Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 170

Crack!

The wineglass in the man's palm shattered.

Dark red wine dripped onto the floor with his blood. It caused beautiful but poignant flower patterns to bloom on the expensive carpet.

A roiling hatred was spreading in the bedroom.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

There was a call on his phone.

The man calmed his hatred and anger down before answering the call. “What is it?”

“It'll be your father's death anniversary in a few days, sir. Are you going to return to Hallsbay? Do you need me to clear out your schedule for the next few days?”

Lionel's grip tightened around the phone as he replied in a deep voice, “Postpone them and prepare me a flight. I'll return to Hallsbay in three days. Don't tell anyone about it. I don't want my whereabouts to be exposed, got it?”

“Yes.”

Once the call ended, he shut his eyes. Hallsbay... The city that pushed me into an endless pit of despair, as well as the place where I buried my family and love in a single night. If it's possible, I never want to set foot back there again. However, I was born there. It is also where my ancestors and my parents are buried. The only source of my love and hate is also there.

Crack!

Just then, Wendy opened the door and entered his bedroom in her pajamas.


“What's going on, Nell? I heard something fall to the ground.” When she aimed her gaze lower, she saw his still bleeding palm and gasped, “You're hurt! I'll go and call the family doctor.”

“There's no need for that.” Lionel walked to the door and grabbed her arm. “The wineglass accidentally bumped into the floor-to-ceiling window and shattered. It caused a few cuts on my palm, but it's nothing to worry about. No need to call the doctor.”

Pulling his hand up, Wendy checked if a vital vein was cut. When she saw that did not happen, she let out a sigh of relief. “All right, then. I'll grab the medical kit and bandage your wound. It'll be bad if you get an infection.”

As she spoke, she prepared to head to the living room.

However, he abruptly hugged her tightly and whispered next to her ear, “Have you ever felt aggrieved staying with me for all these years, Wends?”

With a smile, she answered, “Why would I? I'm grateful that you gave me and Yonathan a home. You're the reason he had a normal childhood. If I have a complaint, it'll be that you keep rejecting my advance to sleep with you.”

“Wends...”

“I was just joking. No need to take it seriously, and don't give me a speech either. I think things are fine as is. As long as the three of us stay together, I'm happy with my life.”

Lionel chuckled. “Don't worry, you'll always be my wife. I won't let anyone look down on you.”

“Yes, yes, now please let me go. I still need to grab the medical kit.”

On the other side, Bailey spent five hours in the infirmary inside the Chivers residence.

She went in at half-past eleven in the night and did not walk out until half-past four in the morning the next day.

Seeing how wobbly she was as she walked, Artemis stepped forward and held her.

On the other hand, Felicity ignored how terrifying the younger woman's complexion looked and questioned, “How's my grandson? Did you save him?”

At that point, Bailey was completely spent. She was lying in Artemis' embrace sleepily as she informed weakly, “He's not out of the woods yet. I suspected that he came in direct contact with the drug, which was why his condition was worse than Old Mr. Chivers'.”

“I don't want to hear all that nonsense.” Felicity glared at her with gritted teeth. “I'm asking you how Max is doing. Don't scare me with those exaggerations.”

Bailey opened her mouth before suddenly feeling dizzy and blacking out.

“Bailey!” Artemis exclaimed as pain flashed across his handsome face.

She was absolutely spent.

Before she could even take a breather after wrapping up a fifteen-hour long brain surgery, she had to spend five more hours in the emergency room. Even the sturdiest person could not hold out longer than that.

“All of you stay here and watch over Max. I'll take her to a nearby room for her to rest.”
