Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 675

Chapter 675 What You Have Done

Her head spinning, she rolled her eyes back and passed out on the spot.

Artemis immediately caught her body, turned to the person in charge, and said, “You must take good care of him. I won't allow anything bad to happen to him. You hear me?”

“Yes, Mr. Luther,” the person replied.

Wasting no time, Artemis scooped Bailey into his arms and strode out of the operating room.

The Chiverses and the Luthers, who were still waiting outside, were taken aback when they saw Bailey lying unconscious in Artemis' arms.

“What's wrong with Bay?” Felicity asked.

Artemis pursed his lips as he glanced at the ashen-faced woman in his arms.

Her breathing was so weak that he could barely feel her heartbeat.

If it were not for the subtle movements of her chest, he would have thought she had breathed her last.

“Perhaps it was exhaustion that caused her to faint,” Artemis replied. He turned to Glen and said, “Don't worry, Granddad. I'll do everything in my power to ensure that nothing bad will happen to the heir to the Chivers family. Even though Bay didn't mention the specific details about his condition before she fainted, I'm confident that she'll apply all her knowledge to save Edmund's leg. Please have faith in her.”

Glen waved his hand and sighed. “You don't need to say that to comfort me. I've lived long enough to accept the realities of life. Quick, perform a complete checkup on Bay. Her pale face looks as frightening as a ghost.”

As he finished speaking, Justin walked over, looking utterly exhausted. “What's wrong with Bailey?”

Justin took a step forward to observe her closely, and his expression suddenly changed. “Take her to the consultation room next door. I need to perform emergency cardiac resuscitation on her. She's now in great danger.”

The color drained out of Artemis' face.

He knew something was off about her but did not expect her condition to be so serious. “Okay.”

Meanwhile, in a bedroom in the Jefferson residence, Rhonda sat on the carpet, holding a phone and making a call.

After listening to the report from the other end of the phone, she smirked.

Rhonda was not surprised by the turn of events. If it were that easy to get rid of Bailey, she would have been dead a long time ago. She's like a cat with nine lives, and there's no way we can simply dispose of her.

“Got it. I want you to deliver all the items I told you to gather earlier to the Shurmers anonymously. I want Zoey to be kicked out of the family, lose everything, and become a street-wandering beggar,” she said. That b*tch has caused me so much trouble. With Sofie on the run and no one to protect her, it's time to strike her with a devastating blow.

“Got it. I'll see to it right away,” the person replied.

Meanwhile, at the medical base, the Lewitts heaved a sigh of relief upon learning that Wendy was out of danger.

Sebastian tilted his head, looked at his father, and asked, “What are you going to do with Mommy and me? How are you going to convince her since she is prejudiced against you?”

Holden lowered his head and remembered Artemis had given him a pill that could help him restore his lost memories. “You wait right here. I'll give you an answer half an hour later.”

After speaking to Ivy briefly, he then left and walked to the study.

He opened the door and saw Micah puffing at a cigarette on the couch.

Seeing how defeated he looked, he could not help but arch his brows and thought of a phrase—misery loves company!

Holden walked over and sat opposite him. “Do you have another cigarette? Give me one.”

Micah lifted his head and glanced at him. He then reached for a cigarette box and tossed it to him.

When he was about to light a cigarette after catching the cigarette box, something popped into his mind, causing him to abandon the idea of smoking. He slowly fished a bottle of pills from his pocket, stared at it, and popped them into his mouth.

Bits and pieces of memories began flashing across his mind, filling in all the missing parts of his life.

All the affectionate and intimate moments took him back to a happy time they had spent together.

It was then he realized he was a man with feelings.

Nevertheless, he betrayed his feelings.

He had deceived Wendy even after falling in love with her, using her to obtain insider information about the Hoffman family before abandoning her.

Even though he had reasons for doing so, it did not change the fact that he had betrayed her trust.

Click! Click!

After igniting the lighter and lit a cigarette, he took a deep drag, causing the stick to burn quickly.

The acrid smoke ravaged his lungs, spreading a suffocating discomfort throughout his body.

Despite the unpleasantness, it made him feel good. That's how a man should smoke.

Coughs reverberated in every corner of the room.

Micah glared at him and sneered, “You know, we're not so different, you and I. We both resorted to deceit to achieve our own selfish goals and ended up hurting the women we loved. And now, it's come back to haunt us.”

Holden could not help but respond with a wry smile. He's not wrong.

Known as The Tarragon Titans, Holden and Micah were close friends. As people who possessed influential power, they knew they should not let their feelings get to them.

Yet, they both made a fatal mistake by letting their romantic feelings get the better of them.

They were so consumed by their romantic feelings that they found it difficult to extricate themselves from the situation.

“I was considering the possibility of learning to love her and starting anew even though my feelings for her weren't there initially. I mean, having a child together would give us hope to start all over again, right? But when the missing memories flashed across my mind, I realized how ridiculous I was. I loved her, yet I chose to deceive her and use her to cause immense harm to her family.”

Micah poked fun at himself. “That's why we're destined to be lonely.”

“You're right. We're destined to be lonely.”

Meanwhile, in the evening, Zoey trembled as she stood before Steven and Waverly in the living room in the Shurmer residence. “Mom, Dad, what do you mean? Why do you want to send me abroad, and why can't I return to the country? Are you trying to kick me out of the family?”

Waverly scowled at her and stressed every word as she spoke. “I'll give you a chance to confess everything you've done recently. Tell me every detail.”

Zoey clenched her fists, struggling to comprehend the motive behind the elderly woman's words and why she suddenly suggested sending her abroad.

Steven shot her a sharp glance, and disappointment flashed across his eyes. He reached into the drawer slowly, pulled out a stack of documents, and slammed them onto the desk. “Take a look at these, and see what you've done.”

Zoey lowered her head to look at the documents and saw the photo of her interacting intimately with Sofie as a mother and a daughter would.

In fact, they were indeed mother and daughter. Zoey apologized, “I-I'm sorry. I reconnected with my birth mother behind your back. It's all my fault.”
