Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 754

Caridee picked up the coffee in front of her and took a few sips.

“Nothing. You might have misheard since your Chanaean isn't that good. By the way, when is International Socialite Club happening? I have some urgent matters to deal with and can't stay in Moranta for too long,” said Caridee.

Astrid noticed Caridee was unwilling to tell, so she did not press further.

Smiling, Astrid answered, “In three days. By then, many nobles will attend. Since the man you liked has abandoned you, why not shift your focus and take a look at other men?”

Caridee smiled without saying a word. In her eyes, there was only Veikko, and no other man could fit in.

“By the way, I heard that International Socialite Club this time is sponsored by the Hoffman family. I wonder if Juliana, the eldest daughter of the Hoffman family, will attend,” remarked Caridee.

Astrid looked at her with slight confusion and asked, “Do you know Juliana?” As soon as Astrid finished asking, she slapped her forehead like she suddenly remembered something.

Then, she said, “Look at me. I forgot the most important thing! Bailey is your future sister-in-law, and Juliana is her apprentice. It's not surprising that you know her.”

At that point, her gaze suddenly became complex. Astrid lowered her voice to add, “According to reliable sources, Juliana has violated the rules. I'm not quite sure what exactly happened, but I know she's been placed under house arrest. Don't go around asking about her, and be careful not to bring

trouble upon yourself.”

Caridee furrowed her brow.

Did Juliana break the rules? Why have I never heard Bailey mention it before?

Then, she responded, “Okay, I understand. Don't worry. I know it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble. Let's meet three days later then. I'll head back to the hotel to rest now. I've been going around and haven't slept well in a while.”

“Well then, take good care of yourself. If you need anything, just give me a call,” said Astrid.

Caridee stood up from her chair, got her handbag, and walked out of the private room. It appeared that something significant had happened within the Hoffman family. It would be wise for her to be cautious in Moranta.

As she passed the corner of the corridor, her pace was too quick, causing her to bump into a man walking toward her from the opposite direction.

“Ah!” Caridee let out a gasp while falling straight backward.

Realizing her back and the back of her head was about to hit the ground, Caridee quickly closed her eyes in fear. Three seconds later, the expected pain did not come.

A strong arm suddenly appeared around Caridee's waist. In the next second, she crashed into a broad and sturdy chest. A strong scent of alcohol assailed Caridee, and she instinctively wanted to resist.

“Sorry, I-I didn't mean to. I didn't hurt you, did I?”

As Caridee spoke, she looked up at the other person. With just one glance, she was stunned. The light in the corridor was not very bright. When it shone on the man's figure, Caridee could barely make out the vague features of his face.

Caridee murmured, “V-Veikko...”

Veikko?

The man gently furrowed his brow. Basking in Caridee's enchanting scent, he felt the hormones stir wildly within him.

He noticed Caridee was a delicate and innocent beauty, instantly piquing his interest. He had encountered many women over the years, but Caridee was the first one who managed to capture his interest at first glance.

“Since you've bumped into my arms, why not stay and keep me company?”

After saying that, the man put his arm around Caridee's shoulder and dragged her toward the private room. Caridee suddenly became anxious. If she let a strange man take her into a room, her life would be ruined forever. Thinking of the impending disaster, she suddenly tensed up.

Then, she opened her mouth to bite at his wrist. A sudden intense pain struck the man, and he sent Caridee flying with a swing. Caridee learned some skills from Bailey. The moment she was pushed, she constantly changed her posture and landed steadily on the ground.

In the next moment, Caridee took off running with all her might, disappearing in a flash.

“Darn it, she's quite fierce. How dare she bite me. Just wait and see how I'll deal with her.”

After mumbling, the man instinctively reached for his phone. At that moment, the door to the private room behind him opened, and a young man walked out. It was Tucker.

“Mr. Carter, why are you standing at the door? A few beauties are inside waiting for you to join them for a drink,” said Tucker.

Shaun staggered a few steps back and stretched out his arm in front of Tucker. Tucker squinted at his bloody wrist, frowning as he asked, “Who bit you?”

Tucker suddenly let out a sinister laugh.

“Isn't this the territory of the Hoffman family? You should be able to help me find her.”

Tucker instantly understood his meaning and could not help but laugh.

“Of course. I'll have someone look into it right now. Once I find her, I'll make sure to bring her to you. By then, you can decide what to do with her.” NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Reaching out, Shaun patted Tucker on the shoulder and said, “You're smart. You're bound to achieve great things in the future. Then, I'll leave this matter to you. Since you consider me as your buddy, our cooperation can be settled right away.”

Tucker smiled faintly and invited Shaun into the private room. When Tucker turned around, a bodyguard hurriedly approached him.

“Mr. Tucker, I just saw that Mr. Carter bumped into a young girl. I specifically went to investigate and found out that she is... the third daughter of the Luther family, Caridee Luther,” said the bodyguard. Tucker raised his eyebrows.

Caridee Luther? The one related to Bailey? This is getting interesting. If I arranged for Shaun to sleep with Caridee, wouldn't the Luther family do everything they could to harm me? When the time comes, that fool will have no choice but to seek an alliance with me.

Then, Tucker ordered, “Find out where she's staying, and look into her schedule for the next few days.”

“Yes.”

After watching the black-clad bodyguard leave, Tucker revealed a sinister smile. The game was getting more exciting.

By getting the Carter family involved, Tucker would gain another powerful ally. Caridee's sudden appearance was indeed perfectly timed. It was as if the heavens themselves were assisting Tucker.

In the laboratory at Tarragon Headquarters, Bailey was working on a pile of documents.

Those were all printed according to the books Maerlus left behind. Maerlus had been studying Soul Reaper for most of his life, so he must have left some tips behind.

Bailey would find something eventually. After searching for an entire day, she finally found the answer she had been looking for. It was a handwritten letter left by Maerlus, documenting some of his insights on Soul Reaper. The letter wrote:

Soul Reaper is a poison concocted from over a hundred precious toxic ingredients. Its most notable characteristic is that it's difficult to detect once it enters the human body. The vector will inexplicably cough up blood, and die within a month. The poison thrives in human blood, which serves as its nurturing ground. Once separated from the blood, its toxicity will be significantly reduced.

“The poison thrives in human blood, which serves as its nurturing ground. Once separated from the blood, its toxicity will be significantly reduced,” murmured Bailey, and a faint smile slowly appeared at the corner of her lips.

Artemis, I think I've found a way to save your life. Although the journey is perilous, there's hope for survival. Even if the chance is slim, we still have to try. We can't foolishly wait for death.

Crack!

The door handle turned, and Artemis walked in from outside, holding a tray in one hand and a washboard in the other.
