Chapter 622 Where Is My Baby
Bailey hastily stretched out a hand and swiped the answer button.
The instant the call was connected, Veronique''s voice drifted out of the phone.
“What are you doing, Bay?”
Bailey was taken aback, for the woman sounded pretty normal, not gravely ill as she had assumed to
be.

“Y-You''re fine? No, that doesn''t sound right! I mean, is something the matter that you called me?”
Bailey asked.
Veronique chuckled softly. “You''re too anxious. But that makes sense. You must be in a difficult
situation ofte. You''ve got to take good care of yourself. Don''t overtax yourself to the point that you fall
ill. I''m fine, so you don''t need to worry about me. I called you to tell you that Justin is nning to bring
me to Terrandya. I want to go and have a look at the endless grasnd, Bay.”
At once, a pucker formed between Bailey''s brows.
She was quiet for a moment before she sighed and replied, “Since he isn''t stopping you from doing so,
he probably has no objections to you going. I can also rest easy with him keeping youpany. Go
and enjoy yourself, then. After that,e back and continue receiving treatment. Don''t give up easily. If
you die, it''ll leave a scar on many people''s hearts, one that can never heal.”
“Okay, okay, I know. You must take good care of yourself, too. I need to pack my luggage, so I''ll be
hanging up first.”
“Okay. Take care.”
After ending the call, Bailey rubbed her sore eyes and said to Raiden, “Keep these corpses for now and
ask Artemis when he returns. He should be able to find out thest whereabouts of these suicide
attackers.”
Arching a brow, Raiden drawled with a smirk, “You trust him this much? He has alreadyunched a
hunt for your life, yet you can still trust him without any reservations. Is he really that perfect in your
eyes, Bailey?”
Bailey shot him a sidelong nce. Straightening her expression, she stated solemnly, “He''s all I see,
and he''s my entire world. Bluntly put, I''ve integrated him into my blood and soul, making him a part of
my life. Would you doubt yourself?”
That had Raiden at a loss for words.
He gave a slight bob of his head, his lips curving into a bitter arc.
That''s true. Artemis is all she can see, and she even values him over her own life. Of course, she
would trust himpletely. I knew that, so what was I expecting? Even if I can''t get her love, I''ll still be
able to express my affection for her in this lifetime by quietly watching over her and protecting her so
that she can live peacefully in the arms of the man she loves, no?
In the master bedroom of the Gezmond residence, Victoria gradually regained consciousness.
When she opened her eyes, she was blinded by the light shining overhead and reflexively stretched out
a hand to cover her eyes.
Out of the blue, a stabbing pain spread from her abdomen. On instinct, she reached out a hand and
touched her stomach.
Pregnant for more than four months previously, she already had a baby bump. While her belly was not
huge, it showed visibly.
Right then, however, she sensed something amiss.
She instinctively looked down, only to see that her belly was as t as ever.
If my belly is already t, does that mean that my baby is gone?
She struggled to sit up, but a hand suddenly pressed down on her shoulder, forcing her to lie back
down.
“Stay still. Wait until your body has gotten enough rest before getting up. Otherwise, you''ll hurt your
uterus.”
She jerked her head over and spotted Bailey standing by the bed. Grabbing thetter''s arm, she
questioned urgently, “Where''s my baby, Bay?”
Bailey closed her eyes and replied slowly, “You''re still young now, so you can still have kids in the
future. With you and Lionel hating each other at present, this isn''t the right time for this child to be born,
either.”
A forlorn smile bloomed on Victoria''s face.
She stroked her stomach with her long and slender fingers a few times before saying in a hoarse voice,
“You''re right. With us hating each other, this isn''t the right time for this child to be born. But I could
already sense her movement. Although it was slight, and one might mistake it for a hallucination, I felt
that it must be her moving.”
Bailey fell silent for a brief moment. Subsequently, she tried consoling Victoria. “Perhaps she didn''t
really want to be your daughter. While she had gone back to heaven midway to continue being an
angel, you''re still young, Vicky. Life has to go on.”
At that, Victoria shed her a forced smile and said, “I know. You don''t need to worry that I''ll take my
own life. I hadn''t done so even after what happened back then, and I won''t do so now.”
“Then, what—”
Victoria could seemingly guess what Bailey wanted to say. Before thetter could give voice to the
question, she interjected, “I don''t want to talk about him right now. Upon hearing the truth about my
mother''s death and learning that the suffering I experienced back then was undeserved, I can''t help
feeling resentful inwardly. You don''t need to counsel me, Bay. When ites to such a matter, I''ve got
to figure it out myself.”
In response, Bailey chuckled.
After having experienced so much, she indeed won''t try to take her own life anymore. I''m being too
anxious. By now, her sharp edges had already been smoothened by the pain and suffering bestowed
by fate. When she gets back to her feet in the future, she''ll definitely be facing life with a brand new
attitude. I can seemingly see her majesty following her transformation. It''ll certainly be a magnificent
sight!
“All right. I won''t do so, then. Just say the word if you need my help in anything,” she uttered in the end.
“Okay,” Victoria replied.
Thousands of miles high in the sky, a few private jets soared amidst the clouds.
In the cabin of the most luxurious and majestic jet in the middle, Artemis leaned against the window
and gazed at the clouds outside.
Suddenly, the cabin door was pushed open, and Holden walked in from outside. “We''ll be arriving in
Hallsbay in a few hours. What should we do next?” he inquired as he walked into the cabin.
Toying with the emerald ring on his thumb, Artemis answered cidly, “Mr. Doyle and the others are
already under our control, so they won''t be able to make any trouble. All that is left presently is the
culprit stirring up trouble behind the scenes. So long as we ferret them out and eliminate the hidden
danger, we''ll attain our goal.”
“That''s true. Yvette will likely contact the culprit because she won''t be able to rest easy as long as
Bailey remains alive. When we arrive back in Hallsbay, she''ll definitely join hands with that person to
finish Bailey off. Once they make their move, we''ll know who the other person is.”
Artemis merely quirked a brow, disying a nomittal response.
“Oh yes, I heard the names of a few people from Yvette''s conversation with her personal bodyguards
while I drew near to her these past few days. Go and investigate them. You might be able to find some
witnesses or evidence to prove that your sister didn''t betray the organization back then by leaking
confidential information. Instead, it was Yvette who framed her.”
Afterward, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Holden.
Holden took it carefully, very much emotional.
That time around, he had returned to the headquarters to protect Artemis, first and foremost. Secondly,
it was to investigate the matter of Shannon leaking the organization''s confidential information back then
and seek justice for her.
“Thank you,” Holden said.
“You''re wee. When we arrive in Hallsbay, investigate where Mr. Doyle and the others imprisoned
Micah and the rest. Then, make preparations to save them. Be on standby at all times. As soon as I
snuff out Mr. Doyle''s influence, lead some men over and rescue them,” Artemis ordered.
“Understood.”
In the study of the Gezmond residence, Lionel was speaking on the phone.
It was a call from Victor.
“You promised to transfer me the shares, Lionel. You can''t go back on your word!” Victor growled.
