Chapter 895
Chapter 895 Foolish And Clueless
The voice of Artemis came from the doorway.
Simon abruptly turned around, hastily exining, “Artemis, I''m not coveting your position. All I need is
one month from you. Once I''ve gotten myself a wife, I''ll immediately return the position to you.”
Artemis stroked his chin, appearing hesitant on the surface, but inside, he was overjoyed.
My wife is indeed clever. With a simple trick, she managed to toss out this hot potato.
“All right, since the public still doesn''t know that I''m alive, let''s have Mom and Dad announce that you''ll
be the head of the family. Now that I''ve given you the position of the head of the Luther family, you
must work hard and not let down my expectations of you.”
Simon got what he wished for, and he was as happy as a kid.
“I''ll go and talk to Catherine again.”
After saying that, he dashed out of the study.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Bailey copsed onto the couch, clutching her stomach as she
burst into heartyughter.
That guy, Simon, is really unlucky to have such a brother and sister-inw. I can''t wait to see the look
on that guy''s face when he finds out he''s been duped. It''ll be entertaining.
Artemis strolled over to the couch, reached out, pulled her up, and held her in his arms.
“You''ll have to deal with what happens next when that kid goes berserk.”
Bailey wasughing without a care in the world in his arms.
“He''s so foolish and clueless. Even though you''re both sons of the Luther family, how can the gap
between you two be so vast?”
Artemis slightly narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint shing through his gaze.
She said that Simon was both foolish and clueless and also mentioned the huge difference between
the two brothers. Isn''t she indirectly calling me an old cunning fox, then?
“My dear, since I haven''t given you any attention all morning, are you feeling neglected? If so, let''s
head to our room and spend some quality time together.”
After he finished speaking, he swept her off her feet and headed straight for the door.
Bailey struggled in his arms. “Can you not be so ridiculous in broad daylight? Put me down. I still need
to go to theb to research the method of getting rid of the parasitic fragrance with ze. Put me
down.”
Artemis not only ignored her but also quickened his pace.
Bailey started to kick and punch. “If you don''t put me down, I''ll get angry. I really will.”
Artemis couldn''t help butugh. “I''m carrying you to theb. What did you think I was doing? You''re the
one who''s got the wrong idea, but you insist on ming me. Go ahead and shout. Let''s see who ends
up embarrassed.”
She was speechless.
This prick!
After rushing out of the main house, Simon headed straight for the infirmary.
As he passed by the garden, he saw Catherine picking flower petals in the yard. Changing his course,
he headed straight toward her.
As he approached, he wheezed, saying, “Woman, I''m about to be the head of the Luther family.
Marry me, and I''ll make you the matriarch of the Luther family. Isn''t that better than going back to take
over that useless position?”
Catherine slowly raised her head. Looking at the fool who was staring at her, she asked, “What does
your role as the head of the Luther family have to do with my return to the Rogers family to seed as
the head of the family? I''ll live my life, and you''ll live yours. We won''t interfere with each other''s lives.”
Riled up, Simon gripped her arm, still panting as he said, “I know women have a strong sense of vanity,
so I specifically took my sister-inw''s advice. I''ve taken over the head of the household position from
my brother. If you marry me, I''ll make you the matriarch of the Luther family and will fulfill all your
demands.”
At that, Catherine looked at him like she was looking at an idiot.
If I''m not mistaken, this fool must have been tricked by Bailey. That couple doesn''t want to be in charge
of the household, so they dump the responsibility onto this fool. This idiot is amusing. Not only is he
oblivious, but he also thinks his elder brother and sister-inw are so good to him. Jeez. How did Luna
end up having such a dumb father?
Regardless, she couldn''t be bothered to let him know.
I''ll let him continue having his grandiose dreams.
“I want to be a queen. Can you topple a country for me and support me in bing a queen?”
Simon was taken aback for a moment, then said in a daze, “Being the matriarch of the Luther family
isn''t bad either. I can have them treat you like a queen.”
With a cool demeanor, Catherine stuffed a handful of freshly picked flowers into his arms and said,
“The third room on the left on the second floor of the infirmary. Take this bouquet and propose to her,
and she will surely say yes. You two can get your marriage certificate this afternoon. I wish you both
happiness.”
After she finished speaking, she picked up the flower basket and walked toward the exit.
Subconsciously, Simon grabbed her arm, but upon encountering her cautioning gaze, he quickly let go.
Yesterday, her flower pollen had him out of it for half a day.
He had no desire to go through that again.
“Are you really going back to be the head of the Rogers family? I''ve told you, being the matriarch of the
Luther family would be much more prestigious.”
With a raise of Catherine''s eyebrows, a mischievous glint shed in her eyes.
Since his older brother and sister-inw have set him up already, I might as well give him an extra
push.
“Let''s talk about it when you be the head of the Luther family.”
She said this for two reasons: first, to make himmit to it, and second, to make him think she was a
gold digger and dislike her.
But the oue was a little unexpected.
“All right, it''s settled then. After I be the head of the Luther family, I will go to the Rogers family to
talk about our marriage. If your father dares to disagree, I will use the power of the Luther family to
disrupt all your family''s businesses.”
She was speechless.
Oh, he doesn''t mind me being materialistic? This guy is actually pretty adorable. It''s a shame that we
aren''t destined to be together.
After much consideration, she was still adamant about returning and assuming the role of the family
head, then using her authority to retrieve the fragrance manual.
What''s the problem with spending the rest of my life in the Rogers family for the sake of my daughter?
There''s no one else for me to worry or care about anyway.
At the Saviors'' branch, Astrid was in the bathroom of the bedroom, on the phone with Shaun.
Shaun said, “Tell him you want to go out and clear your head. Then, lead him into the valley in the
eastern suburb, where I have set up an ambush. I''m certain I can capture him there.”
After some thought, Astrid spoke. “I can do as you ask, but you have to keep your promise and bring
Caridee over for the exchange.”
“All right, I know you despise that little wretch to the core. We are partners, so it''s only natural that I do
what you want.”
After speaking, Shaun immediately ended the call.
Astrid tightened her grip on the phone.
Although she was reluctant to let go of that sweet man, she knew it was all just an illusion.
All his tenderness is reserved for that wretched Caridee. The day he discovers the truth, he will surely
break my heart. Rather than obsessing over something that''s not there, it''s better to trade him for
Caridee.
The person she truly hated was just that despicable person.
In the study next door, Veikko leanedzily on the couch, his slender fingers gently tapping on the
armrest.
He had overheard the entire conversation between Astrid and Shaun.
So, you''re finally making your move? Very well.
He was certain that Shaun wouldn''t take Caridee to the agreed location, so all he needed to do was to

contact Bailey to rescue Caridee at his ce.
The call connected sessfully. He briefed Bailey on the situation, then asked, “I''ll go after Shaun, and
you go save Caridee. Does that sound good?”
