Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 992

Chapter 992 Provoking Bailey

Bailey stood at the doorway, listening to the housekeeper's report, a hint of mockery visible at the corner of her lips.

Not stopping me anymore, huh? Could that woman really believe that her petty, underhanded schemes could fool me and turn me completely against Artemis?

After standing quietly at the door for a moment, she finally stepped into the room.

Before her eyes was Blaze, or should she say, Eunice. Eunice was reclined against the head of the bed with a pale face and a melancholy expression.

With her delicate and fragile demeanor, coupled with a face that could rival a movie star's, it was no wonder she could stir men's deep-seated desire to protect her.

No wonder Cameron, that sharp and intelligent guy, is utterly bewitched and toyed around by this vile wench.

Between coughs, Eunice muttered, “Bay, you're here.”

Bailey lowered her head slightly, suppressing the disgust in her heart. She took one step at a time toward the bed and nodded, saying, “I came to see how you're doing... Are you feeling any better?”

Drip!

Tears streamed down Eunice's face. She struggled to grasp Bailey's wrist, choking on her words, “Bay, I... I shouldn't have come to the manor... If I hadn't come, last night's incident wouldn't have happened. I know how devoted you are to love and how you are unable to accept that the man you love has been with another woman. B-But Mr. Luther truly loves you. He must have been out of his mind for doing what he did to me last night. Please, don't blame him. Please.”

Suppressing the urge to punch her disgusting face, Bailey tried to force a smile and said with some difficulty, “I don't blame you. I blame those scumbags who have no sense of boundaries. Artemis kept professing his love for me, but in the end, he was worse than a beast. He even had the heart to hurt you. We're done. Don't ever mention him in front of me again.”

Seeing her firm attitude, Eunice couldn't help but feel elated. Even her eyes sparkled with excitement, an emotion she couldn't hide.

She wanted to provoke Bailey a bit. After a moment of silence, her face showed an indescribable expression. She cried out, “It's all because of my good-for-nothing body. Apart from my looks, I'm useless. Last night, when he lunged at me, I instinctively resisted. But no matter how much I struggled, I couldn't escape his grip. In the end, all I could do was watch him take possession of me intensely. He was fierce, just like Kurt, only knowing how to do what he wanted without any regard for my wishes.” She sobbed for a bit before adding, “Bay, what have I done wrong? Why do these men humiliate me so? They want me so badly as if they wish to...”

Bailey couldn't bear it any longer. She reached out, grabbed the water cup from the bedside table, and handed it to her.

“It's all in the past now. Here, have some water to calm your nerves. No one will hurt or humiliate you anymore. From now on, Cameron will protect you diligently. As for those who have hurt you, they will pay a hefty price.”

Eunice was eager to provoke Bailey, so even when she was interrupted, she didn't stop. She continued, “You and Mr. Luther are so in love. As your friend, I should be encouraging you to stay together. H-However, it's really hard for me to do that. After all, he's been tainted by me. I really think he's no longer worthy of you. All of this happened because of me. I ruined your happiness of a lifetime. I deserve to go to hell.”

“It wasn't your fault.” Bailey suppressed her emotions, trying to make her tone as calm as possible. “How can you be blamed for these disasters that you've had to endure? Don't speak such nonsense in the future. Take good care of yourself, and once you've fully recovered, you can wear a pristine white wedding dress and marry Cameron.”

In truth, Eunice really wanted to say, “I want Artemis to take responsibility and marry me.”

However, the real Blaze had no feelings for Artemis. Her love was for Cameron. If she behaved too abnormally at this moment, it would arouse their suspicion.

“All right, I'll take good care of my health and strive to emerge from this nightmare as soon as possible. That way, I can stay by Cameron's side.”

A hint of mockery flashed deep within Bailey's eyes.

This woman claims she wants to spend her life with Cameron, but I'm sure she's scheming on how to trick Artemis once again. Once she has him within her grasp, she will finish what was left undone last night and then force Artemis to marry her. To be honest, it's quite disgusting that the man I love is being coveted by such a pretentious creature.
