Super Mommy and Her Triplets -
Chapter 570
Chapter 570
It was a rather bad fall that she started bleeding.
In that instant, the entire Shurmer family went into chaos.
Waverly stood on the steps outside the infirmary with a grim face and stared at the group of servants.
“Why is there essential oil on the ground of the garden? Don't tell me it's a coincidence. Speak up! Whopoured the oil here? Who is trying to kill the eldest grandson of the Shurmer family?”
All the servants did not even dare to let out a breath, let alone answer her question.
Waverly was furious when none of them owned up to the mistake. “Fine, fine. Since no one wants tosay anything, I'm going to call the police. Let them bring all of you in for questioning.”
“No, I don't want to go to the police station. Once I'm being brought there, people will always look at medifferently even though I'm innocent.”
“That's right, Mrs. Shurmer. We didn't do it. How can you send all of us to the police station? We'reinnocent.”
“Mrs. Shurmer, I have been working with the Shurmer family for so many years now. If you do that,aren't you worried that you will break our hearts?”
Waverly laughed out in anger. “Sure. As long as you can tell me who the culprit is, I won't send the restof you into the prison for questioning.”
All the servants looked at one another.
After some time, a servant in her twenties stepped forward.
She glanced at Sammy and mumbled an apology to her before raising her voice, “Mrs. Shurmer, it's thebutler. Last night, when no one was watching, she poured the essential oil on the bluestone pavement.Other than the garden, she also did it in the gazebo and the artificial lake.”
Sammy's face turned pale. She stared coldly at the servant who accused her before looking up atWaverly. “Mrs. Shurmer, please don't be fooled by her. Why will I hurt Ms. Gourd and her unborn child?I—”
“It's her.” Another servant stepped forward and testified against Sammy. “Last night, I also saw thebutler sneaking around the artificial lake. She seemed to be doing something, but it was too dark for meto see clearly.”
“You—”
Waverly gazed at Sammy, and she appeared extremely upset. “Tell me. Why did you do it?”
Sammy remained silent. Since she had been exposed, she would have to accept her fate.
Zeke had promised to give her a huge reward that would allow her to live out the rest of her life incomfort. Thus, there was no way she would reveal the truth and expose him.
“A few days ago, I made a mistake and was given a few slaps by Ms. Gourd. She embarrassed me in
front of so many housekeepers, and I got angry. That's why I wanted revenge.”
Waverly was no fool. She knew that Sammy was just looking for an excuse. Sammy had been workingin the Shurmer family for so many years, and Waverly knew her well enough to know that there was noway Sammy would seek revenge just because she received a few slaps from Shirley.
“Mrs. Shurmer, the doctor says that the baby is safe for the time being. But, Ms. Gourd will have to restin bed for the next few months. Otherwise, there is still a high chance of a miscarriage.”
Waverly let out a sigh of relief when she heard the good news. “That's good then.”
After that, she stared at Sammy and said coldly, “I won't pursue the matter since you have been a loyalworker but you have to leave. The Shurmer family cannot keep a butler who will harm her employer.”
What?
Without another word, Waverly turned and walked toward the infirmary.
Just as she turned around, her eyes darkened.
She was sure that someone had put Sammy up to that. There was only one person who couldcommand Sammy and hated Shirley.
Zeke...
She did not expect that b*stard son of hers to be so vicious. He would not even spare his own flesh andblood.
Zeke was seeking revenge because he did not want to marry Shirley. To top it off, Waverly refused toallow Bailey to return to the Shurmer family. Is he trying to get back at me?
Zeke was indeed her son.
By the look of it, she could not just let him be.
Whether Zeke liked it or not, he would have to marry Shirley.
...
Meanwhile, at the top-floor office of the Shurmer Group, Zeke was eyeing Artemis with interest. Artemishad visited him out of the blue.
“What have I done to deserve such an honor? The great Mr. Luther is actually here to visit me despitehis busy schedule.”
Artemis rolled his eyes and said nonchalantly, “I would have visited anyone who is my brother-in-law.”
In other words, Zeke had done nothing to deserve a visit from Artemis. It was only because of hisspecial status. If another man was his brother-in-law, Artemis would have paid that man a visit too.
Zeke could not help but chuckle, “What can I do for you?”
“I have to leave Hallsbay for around ten days. Please take care of Bay.”
“What? Leave Hallsbay? Now? Artemis, are you joking with me? Dellmoor has already sent someoneto investigate Bay. If you aren't in Hallsbay, who is she going to depend on?”
Artemis looked at him in amusement and replied, “Of course, she has to depend on you. You're herolder brother. Don't forget that she's not married yet. As her brother, please look after that troublemakerfor me for the time being.”
You got to be kidding.
After a moment of silence, Zeke asked tentatively, “You have to leave? Is it something urgent?”
Artemis nodded. “Someone has deliberately started a war between Tarragon and the Saviors. Bay isthe leader of the Saviors, so I'm sure you don't want her identity to be exposed. I have found a way todeal with those who started this. That's why I have to leave town for a while. Why else do you think Iwill come to you for help?”
Zeke smiled and shook his head. “If you leave Hallsbay, I will have no choice but to take over andprotect her. Surely, I can't allow her to be bullied. What kind of men will we be if we can't even protect awoman?”
“I'll take it that you have agreed. Thank you, Zeke. I have things to do, so I'll be making a move first.”
Zeke was about to stop him when his phone beeped. It was a message from Sammy.
Mr. Zeke, I'm so sorry. I have been exposed. Ms. Gourd is still with child. But, she isn't allowed to movearound for the next few months. If not, she may suffer a miscarriage. All you need now is another pushto make it happen.
Zeke frowned and only replied to her after a while.
Understood. I will still give you whatever I have promised you. Take care.
Very shortly after he sent the message, Waverly called.
“If you still consider me as your mom, come back home right now.” That was all she said.
No matter what happened, she was still his mom. She was still the one who had given birth to him andbrought him up.
As such, Zeke returned to the Shurmer residence.
He raised his brows and looked furious when he saw a few men and women dressed in suits andseated in the living room.
If he was right, those were staff from City Hall.
Are they planning to force me to marry Shirley?
