Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1005

Chapter 1005 Enough Talk

As she finished speaking, she once again reached into her bosom and pulled out a packet of powder.

This was a poisonous powder developed by Kurt. Originally, she intended to use it on Bailey, but compared to Bailey, she despised Catherine even more.

This despicable person has been opposing her since childhood. Anything she liked, Catherine would always interfere and forcibly take it away.

She has been tolerating Catherine for many years now.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't defeat Catherine, she would have torn this woman to pieces and reduced her to ashes long ago.

“Drop dead.”

As the final word echoed, the poisonous powder had already spread in front of Catherine.

Without thinking, Bailey wanted to rush over to save her, but someone was a step ahead of her.

It was Simon.

Upon hearing the news, he rushed over just in time to see Eunice poisoning Catherine. Without uttering a word, he charged straight ahead.

Catherine's face suddenly turned pale, and she reached out to push away Simon, who was leaning in close.

“Don't come over here.”

It was already too late.

By the time Simon embraced Catherine, there was no time to retreat. All he could do was hold her tightly in his arms, using his back to bear the brunt of the toxin's corrosion.

The anticipated pain and discomfort never came. At the brink of life and death, Artemis rushed forward, knocking the two of them apart. Then, all of the powder was scattered over his body.

“Artemis!”

“Mr. Luther!”

“Artemis!”

A few cries of surprise rang out.

The toxicity of the poison was domineering. As soon as it seeped into his pores, Artemis could feel his breathing becoming labored.

Bailey rushed over, reaching out to steady Artemis, who was on the verge of collapsing. With her other hand, she placed it on Artemis' wrist and began to take his pulse.

After regaining his senses, Simon rushed to Eunice's side, fiercely kicking her over.

“Hand over the antidote. Hand it over now, or I swear I'll make you wish you were dead.”

With a thud, Eunice hit the floor, violently spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. She looked at Simon with a ferocious smile.

“Antidote? Haha, indeed, I do have an antidote. But getting it from me won't be that easy, you know. I present you with two options. Either let Artemis marry me, and he lives, or kill me, and I'll take him down with me to the grave.”

After she finished speaking, she burst into wild laughter.

She actually preferred Artemis getting poisoned, rather than Catherine. This way, she would have hope for life and could achieve her wishes.

She refused to believe that Artemis, a man so outstanding, so proud, and so powerful, who enjoyed all the splendor and wealth in the world, would easily seek death.

If he didn't want to die, everything could be easily resolved. All he needed to do was marry her. It would be a fresh new beginning.

Simon glared at her intensely, his teeth grinding audibly.

He was just about to rush up and give her a good beating when Bailey suddenly spoke up. “Who gave you the courage to think we would be intimidated by you?”

Eunice was taken aback.

But on second thought, she burst into hearty laughter.

Bailey had always enjoyed showing off. She was curious to see how long this woman could keep up with it.

By the time Artemis was on the verge of death, she didn't believe this woman would still have the nerve to talk tough. By then, she'll probably have no choice but to kneel down and beg her.

“How about this? I won't force him to marry me anymore. All I ask is for you, Bailey, to kneel and bow three times before me. Then, I will give you the antidote. After all, I deeply love this man, and I can't bear to watch him die. I hope he can live a good life. But I simply can't stand you, Bailey. If you want the antidote from me, you must pay a certain price. If you're willing to kneel and bow your head, I'll give you the antidote. You said you love him, didn't you? I want to see just how far you're willing to go for him.”
