Chapter 989 Are You Worthy Of Bailey
Bay would usually refer to me as Mr. Luther, my full name, or simply by my family name. It seems like
she has never called me in that tone.
Seeing him in a daze, Eunice was worried that he might have noticed something. She quickly chided,
“Artemis, I've shamelessly invited you already. What are you still standing there for? Do you want me to
carry you or something?”
The moment Artemis picked her up, Eunice felt as if her heart was drenched in bliss.
She had yearned for three years, and finally, she found herself in the embrace she had longed for.
The thought of the impending intimacy stirred a rush of excitement in her blood.
My wish is about to come true soon.
Such bliss!
At the same moment, inside the main house's bedroom.
Bailey was leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, answering a phone call.
The call came from Catherine.
“Bay, we've almost finished handling things on our end. We should be able to return in a couple of
days, so there's no need for you all to worry.”
Bailey teased, “You shouldn't call me Bay anymore. You should call me sister-in-law instead.”
With a hint of frustration, Catherine ground her teeth and said, “I'm trying to have a serious
conversation with you, but you're not taking it seriously. Forget it. I won't bother you anymore. I have
other things to do, so I'll hang up now.”
With a chuckle, Bailey thought Catherine would end the call. But then, her voice came through the
speaker again, “By the way, Bay, be careful with Eunice.”
“It seems that woman has left Kurt. She's fiercely jealous, and her methods are ruthless. She won't let
us off the hook, so you must be very careful.”
Bailey furrowed her brows.
Indeed, Eunice was a troublemaker. The fact that she didn't manage to kill her last time was a constant
thorn in her heart.
It would be much better if Eunice took the initiative to come to her, as it would save Bailey a lot of
trouble.
Just as the call ended, the phone rang again.
Casting a glance, a new message popped up on the screen.
When she clearly read what was written, a wave of unease washed over her.
The disguise master, Faceless.
How did that woman end up in Gregan?
In the midst of her daze, a frantic inquiry echoed from the outdoor grounds below. “Bailey, has Blaze
come looking for you?”
Blaze?
The frown on Bailey's face deepened.
It's been three days since Blaze was rescued, but I haven't seen her yet. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
It's not like I decided not to visit her, but every time I tried, I was turned away at the door.
The former Blaze was lively and cheerful. Even though he faced many hardships, such a drastic
change shouldn't have occurred.
Although Blaze was constantly puzzled by this, she didn't say much.
Cameron was with her all the time. If she really had a problem, he should have noticed it earlier.
After clearing her mind of the jumbled thoughts, she said to Cameron, “No, wait for me downstairs. I'll
go with you to find her.”
“Okay.”
A moment later, the two of them converged.
While searching for her, Bailey subconsciously asked, “Cameron, don't you find Blaze quite strange?
Her personality seems to have undergone a drastic change.”
After Cameron heard her words, his handsome face immediately turned somber.
He had been intoxicated by Eunice's stupefying drug, and he held an unwavering trust in her.
Now that Bailey was doubting her, it was undoubtedly like poking a ticking timebomb. “Bailey, what do
you mean by that? She's been through so much and hasn't had a chance to recover. Isn't it normal for
her to isolate herself? If you were in the same situation, I believe you would react just like her, too
scared to face others, afraid of socializing.”
Bailey found his outrage somewhat amusing.
She had just made a couple of straightforward comments, so why was this guy that upset about it?
She found it very strange.
Before this, Cameron wouldn't act like this.
“Forget it. Pretend I didn't say anything. Let's find Blaze.”
While they were searching, they ran into a few housekeepers. They all said they hadn't seen Blaze, but
they did see Artemis. They informed the duo that the man was by the artificial lake.
Bailey took Cameron's hand and led him toward the lake, saying, “With Artemis joining us, we'll have
an extra pair of eyes to search and an extra hand to help.”
Cameron rolled his eyes. “Bailey, would it kill you not to see him for a few hours?”
“Of course.”
The two arrived by the artificial lake. The place was empty.
Just as Cameron was about to open his mouth to make a few sarcastic remarks, Bailey gestured at him
to keep quiet.
She always had good hearing, and it seemed like she could hear some murmuring voices.
Gradually, her gaze fell upon the flower bed not far away.
Through the dim light, she could vaguely see two people entangled within. Then, an inexplicable pain
struck her heart, a sense of foreboding overwhelming her.
Cameron followed her gaze and also noticed the man and woman entangled in the flower bed.
“That, that, that seems to be Artemis...”
Bailey naturally knew that it was Artemis. Even though she couldn't see his face, she loved him deeply.
Hence, his figure was firmly etched in her flesh and soul.
To boast a little, even in a vast sea of people, she could spot him at first glance.
Now that she saw him being entangled with another woman...
Without further ado, she strode toward the flower bed.
Eunice, peering through the gap in the man's inner arm, spotted two people running toward them from
a distance. She couldn't help but be taken aback.
A strong sense of unwillingness surged in her heart.
Just give me five more minutes, and I'll have this man completely wrapped around my fingers.
But now, she no longer had this opportunity because Bailey will not give her such a chance again.
What should I do?
Am I going to give up just like this?
After all the trouble I went through to get this opportunity, wouldn't everything go to waste if I gave up
now?
As she continued to ponder on the situation, a sinister plan surfaced in her mind.
She no longer paid attention to Artemis, who was motionless against her. She undressed herself,
creating a scene as if she had already been taken advantage of by him.
Then, she burst into tears. “Mr. Luther, you already have Bailey, so why are you still doing this to me? I
get along so well with Bailey, treating her like my own sister. You've forced yourself on me. How... How
am I supposed to face her now?”
As she began to cry, the man buried in her shoulder sobered up a bit.
In fact, he didn't do anything earlier.
Looking at that face that he yearned wholeheartedly, he found himself devoid of any interest. The
reason he buried his face in her shoulder was to reflect. He was wondering if he no longer loved Bailey.
If not, why didn't he feel anything after looking at her face?
This introspection lasted for several minutes. No matter how much Eunice tried to distract him during
that time, he remained unmoved.
After a while, Bailey and Cameron arrived before them.
Eunice was truly infuriated by that.
I almost got him!
Just by that few seconds.
But in the end, it still ended in failure.
Thud!
Cameron yanked Artemis to his feet, then fiercely punched the latter square in his handsome face.
Bailey stood quietly in the moonlight, silently observing Eunice lying on the lawn.
She was without a shred of clothing, and anyone with a slight loss of sanity would deem her as being
taken advantage of.
After she gazed at Eunice for a moment, her gaze fell back on Artemis.
After seeing observing his situation, her heart gradually grew cold.
Cameron was completely consumed by rage. He swung his fist and landed another heavy punch on
Artemis.
“Luther, what on earth have you done? Is this fair to me and Bailey?”
