Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 672

Chapter 672 Knelt Down

Victoria opened her mouth to speak but hesitated.

She didn't know how to tell Bailey what she had seen at the front entrance earlier.

Even if Edmund was saved, his life was probably ruined.

A person, especially a man, should stand tall and live with pride. However, his leg was not just highly likely to be lost, but it was already completely destroyed.

Even the most advanced medical techniques in the world might not be able to restore his leg, which was completely destroyed in the explosion.

When Bailey saw that Victoria wasn't speaking, her heart sank, and she fell into despair.

Even though the heater was turned on and the room was warm, she felt a piercing coldness deep within her.

All the while, her greatest fear throughout was that Edmund would sacrifice himself to save her, so she had been constantly worried and anxious.

However, in the end, fate played a cruel joke on her by snatching Edmund's life right before her eyes.

She would live the rest of her life with a sense of guilt and self-blame, unable to find peace day or night.

“I have to go see him.” Bailey struggled to get up again.

No one could stop her from accompanying Edmund on his final journey.

Victoria was about to intervene, but upon seeing tears streaming down Bailey's face, she suppressed her thoughts and assisted the latter to sit up.

“Listen to me, Bay. Edmund is not dead, but his condition is critical. He's in the emergency room receiving treatment, and I don't know the details. However, you should prepare yourself mentally because his right leg is likely beyond repair. The impact was so severe that it caused significant damage to his lower leg.”

Bailey froze as she was about to flip over and get up.

When Victoria mentioned that Edmund was not dead, a glimmer of hope appeared in Bailey's eyes.

However, when she said that Edmund's leg was unlikely to be saved, the joy gradually faded away and was replaced by a veil of gloom.

Nonetheless, she didn't let herself become too negative. After struggling to get up, she limped over to the cabinet, retrieved a few substances, mixed them together, and injected them into her arm.

Victoria was taken aback. She tried to rush over to stop Bailey, but it was too late because the latter had injected the mixture too quickly. It was so fast that Victoria couldn't react in time.

She had thought Bailey was preparing medicine for Edmund. Little did she expect it to be for Bailey herself.

“Bay, what did you inject into your body?”

“It's a stimulant. Don't worry. I won't die from it. At worst, there might be some side effects. I need to restore my peak condition before going to the emergency room,” Bailey replied.

Going to the emergency room?

Victoria furrowed her brows.

Afraid Bailey would break down after seeing Edmund's condition, she said, “Justin is taking care of him in the emergency room. Everything should be fine. You've exerted yourself too much. I think—”

Bailey waved her hand to interrupt Victoria. “Vicky, Edmund has sacrificed everything for me, including his life. He saved me from the brink of death seven years ago, and he did the same today. I'm a human being, not an animal. I know how to be grateful. Although I don't love him, his existence has already become an inseparable part of my life.”

Victoria let out a soft sigh. “You have your own principles. Forget it. After what happened, it's unlikely that you'll be able to stay here peacefully. Come on. I'll accompany you there.”

“Okay.”

Outside the emergency room, the hallway was filled with people. Almost all the members of the Chivers and Luther families were there, waiting outside the door in silence for the final result.
