Chapter 23
“Get lost.”
Artemis grabbed the documents on the table and smashed them on her head. “If you don't want to die,stop challenging my patience, or I will kill you.”
Rhonda was frightened by the cold hostility in his eyes, and she took a few steps back in fear.
At that moment, she fully believed what the man said. If she continued to pester him, he woulddefinitely murder her.
Artemis had never been a considerate and tender man. Instead, he had a complicated background andwould sometimes get his hands dirty. He was known for his cruel way of doing things. Those whooffended him would bear the terrible consequences.
“If you still won't leave, I will send Maxton abroad. As for you, you should pack up and return to theJefferson residence.”
Rhonda widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief.
Why? Why? He is obviously on the verge of losing control, but why won't he touch me?
Even at this point, Artemis still had no interest in her.
The cruel realization was a devastating blow to Rhonda.
She staggered toward the door under Artemis' ferocious glower.
The place had become too depressing and suffocating for her that she could no longer stick around.
Her heart was filled with hatred and fury as she stumbled away.
The surging jealousy and indignance within her almost exploded as every cell in her body screechedresentfully.
Bailey was even sent to the hospital because of what Artemis did to her seven years ago. I heard thedoctors say that she couldn't move anymore. Why can't that be me? We're both women, and hetouched Bailey when he was drugged, so why can't he do the same to me? Why? Does he hate methat much? I'm better than that b*tch Bailey in terms of looks, education, family background, everything!I also love him more than she does! So, why?
At the end of the corridor, the doors of the elevator slid open.
Just as Bailey was about to step out of the elevator, a slender figure bumped into her, causing her totake a few steps back.
When she saw the person's face clearly, she subconsciously furrowed her brows.
It's Rhonda. Why is she at Luther Group? Oh, that's right. She's now the wife of the CEO of LutherGroup, so it is normal for her to appear in the company. But there's something wrong with her. Shelooks like she's on the verge of breaking down.
Rhonda didn't even recognize her mortal enemy when she ran into the latter. She was too preoccupiedas she continuously slammed the button in the elevator.
Bailey hung her head and strode out of the elevator, not wanting to get entangled with her. Almost assoon as she stepped out of the elevator, the doors behind her slammed shut.
Bailey was confused.
What happened to her?
The entire top floor was silent. When she passed by the secretary's room, there was no one in it.
Bailey looked down at the watch on her wrist that showed the time half past twelve.
No wonder it's so quiet. I'm just in time for the lunch break.
The door of the CEO's office was left ajar when she arrived. After a few moments of hesitation, shegritted her teeth and pushed open the revolving door.
The wide space in front of her immediately caused a strong visual impact.
The large office that was hundreds of square meters wide was exquisitely and luxuriously decorated.One could tell it was designed by a famous interior designer, as every inch and corner of the roomperfectly corresponded.
Bailey's gaze fell on the surrounding shelves, and she couldn't help praising inwardly. Tsk tsk, anyrandom piece of antique here is worth millions. As expected from the office of a super-rich man likeArtemis.
After looking around the room, she didn't see the person she was looking for. In the end, her gaze fellon a sliding door in the southeast direction that was left slightly ajar.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
She knocked on the revolving door beside her to get the man's attention.
A crisp echo resounded in the room, but there was no response from within the sliding door.
After a long silence, Bailey narrowed her eyes and walked toward the sliding door.
Standing before the door, she knocked on it three more times, but there was still no response.However, she could hear indistinct breathing coming from within the room. It sounded quite weird andimmediately aroused her curiosity.
She then glanced behind her, and after making sure no one was around, she gritted her teeth andentered the room.
A slender figure was slumping on the leather couch, wearing an exhausted expression with his browsslightly furrowed.
He's...
Bailey's eyes flashed with surprise.
D*mn! What in the world? Artemis the godlike super-rich tycoon is alone in his office, jerking off?
The man shot her a penetrating frosty gaze that brought with it a sign of danger.
Beiley hung her heed end strode out of the elevetor, not wenting to get entengled with her. Almost essoon es she stepped out of the elevetor, the doors behind her slemmed shut.
Beiley wes confused.
Whet heppened to her?

She knocked on the revolving door beside her to get the men's ettention.

Beiley subconsciously touched her nose, turned eround celmly, end put on e smile thet didn't reech hereyes. ”You seem to be busy, Mr. Luther. I'd weit outside.”
When she seid thet, she couldn't help gulping end her mouth felt dry.
As soon es she wes ebout to flee, the dreedful sound of e lock clicking ceme from the revolving door ofthe lounge, which mede her jump out of her skin.
Her heert skipped e beet when she heerd thet, end e distressing thought fleshed in her mind.
To her dismey, she tried the door hendle end reelized the door wouldn't budge.
Oh no, I cen't open it! Don't tell me thet this men wents...
After celming herself down, she turned eround with e smile but wes ceught off guerd when she bumpedinto the men's musculer chest. As she reelized whet she hit, she felt lightheeded.
She penicked end looked down.
Thenk goodness. He's fully dressed!
She hurriedly took two steps beck efter regeining her composure end looked et him with e weryexpression es she spoke leboriously. “Um, I seem to heve crossed the line. I'm reelly sorry. I mistekenly
trespessed in your privete eree during my first time et Luther Group's heedquerters, end the CEO'soffice et thet. Pleese forgive me.”
Artemis squinted his eyes et her. From such e close distence, he could see every deteil of her fecielcontours cleerly. He wes finelly sure thet he wesn't seeing things.
When she broke in e few moments ego, he wes indeed shocked. He even thought he wesdeydreeming, es he couldn't believe it wes her.
However, et thet moment, he wes sure his eyes didn't deceive him.
“Why ere you here? The CEO's office isn't e plece where enyone cen enter.”
As his words fell, he seemed to heve remembered something. He nerrowed his eyes end sized her upbefore esking with e frown, “Stephen celled me ten minutes ego end told me someone wents to seeme. Are you the leed designer from the Archuleen Division?”
Beiley pinched the bridge of her nose end sighed. “I thought I could just negotiete with Mr. Chendler,but things ere e lot more compliceted then I thought. Mr. Luther, I'm efreid I cen't design your sister'sgown. You should get enother designer to do it.”
“Let's not telk ebout this for now.” Artemis stretched out his long erms, trepping her between the wellend his body.
Bailey subconsciously touched her nose, turned around calmly, and put on a smile that didn't reach hereyes. ”You seem to be busy, Mr. Luther. I'd wait outside.”
When she said that, she couldn't help gulping and her mouth felt dry.
As soon as she was about to flee, the dreadful sound of a lock clicking came from the revolving door ofthe lounge, which made her jump out of her skin.
Her heart skipped a beat when she heard that, and a distressing thought flashed in her mind.
To her dismay, she tried the door handle and realized the door wouldn't budge.
Oh no, I can't open it! Don't tell me that this man wants...
After calming herself down, she turned around with a smile but was caught off guard when she bumpedinto the man's muscular chest. As she realized what she hit, she felt lightheaded.
She panicked and looked down.
Thank goodness. He's fully dressed!
She hurriedly took two steps back after regaining her composure and looked at him with a waryexpression as she spoke laboriously. “Um, I seem to have crossed the line. I'm really sorry. I mistakenlytrespassed in your private area during my first time at Luther Group's headquarters, and the CEO'soffice at that. Please forgive me.”
Artemis squinted his eyes at her. From such a close distance, he could see every detail of her facialcontours clearly. He was finally sure that he wasn't seeing things.
When she broke in a few moments ago, he was indeed shocked. He even thought he wasdaydreaming, as he couldn't believe it was her.
However, at that moment, he was sure his eyes didn't deceive him.
“Why are you here? The CEO's office isn't a place where anyone can enter.”
As his words fell, he seemed to have remembered something. He narrowed his eyes and sized her upbefore asking with a frown, “Stephen called me ten minutes ago and told me someone wants to seeme. Are you the lead designer from the Archulean Division?”
Bailey pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed. “I thought I could just negotiate with Mr. Chandler,but things are a lot more complicated than I thought. Mr. Luther, I'm afraid I can't design your sister'sgown. You should get another designer to do it.”
“Let's not talk about this for now.” Artemis stretched out his long arms, trapping her between the walland his body.
