Chapter 785 Beware of My Husband
Bailey chuckled softly.
“Thank you both, I know you treat me like your own daughter and don't want me to leave with him at such a young
age. However, he is my heart, and life is truly hard without a heart. Don't be sad. You still have Simon and Caridee.
Max, Zayron, and Susan are also your beloved grandchildren, and blood is thicker than water. They will take good
care of you and show their filial piety on our behalf.”
Felicity cried sadly. Tears streamed down her face as she shook her head incessantly.
“No! No, no, no! No matter how much we love and care for the children, we can never replace you as their mother.
Bay, listen to me. Can we face this obstacle together and not give up on our lives so easily?”
Bailey laughed and said, “Mom, don't get too agitated. I won't leave with him right away. I want to personally
avenge him. Maybe after some time, I'll come to my senses and change my mind. I'll live well for him, raise our
children, and support our parents.”
Felicity hurriedly said, “Alright, alright, I'll remember what you said. You're a well-behaved child, and I know you
won't go back on your word. Avenging Artemis is not just your responsibility, but also that of my Luther family. Hurry
and take him back to Hallsbay, and we'll sit down and discuss this matter properly.”
“Alright, I'll head to Moranta first, save my future sister-in-law, and then immediately return to Hallsbay.”
“Alright. It's settled then. You must come back alive. I will be standing at the door every day, waiting and hoping.”
“Alright.”
The sound of the phone beeping sounded through the phone, indicating that Bailey had ended the call. She was
afraid that if she continued hearing Felicity's voice, she wouldn't be able to continue acting because she felt guilty
inside.
Felicity truly loved and cared for her, yet she deceived her, causing her to endure the pain of losing a child. Even
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthough it was just acting, she could clearly sense the old lady's sadness and despair through the phone. Felicity
leaned into Gerald's embrace and cried uncontrollably.
“How could this have happened? Artemis held such great power, and there was hardly anyone who could rival him
in the whole world. How could he just...”
Gerald closed his eyes heavily and said in a broken voice, “It's easy to dodge an open attack, but hard to guard
against a hidden threat. In his position, glory and danger coexist.”
As a powerful figure in the Luther family, he was already in a precarious situation. After he also controlled Tarragon,
how could he not become everyone's target?
In a world where the strong preyed on the weak, only one rule governed survival.
Might made right, and the defeated must pay the price. It was the law of the jungle. Artemis lost and ultimately paid
for his defeat with his life. It was fate, and one had to accept it. Felicity cried even more sadly.
“What should Bay do? They loved each other so much. Without Artemis, how will she live her life?”
Gerald sighed continuously. Perhaps the greatest kindness he could show her was to let her go with Artemis into the
night.
However, their several grandchildren had already lost their father, and they could not afford to lose their mother as
well. As a grandfather, he had his own personal motives. He hoped to save Bailey's life so that their children could
experience the fullness of a mother's love.
“If it really does not work, then we should try to stop her from seeking revenge. As long as the person who
poisoned Artemis remains alive, she will continue to live with determination. As time goes by, her wounds will
gradually heal, and she will slowly learn to let go. Perhaps, she could finally get out of her misery.”
Felicity's eyes lit up, and she stopped crying.
“That's a good idea. Let's do it. If she wants to kill Sofie, we'll secretly stop her. We can stall for a year or so before
discussing our next step, but we must keep her alive.”
“Alright, I'll take over the Luther Group tomorrow and secretly deploy people to hinder Bailey's progress. Once she
gradually accepts everything and decides to live on, we'll kill Sofie to avenge our son.”
“Alright. Let's arrange it this way.”
...
The news of the Tarragon leader's death by poisoning spread quickly around the world. Different factions were
eagerly anticipating their chance to act, all waiting for the perfect opportunity to seize a portion of the vast entity
known as Tarragon, thereby bolstering their own power.
In the Tarragon Headquarters. Inside the master's study. Artemis held Bailey as they leaned on the sofa together.
After finishing the phone call with Gerald and Felicity, Bailey's eyes were red and swollen, and she felt somewhat
upset.
“Artemis, I feel guilty. I can deceive anyone, but I really can't bear to deceive your parents. People often say that
the greatest pain in the world is the pain of losing a child. At their age, they still have to endure such torment
because of me. I...”
At that point, her voice began to choke up, and she just couldn't get the words out anymore. Artemis tenderly held
her head in his hands, softly pressing his lips against her eyebrows and the corners of her eyes, gently kissing away
the tears that stained her face.
“I'm sorry. I made things difficult for you. However, don't worry. They won't feel too upset because they have the
children accompanying them. At most, they'll be upset for a while. Let's quickly take care of Sofie and then go back
to apologize to them. Once they know I'm alive, they won't complain, but will be happy instead.”
Bailey reached out to embrace him. Just as she was about to kiss the corner of his mouth, an untimely light cough
sounded. Zeke turned his face away slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That's enough, you two. There are more people in the room. So, what should we do next?” Bailey glared at him
and muttered, “What a buzzkill. Can't he see we're being affectionate and give us some space?”
Upon hearing this, Zeke couldn't help but laugh out loud. He abruptly stood up from the sofa and walked out,
getting ready to leave. Bailey hurriedly grabbed him and chuckled, “Zeke, I was wrong. You're a generous person,
please don't take offense at my petty actions. I've made up my mind. The day after tomorrow, I'll set off for
Moranta to save my sister-in-law. Are you happy about it?”
Zeke reached out and flicked her forehead twice forcefully. Upon seeing the situation, Artemis quickly embraced
her protectively in his arms.
“Zeke, her mind isn't working too well right now. Please go easy on her and don't turn her into a complete fool, or
else we'll be the ones dealing with the aftermath.”
Bailey nestled in her man's arms, giggling, and couldn't help but provoke Zeke, “If you had recognized me a year
ago, perhaps you could have shown off your power as my elder brother. However, you can't do that now, because I
have a husband to protect me. If you hit me, be careful. My husband might beat you to death. He's really tough.”
Artemis couldn't help but smile. He gently rubbed the back of her head, and said helplessly, “I haven't even married
you yet, and you've already offended Zeke terribly in my name. If he tries to obstruct me when I propose, resulting
in a miserable and pitiable situation, I'll need you to intervene and persuade him, taking care not to aggravate him
to the point of annoyance.” Bailey was fearless.
She scoffed and said, “It's as if he can marry a wife without my consent. Don't forget, he's going to marry my
disciple. According to tradition, he must formally ask me for permission as I'm her master.”
Zeke was at a loss for words. ... Moranta. In the Saviors branch. Caridee sneaked out of her bedroom, ready to
head to the kitchen in search of something to eat. As she walked through the corridor, she overheard a few female
bodyguards discussing the Tarragon. Out of curiosity, she stopped in her tracks.
“Have you heard? The Tarragon leader has been poisoned and died.”
“This news has already spread, so naturally, I've heard about it.”
