She had been longing to do this for a while.
Finally, she had seized such an opportunity.
When dealing with jerks, there's no need to be excessively polite.
Caught off guard, Sylvester got splashed in the face. With two tea leaves hanging from his nose, he looked quite comical.
His body shuddered twice, and his clenched fists by his sides revealed his suppressed anger.
Bailey chuckled. “I know you're furious right now. Don't hold back. If you want to hit me, feel free to give it your best shot. Don't worry. I assure you that Artemis won't bother you afterward. Stop restraining yourself. It's difficult for me to watch.”
Sylvester closed his eyes for a moment, suppressing the rage that was boiling inside him, and then repeated what he had just said.
Bailey's face hardened, her eyes filled with a chilling glint. She sneered, “Should I tell you where Rainie is, so you can continue to harm her without any restraint? Sylvester, I used to think of you as a man, so I tried to resolve the conflict between you two, thinking of finding another way out for you. Ever since you pushed Rainie away for that person, I knew you weren't deserving of Rainie. You... You're not even a match for Justin's little finger.”
Once again, Sylvester clenched his fists, the veins on his arms bulging prominently.
Bailey continued, “Scarlett has the support of the most powerful political family, yet Justin is fearless. He set up such a large trap and completely brought down Scarlett. Look at your buddy; see how much he has sacrificed for the girl he loves. Now, look at yourself. What have you done for Rainie? Besides causing harm, you've done nothing.”
Hos couldn't bear such accusations. Eager to explain something, he blurted out, “Veronique's son is Justin's. It's only natural for Justin to protect her.”
After hearing that, Bailey kicked him directly.
She kicked with considerable force, striking right at the pain nerves. Instantly, Sylvester doubled over in pain.
Bailey looked at him coldly, her face darkened. “So you mean to say that Rainie's child isn't yours, and that gives you the right to trample on her and hurt her at will? Sylvester, oh, Sylvester... Loving someone isn't about doing that. Initially, Justin didn't know that Zephyr was his son, but he still protected Veronique. I've finally understood. Even now, you still haven't realized where you went wrong. If that's the case, don't bother looking for Rainie anymore. You're not worthy.”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the exit.
Sylvester wanted to rush up to intervene, but Bailey warned him with a cold, emotionless voice, “I'm very protective of my own. If you continue to bother Rainie, don't blame me for not going easy on Karina. Make sure you understand that this is Hallsbay. If I want someone dead, even you can't protect them.”
This statement was not an exaggeration at all.
Sylvester didn't dare to move at that point.
He knew that Bailey always kept her word. If she had made such a harsh statement, she would certainly act against Karina if he continued to pressure her.
He didn't dare to take the risk.
Bailey stepped out of the reception room. As she saw that Sylvester hadn't followed her out, she felt a trace of disappointment bubbling within her.
If he were to chase after Rainie, disregarding everything else, she would be willing to give him another chance.
Unfortunately, he didn't do so.
If that's the case, he should just go be with his childhood sweetheart and stop bothering Rainie.
The next day.
The royal family issued a statement announcing that Veronique, the second daughter of the Revelle family, a renowned medical family, had been secretly receiving treatment at the royal medical base. They were pleased to report that there had been significant progress in her battle against cancer.
The reason they had previously announced her death was because she had fallen into a coma during chemotherapy. The medical team had no confidence in being able to save her.
