Chapter 750
Zeke still felt somewhat hesitant.
“How about waiting a few more days? She''s been working hard to find the antidote. Who knows, she
might find it. It would be best if you had faith in her. If she can''t find it, we can give her the memory loss
pill.”
Artemis waved his hand casually and said, “There is no cure for the Grim Reaper. This is the
conclusion reached by many predecessors who have spent their entire lives researching for a remedy.
Now that she only has about ten days left, I don''t want her to bear such immense pressure. Knowing
that there is no solution, why force it?”
Zeke sighed softly, “All right, since you''ve decided, I won''t say much more. After all, it was me who
suggested erasing her memory.”
“If I were to advise you not to go through with it, it would be quite hypocritical of me. I don''t want to see
my younger sister follow you, as she is still young.”
Artemis nodded and said, “I understand. I never thought about asking her to live and die with me. I
can''t let I burden her. In that case, then...”
At this point, his gaze fell on the porcin bottle in his hand.
After silence, he added, “Let''s give her the freedom she deserves. She''s still young, with a promising
future ahead. Without her memories and the moments we shared, she can probably start a new life.”
“So, should you add the medicine, or should I?” Artemis curved his lips into a smile and said, “Let me
do it. It''s been a long time since I cooked for her. Tonight, I''ll cook onest meal for her. You go and
arrange our departure. Wait for my message.”
“All right.”
Zeke slowly stood up and strolled toward the door. After taking a few steps, it seemed like something
came to mind, and they suddenly stopped in their tracks.
“Right. Should we inform the Luther family about your situation?”
Artemis hesitated momentarily, saying, “I''ll contact Simon and ask him toe to Tarragon
Headquarters. There are some matters I need to rify. Otherwise, the Luther family will be in chaos
after I leave.”
“All right, as long as you have a n, Artemis. I hope we''ll meet again in the future.”
Artemis couldn''t help but let out a bitterugh. If there was a chance to meet again, why would they
choose this path of no return? The so-called miracle was nothing more than self-deception and fooling
others. Throughout history, not everyone who had the Soul Reaper survived. The wheels of fate had
reached their end, and there was no turning back. Why struggle against the inevitable?
“Take good care of Bailey. Edmund, Raiden, and Cameron are all-powerful in the international arena.
Entrusting her to any of them would put my mind at ease.”
... ... At Holden''s residence... Inside the bedroom... Bailey examined the eyes of the young girl whom
Shannon had saved. The bandage was unwrapped, revealing a messy mass of blood and flesh inside.
“Does it hurt?” She appeared to be about the same size as Susan, just at the age when she should be
nestled in her parents'' arms, acting spoiled and pampered. Yet, she had to endure such suffering.
If it weren''t for Shannon''s intervention, I would probably have been sent to Intel Ind to fend for
myself by now. She was starting to miss her daughter.
She wondered if she could see her children again in the years she had left to live. Also, she wondered
if they would resent her when they found out she had left them behind to follow their father.
“Bailey, how''s the situation? Can her eyes still be cured?” The sound of Shannon''s voice echoed in
Bailey''s ears, pulling back his wandering thoughts.
The little girl looked up at her, her eyes filled with a bright light.
“Mrs. Luther, can my eyes still be treated?” Bailey smiled and gently rubbed her head, reassuring her
warmly,
“All you need is a new cornea and lens. It''s not a big issue. This isn''t a congenital disability, and it can
be treated.”
She added, “However, I''ve been too busy these past few days and don''t have the time. First, let
Tarragon''s doctor perform surgery on you to remove your damaged eyeball and cornea. After you''ve
recovered, we''ll perform the transnt surgery to restore your vision to its original state.”
Bailey''s words were meant tofort her. Once something was damaged, it remained destroyed. Even
a broken porcin bottle, let alone the human body, could not be restored to its original state.
She could make her other eye appear no different from an ordinary person''s, but its vision might be
impossible to restore. Shannon knew Bailey all too well. Seeing the tenderness in her eyes, he could
roughly understand what she meant.
“Bay, I appreciate your help. Just do your best. No matter the oue, I''ll face it with her.”
Bailey waved his hand and said, “No need to be polite with me. She will recoverpletely. I believe
the heavens will favor your daughter.”
After saying that, she slowly squatted by the bed, smiling at the little girl, and softly said, “From now on,
you can consider Shannon, your mother. I believe she will be a good elder for you.”
Then, she continued, “Your mother has endured so much hardship, and her spirit has been crushed. I
hope you can bring her happiness and peace in theing years, allowing her to live afortable
life.”
The little girl nced at Bailey, then looked at the elegant and smiling Shannon standing by the bed
and obediently nodded.
“From now on, she will be my mother, and I willpletely forget everything from the past. Together
with Mommy, we will start a new life.”

“Good.” Bailey reached out and pinched her cheek, smiling.
“I have a daughter, too, about your age. When possible, I''ll have your mom take you to Hallsbay. I
believe you two will be good friends.”
The little girl reached out and gently held her hand, hesitatingly saying, “I don''t have a name, ma''am.
Could you please give me a new one?”
Bailey instinctively looked at Shannon. Seeing her nod in agreement, she couldn''t help but smile and
say, “All right, let me think. How about Dawn Lewitt? It means full of vitality and hope. May it also brings
a brand new beginning to your life.”
Actually, she wanted to name her Dawn Neyman. She always felt that Micah and Shannon still had a
future together. There was no real hatred between them, just indirect harm caused to each other. There
was no need for them to hold a grudge for a lifetime. Dawn might have to change herst name if they
ever got back together.
“Thank you, Mrs. Luther. I like this name. I''m sure you and my mom have more to discuss, so I''ll go
back to sleep and not disturb you two.”
Dawn was a well-behaved and sensible girl with a delicate and intricate mind. She was an angel who
had mistakenly entered the mortal realm, which was why they experienced so much suffering.
“All right, you should get some sleep. I''lle to visit you another day.”
After the two left the room, Shannon tentatively asked, “Bailey, do you feel like experiencing hardships
together with him? Max, Zayron, and Susan are still young. Can you bear to leave them alone?”
Bailey chuckled softly and said, “Even if I continue to apany them, it won''t be for many more
years. Once children grow up, they have their world. I can''t be with them for their entire lives. Sooner or
later, I have to let go. A few years earlier doesn''t matter.”
Shannon embraced her tearfully, saying, “This is your choice, and no one else can interfere. Bailey, I
hope that we still have the fate to be good friends in our next life.”
“Ah, we look forward to meeting again in the next life.”
...
At dusk... Bailey returned to the headquarters. The aroma wafted from the small kitchen, and she
instinctively strolled over.
