Chapter 13

Is that necessary?

Rhonda had already moved into the Luther residence. If things went smoothly, she would be the next lady of Luther Group. There was no reason for her to risk her son's life just so she could throw Bailey in jail.

Moreover, she was not threatening Rhonda's position in any way, so why would the latter plan such a troublesome scheme to get her into trouble?

Felicity walked over and stretched out her hand to support Rhonda, who looked as though she was about to fall at any moment. “Don't cry, Ronni. She'll pay for everything once she goes to jail. I know you're heartbroken for Max. Don't worry, he's the darling of the Luther family. Whoever harms him will have to face my wrath. I will make sure they spend the rest of their lives locked away,” Felicity comforted.

Sniffling, Rhonda forced another tear out of her eye. Her voice cracked as she spoke. “If Bailey apologizes, I might feel better and let things go. B-But, not only did she poison my son, but she also blamed it on me, as if I would harm my own child. I carried Max in my womb for eight months. What mother would harm their child? Why would I hurt him?”

Felicity fished out a handkerchief for Rhonda so the latter could dry her tears. Naturally, Felicity believed in Rhonda. After all, it should be her pride and joy to be able to bear the Luther family a son. Why would she flush everything down the drain?

Everyone in the world would harm Maxton, except for Rhonda. Felicity was sure of it.

“You're too kind. There, there, dry those tears. You still have me. I got your back. This woman won't be able to cause any more trouble. The police will arrive soon. I'll see to it myself that Mr. Chestway deals with her accordingly.”

“T-Thanks, Mrs. Luther.” Rhonda sniffed.

At that moment, Bailey felt a movement in her arms. Instinctively, she looked down, only to see the boy in her arms staring mindlessly at the ceiling with his eyes wide open, as if he was deep in thought.

“Zayron, you're awake,” she uttered.

The boy blinked a few times before flashing a smile at her. “Don't worry, Bailey. I'm all right.”
