Chapter 371

“S-She looks like the Fletcher family's daughter, Scarlett.”

What?

A commotion erupted at the scene.

The legitimate wife can't bear to watch how things will progress and decides to come to the battlefieldto fight with the lover? F*ck! Things are becoming more and more interesting.

The next second, Scarlett was encircled by numerous reporters.

Tamara felt things were getting out of hand, but with her identity, she couldn't rush to her daughterrecklessly.

“The two of you, hurry up and get over there to drag Scarlett back here.”

The bodyguards standing beside Tamara nodded and weaved through the crowd toward the steps.

A reporter questioned, “Ms. Fletcher, is Ms. Revelle telling the truth? Your fiancé, Mr. Xuereb, has anillegitimate child outside your relationship?”

Anger filled Scarlett, and her words were starting to lose sense. “That's right. That thing is anillegitimate child. He will only be an illegitimate child in this lifetime. I will never let Justin bring him backto the Xuereb family to be registered in the family register.”

Another reporter asked, “Since Mr. Xuereb already has a child, do you still insist on marrying into the

Xuereb family, Ms. Fletcher?”

“Why wouldn't I?” Scarlett shot a death glare at Veronique, who stood atop the stage. “She's thehomewrecker and the one who destroyed my engagement with Justin. Thus the one who should stepdown is her and not me.”

Veronique felt her confidence surge as she gazed at the aggressive look on Scarlett's face.

This woman keeps repeating homewrecker, wife, or illegitimate child in every sentence. Enough isenough. I can't stand it any longer.

“What right do you have to call me a homewrecker, Scarlett?”

Veronique's spirit caught Scarlett off guard briefly before Scarlett's temper spiked.

“Look at her, everyone. She actually dared to ask me what right I have to call her a homewrecker.Shouldn't I call her so, though?”

Um...

A cold smile tugged at Veronique's lips. Bay was right. One can only use extreme means to suppressunreasonable people. She'll give in instantly if others are stronger than her.

“Since Ms. Fletcher keeps emphasizing the identity of homewrecker and wife, then allow me todebate.”

Veronique cast a glance at a staff on the side.

The large screen on the stage was turned on the next moment.

The staff toggled to Hallsbay's City Hall Marriage Registration System and input Justin's andVeronique's names in the search engine.

Two marriage certificates popped up on the large screen in the next second.

“F*ck me! Justin and Veronique are legitimate husband and wife!”

“D*mn, this revelation is way too explosive. Ms. Fletcher has become the homewrecker.”

“Woah, this is some unexpected plot twist.”

“Great. The homewrecker has become the wife, and the wife has stooped to being a homewrecker.”

“This is hilarious!”

It was indeed funny.

None of them expected things would progress in that direction.

“I'm sure everyone has seen for themselves that Justin and I are a legitimate couple. Our child islegitimate as well, so please consider the choice of words you use before accusing my child of beingillegitimate.”

Scarlett's face turned red from rage. Her beautiful features contorted.

At that moment, the two bodyguards had finally reached her. One of them spoke into her ear. “Ms.Scarlett, Mrs. Fletcher has asked us to escort you out of the venue.”

Scarlett didn't want to stay there any longer after humiliating herself.

Nevertheless, she couldn't leave at that point. Reporters had flocked to her and blocked her fromleaving.

They flung a barrage of rude questions at her.

Everywhere Scarlett looked, she only saw mocking gazes. Anger rose within her at the humiliation. Theimpact raised her blood pressure, causing her to faint.

Meanwhile, Bailey was watching the confident Veronique on the screen. Her lips curled into a faintsmile at the sight.

Now, this is the Veronique I know. Scarlett doesn't even match up to her in a fight. In the end, being amother makes a woman stronger than before. If Zephyr hadn't forced her, she probably wouldn't havetaken that step.

“It looks like dealing with the Fletcher family's wrath is next on the agenda. I wonder if the Revellefamily and the Xuereb family can handle it.”

She cast a glance at the man sitting beside her with his eyes shut. “I think I should ask Raiden out for achat so that—”

Before she could finish, the man beside her suddenly loomed over her, caging her against the couch.

“Bringing up that fellow's name in front of me, huh? Are you treating me like I'm nothing?”

Bailey held in her laughter. “What else can I do? I can't just watch the Revelle family bear the brunt ofthe consequences from the sidelines.”

Artemis started taking off her clothes. “Pleasure me, and I promise to help you if I'm satisfied.”

Finally, Bailey couldn't contain her laughter any longer and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Let'stake this to the bedroom.”

Artemis didn't move as he studied her exquisite face. His long slender fingers lightly brushed acrossher eyebrow. “Have you truly decided to give up on your family?”

Bailey tightened her arms around Artemis' neck and arched her brow. “I have a new family, namely thethree kids and... your family.”

A wide smile spread across Artemis' face as he lifted Bailey into his arms and carried her toward thebedroom.

In the study at the medical base, Olivia slammed down a stack of newspapers on her son's desk. “Whogave that b*tch from the Revelle family the guts to say that b*stard of hers is a member of the Xuerebfamily?”

Coldness flitted across Justin's face at her crude remarks.

“They are your daughter-in-law and grandson. Please respect them.”
