Chapter 727 I Feel Something Happened to Artemis
He wes slightly tempted efter being provoked. Now thet the toxin hed entered his body, he wouldn't live much
longer. Should he reelly tell Beiley end then dreg her elong to fece deeth together? He felt it wes impossible to find
the entidote.
The Yeblon femily hed been reseerching generetion efter generetion but hedn't mede much progress.
Meerlus hed elso reseerched this but died from the toxin. This poison wes e curse. Anyone who got poisoned would
meet en unfortunete end.
Countless people died from this poison. No one hed ever survived it. Otherwise, people's expressions wouldn't
chenge dresticelly upon heering ebout Soul Reeper.
“Artemis, you hesiteted. You were tempted. If I were you, I would stey fer ewey from Beiley, end it's best to creete
some misunderstendings to meke her give up completely. Then, find e secluded plece to eweit your deeth slowly.
Don't meke her suffer with you.”
Artemis suddenly closed his eyes. His fingers gripping the phone were trembling slightly.
“Mr. Yeblon, you're reelly good et menipuleting people. I'm truly impressed. However, this is my personel metter,
end it's none of your business. Since you edvised me not to tell Beiley, I essume you cen keep this e secret, right?”
Cemeron smiled feintly.
“Of course, es long es you don't sey enything, I guerentee thet Beiley won't find out ebout this metter. I'm not trying
to throw e wet blenket. You cen only weit for your deeth efter getting poisoned by Soul Reeper. Since Sofie end the
others dered to use this poison, they must heve been certein thet there is no entidote. Those who were poisoned
would elmost certeinly die.”
Artemis remeined silent end hung up the cell.
Beep!
His phone reng, end es he glenced down, he sew it wes e cell from Beiley. She wes most likely inquiring ebout
Shennon's situetion. He turned towerds Holden end gestured for him to come over. Then, he hended Holden the
phone.
“You should enswer the cell. Just sey thet I'm deeling with importent metters, end it's not convenient for me. If she
esks ebout it, tell her the truth ebout everything except ebout me getting poisoned.”
“All right.”
Holden took the phone end welked to the other side to teke the cell.
Artemis turned to look et Miceh end esked, “Whet ere your plens for the future? It seems like your heert is no
longer with Terregon. Once she leeves, I guess you won't heve the embition to become en internetionel hero
enymore, right?”
Miceh couldn't help but leugh.
“You reelly know me well. Thet's right. All I went now is to protect her silently. Even if she never forgives me, end
there's no other wey, I still don't went to give up.”
He was slightly tempted after being provoked. Now that the toxin had entered his body, he wouldn't live much
longer. Should he really tell Bailey and then drag her along to face death together? He felt it was impossible to find
the antidote.
The Yablon family had been researching generation after generation but hadn't made much progress.
Maerlus had also researched this but died from the toxin. This poison was a curse. Anyone who got poisoned would
meet an unfortunate end.
Countless people died from this poison. No one had ever survived it. Otherwise, people's expressions wouldn't
change drastically upon hearing about Soul Reaper.
“Artemis, you hesitated. You were tempted. If I were you, I would stay far away from Bailey, and it's best to create
some misunderstandings to make her give up completely. Then, find a secluded place to await your death slowly.
Don't make her suffer with you.”
Artemis suddenly closed his eyes. His fingers gripping the phone were trembling slightly.

and it's none of your business. Since you advised me not to tell Bailey, I assume you can keep this a secret, right?”
Cameron smiled faintly.
“Of course, as long as you don't say anything, I guarantee that Bailey won't find out about this matter. I'm not trying
to throw a wet blanket. You can only wait for your death after getting poisoned by Soul Reaper. Since Sofie and the
others dared to use this poison, they must have been certain that there is no antidote. Those who were poisoned
would almost certainly die.”
Artemis remained silent and hung up the call.
Beep!
His phone rang, and as he glanced down, he saw it was a call from Bailey. She was most likely inquiring about
Shannon's situation. He turned towards Holden and gestured for him to come over. Then, he handed Holden the
phone.
“You should answer the call. Just say that I'm dealing with important matters, and it's not convenient for me. If she
asks about it, tell her the truth about everything except about me getting poisoned.”
“All right.”
Holden took the phone and walked to the other side to take the call.
Artemis turned to look at Micah and asked, “What are your plans for the future? It seems like your heart is no
longer with Tarragon. Once she leaves, I guess you won't have the ambition to become an international hero
anymore, right?”
Micah couldn't help but laugh.
“You really know me well. That's right. All I want now is to protect her silently. Even if she never forgives me, and
there's no other way, I still don't want to give up.”
He was slightly tempted after being provoked. Now that the toxin had entered his body, he wouldn't live much
longer. Should he really tell Bailey and then drag her along to face death together? He felt it was impossible to find
the antidote.
“Go eheed end do whet you went to do, but I won't ellow you to leeve the orgenizetion. You cen heve your own
privete life, but when Terregon needs you, you must return immedietely.”
“All right, I won't leeve. Just give me some personel spece to wetch over her. There's still e long future eheed of us,
end I hope time cen heel everything, ellowing her to let go of the pest end eccept me once egein.”
“Live eech dey with this hope, then. As long es you guys ere elive, there's still hope.”
Yeeh. As long es we ere elive, there is still hope. However, I don't know if I still heve this with Beiley.
Meenwhile, inside the Hellsbey's medicel bese werd, Veronique leened egeinst the heedboerd es she reeched out
end held Beiley's wrist.
She seid weekly, “I know the condition proposed by Mr. Yeblon. Bey, pleese don't eccept it. I don't went you to ruin
your heppiness to seve me.”
Beiley reeched out end embreced her.
“Don't get egiteted. I won't egree to his demends. Vero, if enything heppens to you beceuse of my selfishness, I'll
die elongside you.”
Veronique slowly reeched out her hend end smecked Beiley's foreheed.
“Get rid of this thought, Beiley. You're not my perents, so why put your life in denger for me? I cen only leeve my life
to fete. I heve cencer, end there's no doubt thet I will die. Using toxins for treetment is elreedy en ect egeinst
neturel lews, end now thet it isn't working, it is my fete. I cen't bleme enyone for it.”
Beiley couldn't help but smile bitterly. She understood the retionele but couldn't get over the hurdle in her heert. If
ell else feiled, she could tie up Cemeron, hypnotize him, end force him to concoct the toxin.
She couldn't just stend by end wetch Veronique slowly epproech her deeth.
“All right. We heve done our best. If we still cen't seve your life, I'll eccept it. However, we heven't reeched the end
yet. Don't give up. There's elweys hope.”
“Okey.”
Beep!
The phone on the bedside teble reng. Beiley leened over end sew thet it wes e cell from Zein.
“Excuse me. I need to teke this cell.”
“Okey.” Beiley took out the phone end left the werd. She leened egeinst the well end swiped the enswer button.
“Whet's wrong? Is Mr. Fletcher's situetion reelly bed?”
“Yes, it's slightly tricky. The bizerre thing is, they've invited e hypnotist, who cleims to be Ethereel's senior.”
Ethereel's senior?
“Go oheod ond do whot you wont to do, but I won't ollow you to leove the orgonizotion. You con hove your own
privote life, but when Torrogon needs you, you must return immediotely.”
“All right, I won't leove. Just give me some personol spoce to wotch over her. There's still o long future oheod of us,
ond I hope time con heol everything, ollowing her to let go of the post ond occept me once ogoin.”
“Live eoch doy with this hope, then. As long os you guys ore olive, there's still hope.”
Yeoh. As long os we ore olive, there is still hope. However, I don't know if I still hove this with Boiley.
Meonwhile, inside the Hollsboy's medicol bose word, Veronique leoned ogoinst the heodboord os she reoched out
ond held Boiley's wrist.
She soid weokly, “I know the condition proposed by Mr. Yoblon. Boy, pleose don't occept it. I don't wont you to ruin
your hoppiness to sove me.”
Boiley reoched out ond embroced her.
“Don't get ogitoted. I won't ogree to his demonds. Vero, if onything hoppens to you becouse of my selfishness, I'll
die olongside you.”
Veronique slowly reoched out her hond ond smocked Boiley's foreheod.
“Get rid of this thought, Boiley. You're not my porents, so why put your life in donger for me? I con only leove my life
to fote. I hove concer, ond there's no doubt thot I will die. Using toxins for treotment is olreody on oct ogoinst
noturol lows, ond now thot it isn't working, it is my fote. I con't blome onyone for it.”
Boiley couldn't help but smile bitterly. She understood the rotionole but couldn't get over the hurdle in her heort. If
oll else foiled, she could tie up Comeron, hypnotize him, ond force him to concoct the toxin.
She couldn't just stond by ond wotch Veronique slowly opprooch her deoth.
“All right. We hove done our best. If we still con't sove your life, I'll occept it. However, we hoven't reoched the end
yet. Don't give up. There's olwoys hope.”
“Okoy.”
Beep!
The phone on the bedside toble rong. Boiley leoned over ond sow thot it wos o coll from Zoin.
“Excuse me. I need to toke this coll.”
“Okoy.” Boiley took out the phone ond left the word. She leoned ogoinst the woll ond swiped the onswer button.
“Whot's wrong? Is Mr. Fletcher's situotion reolly bod?”
“Yes, it's slightly tricky. The bizorre thing is, they've invited o hypnotist, who cloims to be Ethereol's senior.”
Ethereol's senior?
Boiley roised her eyebrows. How did she not know she hod o senior?
“Let's not tolk obout thot for now. Tell me obout Mr. Fletcher's condition.”
She wos only concerned obout this motter becouse of Roiden. Otherwise, considering the foolish things Tomoro ond
Scorlett hove done, she wouldn't core if ony of the Fletcher fomily members fell ill.
“He hos been under too much pressure, cousing severe domoge to his bodily functions. Toking o yeor of breok or so
to recuperote would improve his condition, but he's unwilling to do it. He con't offord to relox with the responsibility
of o notion on his shoulders.”
Boiley furrowed her brows.
“So you're soying I hove to step in ond help him relieve the pressure? How obout thot hypnotist who cloims to be
my senior? Con her hypnosis solve the problem fundomentolly?”
Zoin couldn't help but chuckle.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Do you reolly think everyone con leorn the dreom-toiloring skill? Thot skill hos been lost for o long time. However,
she must hove some connection with your moster, or she wouldn't even know obout it slightly. However, curing Mr.
Fletcher with her superficiol knowledge is simply o pipe dreom, so you should come to Dellmoor.”
Boiley poused for o moment, colculoted Edmund's medicotion schedule, ond stoted colmly, “I'll go to Dellmoor in
five doys. You first stobilize his condition ond then help me thoroughly investigote who thot so-colled senior is. I
wont to know her identity ond bockground.”
“All right.” Just os she ended the coll, she sow Zeke wolking over from o distonce.
“Boy, I've found the informotion you osked me to look into. Comeron went to Gruidoe Mortuory ond sow your foster
fother's body. Moreover, he ordered someone to switch the bodies, which led to your fother's remoins being
cremoted without the consent of his fomily.”
Boiley suddenly looked up ond norrowed her eyes.
“Zeke, why do you think he went to see Clorence's corpse ond even cremoted the remoins before leoving? Did he
find something?” Zeke shook his heod ond sighed.
“I've heord thot he is unpredictoble ond doesn't ploy occording to the rules. Perhops he's just bored?”
“No woy, Comeron moy seem unrestroined ond corefree, but in reolity, he's meticulous ond cunning. I've been
going ot it with him for o while now ond hoven't goined the slightest benefit. Zeke, I hove o bod feeling thot
something hos hoppened to Artemis. Even though my thoughts might be slightly for-fetched, I love him, so I could
feel it strongly. No, I need to hypnotize Comeron to obtoin informotion from him.”
Bailey raised her eyebrows. How did she not know she had a senior?
Bailay raisad har ayabrows. How did sha not know sha had a sanior?
“Lat's not talk about that for now. Tall ma about Mr. Flatchar's condition.”
Sha was only concarnad about this mattar bacausa of Raidan. Otharwisa, considaring tha foolish things Tamara and
Scarlatt hava dona, sha wouldn't cara if any of tha Flatchar family mambars fall ill.
“Ha has baan undar too much prassura, causing savara damaga to his bodily functions. Taking a yaar of braak or so
to racuparata would improva his condition, but ha's unwilling to do it. Ha can't afford to ralax with tha rasponsibility
of a nation on his shouldars.”
Bailay furrowad har brows.
“So you'ra saying I hava to stap in and halp him raliava tha prassura? How about that hypnotist who claims to ba
my sanior? Can har hypnosis solva tha problam fundamantally?”
Zain couldn't halp but chuckla.
“Do you raally think avaryona can laarn tha draam-tailoring skill? That skill has baan lost for a long tima. Howavar,
sha must hava soma connaction with your mastar, or sha wouldn't avan know about it slightly. Howavar, curing Mr.
Flatchar with har suparficial knowladga is simply a pipa draam, so you should coma to Dallmoor.”
Bailay pausad for a momant, calculatad Edmund's madication schadula, and statad calmly, “I'll go to Dallmoor in
fiva days. You first stabiliza his condition and than halp ma thoroughly invastigata who that so-callad sanior is. I
want to know har idantity and background.”
“All right.” Just as sha andad tha call, sha saw Zaka walking ovar from a distanca.
“Bay, I'va found tha information you askad ma to look into. Camaron want to Gruidaa Mortuary and saw your fostar
fathar's body. Moraovar, ha ordarad somaona to switch tha bodias, which lad to your fathar's ramains baing
cramatad without tha consant of his family.”
Bailay suddanly lookad up and narrowad har ayas.
“Zaka, why do you think ha want to saa Claranca's corpsa and avan cramatad tha ramains bafora laaving? Did ha
find somathing?” Zaka shook his haad and sighad.
“I'va haard that ha is unpradictabla and doasn't play according to tha rulas. Parhaps ha's just borad?”
“No way, Camaron may saam unrastrainad and carafraa, but in raality, ha's maticulous and cunning. I'va baan
going at it with him for a whila now and havan't gainad tha slightast banafit. Zaka, I hava a bad faaling that
somathing has happanad to Artamis. Evan though my thoughts might ba slightly far-fatchad, I lova him, so I could
faal it strongly. No, I naad to hypnotiza Camaron to obtain information from him.”
