Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 589

Chapter 586 House Arrest

Bailey received a call from the asylum, informing her that Rhonda had regained consciousness. They then asked for her instructions on how to handle the woman.

However, with a pile of pressing matters on her plate, she had no time to concern herself with Rhonda's fate. She instructed the asylum to keep Rhonda locked up to prevent any escape attempts.

To be confined to a mental institution day in and day out and have to endure the cold stares of caregivers while surrounded by a throng of lunatics... This was perhaps the cruelest form of punishment in the world.

No blood was shed, yet it inflicted a kind of torture that left one wishing for death.

Bailey had wanted this effect when she ordered the doctors to cure Rhonda.

That woman deserved to die.

But to let her die so easily would have been too merciful. Hence, Bailey devised this method to torment her.

She had always maintained that she was no saint; one could get away with crossing her once or twice, but to do it three or four times...

Unfortunately for them, she wasn't their mother, and there was no reason for her to put up with them.

When Zeke brought Zayron back to the medical base, it was already the next morning.

After a night of Felicity's condition worsening, things stabilized somewhat after daybreak, which greatly relieved Bailey.

Regardless of whether Felicity could wake up, preserving her life was the most important thing right now. Bailey refused to believe that she couldn't cure the old lady with her medical skills.

In the adjacent room, Bailey rubbed her forehead while listening to Zayron's report.

When she learned that Scarlett had orchestrated the catastrophic car accident that caused so many casualties, she gripped the glass in her hand so hard it broke.

The shards cut into her flesh, and soon blood flowed from her palm.

Zeke chided her gently, “Why are you torturing yourself over someone else's wrongful act?”

Bailey lowered her head, speaking in a cold tone. “I'm not torturing myself; I'm venting my anger. Anyway, forget about it. I'm fine. I can apply some medicine later. Since we couldn't extract information on the true mastermind behind the scenes from those moles, we can't let our guard down yet. We still have a tough battle ahead of us.”

Zeke fell silent for a moment before asking, “So, how do you plan to deal with Scarlett? She is Raiden's sister, after all. If her involvement in the massive traffic accident were exposed, she could face imprisonment or even worse—”

However, Bailey interrupted him with a wave of her hand. “So what? From the moment she decided to kill me using this method, it was inevitable that she would pay a painful price for her foolish actions. Raiden isn't stupid, so he should have already realized that his sister is behind it, but he didn't call me, which speaks volumes about his intentions. He must be planning on letting me handle it.”
