Chapter 731


    Yvette hadpletely lost her mind.


    I''m so miserable and might end up in the depths of hell. How can I let this wretched woman have a


    peaceful ending? How can she possibly live a happy life?


    Ignoring the excruciating pain surging through her body, she shouted at the two of them, “Your union is


    destined to have an unhappy ending because there are insurmountable obstacles between you. Even a


    life has been sacrificed—the life of your own son.”


    When Shannon heard that, her body trembled violently. If it weren''t for acting, she would never get


    close to Micah. Because the moment she got close to him, all the past pain would be infinitely


    magnified, causing her immense heartache.


    “Haha! Shannon, you''re trembling, resisting, and afraid. Your body speaks more truth than your words.


    Don''t even mention staying together. Even if you get a little closer to him, you can feel the bone-chilling


    pain. How can you even think about happiness?”


    Micah slightly furrowed his brows, a hint of hesitation shing through his sharp gaze. In the next


    moment, his gaze gradually became resolute. With one arm wrapped around Shannon''s waist and the


    other hand cradling the back of her head, he suddenly deepened the kiss. Shannon slowly closed her


    eyes.


    After kissing passionately for dozens of seconds, Shannon suddenly pushed him away and said


    breathlessly, “Let''s go back to our ce, to our room.”


    She spoke ambiguously, and Micah cooperated by reaching out to touch her cheek, whispering softly,


    “All right, let''s go.”


    After saying that, he scooped her up in his arms and strode toward the door. Yvettepletely broke


    down. She wanted to stand up and stop them. However, with even the slightest movement,


    excruciating pain would surge through her body.


    “Micah, Shannon, you two will be cursed. You are destined to be a sinful cmity and will die without


    descendants,” she cursed.


    Hearing that, Shannon let out a sneer.


    She had already lost her uterus, so she couldn''t conceive children anymore. There was no need for


    Yvette to curse her. After they left the secret chamber, Shannon''s face regained its usual coldness, and


    she said softly,


    “Now that the y is over, can you put me down? Or do you really want to carry me to your room and


    tie me up?”


    Micah suddenly stopped in his tracks, lowered his head to nce at her, and couldn''t help but reveal a


    bitter smile. He bent down and gently ced her on the ground.


    “If this is truly a dream, I wish to never wake up. But reality is cruel, and in the end, my desires remain


    unfulfilled. Once the dream ends, everything turns to nothing.”


    After steadying herself, Shannon looked at him coldly and said calmly, “Now that Yvette has met her


    deserved fate, let''s put an end to the grievances between us. From now on, we owe each other


    nothing. Let''s respect each other and live our own lives in peace.”


    With that, she turned around and left. The next moment, Micah hurriedly reached out to hold her.


    “I promise I won''t disturb your life anymore. Can I just silently watch over you?” Shannon turned to look


    at him, staring at him for a long while before she gentlyughed.


    “Micah, I no longer have a uterus, so I can''t bear children for you or carry on the family line. Why do


    you still want to look over me?” Micah''s heart was broken by that single sentence.


    She has changed. In the past, although she was an assassin, she was empathetic and understanding.


    But now she''s like a hedgehog. Anyone who gets close to her ends up covered in scratches and


    wounds.


    “Fine. I''ll silently watch over you without needing your consent. Wherever you go, I''ll follow.”


    Shannon broke free from his grip and turned to walk away, saying as she left, “That''s your business,


    not mine. From now on, you are nothing more than a stranger to me. Even if you appear before me, I


    will only treat you as if you were thin air.”


    Inside Hallsbay''s medical baseboratory, Bailey looked at the container in front of her and said to


    Cameron,


    “This is the cancer cell that Zain has selected to be injected into Veronique''s body. The two types of


    cancer cells will counteract each other, significantly weakening their vitality. You should try using the


    specially formted toxin to see if it can eliminate the cancer cells.”


    A hint of approval shed in Cameron''s eyes.

    “A few years ago, Zain was nothing but an impulsive young man. I never expected him to progress at


    such an astonishing speed in just a couple of years. He''s truly a medical prodigy. You must train him


    further.”


    Bailey gave him a cold nce and asked, “Have you decided on which toxin to use? As long as it can


    completely kill the cancer cells, there won''t be any chance of recurrence in the future. The rest is up to


    you.”


    Hearing that, Cameron touched his nose, fell silent for a moment, and then cautiously said, “I can think


    of a few toxins, but can your friend''s body handle them? I''m afraid that once I administer the toxin, she


    might die instantly.”


    Bailey red at him fiercely and sneered.


    “Don''t worry, Mr. Yablon. She won''t be lonely since you''ll be apanying her to the grave.”


    Cameron couldn''t help but roll his eyes after hearing that.


    This vicious woman!


    “Leave now. I''ll prepare the toxin first and give it a try.”


    Bailey walked toward the entrance and said, “All right, thank you for your help. Much appreciated.”


    “Remember the promise you made to me, or else... Once this toxin enters your friend''s body, she won''t


    survive without my antidote.”


    Bailey gritted her teeth and uttered slowly, “All right. You''re myckey now.”


    Just as she stepped out of theboratory, her phone in her pocket started ringing. Upon checking, it


    was a call from Artemis. She quickly swiped the answer button and anxiously asked, “Artemis, are you


    okay?”


    Artemisughed and replied,


    “Why? Are you hoping for something to happen to me so you can remarry?”


    Bailey couldn''t help but retort, “You haven''t even married me yet. Even if I ran off with another man, it


    wouldn''t count as remarrying.”


    “From the tone of your voice, you sound like you''re eager to marry me.”


    “That''s right. Just a couple of days ago, I told my brother not to act all high and mighty as an elder


    brother-inw. If you go to the Shurmer residence to propose, he must agree without hesitation.”


    A soft chuckle came through the phone.


    “Now I''m a little worried about my daughter. What if, when she grows up, some boy lures her away?


    Will she also turn her back on us like this?” Bailey chuckled softly.


    “They say that a mother-inw can urately judge a son-inw at first sight. If you''re not satisfied,


    just break his legs with a stick.”


    What a wonderful future!


    Artemis fell into silence. After a long while, he finally piped up, “Bailey, take good care of yourself. I


    might not be able to return that soon.”


    The smile on Bailey''s face stiffened, and she frowned as she asked, “Didn''t you say you''de back


    after taking care of the headquarters'' matters, and then we''d deal with Mr. Doyle together?”


    “Something unexpected came up, and we must deal with Mr. Doyle first. Otherwise, it''ll be difficult once


    he joins forces with Sofie and Philip. If you''re really worried about me, I can send someone to Hallsbay


    to bring you to Tarragon Headquarters.”


    Artemis cleverly used reverse psychology. Bailey pursed her lips and said with a strained voice, “But I


    can''t leave now. With Edmund, Veronique, and Raiden''s father here, I can''t afford to leave them for the


    time being.”
