's nothing you need to worry about. I will cover all the legal fees. You just have to prosecute her. I'll take care of the rest.”

“Sure,” Juliana replied readily.

So, this is the old hag who wants to destroy my mentor. I'll remember what you did!

Felicity was exhilarated, but she decided to err on the safe side and take swift action on second thought. She did not want to risk Juliana changing her mind if Artemis talked to her again.

“Do you have time now? How about we go to the court to hand in the documents and file a claim now? The court can send out a notice earlier if we do that,” Felicity suggested.

“Why not? I'll go get changed now.” Juliana blinked her eyes, quickly hiding the cunning glint in her eyes.

Felicity's smile grew wider when she heard that. The anger in her eyes faded away because things were finally going her way.

“Sure thing. Go ahead. I'll wait for you at the door.”

Juliana smiled at her and went back into her room.

The smile on her face vanished the moment she closed her door behind her.

She paced to the bed and took out her phone to text Zayron.

It's all ready.

Outside Shelbert Condominium, Bailey had just gotten out of the taxi when a crowd of reporters swarmed at her, clogging up the entrance to her residence.

“Here's the copycat!” they shouted as they ran toward her.
