Bailey was so caught off guard by her reply that she froze up completely.

After all, no one would ever think about doing something that nasty.

“I'm sorry, what did you just say? Could you repeat that?”

Rhonda's expression grew increasingly vicious as she replied, “I could say it a million times, and it wouldn't change a thing. I want you to sleep with my father, who is also your adoptive father.”

Bailey clenched her fists as she finally understood what was going on.

My goodness... Have these two lost their minds?

She glared coldly at Clarence, who was casually sipping on a cup of coffee, and asked, “Mr. Jefferson, are you going to just sit there and let your daughter do this? Do you realize that our lives will be ruined if we end up sleeping together?”

Clarence simply lowered his gaze and remained silent.

“The outside world will think you seduced your adoptive father out of loneliness and tried to blame it all on him. What do you think of this arrangement, Bailey? Everyone will look down on you and shame you wherever you go, so you will never be able to live a normal life after this!” Rhonda continued with a sneer.

Bailey let out a chuckle in exasperation.

She had assumed that Clarence would only threaten her with the grudge between the Gezmond family and the Saunders family, but what he had in mind was far worse than that.

As Bailey felt her vision start to go blurry, she recalled the waiter she bumped into on her way to the cafe.

The waiter was pushing a cart with dozens of flowers with strong smells to hide the scent of the drug they were laced with. Because Bailey's sense of smell was lowered due to her pregnancy, she didn't detect anything off about the scent.


Ugh, I can't believe I let my guard down! I got too confident in my own abilities and ended up underestimating Clarence's level of shamelessness. To think that he would go as far as sleeping with me just to destroy me completely...

The mere thought of it disgusted Bailey so much that she felt like throwing up on the spot.

“I've made all the arrangements, Dad. The journalists that Zoey contacted are on standby. All you have to do is get yourselves naked in bed,” Rhonda said.

Bailey was so angry that her veins were bulging underneath the skin of her forehead.

Clarence slowly stood up and made his way over to her. “You ruined the lives of both my daughters, so it's time I get my revenge on you. I can't afford to let anyone threaten Zoey's position in the Shurmer family, so I have no choice but to sacrifice you.”

The look in Bailey's eyes was as cold as ice.

It was the first time she had ever gotten this mad at someone.

If she had a gun on her, she probably would have pumped the two of them full of lead on the spot.

Bailey felt a pain in her lower abdomen due to the sudden fluctuation in her emotion, but there was nothing she could do about it.

I know that using hypnosis would possibly affect my baby, but I don't have a choice. If I let these two get away with this plan of theirs, then my children and I will have to spend the rest of our lives in shame! Seducing one's adoptive father definitely won't sit well with society, and we are living in an era where the internet is filled with social media trolls. Even the slightest mistake could result in a person's downfall, let alone something as serious as this. Clarence, Rhonda, and Zoey... How dare you three set me up like this?

Bailey was so consumed by rage that she was trembling all over while the pain in her lower abdomen spread across her body.

She knew that she would most likely lose her baby, but she didn't stop what she was doing, nor did she try to quell her anger.

Rhonda was starting to get a little carried away after seeing that her plan was falling into place. “Once this is over, I'll be able to crush you beneath my heel for good! You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this day, Bailey! No one will come to your aid this time! This room is fitted with a signal jammer, so you won't be able to call for help. Try your best to enjoy the remaining peaceful moments of your life, because everything is going to go downhill after this! I hope you like being mocked and spat on everywhere you go! Hahahahahahahaha!”

The sound of her maniacal laughter echoed throughout the private room.

After suffering for so long, Rhonda was determined to seize this perfect opportunity to vent her anger and enjoy the moment as much as possible.

“I won't kill you, Bailey. I want you to live and watch as the people you love view you in disgust. I want you to suffer losing those who were closest to you. I bet that would feel so horrible that you'd wish I killed you instead!”

“Is that so? Sorry, but you're in for a huge disappointment. It appears you haven't suffered enough to learn your lesson, Rhonda. I guess I'll have to increase your suffering and make you regret everything you've done.”

Rhonda's vicious smile was frozen in place after hearing that. Before she even realized what was going on, her eyes had glazed over and appeared empty.

Bailey then completed the hypnosis by snapping her fingers twice, placing Rhonda completely under her control.

She then shifted her gaze toward Clarence and controlled him with her hypnosis as well.

“Play with fire, and you'll get burnt. You forced my hand, so don't blame me for what I'm about to do. Let's have you two 'bond' a little in this tearoom.”
