Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis)

Chapter 1116

Chapter 1116 Reconciliation

As Bailey was about to sit up, Artemis suddenly rolled over.

Surprised, she instinctively covered her belly. "Artemis, what are you doing? You're squishing the

baby."

"I'm not." Artemis positioned his hands on either side of her body, trying to avoid putting weight on her.

"This trick really works. It actually got you talking. If I had known this, I would have used it from the

start."

Bailey reached out to push him, squirming restlessly.

Artemis held her wrist and whispered ambiguously in her ear. "Such enthusiasm, is it because you

want something?"

Bailey bit his shoulder with enough strength to make him grunt.

However, he continued to lean close to her ear, his warm breath fanning against it. "Men tend to have

greater needs in the morning. If you don't want to be bothered by me... Behave yourself."

Bailey gradually ceased her struggle and suddenly grabbed the collar of his clothes. She declared,

"The child in my belly is yours."

Artemis smiled. "I know. You don't need to explain. My sense of pride comes from within."

Does he think that's what I'm trying to say? Hmph. Bailey spat, "What I mean is, don't use force to

intimidate me. Even if you bully me, in the end, it's your own offspring who will get hurt."

Artemis' brows softened. His gaze swept over her flat belly. Then, he turned over and held her close,

leaning against the head of the bed. "Bay, let's have a chat."

Bailey, with a stern expression, was not willing to back down. She threw off the covers, ready to leave

the bed. "There's nothing for us to discuss."

Artemis tightened his arm around her waist and whispered softly, "There are still many things we can

discuss, such as the past incidents of Interpol suppressing the Saviors."

Upon hearing that, Bailey exploded. "Let go of me."

"I won't let go." Artemis held her tightly, his voice hoarse. "I know where I went wrong. My mistake was

that I'd rather let you misunderstand my involvement with Rebecca than tell you about the identity of

The Exterminator. I must admit, I had pictured you as somewhat unreasonable, assuming you'd hold a

grudge against me once you found out I am The Exterminator. However, in reality, you understand the

bigger picture. There's no way you would've blamed me for suppressing the Saviors all those years

ago."

Gradually, Bailey ceased her struggle. It seems like he truly realizes his mistakes. Does that mean I C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

can forgive him now? Tsk, tsk, tsk, Bailey, is this all the backbone you have? A single sentence from a

man is enough to melt your heart? Being so unprincipled, you're doomed to be bullied by him for a

lifetime.

Thus, she said, "You're overthinking it. I'm sorry, but you guessed wrong. I simply hold a grudge against

you for being too oppressive back then. That's why I remember this vendetta. If you have no further

advice to offer, let go of me. I have a lot of things to deal with and don't have time to chat with you

here."

Seeing her puffing her cheeks, looking as if she was holding in a belly full of anger, Artemis couldn't

help but poke her cheek. "All right, don't be upset anymore. I promise I won't keep anything from you in

the future. In front of you, I will definitely be honest."

Bailey rolled her eyes, wanting to forgive him before snuggling into his arms. However, that might make

her seem spineless, so she didn't.

Artemis seemed to sense her hesitation and slightly raised his eyebrow. He said with a half smile, "Am

I really that unforgivable? If you believe I'm unforgivable, then let's postpone our wedding. I don't want

you to feel aggrieved."

"No way." Bailey blurted out in opposition, only realizing after the fact that she had been too hasty,

inadvertently revealing her true thoughts.

Artemis beamed as he gently lowered his head to plant a kiss on the corner of her eye. "Bailey, there

are many people in this world who want to tear us apart. They attack us openly and secretly, and it's

impossible to guard against them all. Do you know, every step I take now feels like walking on thin ice?

You said after all the hardships we've been through, we've finally come together. Wouldn't it be a pity if

we were to part ways because of some external factors? So, let's give each other a bit more trust and

reliance. This time, it's my fault. I sincerely apologize to you and promise there won't be a next time.

We came to Zaewora to deal with Faceless, hoping to return to Hallsbay for our wedding once she's

taken care of. Shall we work together toward this goal?"

Bailey took a deep breath, looked up at him, and asked earnestly, "Do you promise this is the last time

and you won't hide anything from me ever again?"

Artemis reached out to touch her belly gently, lowering his head to nibble on her ear. He softly said, "I

won't dare again. From now on, I'll tell you everything right away. Let's first resolve the matter in

Zaewora, then make a trip back to the Tarragon. I will personally apologize to Micah and Shannon, and

tell them..."

Before he could finish speaking, Bailey immediately covered his mouth with her hand, shaking her

head at him and saying, "Micah and Shannon are doing well now. If we bring up the past, it's like

reopening their wounds and then rubbing salt into them. The loss of their child has already caused

them immense pain. Do you really want to push them to hate us? We are their best friends, after all,

and they have been hurt tremendously. Let's put this matter behind us and never bring it up again. Let

that series of unfortunate events become a secret, thoroughly buried and forgotten."

Artemis chuckled, acknowledging the magnanimity of the woman before him. Her intention is not for me

to apologize to Micah and Shannon for my wrongdoings, but for them to find a way out of their

desperate situations and mend their broken relationship. With the passage of time, Shannon's situation

has improved. The greatest kindness I can show them is to avoid bringing up the past. "Alright, I will

listen to my wife then... Does this mean you have forgiven me?"

Bailey coughed lightly twice, trying to avoid bringing up the old issue of her giving Raiden his shirt. She

stubbornly replied, "I haven't forgiven you. You made me travel around the world back then. How can I

easily let go of this matter?"

Observing her evasive gaze, Artemis had a good sense of the little plan she was concocting in her

mind. She is indeed quite stubborn. In that case... "I heard that you made coffee for Cameron last night

and even claimed it was the first time you have brewed coffee since becoming a master. We have

known each other for so long. How come I didn't know that you were skilled in the art of coffee?"

Bailey was taken aback. How could I have forgotten about this? It's all over now. The frustration in my

heart dissipates too quickly, allowing him to do whatever he wants. I need to salvage this situation.

She scanned the room with her gaze, finally fixing her eyes on the scroll painting by the bedside. I've

got an idea!

She quickly reached out to retrieve the scroll, waving it in front of Artemis. "The reason I made coffee

for him was to get this scroll back. This is my masterpiece, you know. Doesn't it bother you to see it in

the hands of another man? To consider your feelings, I specially brewed a pot of coffee for him, and

then exchanged it for the portrait. I think you should thank me."
