Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 872

Chapter 872 She Wants To Save Herself

Veikko also gave Bailey a thumbs up.

“As expected of Bailey. Not only is she pretty, but she is also ruthless.”

Laughing in amusement, Bailey turned and headed toward the house.

Veikko wiped the playful smirk off his face and quickly hurried after her.

“Bailey, what should we do next?”

Bailey side-eyed him, curling her lips into a half-smile. “I gave it some thought. Given Shaun's temperament, he'd probably insist on killing you himself. And the only trump card he has now is the imposter pretending to be Caridee. How about this? Let's use that woman to set a trap for Shaun.”

Veikko blinked as if he understood what she meant.

I knew it. This woman always has more unconventional ideas. If I was her, I'd only run around in panic.

“What kind of trap should we plot?”

Bailey tilted her head to look at him, grinning evilly. “After bringing that imposter to the Saviors' branch, I need you to secretly monitor her communicator. She's now by your side under the guise of Caridee. She's not one to tread carefully, so she's likely to be secretly communicating with Shaun. Find out what task Shaun has assigned her, then follow her lead and cooperate with her. We'll use the trap Shaun has set to counter-trap him.”

Veikko was utterly impressed by the woman.

Mr. Luther's incredible for being able to handle a woman like her.

Meanwhile, Simon chased his daughter all the way to the garden.

The little girl's face was somewhat pale, and a thin layer of sweat had formed on her forehead.

She ran, panting heavily as she did so.

As she walked over a patch of cobblestones, her foot slipped, causing her to fall flat on the ground.

Simon took a quick step forward, bending over to sweep her into his arms.

“Are you all right? Did you hurt yourself when you fell?”

The little girl bit her lip, staring at him with a defiant expression, tears swirling in her eyes.

With a soft sigh, Simon expressed his helplessness. “Luna, your mother has kept this from me for so many years. Her showing up at my door with you out of the blue isn't a pleasant surprise but a shock, you know? You have to give me some time to adjust. I never said I wouldn't take responsibility for both of you. I came to Moranta this time solely to find closure with the past. Only then will it be fair to your mother.”

The young girl complained, “In the end, you kidnapped the bride. Thank goodness my mom wasn't there, or it would have been so awkward.”

Simon felt an ache in the head as he tried to explain, “Something happened at the wedding, so I had no choice but to bring her back with me. There's really nothing to it. I was planning to send her back tomorrow when you guys suddenly showed up in Moranta.”

Luna lost it. “So you're saying we shouldn't have come to Moranta and gotten in the way of you rekindling an old flame.”

After she finished speaking, she began to struggle intensely.

Simon felt rather helpless.

Why is this girl so easily triggered? She has strong personal convictions and is quick-tempered. She has quite a temper for such a young age.

“All right, all right. I was wrong. I'm sorry, okay. Please stop fussing around. You might hurt yourself.”

Luna was somewhat breathless, and she clutched her chest tightly. She struggled fiercely a few times, but in the end, she could not catch her breath and passed out.

Simon was taken aback. That was when he finally noticed his daughter's face was pale to the point she was almost translucent.

Everything was fine just a moment ago. How is she suddenly looking so ill?

“Luna, Luna....”

Simon called out to her several times but there was no response. Seeing that, he quickly carried her up in his arms and hurried toward the house.

He had a hunch that something seemed off with his daughter's health and a serious one at that.

In the room of the mansion in the suburbs was Caridee lying unconscious on the couch.

Shaun was pouring the medicine on her face with a sinister smile.

Sure enough, the chemical could remove the thin hyper-realistic mask on her face.

In no time, a beautiful face appeared before his eyes.

He had initially thought he would be consumed by rage, that he would take a knife and slowly mar her face, destroying the man's first crush.

After seeing her true face, which was as delicate as a porcelain doll, he found himself unable to proceed.

Perhaps he had vented all his anger on the imposter, so he felt nothing but immense pity for the real deal before him.

He gently cradled the delicate face that haunted his dreams, his heart itching with desire.

He wanted so badly to teach her a serious lesson.

Unfortunately, his most important organ was not functioning as it should anymore.

“Sweetheart, my little treasure, just because I'm impotent doesn't mean I can't do anything to you. As long as you're in my hands, I can slowly discover, develop, and make you...”

After he finished speaking, he leaned over and kissed her face.

Luna lost it. “So you're saying we shouldn't have come to Moranta and gotten in the way of you rekindling an old flame.”

He had a million ways to bully her and make her abandon herself to pleasures.

As if sensing danger, Caridee slowly opened her eyes.

After a moment of stunned silence, her consciousness gradually returned, and she suddenly snapped back to reality.

Seeing the sinister and lewd face before her, she instinctively began to struggle.

Although she knew her chances were slim before she fell unconscious, she still felt somewhat at a loss when she truly faced the situation now.

She had experienced the man's ways before.

In fact, she still vividly remembered the fate of the imposter Tucker had created.

If this madman treats me the same way... No, I'd rather die if I have to endure such humiliating torment.

“Awake, are you? Wonderful. Now that you're awake, let's do something fun.”

After he finished speaking, he slowly closed in on her.

Caridee gradually calmed down after the initial panic passed.

I won't succumb to my fate. I must not give up until the last moment. I've got to save myself. Yes. I have to save myself.

After making up her mind, she suddenly stopped struggling and looked at him with teary eyes.

“I know once I fall into your hands, there's no escape. I promise you. I won't resist, nor will I struggle. Go easy on me, will you? I'll do anything you want. Just don't hit me.”

Shaun suddenly became excited.

Playing alone was meaningless.

If the woman was willing to cooperate, it would definitely be very satisfying.

After all, she was now in his hands, and there was no escaping from him. Shaun had nothing to worry about.

“A wise person submits to the circumstances. As expected from the legitimate daughter of the Luther family. You truly know how to assess the situation. Since you've spoken, I, naturally, will have compassion for you. As long as you don't resist, I won't be rough with you. After all, you're a fragile person. I can't bring myself to be rough with you either.”

Caridee slowly placed her hand on his shoulder, her voice trembling as she asked, “So, what do you want to do with me? What should I do?”

Shaun laughed heartily, then leaned in to whisper in her ear.

Caridee was listening with a stiff upper lip.

Those despicable demands left her at a loss for what to do.

How dare this lunatic come up with such horrid ways to deal with me?

“Sweetheart, did you understand what I said? If you did, let's get started.”
