Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 838

At the mountaintop, Artemis leaned against a tree trunk, answering a call on his phone.

It was Holden who called, reporting about Sofie's movements.

“Okay, got it. We'll act according to plan, lure her into the headquarters, then activate the trap to wipe them out.”

“All right. I'll go and make the arrangements now. By the way, what about Wendy? When are we going to rescue her? Once Sofie enters Tarragon Headquarters and realizes she'd been tricked, she'd undoubtedly be furious. When she uses Wendy to threaten me at that time, I might not be able to make the decision to let Wendy die with her.”

Artemis gave a light murmur of acknowledgment, saying leisurely, “I understand, so don't worry. Bailey and I will rescue her for you. However, now isn't the right time yet. If Sofie were to find out that Wendy is missing, she would never fall for the trap. Although a battle could be waged at the foot of the mountain, it would only result in a bloody fight with casualties too heavy to bear. It's simply not worth it. Thus, we could only rescue Wendy after she'd fallen into the trap. Do you get me?”

“Yes. I'm counting on you, then. Five hours later, Sofie would launch an attack on the headquarters alongside all her subordinates. Make sure you seize the opportunity.”

“Okay.”

After ending the call, Artemis turned to Bailey, who was gazing at the mountains through binoculars. Raising an eyebrow, he asked, “Once Sofie enters the headquarters, how confident are you that you can rescue Wendy?”

With a cold smile, Bailey said lightly, “If it were at the foot of the mountain, there might be a fifty percent chance of success. But once Sofie enters the headquarters, all her men will be gathered together. Trying to rescue Wendy then would be beyond difficult.”

Artemis walked over and wrapped his arms around her shoulders, coaxing gently, “We can't take any risks, Bay. Let's just arrange for a suicide attacker to take Wendy's place. Sofie is now commandeering her men, so she doesn't have time and energy to pay attention to Wendy. It's truly a perfect opportunity for us to save her.”

Bailey remained silent, looking up at him with her lips pursed into a thin line carrying a sense of arrogance.

Artemis leaned in and kissed her, then continued, “When we're at the foot of the mountain, we can't have Wendy break free from Sofie's control. But after climbing up the mountain, we can't guarantee with absolute certainty that we'll be able to rescue her. The only solution is to find someone to take her place. We both know that Holden is a man of principle. He agreed to help us trap and kill Sofie, so we must help him rescue his woman in return. If we fail to do so, he might really give in to Sofie's blackmailing. Do you know the consequences of letting Sofie go?”

Bailey could not help but let out a bitter laugh.

She certainly knew the consequences of letting Sofie go.

Once that madwoman escaped, she would surely strike at them hard.

“Is there really no other way that we must sacrifice a person to save another?”

Artemis shook his head, “If we want to save Wendy at the foot of the mountain, we must find someone to replace her. Otherwise, Sofie won't fall for the trap when she has no bargaining chip.”

Bailey slowly closed her eyes. She fell silent for a moment, then murmured, “Go and make arrangements for a suicide attacker. I'm going into the cabin to create a hyper-realistic mask.”

“Okay. Try to hurry as much as you can. We don't have much time left.”

“Will do.”

In the small town, people came and went from the small farmyard continuously, reporting the latest search updates to Sofie inside the house.

Upon learning that the mangled dead body of Dominic had been found beneath the cliff, she was finally able to rest easy.

The man was exceedingly ambitious, so if he were to live, he would always be a threat.

“We're now just one step away, Ms. Carr. Once we conquer Tarragon, you'll become the most powerful woman in the world.”

“Exactly! Tarragon is the largest underground force internationally. If you become the leader, you'll be above countless others.”

“Allow me to congratulate you in advance on your overwhelming victory, Ms. Carr!”

The high-ranking individuals under Sofie's command all lauded her one after another, praising her to the heavens.

A middle-aged man on the lower left nodded and said, “Ms. Carr, Mr. Philip's secret order is to kill Holden. We can't let him escape from Tarragon and eventually aid Mr. Hoffman.”

That man was sent by Philip and brought along half of the forces of the second branch of the Hoffman family to assist Sofie.

Before he left, Philip had instructed him to find a way to persuade Sofie to get rid of Holden.

Actually, that was also a precautionary measure.

After all, Holden was Wendy's man, and Wendy was Raymond's eldest daughter.

If they were to stand united against the enemy, it would be very difficult to them.

Upon hearing that, Sofie burst into raucous laughter.

She reached out and patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder in assurance. “Don't worry. Holden isn't only a major concern for your employer but also a stumbling block to me. I'd never allow him, his woman, and his relatives to leave Tarragon Headquarters alive.”

At the same time, Bailey and Artemis blended seamlessly in disguise among the men in black who were coming and going at the town entrance.

They successfully infiltrated Sofie's territory.

“Disguise yourself as someone delivering food and take Wendy to the secondary courtyard on the east side, Bay. I'll keep the guards at the entrance occupied to buy you some time.”

“All right, understood. Be careful.”

A moment later, Bailey and the s arrived in front of the secondary courtyard on the east side, carrying several lunch boxes.

No sooner had the two of them appeared than they found themselves staring down the barrels of several guns.

“What are you doing? We're holding an important prisoner here. Stay away.” Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Bailey brandished the lunch boxes in front of the few men, saying lightly, “We're about to mount an attack up the mountain soon. The higher-ups had us come over to clean her up and feed her a full meal.”

The burly man in the lead was just about to refuse when his subordinate at the side hastily interjected, “Boss, the person inside is our biggest trump card. It's only natural for the higher-ups to send someone over to groom and dress her up to bring out her maximum value as a bargaining chip. Let's just allow these two people in. Otherwise, we'll all be in great trouble if we mess up Ms. Carr's plan.”

“Yes, exactly!” the few others seconded.

The burly man pondered for a moment. Then, he slowly stepped aside, saying, “I'll give you five

minutes. Make it quick.”

Bailey quickly agreed. Without delay, she shot forward, dragging the motionless suicide attacker along.

Once they were inside the courtyard, she lowered her voice and said, “I'm sorry, I had no other choice but to have you stay here in her stead. But rest assured that as long as there's a chance, I'll definitely find a way to rescue you. If not at the foot of the mountain, then it's when we're at the top.”

The suicide attacker bowed his head and said, “There's no need to feel guilty, Mrs. Luther. From the day we joined Tarragon and became suicide attackers, we've already put life and death out of our minds. Obeying orders and carrying out our duties is our sacred obligation. Even if it costs us our lives, we must fulfill the task entrusted to us by Mr. Luther.”

Bailey zipped her mouth, choosing not to continue speaking.

She felt that if she were to continue offering comfort, it would seem somewhat hypocritical of her.

She was the one who pushed him into the fiery pit in the first place, so there was no point in acting selfless and saintlike then.

The two of them traversed the corridor and entered a suite.

“Who's there?” came the cautious inquiry from Wendy inside.

Bailey hurried up to her, lowering her voice. “I'm Bailey. I'm here to rescue you.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Wendy's eyes.
