Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 18

Out of curiosity, Artemis drew out the leave application and took a glance at it.

It was unusual for employees to submit their leave applications to the CEO's office. Even department directors would only need to submit their leave applications to Dwayne instead of obtaining the CEO's approval.

The applicant was Susan Jefferson, seven years old, and her stage name was Barbara.

Artemis thought the stage name sounded familiar. Barbara? I feel like I've heard this name somewhere before.

The reason stated in the leave application: Mommy wants me to clean up Granny's graveyard.

The corners of Artemis' lips twitched when he came across the reason.

Dwayne could tell something was amiss with his expression and was about to snatch the form back. Oh, Barbara. You could have just called me instead of submitting a leave application. I don't know how the tyrant would react now that he has seen this application.

Artemis arched his brows and quipped, “Why are you so nervous? Is she your illegitimate child?”

“Don't utter nonsense, please.” Dwayne mustered up his courage and stared at the man. Gritting his teeth, he continued, “I've yet to touch a woman, so don't make stories to tarnish my reputation.”

Artemis did not believe a word he said. Scrutinizing Dwayne's lower torso, he teased, “You've been pursuing Victoria for a couple of years now, haven't you? So how's your progress? You should sleep with her, get her pregnant, and seal the deal.”

His remark rendered Dwayne speechless.

Artemis then turned his attention to the leave application and muttered, “Barbara. If I'm not mistaken, Tempest Entertainment under Luther Group spent three hundred million to brand and market Barbara as the international child star, right? She was even a nominee for Oscars' Best Child Actor Award this year.”

Artemis still thought the name rang a bell. Susan Jefferson. Susan Jefferson? I'm sure I must have heard
