Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 96

Glen's wife had passed away, so the others had been urging Glen to find someone to keep him company so that he didn't need to spend the rest of his life alone.

However, no one could accept it if he were to find a wife who was in her twenties.

Simon continued, “Find yourself a woman in her forties or fifties, okay? In that case, we might be able to accept her. T-That woman is in her twenties! If you marry her, that's unacceptable!”

A trace of anger flashed across Glen's wrinkled old face. He then reached out his hand and smacked the back of Simon's head. “Idiot! What are you on about?”

Simon instinctively tried to dodge it, but he failed.

After getting smacked, Simon pursed his lips and asked, “Didn't you say you like her? What did you mean by that, then?”

Glen scoffed and said, “Only you would think of it that way! I said I like her, but couldn't that mean I want her to marry one of my grandsons?”

“I don't want her.” Simon became emotional again. “That woman has a bad reputation, so I wouldn't want to marry her. Granddad, I'm your grandson, okay? Why would you do that to me?”

Glen glared at him and sneered, “Who said I want her to be your wife? Stop being delusional, will you? I mean Artemis and Edmund.”

Simon was stumped. Granddad is mean, all right.

“Artemis won't accept it. He's into this woman's sister. As for Edmund, there's a chance. Everyone says her son is of the Chivers family's bloodline, right? Who knows? Thanks to her son, she might end up being the next matriarch of the Chivers family,” Simon said.

Glen's eyeballs darted around. At that moment, a mysterious glint flashed across his eyes. Things could be blurry now. However, once the dust has settled, everything's going to be different.

Half an hour later, the trial started as scheduled.

The judge, attorneys, defendant, and the crowd were all there except for the plaintiff.


“What's going on? Why is Juliana not here yet?”

“Exactly! She's the one who submitted the claim. How could she be absent?”

“Did Luther Group threaten her? Is that why she's too scared to appear in court?”

“Hey! Watch what you say. You might get in trouble for that.”

“I'm spitting facts! If Luther Group's CEO really wants to protect Bailey the copycat, who in the country would dare to challenge him?”

Whispers started abounding in the courtroom.

The judge banged the gavel and turned toward the plaintiff's attorney. “Attorney for the plaintiff, when will your client be able to arrive? If she's late, we can only come to the conclusion that she has voluntarily given up the trial. All the allegations are voided, and the defendant wins.”

Matthew was starting to panic. Since half an hour prior, he had been calling Juliana more than fifty times. However, the automated responses told him that she was not in the service area.

“I think she's just caught up in something. Please wait for a few minutes, Your Honor,” Matthew said.

“Okay, this case is of the utmost importance, and now it has become an international issue. We will give it another five minutes. If the plaintiff does not show up after five minutes, then we can only declare the trial to be invalid, and Ms. Jefferson will not be guilty of plagiarism.”

Matthew wiped the beads of sweat off of his forehead and rang Juliana again.

This time around, not only was Juliana's phone out of service, but she had also switched off her phone.

Matthew had turned on the speaker, so everyone heard it. Did she switch off her phone?

“What the f*ck? Is Juliana really not going to show up in court?”

“If the plaintiff isn't here, how is the trial going to carry on?”

“What a blunder! We've all come to support her, and she bailed?”

“F*ck! What the hell is going on here?”

In the spectator area, Felicity's expression was turning grim by the second. I've prevented Artemis and Edmund from helping that b*tch find an attorney. I've also prevented them from putting pressure on the court. However, I forgot to prevent them from getting Juliana to not appear in court! Sh*t! This is utter sh*t!

As time ticked by, comments from the crowd were getting louder and louder.

“No wonder that woman was acting so brazenly! Juliana had been prevented from appearing in court! Without the plaintiff, there'll be no trial.”

“How despicable! Is no one able to stop that woman?”

“Judging by the current situation, I think it's safe to say that she's untouchable. Bailey is a designer Luther Group had employed. If she loses this trial, Luther Group's reputation is going to get affected. There's no way Mr. Luther would let that happen!”

In the spectator area, Beatrice and Rhonda looked grim as well. Nice one, Bailey! You've resorted to using such a despicable way to not let the trial go on. How shameless can you be?
