Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 671

Chapter 671 You Cannot Just Die Like This

Holden's pupils constricted at once.

Edmund's right leg was now a mass of bleeding flesh. There was barely anything left under his trousers.

During the crucial moment of danger, Edmund had attempted to kick the grenade underneath his feet away, but it exploded in the air.

To do so, he had to sacrifice his right leg.

Although Artemis was far away from him, he could see the disastrous scene when the smoke faded away.

He was heartbroken at the sight of it.

Edmund is the only heir of the Chivers family. If he becomes disabled, his family will be devastated. Granddad and Uncle Yoel have put much effort into raising Edmund as a qualified heir, but now...

“He's still alive, but he's not doing well. He needs to be rushed to the hospital immediately.”

Seeing Sylvester and his subordinates from Tarragon opening a path, Artemis shouted coldly at him, “Sylvester, kill every single one of them.”

“Got it.”

Meanwhile, in the suburbs, Raiden and Zeke split up and searched the area within a radius of two kilometers from the mansion with some men.

Then, they gathered at the entrance of Sofie's private mansion.

Seeing the other party return empty-handed, they had no choice but to accept that Sofie had escaped.

“We were too late. Someone must have come for her and helped her leave the mansion after she sneaked out from the hidden passage.”

Raiden nodded. “She sure is a cunning woman. No wonder she could pull a trick right under Bailey's and Artemis' noses and completely fool us all. Her schemes and tricks are truly terrifying. If we don't get rid of her, I'm afraid Bailey will face something worse later on. I will inform the navy, the army, and the air force so that they tighten the security and don't let that woman sneak out of Hallsbay. As long as she is still here, I will find her even if I have to turn over every stone in the world with the Shurmer and Luther families' help.”

Inclining his head, Zeke said, “Thank you so much. Since our mission here has failed, I won't stay long as I still have to rush back to the outskirts to back Artemis and the rest up. Although Bay is confident in herself, such a battle still has its risks. I can only rest assured after seeing them safe and sound.”

“All right. Go ahead. I won't go with you as I have to contact the immigration department and ask them to tighten the security.”

After receiving Holden's message, Dwayne invaded the secret base, eliminated the traitors, and successfully rescued Micah and the rest.

During the fight, Wendy got shot when trying to protect Sebastian. The bullet penetrated her abdomen, and her life was at stake.

Ivy and Shannon were filled with anxiety. After spending time together, they now saw Wendy as part of the Lewitt family. Seeing that Wendy was on the brink of death, the mother and daughter were utterly terrified.

Wendy, who was relatively calm, extended her arm to grab Ivy's hand tightly. Parting her lips with difficulty, she stammered, “If anything bad happens to me, please take care of Sebastian for me. No matter what grudges the Lewitt family holds against me, the child is still innocent and is a descendant of the Lewitt family. You mustn't let him fall into the Hoffman family's hands. Otherwise, he will suffer terribly.”

With tears rolling down her cheeks, Ivy choked out, “What are you talking about? You didn't hurt your heart and your head, so you'll be fine. Hold on a little longer. We are safe now and are on the way to the medical base. Wendy, I know Holden lied to you, stole your family's confidential information, got you kicked out of the family, and made you homeless. That brat owes you an explanation. You can't just die like this.”

Shannon hurriedly nodded in agreement. “Wendy, Mom is right. At least you must find out whether Holden loves you. If you don't figure that out, won't your whole life be in vain?”

A faint grin appeared on Wendy's face as she slowly closed her eyes.

None of these matters anymore.

She and Holden had spent great times together, which was the best part of her life.

Whether he was sincere or faking it, she didn't want to pursue the matter and only wanted to spend her last moments reminiscing those beautiful memories.

“Mr. Derning, please tell Holden that Wendy probably can't hold on any longer and ask him to hurry over.”
