Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 800

Chapter 800 She Had Fallen Into A Trap

Veikko pursed his lips tightly, belatedly realizing that something was off, but it was already too late.

After a moment of silence, he slowly lowered his head and said tearfully, “I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so reckless.”

Bailey sighed silently. She understood Veikko's feelings, having seen how miserable the young man was when she saved him on that rainy night.

The only thing that could redeem him now was ending Shaun's life or the solace of his closest kin. His mother, who he relied on for survival, had passed away, and given his character, he would never allow anyone to disrespect his mother's ashes.

The decision Veikko made was, in fact, within Bailey's expectations. However, he was still too young and not calm enough when facing problems. In the end, not only was he deceived, but he also made a huge mistake.

“Enough with the useless talk. Hurry up and send someone to investigate Caridee's whereabouts,” Artemis said in a low voice, awakening Veikko from his guilt and self-reproach.

As soon as realization dawned upon him, Veikko hurriedly took his phone and went to the side to make a call. Artemis tilted his head and looked at Bailey, who was beside him, and asked, “What do you think?”

“There's a mole within the Saviors branch,” Bailey said lightly as she glanced at him. After saying that, she walked leisurely toward the car. Artemis raised his eyebrows.

It looks like someone is going to suffer.

The two of them waited in the car for a short while until Veikko returned.

“Caridee left voluntarily. She received a call from a welfare center in Capston and left in a hurry. I guess something happened at the welfare center, and the staff there called her. As for my personal bodyguard, I still can't get in touch with him for now,” Veikko reported.

Welfare center?

Bailey turned her gaze towards Artemis beside her. Without her needing to ask, Artemis understood her confusion and explained, “Caridee enjoys doing charity work. She has been to many countries and sponsored numerous welfare centers. The one in Capston should be one of them.”

After hearing that, the corner of Bailey's lips curled into a smirk.

“Perhaps we can intercept them if we hurry. Let's go to the welfare center.” Artemis smiled faintly and agreed,

“Indeed, there's still a chance. Aren't we in the eastern suburb right now? The welfare center should not be far from here. After all the scheming, they ended up failing here. Anyone smart enough wouldn't have lured Veikko to the eastern suburb.”

The private airport was located in the eastern suburb, and so was the welfare center. When Veikko realized something was wrong, he could immediately change direction and headed to the welfare center. That was why Artemis said the other party's scheme might end up in vain.

“Is this the code for your personal bodyguard?” Bailey retrieved the message from the communicator and handed it to Veikko.

Veikko lowered his head, glanced, and nodded.

“Yes. So you came to the eastern suburb because he informed you?”

“The code is indeed his, but the person who sent the message is definitely not him. There's someone with ulterior motives in our branch. We'll deal with it thoroughly once this matter is resolved.”

Bailey sneered. Veikko slowly clenched his fist upon hearing that. They had messed with Caridee, which was like touching his sore spot.

Even without Bailey's instructions, he would also find out who was behind it.

At the same time, at Sunray Welfare Center, Caridee hurriedly rushed into the welfare center after parking her car at the entrance. As soon as she stepped on the field outside the welfare center, she sensed that something was off.

Wasn't there a fire? Why is the air inside still so fresh, devoid of any suffocating odors?

Caridee instantly kept her guard up and did not proceed any further. Slowly, she stopped in her tracks and began to observe her surroundings carefully.

The buildings were intact, with no signs of fire damage. In other words, Connie had lied to her.

Why? Why did she deceive me?

To her knowledge, Connie had always been a loving person. Caridee had decided to sponsor Connie after hearing that the latter had spent all her savings to help a group of orphans. Later, when the welfare center was established, Connie took in many orphans.

Over the years, she had been dedicated and stayed true to her initial intentions. Why would Connie suddenly call Caridee and lie about something happening at the welfare center? Could it be...

Not knowing what came to her mind, Caridee's expression suddenly darkened and she turned around to leave. She had fallen into a trap.

“You want to leave? It won't be that easy. We poured so much effort just to catch you. Do you really think you can escape?”

Behind her, a cold, mocking laugh sounded. Caridee trembled with fear upon hearing that, but she did not stop walking. Instead, she continued walking straight toward the door. Five meters, three meters...

The way out was right in front of her. However, suddenly, several bodyguards dressed in black barged in, blocking the door completely.

All of a sudden, Caridee stopped in her tracks, gritted her teeth, and asked angrily, “What do you mean by this? Do you really intend to commit a crime in broad daylight?”

The bodyguards did not say a word. The cold female voice sounded again from behind.

“Ms. Caridee, you'd better behave and comply. We promise not to harm a single hair on your head. On the contrary, if you insist on resisting, my people are not the type to show mercy. If you end up getting hurt, that would be unfortunate.”

Upon hearing the voice again, Caridee felt a strong sense of familiarity.

She seemed to have heard it somewhere, and it was very recent. The impression in her mind was profoundly etched. As Caridee turned her head, she saw the face of the woman and instantly recognized her.

“It's you! I saw you at the Saviors branch. You're Mindy's underling. So, she's the one who forced Connie to get me here. What on earth do you all want?”

“Ms. Luther, you should ask me, the mastermind behind this, instead. She's nothing more than a dog doing the bidding of her master. Do you really expect to get any useful information out of her?”

Caridee suddenly turned around, only to see Mindy standing at the door, staring at her with a sinister grin.

It looks like this woman is really up to something. Could it be that she's colluding with Shaun?

“Very well, then, please, Ms. Xydias, explain to me what's going on here.”

Mindy fiddled with her bright red nails as she said calmly, “There's nothing much. I just want to take you to meet someone, that's all. Since you're like a mouse in a trap now, come with me. My esteemed guest can't wait any longer. He's eagerly anticipating your arrival.”

Hearing that, Caridee instinctively took two steps back, her intuition telling her that the “esteemed guest” the woman referred to was none other than Shaun.

That scum was furious because she was the reason he was disabled. If she were to fall into his hands, there's no telling what twisted methods he would use to torture her.

Mindy caught the fear in Caridee's eyes and could not help but burst into laughter.

“What's wrong? Are you scared? This is just the beginning. There will be plenty more for you to fear and despair in the future.”

After saying that, Mindy raised her hand and waved it in Chapter 801the air, then coldly ordered, “Tie her up and take her to Mr. Carter's residence.”

Caridee was rendered speechless and staggered back a few steps. After that, she turned around and ran. It is human instinct that when faced with danger, the first thought that comes to mind is to escape.

Seeing that Caridee did not want to cooperate, a hint of fierceness flashed across Mindy's eyes.

Although Mindy could not end Caridee's life, the former could still inflict some pain and agony to make Caridee suffer. A cold glint flashed before her eyes.
