    Chapter 569 Bailey Is Going Down


    Inside Holden''s study, Artemis was leaning against the French windows as he asked mildly, “How''s the


    job going? What did they say after you brought up my suggestion?”


    Holden walked over with two sses of whiskey and passed one to Artemis. “I invited you over to tell

    you all about it. Yvette has agreed to return and wait for the wedding, but she specifically requested


    that you show up and send her off. She wants to make sure her pride is fed.”


    She agreed so quickly and even asked me to go back to Tarragon to send her off? Things are going so


    smoothly.


    Artemis smirked. “It seems like we''ve made the right choice. Go back and get rid of everyone who went


    against me. I don''t waste my time on rebels. It''s time to clean Tarragon from the inside out.”


    “That may be true, but there''s most likely a huge storm waiting for you. Everyone knows how haughty


    Yvette is. After she set her sights on you, she gave up on Micahpletely. That''s more than enough


    to show how prideful and shallow she is. If not, she wouldn''t have agreed to this marriage.”


    “That doesn''t matter. I want to see them attack. Things will be harder if they don''t.”


    Holden nodded. “Then I''ll tell Yvette that you agreed to go send her off. When are you nning to


    leave? Bailey seems to be in hot souptely. Would you be able to step away?”


    Artemis fell silent for a second as he thought about it. “I''d prefer topletely get rid of the hidden


    threats first. While Bailey may be caught in the storm, she''s not in too much danger yet. Plus, Zeke is in


    Hallsbay, and he won''t let anything happen to his sister. I''ll return as soon as possible after I get rid of


    the person who''s trying to force me and Bailey apart. That way, we''ll be safe from harm.”


    “Alright. I''ll go arrange that right now.”


    ...


    The news of Jadeborough sending investigators to look into Bailey''s case quickly spread like wildfire in


    Hallsbay.


    Some people pitied her, but most of them wanted to see her fall.


    She was so talented and blessed. Most importantly, she even had Artemis by her side. Hence, there


    were a lot of people who were jealous of her. If she died, they would all be really delighted.


    “The news of Bailey embezzling the donations must have been proven true, or they wouldn''t have sent


    investigators to check.”


    “She talked about the organization helping loads of unfortunate students before. Why isn''t anyone


    she must have sponsored a lot of them.”


    “What? Don''t joke. Do you think someone like her would spend her money on some hillbillies from the


    vige? All the donations she received were used to purchase damaged goods that factories


    discarded. She''s literally the Devil reincarnated. In all my years of living, I''ve never seen someone as


    evil as this scheming bit*h!”


    “Let''s just wait for the conclusion of the investigation.”


    “You''re right. Let''s just wait and see. I''ll be ready with popcorn at home to see Bailey truly be destroyed


    once and for all.”


    ...


    In the West residence''s study room, Jacques was looking at Howard cautiously. “This visit was so


    sudden that I didn''t have the time to prepare anything for you. Would you like to stay for dinner since


    you have dropped by?”


    “Come on, Jacques. We''ve known each other for how long now? I may have been transferred to


    Jadeborough, but there''s no need to act so formally with me.”


    Jacques let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “You''re right. I''ve been in this position for so long


    that I''ve be a coward. When I heard that you wereing to Hallsbay, I couldn''t sleep out of


    excitement.”


    Some people pitied her, but most of them wanted to see her fall.


    Howardughed out loud after hearing that. “Alright, let''s get back to the main topic. I heard that Bailey


    was the cause of what happened to Chloe. How have you not taken revenge yet?”


    Jacques'' expression darkened at that reminder.


    Chloe was his only daughter and he had ced all of his aspirations for her on her shoulders. Her


    marrying into a rich and prestigious family had all been part of the n to pull off a perfect political


    marriage.


    If she could get married to Artemis, Jacques would definitely be able to get transferred to Jadeborough


    and climbed up further on the socialdder.


    All his hopes and dreams had died on the hill named Bailey, so how could he just forgive her so easily?


    “I will be very soon. I''ve been nning on talking to you about it. You''ve probablye to Hallsbay for


    the same reason, yes?”


    “Haha!” Howard chuckled. “You''re bing really quick on your feet recently. Since we work together


    so well, how about we be allies?”


    Jacques'' face broke out into a big smile.


    He would never forgive Bailey for what she did. No matter what he tried, he would make sure to run her


    to the ground.


    Now that Howard was on his side, it would be more than easy to get rid of her by his hand.


    “Okay. Go ahead with your investigation. I can guarantee that you''ll be able to dig up all incriminating


    evidence I can get my hands on.”


    “That''s what I want to hear! After all, you are the driving force behind Hallsbay. I need you on my side


    to help me. If not, I''d be useless here regardless of my position.”


    ...


    Shirley had just tripped while strolling in the garden of the Shurmer residence.
