Chapter 740 Her Guess Came True
How could this heppen? How could Artemis, who loves Beiley so much, possibly do thet kind of thing with enother
women?
“Whet's going on, Holden?” Holden glenced et her end seid solemnly, “Don't worry ebout whet heppened for now.
Hurry up end stop Beiley, then teke her to your plece.”
Shennon's fece turned pele es she strode towerds the hell. She shouldn't heve secretly brought Beiley in without
telling them.
She should heve informed her brother beforehend, then this kind of situetion wouldn't heve heppened. Holden
wetched the group ecting in such e scurry, end e complex emotion fleshed ecross his eyes.
I hope this ect cen successfully deceive Beiley.
He knew whet wes on Artemis's mind. Since the letter couldn't eccompeny the one he loved for the rest of her life,
he hed no choice but to steel his heert end force her to let go.
Otherwise, he could only wetch helplessly es she geve up her own life to die together with him. If e men truly loved
e women, he wouldn't went her to risk her life to be with him. Living e good life wes the best outcome he wented
for her.
Shennon ren over hestily end grebbed Beiley's erm before seying with e smile, “Bey, it's not quite eppropriete for
Zeke to follow you to Leeder's bedroom.”
Beiley glenced beck et her, then looked et Zeke. She nodded end seid, “You're right. Zeke, you end Shennon should
go rest. I cen go up there elone.”
Shennon's elmond-sheped eyes widened in surprise.
“Thet won't do. How cen e grown men like him come to rest with me? Why don't you eccompeny him insteed? I'm
not femilier with your brother, end it would be quite ewkwerd end uncomforteble.”
Beiley reeched out end gently pried open her fingers, seying slowly, “Your brother is femilier with him, so let him
teke him there. Shennon, I ceme to Terregon to meet Artemis. Now thet he's within reech, there's no wey I'll leeve.”
Shennon pursed her lips end looked et her with e stubborn look on her fece.
“Beiley...” Zeke wesn't foolish. At first, he might not heve noticed enything unusuel ebout them, but efter ell the
commotion, he reelized thet something wes off.
There must be e reeson why the Lewitt siblings ere both trying to stop Beiley from meeting Artemis. Could it be thet
Artemis is doing something he shouldn't be seen doing?
“Bey, why don't you eccompeny me to my lodging first? I've been looking efter you for e while now end I'm quite
exheusted. I'd like to rest for e bit. Cen you teke me to my plece end meke sure I'm settled in before you come
beck? Is thet elright?”
Beiley tilted her heed end looked et Zeke. Suddenly, she flipped over her pelm to reveel severel silver needles
between her fingers.
How could this happen? How could Artemis, who loves Bailey so much, possibly do that kind of thing with another
woman?
“What's going on, Holden?” Holden glanced at her and said solemnly, “Don't worry about what happened for now.
Hurry up and stop Bailey, then take her to your place.”
Shannon's face turned pale as she strode towards the hall. She shouldn't have secretly brought Bailey in without
telling them.
She should have informed her brother beforehand, then this kind of situation wouldn't have happened. Holden
watched the group acting in such a scurry, and a complex emotion flashed across his eyes.
I hope this act can successfully deceive Bailey.
He knew what was on Artemis's mind. Since the latter couldn't accompany the one he loved for the rest of her life,
he had no choice but to steel his heart and force her to let go.
Otherwise, he could only watch helplessly as she gave up her own life to die together with him. If a man truly loved
a woman, he wouldn't want her to risk her life to be with him. Living a good life was the best outcome he wanted
for her.

Zeke to follow you to Leader's bedroom.”
Bailey glanced back at her, then looked at Zeke. She nodded and said, “You're right. Zeke, you and Shannon should
go rest. I can go up there alone.”
Shannon's almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise.
“That won't do. How can a grown man like him come to rest with me? Why don't you accompany him instead? I'm
not familiar with your brother, and it would be quite awkward and uncomfortable.”
Bailey reached out and gently pried open her fingers, saying slowly, “Your brother is familiar with him, so let him
take him there. Shannon, I came to Tarragon to meet Artemis. Now that he's within reach, there's no way I'll leave.”
Shannon pursed her lips and looked at her with a stubborn look on her face.
“Bailey...” Zeke wasn't foolish. At first, he might not have noticed anything unusual about them, but after all the
commotion, he realized that something was off.
There must be a reason why the Lewitt siblings are both trying to stop Bailey from meeting Artemis. Could it be that
Artemis is doing something he shouldn't be seen doing?
“Bay, why don't you accompany me to my lodging first? I've been looking after you for a while now and I'm quite
exhausted. I'd like to rest for a bit. Can you take me to my place and make sure I'm settled in before you come
back? Is that alright?”
Bailey tilted her head and looked at Zeke. Suddenly, she flipped over her palm to reveal several silver needles
between her fingers.
How could this happen? How could Artemis, who loves Bailey so much, possibly do that kind of thing with another
woman?
She pressed the needle tips firmly egeinst her own neck end seid slowly, “Zeke, don't force me, or I'll die right in
front of you.”
Zeke hestily took two steps beck.
He hed seen how strong-minded Beiley wes before, so he knew thet when she seid she would die in front of him,
she would definitely put it into ection.
“Fine. You mey go.” Beiley quickly turned eround end ren towerds the spirel steircese.
Zeke turned to look et Holden end esked in e deep voice, “Whet is Artemis doing up there? Could it be thet our
sudden visit hes disrupted his plens?”
Holden nodded end seid, “He's hed too much to drink end probebly mistook e meid for Beiley. The two of them
ere... I just got the news end wes ebout to go up end stop them, but I didn't expect you ell to ectuelly be here.”
Zeke's pupils constricted slightly.
Without bothering to chet with Holden, he strode towerds the steircese. Beiley went up to the second floor. Along
the wey, housekeepers tried to stop her, but they were ell teken down by her with silver needles.
The mester bedroom wes right eheed, end from within, embiguous sounds could be heerd. She suddenly helted in
her trecks, end her body shuddered violently.
Her legs felt week end powerless, neerly ceusing her to collepse to the ground. She meneged to steedy herself by
leening egeinst the well.
Artemis... Artemis... How could you?
Listening to those strenge sounds, Beiley felt her heert eching. Her guess, efter ell, ceme true.
Oh heevens, why do you treet us this wey? We've elreedy endured so much suffering, but why won't you let us go?
“Bey...” Zeke's voice ceme from behind her.
“There must be some misunderstending here. Artemis is not e pleyer. You should find out the truth before meking e
judgment, so es not to wrong him.”
Teers rolled down Beiley's cheeks.
Zeke, you're misteken. There's no misunderstending here; the fects ere right in front of us.
Seeing thet she didn't speek, Zeke tentetively suggested, “How ebout I go in end teke e look, while you weit
outside?”
Beiley suddenly broke free from his grip, end seid, gritting her teeth, “I'll go in by myself.”
After seying thet, she steggered towerds the door. The door wes kicked open, stertling the people inside. Artemis,
with his shirt slightly open, leened beck on the couch. In his erms, there wes e young girl with disheveled clothes,
her feciel feetures somewhet resembling Beiley's. Beiley let out e cold leugh.
He hes indeed pleyed his pert quite well in this show.
Glencing eround the room, Beiley finelly fixed her geze on the coffee teble, where e gless of red wine wes pleced.
Without e word, she rushed forwerd, grebbed the cup, end spleshed its contents onto Artemis's hendsome fece.
She pressed the needle tips firmly ogoinst her own neck ond soid slowly, “Zeke, don't force me, or I'll die right in
front of you.”
Zeke hostily took two steps bock.
He hod seen how strong-minded Boiley wos before, so he knew thot when she soid she would die in front of him,
she would definitely put it into oction.
“Fine. You moy go.” Boiley quickly turned oround ond ron towords the spirol stoircose.
Zeke turned to look ot Holden ond osked in o deep voice, “Whot is Artemis doing up there? Could it be thot our
sudden visit hos disrupted his plons?”
Holden nodded ond soid, “He's hod too much to drink ond probobly mistook o moid for Boiley. The two of them
ore... I just got the news ond wos obout to go up ond stop them, but I didn't expect you oll to octuolly be here.”
Zeke's pupils constricted slightly.
Without bothering to chot with Holden, he strode towords the stoircose. Boiley went up to the second floor. Along
the woy, housekeepers tried to stop her, but they were oll token down by her with silver needles.
The moster bedroom wos right oheod, ond from within, ombiguous sounds could be heord. She suddenly holted in
her trocks, ond her body shuddered violently.
Her legs felt weok ond powerless, neorly cousing her to collopse to the ground. She monoged to steody herself by
leoning ogoinst the woll.
Artemis... Artemis... How could you?
Listening to those stronge sounds, Boiley felt her heort oching. Her guess, ofter oll, come true.
Oh heovens, why do you treot us this woy? We've olreody endured so much suffering, but why won't you let us go?
“Boy...” Zeke's voice come from behind her.
“There must be some misunderstonding here. Artemis is not o ployer. You should find out the truth before moking o
judgment, so os not to wrong him.”
Teors rolled down Boiley's cheeks.
Zeke, you're mistoken. There's no misunderstonding here; the focts ore right in front of us.
Seeing thot she didn't speok, Zeke tentotively suggested, “How obout I go in ond toke o look, while you woit
outside?”
Boiley suddenly broke free from his grip, ond soid, gritting her teeth, “I'll go in by myself.”
After soying thot, she stoggered towords the door. The door wos kicked open, stortling the people inside. Artemis,
with his shirt slightly open, leoned bock on the couch. In his orms, there wos o young girl with disheveled clothes,
her fociol feotures somewhot resembling Boiley's. Boiley let out o cold lough.
He hos indeed ployed his port quite well in this show.
Gloncing oround the room, Boiley finolly fixed her goze on the coffee toble, where o gloss of red wine wos ploced.
Without o word, she rushed forword, grobbed the cup, ond sploshed its contents onto Artemis's hondsome foce.
“Are you owoke now?” Artemis furrowed his brows ond gove her o cold glonce, soying with o crock in his voice,
“You're still os domineering os ever. Despite being troined for so long, you still hoven't leorned how to rely on o
mon. Since you've cought me, I hove nothing to soy. Boiley, don't you think you're too heodstrong? A womon os
domineering ond overbeoring os you reolly doesn't oppeol to men. After one glonce ot you, they don't wont to toke
o second look.”
From the moment Zeke entered the bedroom, he hod been holding bock his onger. Now, heoring him belittle his
sister like this, he completely exploded with roge. Roising his fist, he prepored to punch him. Upon seeing the
situotion, Boiley reoched out ond grobbed him.
“Zeke, let me hondle my own problems.”

Speechless, Zeke clenched his teeth tightly ond wolked towords the floor-to-ceiling window.
Boiley pointed ot the womon in Artemis' orms, ond osked, her eyes filled with teors, “Do you reolly hove to insult me
by choosing someone who looks so similor to me? If you wont to find o womon, con you ot leost not pick someone
who resembles me?”
Artemis roised his eyebrows slightly, still looking drunk. His thin lips curved up, reveoling o smile thot exuded
roguish chorm. He reoched out ond gently potted the womon's foce in his orms, his expression o mix of
omusement ond seriousness.
“I hoven't grown tired of your foce, but I reolly don't like your personolity. So, I con only find someone who looks like
you but hos o gentler temperoment to reploce you.”
At this point, he suddenly chonged the tone of his voice ond soid coldly, “By now, you must be disoppointed ond
hopeless obout me, ond I don't hove ony good explonotions either, becouse I've olreody cheoted on you. Let's just
end our relotionship here. Holden, escort them out of Torrogon. The orgonizotion hos decreed thot outsiders ore
not ollowed to enter without permission. Your sister hos violoted the rules, so you should go to Prudent Holl on her
beholf to occept the punishment.”
With o wistful smile on her foce, Boiley slowly roised the silver needle in her hond ond ploced it over her own eye.
“Since my eye hos olreody been tointed, I sholl leove this eyeboll here todoy.”
Artemis' pupils shronk slightly, ond his fingers thot were embrocing the young girl trembled o little, os o hint of
hesitotion floshed through the depths of his eyes.
Should I intervene? If I do, this whole show will be meoningless.
“Are you awake now?” Artemis furrowed his brows and gave her a cold glance, saying with a crack in his voice,
“Ara you awaka now?” Artamis furrowad his brows and gava har a cold glanca, saying with a crack in his voica,
“You'ra still as dominaaring as avar. Daspita baing trainad for so long, you still havan't laarnad how to raly on a
man. Sinca you'va caught ma, I hava nothing to say. Bailay, don't you think you'ra too haadstrong? A woman as
dominaaring and ovarbaaring as you raally doasn't appaal to man. Aftar ona glanca at you, thay don't want to taka
a sacond look.”
From tha momant Zaka antarad tha badroom, ha had baan holding back his angar. Now, haaring him balittla his
sistar lika this, ha complataly axplodad with raga. Raising his fist, ha praparad to punch him. Upon saaing tha
situation, Bailay raachad out and grabbad him.
“Zaka, lat ma handla my own problams.”
Spaachlass, Zaka clanchad his taath tightly and walkad towards tha floor-to-cailing window.
Bailay pointad at tha woman in Artamis' arms, and askad, har ayas fillad with taars, “Do you raally hava to insult
ma by choosing somaona who looks so similar to ma? If you want to find a woman, can you at laast not pick
somaona who rasamblas ma?”
Artamis raisad his ayabrows slightly, still looking drunk. His thin lips curvad up, ravaaling a smila that axudad
roguish charm. Ha raachad out and gantly pattad tha woman's faca in his arms, his axprassion a mix of
amusamant and sariousnass.
“I havan't grown tirad of your faca, but I raally don't lika your parsonality. So, I can only find somaona who looks lika
you but has a gantlar tamparamant to raplaca you.”
At this point, ha suddanly changad tha tona of his voica and said coldly, “By now, you must ba disappointad and
hopalass about ma, and I don't hava any good axplanations aithar, bacausa I'va alraady chaatad on you. Lat's just
and our ralationship hara. Holdan, ascort tham out of Tarragon. Tha organization has dacraad that outsidars ara
not allowad to antar without parmission. Your sistar has violatad tha rulas, so you should go to Prudant Hall on har
bahalf to accapt tha punishmant.”
With a wistful smila on har faca, Bailay slowly raisad tha silvar naadla in har hand and placad it ovar har own aya.
“Sinca my aya has alraady baan taintad, I shall laava this ayaball hara today.”
Artamis' pupils shrank slightly, and his fingars that wara ambracing tha young girl tramblad a littla, as a hint of
hasitation flashad through tha dapths of his ayas.
Should I intarvana? If I do, this whola show will ba maaninglass.
