Chapter 991 You Have Gone Too Far
In truth, Bailey just wanted to tease him and see how anxious he would be.
However, she was utterly stunned when he swiftly pulled his pants down.
By the time she reacted, he had already...
Seeing his robust figure, she instinctively turned her head away.
Artemis said with a hint of helplessness, “Bay, you're a renowned doctor. You should be able to tell if I
had—”
“Shut up.” Bailey didn't let him finish, cutting him off with a cold voice.
After her roar, her eyes gradually turned red.
What virtues and abilities did she possess to have won this man's profound love?
He was an elite, the best of the best, standing at the pinnacle of power and looking down upon all
beings. Pride, integrity, and valor meant everything to him.
Right now, he was willing to abandon all his dignity just to make her believe him.
He... is so annoying! Is he blind? Can't he tell that I'm just teasing him?
Upon seeing her tears, Artemis quickly rushed over to hold her in his arms.
“Bay, I swear I didn't touch her. Please don't cry. I know you won't believe anything I say, so why don't
you check for yourself to see if I—”
“Shut your mouth!” Bailey roared, then raised her arm and fiercely pounded his chest.
“When did I ever say I didn't believe you? Who gave you the right to trample on your own dignity like
that? Artemis, you're deliberately trying to make me angry, you jerk.”
Artemis was stunned for three seconds. When he finally came to his senses, he embraced her joyfully.
“Bay, you believe me, don't you?”
Bailey cried for a bit before smiling.
“You're my man. If I don't believe you, should I believe the words of an imposter instead?”
An imposter?
“What do you mean?”
Bailey remained silent, leading him to sit down on the couch. As she fixed his disheveled clothes, she
spoke. “If I'm not mistaken, Eunice must be impersonating Blaze. I thought about it, and I think it's
unlikely that Kurt would so readily hand over the real Blaze. After all, she's his lifeline. If he loses her,
his life would be in constant danger. Half an hour ago, one of my subordinates sent me a message
saying that Faceless, the disguise master, is already in Gregan. I suspect it must be Kurt who invited
him over. When I went to the back garden, I was merely suspicious. But after exchanging a few words
with Cameron and seeing his blind faith in Blaze, my doubts grew. Sure enough, he had been
subjected to Eunice's art of perfumery. Now, he is completely convinced by that imposter. Her diving
into the water was likely a ploy to lure you closer to her and then use a sedative fragrance on you. In
fact, she did get what she wanted, successfully fooling you into believing she was me. However, she
was overly confident. After all, how could my man possibly be swayed by a fake?”
Artemis fiercely embraced her, his voice hoarse as he said, “Bailey, you had gone too far this time.”
Bailey leaned into his arms, giggling. “You were the dumb one. What made you think I wouldn't believe
you? You deserved it.”
Artemis was so angry that he was twitching, but he was helpless against her.
What else could he do to his woman other than pamper her?
Seeing him completely infuriated, Bailey quickly tilted her head back to kiss his thin lips.
After trying to make him happy and seeing that his anger was mostly gone, she finally spoke. “All right
already. Isn't it enough that I already know I was wrong? Come on, you can't blame me for this. It was
clearly you who has been going around getting lucky with romantic encounters, forcing her to take
desperate measures. If I didn't play along with her and have a falling out with you, the secret would
have been exposed. How were we going to handle Kurt when that happened? Think about it. Once
Kurt thinks that we really see Eunice as Blaze, he'll surely let his guard down. When that time comes,
wouldn't our chances of rescuing Blaze be much higher?”
Artemis glared at her.
Acting is fine since it's not like I would refuse to cooperate with her. At the very least, she could have
given me a hint so that I had some idea of what was going on. Who the heck could put up with what
she did?
“This is a one-time thing. There must not be a next time, understand?”
Bailey hummed in acknowledgment.
This jerk is beginning to act smug now that he has gotten his way. I gave him an inch, and he took a
mile. Does he really think I'm a pushover?
“All right, as long as you ensure that your pesky admirers don't bother me, I'll behave. Otherwise... I'll
come up with even more annoying ways to teach you a lesson. I'll be sure to give you one h*ll of a
scare if this happens again.”
Artemis suddenly felt deflated.
Eunice likes me?
Just the thought of it made him feel sick.
“Why don't you ruin my face? Once it's ruined, no one should bother about me anymore.”
Bailey reached out and pinched his face, teasingly saying, “If this divinely handsome face of yours gets
ruined, I'm the one who stands to lose the most, you know.”
The man was speechless.
Artemis scooped her up in his arms and strode toward the bed.
Bailey knew what he wanted to do, and she smiled faintly.
She loved seeing him so captivated by her, as if she were the only woman in the world and he only had
eyes for her.
“Artemis, don't be foolish in the future. I will always believe you, because I know that even if the whole
world betrays me, you will never betray me.”
Artemis was deeply moved by her words, a surge of emotions rising within him. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Right now, all he wanted to do was to love her to bits!
Meanwhile, inside the guest room of the mansion on the east side, Cameron ordered the female doctor
to administer a sedative to “Blaze,” gradually calming her agitated emotions.
She wasn't asleep and was staring blankly at the ceiling above her. Her gaze was scattered, unable to
find any focus.
Cameron held her hand in one of his while his other hand gently traced her pale face.
“Blaze, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I failed to protect you properly, allowing you to be...”
Worried that his words might upset her, he abruptly held his tongue.
“Don't worry. I will make sure Artemis gives you an explanation.”
Eunice rolled her eyes, a glint of somber light flashing in her gaze.
The explanation she wanted was not something Artemis could provide.
But that was okay. As long as she could drive a wedge between him and Bailey, her chances of rising
to power would be even greater.
What she didn't realize was that while she was secretly rejoicing, thinking that Bailey and Artemis were
completely finished, they were in their love nest, deeply loving each other in the most direct way until
they became one.
In the study of the countryside castle, Kurt burst into hearty laughter upon receiving the message from
Eunice.
That vile wench is quite cunning. She actually managed to ruin Artemis.
With this kind of incident happening, he figured Artemis and Bailey probably wouldn't have time to
meddle in the White family's affairs anymore.
With Cameron being occupied by that imposter, he would probably be too busy to do anything for a
while as well.
Without help, what difference would it make even if that old geezer with the last name White regained
power?
He had the family seal. When the time came, with a wave of his arm and a call to arms, would those
cowardly, self-serving nobodies dare to defy him to the death?
He thought they would be more than happy to switch sides if they were offered benefits. Perhaps they
could even be used to turn the tables on Wilfred.
“Tell everyone that Operation Extermination officially begins now. At the latest, I want to regain control
of the entire family the day after tomorrow.”
“Yes.”
The next day, Bailey went to see “Blaze.”
This time, miraculously, she wasn't turned away at the door.
