Chapter 761 Testing the Medicine
Bailey held his head and fiercely kissed his handsome face several times.
“Alright, since you're being so honest, I'll help clear up your confusion. This is a life-extending medicine, but to be
honest, I don't quite understand the specific principles behind it either. That old man had spent most of his life
researching and finally came up with this invention, which didn't seem so easy to understand. I soaked a rabbit,
drained of all its blood, in the potion. Despite having not a single drop of blood left in its body, the rabbit clung to life
and didn't die. So, I guess this medicinal herb can prolong life.”
Then continued, “Probably, Dr. White's final thoughts were the same as mine - to detoxify by exchanging blood.
That's why he researched and developed this herb, so that people wouldn't die immediately after losing blood.”
The smile on Artemis' face gradually grew stronger. As long as there was a chance to survive and a possibility of
living, he was willing to give it a try.
“Alright, I'll let you draw my blood tonight. Let's give this method a try and see if it works.” Bailey glared at him.
“Do you think this is a game? Just saying you want to try it out? I've only tested it on rabbits, not on humans. So, I'm
not quite sure. If all the blood in your body is drained, this medicine would be useless for you. Wouldn't that mean
certain death for you?”
Artemis' thoughts stirred, and he immediately became alert.
Could it be that this woman is trying to risk her life? If that's the case, I might as well bear the suffering myself.
After all, if she died, he would immediately follow her in death. If she didn't die, and he tested the medicine instead,
he wouldn't die either. So, he felt there was absolutely no need for her to suffer.
“Then you should try it on a few more animals and see if they all come back to life. If they do, there's no need for
us to hesitate. After all, we're facing death either way, and it would be a blessing if we could survive.”
Bailey nodded with a smile, but she had other plans in her mind. The anatomical structure of animals was different
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfrom that of humans. Just because an experiment was successful on animals, it didn't necessarily mean it would be
successful on humans.
So, they still had to use living people for experiments. She couldn't bring herself to sacrifice others for her own
benefit, nor could she let Artemis take the risk. She had no choice but to try it herself.
“It's getting late. Let's go back and rest for now. We'll talk about it tomorrow.”
Artemis let out a silent sigh. It seemed his guess was right; this woman truly intended to try the medicine herself.
How could he bear to see her suffer like this? After leaving the laboratory, the two of them walked along the
corridor toward the Luther residence.
As they were about to reach the Luther residence, Artemis suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look
at her, and leisurely said, “Bailey, if you have to personally handle things like testing medicine, doesn't that make
me somewhat useless?”
The smile on Bailey's face stiffened, realizing that he had figured out her thoughts. The next moment, she hurriedly
reached into her pocket, attempting to use a stupefying drug to knock him out.
Artemis was already prepared, so how could he let her succeed? In a flash, he moved closer to her, grabbing her
arm with one hand and placing the other on the back of her head. Bailey was subdued by him, realizing that he
wanted to knock her out.
She quickly spoke up, “Artemis, don't hit me. I was wrong. I really, really know I was wrong. Let me bleed you, and
then observe your condition. If it were someone else, I wouldn't feel at ease.”
Artemis shook his head, leaned down to kiss her forehead, and said softly, “This process is too cruel for you. It's
better not to watch. Tarragon has so many doctors. They will take good care of me. Go and have a good sleep, and
when you wake up, everything will be fallen into place.”
Bailey's face suddenly darkened, and her smile completely disappeared.
She glared at him fiercely, gritting her teeth and said, “I haven't gotten over you feeding me memory loss pill last
time. If you dare to knock me out, I'll never forgive you in this lifetime.”
Artemis smiled, his gentle gaze sweeping across her pretty face.
“Bailey, no matter the outcome, I'll always be by your side. You don't need to worry; I won't forcefully keep you in
this world anymore. If I leave, I'll be waiting for you on the road to heaven.”
Tears rolled down Bailey's cheeks as she cried and shouted, “Artemis, don't do this, please don't. Let me face it with
you, okay? Can we do that?”
Artemis smiled faintly. A wave of pain spread from the back of her neck, her vision gradually blurred, and in the
moment before her consciousness completely vanished, she mustered all her strength and roared, “Artemis, you
better live well for me!”
As the last syllable fell, she slowly closed her eyes.
Fortunately, this guy didn't have the audacity to consider erasing her memory again, otherwise she would have
been absolutely disgusted. Artemis looked at the woman who had fainted in his arms, the smile on the corner of his
lips deepening by a few degrees.
He attempted to lift her up horizontally, but unfortunately, his body was extremely weak. After trying several times,
he eventually gave up due to his lack of strength.
“I'll do it.” Zeke's voice came from behind. Artemis handed Bailey over to him.
Zeke frowned and asked, “What's going on here? Why did you knock her out for no reason?”
Artemis nodded and recounted the events that had taken place. After hearing this, Zeke's anger simmered.
“Testing medicine? This girl is really something. I've never seen anyone as lively as her. Artemis, you better stay
alive, or I'll grind your bones to dust.”
After a moment of silence, Artemis said leisurely, “If I survive, we'll start everything anew. But if I'm unfortunate
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmenough to die, please, Zeke, let her sleep forever. Don't let her open her eyes again, I don't want her to face such
pain. As for the Luther family, please take good care of them in the future. Simon has great potential. With a little
guidance, he should be able to shoulder the responsibility of the Luther family. There are three more children, and
although they have the care of their grandparents, uncles, and aunts, they still need the love of their dear uncle. I
hope you can pay more attention to them and let...”
“That's enough.”
Zeke turned his face slightly away and said with a tearful voice, “Live well, and I'll acknowledge you as my brother-
in-law in the future. But if you die, I will never admit that you are the son-in-law of the Shurmer family.”
Artemis lowered his head slightly, and after a long silence, he squeezed out a single word through gritted teeth,
“Fine.”
Early next morning, Bailey gradually regained consciousness from her stupor. Gazing at the crystal chandelier
above her head, she was momentarily lost in thought. The moment her consciousness returned, she gently
laughed.
I had woken up. Does this mean that Artemis had made it through the night?
Because with that man's temperament, he would never let her wake up alone to face the pain.
She guessed that he had instructed Zeke that if he couldn't wake up, Zeke should use medicine to let her sleep
forever.
Click!
The door handle turned, and the door opened. Zeke walked in, carrying a tray.
“Bay, you're awake.”
Bailey pulled back the covers, preparing to get out of bed, but suddenly her legs felt weak and powerless, forcing
her to fall toward the ground. Zeke quickly reached out to steady her.
“Be careful! You're a grown-up, why are you still so restless?” Bailey grabbed his wrist and asked, “Zeke, how is
Artemis doing?”
