Chapter 664 Let Artemis Kill Me
Edmund did not move a muscle.
Bailey would be left high and dry if he went away right now.
If he stayed, they could look out for each other, and he would at least be able to take one for her if the
circumstance called for it.
If Edmund left just like that, there would be no one to provide her with support if the need arose. This
would also defeat the purpose of theming together.
Bailey understood Edmund all too well. With just a nce, she was able to guess his intentions. It looks
like he''s ready to sacrifice his own life to protect me. Hey, don''t you need to get my consent first?
After a moment of silence, Bailey said tentatively, “I risked my life to make it here in order to save Justin
and Veronique. If you refuse to bring them to safety, then what we''ve done would have been for
naught. Look, Veronique is down to herst breath. She''s really going to die if you refuse to rescue
her.”
Grimacing, Edmund pursed his lips but said nothing.
Through gritted teeth, Bailey said, “If Veronique dies here, I probably won''t be leaving here either. I
would choose to die with her. At least she''ll have somepany.”
Edmund was intimidated by the expression he saw in Bailey''s eyes. He knew thetter would do as
she said, so he had to protect Veronique in order to protect Bailey. “I''ve never been cruel to you
throughout the years. I advise you to take good care of your life lest others die for you. If you don''t wish
to be held responsible for so many lives, stay alive.”
Bailey chuckled lowly and did not reply. Now was not the right time to speak of such grand gestures.
Without a doubt, she was trying to provoke Yvette. “Go on. Death is inevitable for everyone.”
Edmund reached out and hugged her. He whispered in her ear, “You said in the car that you would give
me a chance in our next life. If I''m more selfish, I will wish for your death so that I can join you. Let''s go
to the other world and continue this rtionship. However, I don''t wish for you to die. This world is a
wonderful ce. You should take your time and enjoy what life has to offer. Promise me you''ll stay
alive.”
After saying that, he pushed her away roughly and strode toward the pir where Veronique and Justin
were bound.
He undid the ropes that bound Justin. The moment the ropes came undone, Justin slid limply to the
ground.
Edmund took a pill and shoved it into the other man''s mouth.
With some difficulty, Justin swallowed the pill and whispered hoarsely, “Thank you. Hurry and free
Veronique. I don''t think she can hang on any longer.”
Edmund was already on the move before the other man reminded him.
Justin struggled to stand up when he saw that Edmund had untied the ropes binding Veronique.
Half carrying Veronique while supporting Justin with his other arm, Edmund headed toward the factory
exit.
Yvette''s eyes darkened. To Bailey, she said, “They''ll die if you try to pull any tricks.”
Bailey shrugged in response. “I know everyone here is on your payroll. I won''t try anything before they
get to safety.”
Yvette snorted, then gestured at the bodyguards who nked her. “Tie her up.”
The two bodyguards picked up the ropes and came toward Bailey.
Bailey yed along and allowed the two of them to bind her securely. Yvette is right. I can''t do anything
before Edmund and the others get to safety. I''d be signing their death warrants if I did.
“All right, since I''ve be your captive, tell me what you intend to do with me. It''s quite punishing to
stand out here in this cold weather. Why don''t we get it over with? Tell me how you wish to proceed,
and I''ll go along with your whims.”
Yvette came over and kicked Bailey''s calf.
Although it was not a light kick, Bailey did not move the slightest.
Yvette''s expression immediately turned vicious. “You have sturdy bones.” Upon saying that, she lifted
her foot and kicked Bailey''s calf in the exact same spot again. This time, however, Yvette had used the
pointy end of her high heel. Unable to bear the pain that suddenly burst forth, Bailey fell to the ground
on one knee.
“Not so tough now, are we?” Yvette said as she reached out and grabbed Bailey''s chin. Jealousy
surged in her eyes as her gazended on thetter''s delicate features.
This b*tch! Why does she get to have all the good things in the world? Not only does she have
countless amazing identities, but she also managed to capture the heart of the most outstanding man
in the country. Despite the countless criticism and curses, she did not end up in a wretched state.
Instead, she was able to thrive. It makes me want to tear her to shreds whenever I look at her.

“Bailey, you probably never thought that you would be captured by me. So what if you''re the head of
the Saviors or an internationally renowned leader? You were defeated by me and you''re at my mercy at
the moment. Say, how should I torture you to relieve the hatred I feel in my heart?”
Bailey arched her brow and gave Yvette the side eye. She sneered, “Artemis that jerk probably slept
with you, right? So where is he? Why don''t you summon him and order him to kill me with his own
hands? Won''t it be the greatest torture for me to die at the hands of the man I love? I''ll probably never
be at peace.”
Yvette narrowed her eyes. Presently, she felt heady with power. The pleasure of carrying out her
revenge had risen and was currently spreading in her belly. It had utterly consumed her sanity.
I have to admit. That''s quite a good suggestion. Won''t it feel great to call Artemis here and see him
personally kill her? Although Bailey looks indifferent, she couldn''t have forgotten her love for him. It is
indeed the cruelest to go if she dies at the hands of the man she loves. It''s also much more effective
than the torture methods I have in mind.
When Bailey saw that Yvette was thinking it over, she continued, “Truth be told, I was livid when I found
out that he had issued a global kill order on me. I was devastated when I saw that he was with you. My
heart hurts as if I''ve been cut with a knife whenever I think about it. Perhaps dying at his hands would
be a relief. Or perhaps it would be torture? Actually, he may still care about our previous rtionship
and decide to let me go. You''d better not bet on this.”
A crisp p echoed in the air as Yvette struck Bailey''s face.
Perhaps Yvette''s hand was numb from the cold, or maybe it was because there wasn''t a great deal of
force behind the p. Bailey only shrugged indifferently in response.
“You think Artemis still cares about your previous rtionship? I think you''ve overestimated yourself.
From the instant he gave out the kill order to the moment he slept with me, it already proves that you
mean nothing to him. Killing you will be a piece of cake. Fine, I''ll do as you wish. I''ll give him a call and
invite him over.” Upon saying that, Yvette headed into the warehouse. She ordered, “Tie this b*tch to
the pir and pour cold water on her. Let her experience a bone-chilling cold.”
