Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1059

Chapter 1059 What Happened That Night

In a fit of rage, he threw the cup. It was an act of pure instinct without the slightest hint of consideration.

The water cup, in the end, struck Rainie hard in the abdomen.

The moment the water cup hit her lower abdomen, her entire face turned pale, and her body instinctively curled up as her face contorted in pain.

Sylvester couldn't bear to see her shocked and pained expression, yet he couldn't help but worry.

I must have lost my mind to have acted so recklessly just now.

Anyone with a shred of sanity wouldn't have aimed for her stomach.

There, a tiny life was being nurtured. Even though it wasn't his, it was still a part of her, a piece of her flesh. No matter how furious he was, he had no intention of forcefully ending it.

Suppressing the urge to rush over and check on her, he turned his head toward Mason, who was standing dumbfounded at the side, and barked, “What are you standing there for? Get her out of here, now! If she gets my floor dirty, you and your father will definitely face the consequences. Don't blame me for not considering family ties then.”

Mason's face changed instantly, fully aware that he had angered this beast today. If he delayed any further, he wouldn't just lose a few branch offices, but he would be swept out the door.

“I'm leaving now, and I'm taking her with me.”

After Mason finished speaking, he grabbed Rainie's arm and began to drag her toward the door.

Sylvester's face turned dark with anger.

This jerk! Can't he see she's in pain? He's so crude. Is he intentionally trying to make her miscarry? Does he realize that what he possesses now is what I once dreamed of?

If possible, Sylvester would be willing to trade his status as the heir of the Hollett family with him.

Rainie bit her lip tightly and reached out to grasp the shelf. She looked up at Sylvester, her face full of defiance and an unyielding spirit.

“Mr. Hollett, you haven't given me an answer yet.”

Sylvester abruptly closed his eyes. It was unclear what he was thinking. He was eerily calm. Only the slight trembling of his shoulders betrayed his inner thoughts.

This woman... How could you? Do you have to drive me into a corner like this?

Sylvester had had enough. He simply couldn't bear to see her clearly in pain, yet forcing herself to put on a cheerful facade.

“Mason, I will assign two people to help you manage the branch office affairs. As for the family, no one will give you a hard time.”

“For now, you'll stay in Hallsbay. Without my permission, you're not allowed to step out of Hallsbay, understood?”

He knew Mason's character all too well. Mason was certainly not the kind of man to whom one could entrust their entire life.

He didn't understand why Rainie would fall for such a man, but since it was her choice, and one she was determined to uphold, he would respect her decision.

If she were well, then he would have no regrets in his life.

The reason he previously confined her in the nightclub was to sever her connection with Mason. He wished to seek another way out for himself and to fight for the love of his life.

Even the best-laid plans of man could not outwit the will of the heavens. He could never truly defeat fate.

No one knew how desperate he felt the moment he found out she was pregnant.

He knew full well that it meant there would be no future between them anymore.

Unless he ruthlessly chose to kill the unborn child in her womb to forcefully keep her by his side, there was no way out for them. He felt utterly hopeless.

However, if he truly caused the death of her child, what love could possibly remain in their lives? Most likely, all that would be left was endless hatred and resentment.

That was not what he wanted nor what he pursued.

Now that he had become involved with Karina, he felt too ashamed of himself to love Rainie anymore, let alone be heartless and betray Karina, subjecting her to criticism and ruining her reputation.

Twenty minutes later, Bailey arrived at the hospital. Upon learning that Rainie had been rushed into the emergency treatment room, she hurriedly made her way there.

Rainie was experiencing complications with her pregnancy. The situation was seemingly dire. The doctor was currently working on saving her.

Bailey cast a cold gaze at Mason, who was trembling against the wall. Her eyes were sharp, subtly radiating an aura of solemnity and lethality.

Always pampered and privileged, Mason couldn't bear such a gaze. He instinctively shrank back, retreating two steps back.

“M-Ms. Jefferson, it wasn't me. I didn't cause Rainie to end up like this. It was Sylvester, yes, it was Sylvester. He picked up the glass and smashed it hard into Rainie's stomach. If you want to settle scores, go find him. Don't target me.”

With a cold gaze, Bailey looked at him, her eyes full of contempt.

Such a person was simply not worthy of Rainie.

Even if Rainie had truly been involved with him, Bailey couldn't just stand by and watch her stoop herself so low.

“Let me ask you, what exactly happened that night over a month ago?”

Mason's eyes flickered somewhat evasively. He stuttered a couple of sentences, then fell silent.

Bailey's face darkened. She reached for a gun from her waist and pointed it directly at him.

Mason was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground.

If it were someone else, they might hesitate to use weapons in public, but Bailey did not have such reservations.

Hallsbay was the territory of the Luther family. Adding on top of the prowess of the Shurmer family, even if she were to kill the top figure in the city, no one would probably dare to touch her.

“Do you want to speak of your own accord, or do you want me to force you to? If you're choosing the latter option, it wouldn't be so pleasant. I'd surely shoot a few holes in you first.”
