Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 376

Chapter 376

If it were before, she would probably have been overjoyed.

Yet, as the years passed, she only thought that it was ironic when she saw him guarding her in the distance.

Such irony. Where was he when I experienced the darkest days of my life when I lost my arm and my son? Ha, how can I forget? He consented for others to cut off my arm. He was also the one who sent men to kill my son. All my misfortunes are because of him.

As Shannon recalled her past, especially Eugene's innocent little face, hatred brewed in her.

She suddenly stood up and grabbed her bag on the table to retrieve a few pictures before dashing out of the room.

Seeing her stumble down the stairs, Micah immediately went over to help her.

“Shanny...”

“Don't call me that.” Shaking his arm off, Shannon glared at him with hatred and gritted her teeth. “I feel disgusted when you call me that.”

Micah's pupils constricted, and a look of pain flashed across his face.

“Sha... Shannon, I had no choice but to do what I did back then. I had no authority and couldn't protect you. If you didn't lose an arm, they would have killed you. I can only hurt you as compared to losing you.”

“Enough.” Her eyes wide, Shannon glared at him and yelled, “You think I hate you because of that incident? No. What made me hate you is your heartlessness. You killed so many people, even your own flesh and blood.”

My flesh and blood?

Stunned, Micah stared at her with a frown on his face. “My flesh and blood? Shannon, what are you talking about?”

Shannon barked out a laugh. “You're pathetic. What, you don't dare to admit the crimes you committed?”

Micah was utterly confused.

If it were before, she would probably have been overjoyed.

His instincts told him that he was missing something.

He seemed to be kept in the dark regarding certain matters.

“Shannon, calm down. Tell me what you want to say straightforwardly. Don't beat around the bush, okay?”

“You're not going to admit it?” Shannon glowered at him with red-rimmed eyes and screamed, “You were the mastermind behind that car accident years ago. How can you not admit it? Micah, are you even a man?”

Walking toward her, Micah grasped her shoulder with one hand and caressed her elegant brow with the other gently, his fingers lingering on her skin.

No woman could remain impassive if a man who had power and influence reaching across the globe treated her so gently.

However, the person he was treating so lovingly was Shannon, making his actions seem ironic.

“Shanny, I'll give you my arm. If that still can't diminish your anger, I can dig out my heart for you. Can you just stop looking at me with such deep hatred? It hurts.”

Shannon laughed hysterically, and as she laughed, tears started sliding down her face.

Shoving him away, she uttered sarcastically, “I thought you were just heartless before. Now it seems that you don't even have any basic sense of responsibility. How can you not have a sliver of regret when my child died a terrible death? Micah, I wish I could skin you alive and incapacitate you.”

Child? Died a terrible death? What does she mean? What is she trying to say?

Micah's face turned sour, and he reflexively stretched out his hand to grab her left hand, but all he touched was her sleeve.

His face turned pale at that.
