Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 279

In the CEO's office at Fashionista, Lionel sat on the revolving chair and shot a cold stare at the middle-

aged man reporting to him.

He demanded in an icy tone, “What do you mean by 'Saunders Group has mobilized all of their assets

and is now controlling the stock market?’”

The middle-aged man sighed and gritted his teeth. “Ms. Saunders is going against the rules and

controlling the market. She managed to stabilize Saunders Group's stocks. I'm guessing that she plans

to sell the stocks she has in one go and get a huge sum of money. After that, I don't know whether

she's planning to flee or self-destruct.”

Crack!

Lionel crushed the wine glass in his hand.

He knew Victoria very well. She would never flee after getting the money, so the only reason why she

did that was to send herself to jail.

What a cruel woman.

Precisely because he had sent her brother to jail using the same method, she wanted to send herself to

jail in a similar manner.

She was not inflicting pain on herself but torturing him instead and using this method to take revenge

on him.

At that moment, Lionel's eyes turned bloodshot and were filled with raging emotions.

Victoria! The person who's truly cruel isn't me, but you. Well done! You are merciless enough. How

vicious of you!

If that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony either. If you want to go to jail, just stay there for the rest of

your life.

“Ignore her and continue with the acquisition. Within a week, I want Saunders Group to become one of

LG's assets.”

“Got it.”

After leaving the café, Bailey drove to Saunders Group instead of returning to the Luther residence.

She barged into the office on the highest floor and strode past the desk.

Dragging Victoria up from the chair, she demanded furiously, “You! Explain to me what on earth is

going on!”

With that, she slammed her phone on the table.

Not putting up any struggle at all, Victoria looked over. After shooting the screen a casual glance, she

burst out laughing and asked, “You know about it already?”

“Are you admitting to it?” Bailey glared at her with bloodshot eyes and bellowed, “Vicky! Have your

brains been eaten by zombies? How can you destroy your life and send yourself to jail just for a man's

sake? If you're so selfless, why don't you just go and die instead?”

As she spoke, tears streamed down her cheeks.

After knowing that her eldest son was a stillborn, Bailey, a strong and determined woman, had never

shed a single tear again regardless of the hardships she had experienced.

Yet, she was now forced to tears because of her best friend.

Victoria flung Bailey's hand away and hugged her. Smiling, she reassured, “Shh! Don't cry. This was

fated to happen a long time ago, just that it arrived seven years late. I've already mentally prepared

myself. Since you're so strong, I'm sure that you can accept it calmly.”

“Must you really do this?” Bailey started bawling. While crying, she took out a plane ticket from her

pocket and stuffed it into Victoria's hand. “Leave! Leave right now! Go as far as you can and never

come back! I'd rather not see you for the rest of my life than watch you send yourself to jail.”

Victoria rested her head on Bailey's shoulders and listened to her sobs. However, a peaceful smile

formed on Victoria's lips as if she had attained liberation. “Bay, my life is worse than death now.

Perhaps, I might have peace of mind in jail. That's my only haven now.”

Bailey shoved her away forcefully and asked through gritted teeth, “So you insist on going?”

Grinning, Victoria nodded. “Yes, I must go.”

“Fine! Fine! Fine!” After repeating that three times, Bailey took a dagger from her waist and placed it in

Victoria's hand. “Vicky, we're best friends, right?”

As Victoria stared at Bailey in shock, her hand, which was holding the dagger, trembled gently.

She understood what Bailey was trying to say.

“No. From now on, our friendship has ended.”

“Hah!” Bailey laughed mockingly. “Looks like you're dead-set on going to prison. Fine! I'll fulfill your

wish since we're friends. You shouldn't manipulate the stock market to convict yourself. I can't bear to

see you ruin your life like this.”

After speaking, she grabbed Victoria's hand and pulled it toward her abdomen abruptly.

Victoria had already detected her intentions, so she would not let the dagger stab Bailey's stomach.

Crying, she pleaded, “Don't do this, Bay! Please! Don't do this, okay?”

With a look of utter despair, Bailey stared at Victoria in pity and sorrow. Her voice was filled with agony

as she said, “If you stab me, I can send you to jail by accusing you of attempted murder. It's the same!

Why must you destroy yourself and ruin your reputation like that? I can't bear to let that happen, Vicky!”

Victoria broke free from Bailey's grip and tossed the dagger far away. Then, she lunged into Bailey's

arms and cried at the top of her lungs, “Bay, what should I do?”

At that moment, the idea of hypnotizing her surfaced in Bailey's mind.

If those memories are wiped clean, would she be in less pain?

“Repay him with Saunders Group's bankruptcy. Don't ruin your life. As for your father, I'll think of a way

to protect him.”

“No, I still have to do this. Unless Lionel forgives me and stops me personally, I'll not change my

decision.”

Bailey sighed gently.

Perhaps, it's time for me to meet Lionel.

A day later, The Grand Fashion Show, held once every four years, was successfully hosted at

Hallsbay's Century Hotel.

Numerous world-renowned designers arrived at the venue alongside powerful figures from Hallsbay's

political and business worlds. It was an extremely grand scene.

The main reason was that the show was sponsored by Luther Group. No matter what, they had to

show up out of respect for Artemis.

“Who do you think The Ultimate Designer would be this time?”

“Is there a need to guess? It's definitely going to be Bailey Jefferson. Not only is she the famous

designer, Snowflake, but she's also famous in Luther Group. Since this show is also sponsored by Mr.

Luther, the outcome is certain. We're just here to watch the show. I heard that there'll be a mysterious

VIP at the dinner banquet. I'm guessing that it's Mr. Luther. And, yes, I'm here just because of him. Go

ahead and call me a simp.”

“You aren't the only one. Many of the bachelorettes have come from overseas just for Mr. Luther. Ever

since his wedding with Rhonda was canceled, many women's dreams have been rekindled. If they

manage to grab this opportunity to get into his bed, they'll be the future matriarch of the Luther family.”

Sitting in a corner with a cap over her head, Bailey eavesdropped on the women gossiping around her.

I didn't expect that b*stard to be so charismatic. Despite having a fake marriage certificate with

Rhonda, he's still able to make so many women swoon over him.

If I keep rejecting him over and over again, would that make me seem ungrateful?

“Hey, Bailey. Don't tell me that you're planning to make me scurry around in the crowd for the entire

night. I'm your son, not a pet monkey.”

When Bailey heard Zayron's bitter complaints through the headset, she raised her eyebrow and

laughed. She replied softly, “If you can't capture Cadence tonight, I'll make you into an actual monkey.”
