Chapter 798 You Are Being Harsher To Me
Veikko's pupils contracted intensely, and raging flames burned in his dark gaze.
Only half of my mother's ashes were scattered? The other half is still in the hands of that asshole, Shaun? I can't
believe he placed my mother's ashes in a kennel. How could he? How dare he?
A dense murderous aura spread throughout the room. His fingers gripping the phone turned slightly pale, and the
exposed veins on his arm bulged out prominently.
It seems I was being too easy on him by crippling his genitalia that day. I should have chopped off his limbs, turning
him into a completely helpless cripple.
“What exactly are you trying to say?”
“It's pretty simple. I want to tell you that I asked someone to transport that wicked woman's ashes by air a few days
ago. They just arrived in Moranta today. If you want them back, you illegitimate brat, go to the private airport in the
eastern suburb. This is your last chance. Otherwise, once her ashes are in my hands, I will use them as fertilizer in a
flower bed so she can never rest in peace even after her death.”
The eastern suburb, the eastern suburb.
After remembering the name of the place, Veikko hung up right away. He knew that countless assassins must lurk
inside and outside the airport. Going there would be like entering a perilous place.
But I'm my mother's son. How could I sit and do nothing?
It was his mother who he depended on. She had suffered endless humiliation from the Carter family during her
lifetime. If he let someone insult her even after she had turned into ashes, it would make him an incompetent son.
Thus, he must go no matter whether what Shaun said was true or fake. Given Shaun's twisted values, it was entirely
possible that he would have taken half of the ashes back then to threaten Veikko in the future. If Veikko didn't go
today, he would be unfilial.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA grown man like him would not have the dignity to live on if he allowed someone to disrespect his mother's ashes.
After making up his mind, he put away his phone and left the room leisurely.
He instructed his personal bodyguard at the door, “I'm going out. Don't let anyone know. If I don't return by
evening, contact Ms. Jefferson and tell her that I might be in danger. Ask her to arrange the internal affairs within
the Saviors as soon as possible to avoid any internal conflicts.” The personal bodyguard looked at him in slight
confusion.
“Mr. Veikko, if you know there would be danger, why do you still want to go? Ms. Jefferson once said that only when
you're alive can there be hope. After you die, you lose everything. Please reconsider.”
Veikko waved his hand and said, “I've made up my mind. If you were in my shoes today, you would do the same
thing. There's no need to say more. By the way, make sure to protect Ms. Caridee well and don't let her leave the
branch.”
“Yes.”
After making some quick arrangements, Veikko hurriedly left the branch. On the west side of the mansion, Mindy
held her phone while standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching Veikko leave. Her lips curled into a
sinister smile.
“Thank you, Mr. Carter. He left. Don't worry. I'll lure Caridee out now.”
No one knew what Shaun had said that made the smile on Mindy's face widen, but a hint of mockery flashed in her
eyes.
Does this loser actually want to assassinate Mr. Veikko? Dream on. I must find a way to inform Ms. Jefferson. When
she realizes he's about to die, she will surely try to stop him. She's not foolish, after all. How could she stand by and
watch him go to a perilous place? If he dies, how can she become the matriarch of the Saviors?
“Alright. Rest assured, Mr. Carter. I'll definitely hand her over to you safe and sound.”
Although she despised Caridee and wished to stab her a hundred times, handing her to a psychopath like Shaun
would likely make her experience living a life worse than death or living hell.
After hanging up, she turned to the female bodyguard beside her and asked, “Did Mr. Veikko go out alone? Where is
his personal bodyguard?”
“Mindy, Mr. Veikko's personal bodyguard, is heading to Caridee's residence. He must have received orders from Mr.
Veikko to protect her, but don't worry. I've already sent someone to take care of him. After you ask Connie to call
her later, she will definitely leave the branch alone.”
Mindy smiled contentedly.
“You handled everything well without me having to tell you. That's great. I need someone clever like you. If there's
an opportunity in the future, I'll definitely promote you to be an instructor at the Savior's headquarters. Let's go. It's
time for us to set out and capture our target. Mr. Carter is still waiting for our delivery. Haha.”
In the bedroom of a private residence, Bailey leaned against the bed, obediently eating the nutritional supplements
that Artemis was feeding her.
“Are you planning to meet Kurt to get the enhancer?” asked Artemis as he scooped the soup.
Bailey shook her head and said hesitantly, “I haven't figured it out yet. Let's wait a bit longer and see if we can
come up with a better solution.”
Artemis put down the spoon, looked up at her, and said coldly, “I won't oppose any decision you make and support
you unconditionally, but there's one thing you must remember. No matter where you go, you have to take me with
you. You're not allowed to act on your own. Can you do that?”
Bailey pouted and complained softly, “You're being harsher to me.”
“Because you won't listen to me. If you behave well, I don't need to remind you with such a stern tone.”
Bailey remained quiet. Bailey refused to admit defeat. She sat up straight, ready to argue with him and see who
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas disobedient.
Her mouth twitched slightly, and the wristwatch beeped. She looked down and saw a text message pop up on the
screen.
The sender's name was a phone number. She was very familiar with the number. It was Veikko's bodyguard's phone
number.
Seeing him send her a message, she reckoned the matter must be extremely urgent.
She tapped the touchscreen of her wristwatch a few times, enlarging the font several times. As soon as she saw the
content clearly, her expression changed abruptly.
“I must head to the eastern suburb. Veikko is in danger.” After saying that, she turned over and prepared to leave
the bed. Artemis glared at her, reached out to grab her shoulder, and pushed her back.
A darkened expression appeared on his charming face. He said menacingly, “I told you to behave just now, but you
seem to have forgotten about it in the blink of an eye. Do you have the memory of a goldfish? Does it only last for
seven seconds?”
“Bailey brought the wristwatch close to his eyes.
“Did you see that? Shaun used a dirty trick and lied to Veikko, saying he still has half of his mother's ashes. Do you
know? The death of Veikko's mother has always been an unhealable wound in his heart. Now that he found out that
the other half of his mother's ashes were in his enemy's hands, he would do anything, regardless of what danger
lay ahead. He'll die, do you hear me? He'll die by Shaun's hands. Do you expect me to stand by and watch him jump
into a fire pit?”
Artemis loosened his grip and picked up the porcelain bowl again, speaking more relaxed, “Finish the soup first, and
then I'll go with you. Why are you so agitated? I never said you shouldn't care about his well-being.”
Bailey didn't say a word.
While sipping the soup, Bailey analyzed the credibility of Shaun's words.
Could it be that he really has half of Veikko's mother's ashes?
