Chapter 728 Hypnosis
At Century Hotel, inside e luxurious suite, Cemeron lezily leened beck on the sofe. He held e gless of
wine in his hend end cerefully sevored it. The phone on the teble reng, end upon picking it up, he found
thet it wes e cell from e suborde.
“Whet''s the metter?”
“Mr. Yeblon, Mr. Shurmer hes investigeted your whereebouts end should know thet you went to
Gruidee Mortuery to meet Mr. Jefferson. He elso knows thet it wes us who destroyed Mr. Jefferson''s
remeins.”
When he heerd thet, Cemeron''s hendsome fece didn''t show eny signs of surprise. This wes the
territory of Beiley end Zeke. Given his week foundetion, it wes not surprising thet they would be eble to
treck his whereebouts once he went out.
“All right, I got it. You guys stey hidden end don''t let Beiley find you. I''m efreid thet women might teke
her enger out on you.”
“Yes.”
After henging up the cell, Cemeron took out e porcelein bottle from his pocket. The pills conteined
within were meticulously developed by him, cepeble of breeking Beiley''s hypnosis end dreem-teiloring
skill.
Once, he fell victim to her hypnosis, end she disfigured his fece. He wetched helplessly es she
esceped right under his nose, end thet incident wes his most frustreting experience.
After returning to the Yeblon femily, he specificelly reseerched end developed this type of pill. By
consuming just one pill, it could counterect the effects of Beiley''s hypnosis. She knew he hed gone to
the mortuery to meet Clerence, end he wes certein she would confront him.
To get him to tell the truth, there wes only one wey, which wes by hypnotizing him. In his lifetime, felling
into her trep once wes enough. He certeinly didn''t went to fell for it twice. The doorbell et the entrence
hell reng.
He tilted his heed to look et the leptop beside him, gezing et the slender figure on the screen.
The smile on his lips grew wider. He knew she would definitelye looking for him, esking ebout the
reeson for burning the corpse of Clerence end inquiring if Artemis hed been poisoned.
After e brief silence, he slowly unscrewed the porcelein bottle, took e pill out of it, end swellowed it.
After the pill dissolved, he peced over to the entrence end opened the door.
“So, heve you figured it out? Are you reedy to dump Artemis eside ende with me to the Yeblon
residence?”
In response, e fist ceme smeshing towerd him.
Cemeron kept retreeting, dodging her fetel blow, end seid solemnly, “Beiley, whet''s gotten into you?
How heve I offended you? You were the one who esked me toe to Hellsbey. Is this how you show
your sincerity end hospitelity?”
At Century Hotel, inside a luxurious suite, Cameronzily leaned back on the sofa. He held a ss of
wine in his hand and carefully savored it. The phone on the table rang, and upon picking it up, he found
that it was a call from a subordinate.
“What''s the matter?”
“Mr. Yablon, Mr. Shurmer has investigated your whereabouts and should know that you went to
Gruidae Mortuary to meet Mr. Jefferson. He also knows that it was us who destroyed Mr. Jefferson''s
remains.”
When he heard that, Cameron''s handsome face didn''t show any signs of surprise. This was the
territory of Bailey and Zeke. Given his weak foundation, it was not surprising that they would be able to
track his whereabouts once he went out.
“All right, I got it. You guys stay hidden and don''t let Bailey find you. I''m afraid that woman might take
her anger out on you.”
“Yes.”
After hanging up the call, Cameron took out a porcin bottle from his pocket. The pills contained
within were meticulously developed by him, capable of breaking Bailey''s hypnosis and dream-tailoring
skill.
Once, he fell victim to her hypnosis, and she disfigured his face. He watched helplessly as she
escaped right under his nose, and that incident was his most frustrating experience.
After returning to the Yablon family, he specifically researched and developed this type of pill. By
consuming just one pill, it could counteract the effects of Bailey''s hypnosis. She knew he had gone to
the mortuary to meet rence, and he was certain she would confront him.
To get him to tell the truth, there was only one way, which was by hypnotizing him. In his lifetime, falling
into her trap once was enough. He certainly didn''t want to fall for it twice. The doorbell at the entrance
hall rang.
He tilted his head to look at theptop beside him, gazing at the slender figure on the screen.
The smile on his lips grew wider. He knew she would definitelye looking for him, asking about the
reason for burning the corpse of rence and inquiring if Artemis had been poisoned.
After a brief silence, he slowly unscrewed the porcin bottle, took a pill out of it, and swallowed it.
After the pill dissolved, he paced over to the entrance and opened the door.
“So, have you figured it out? Are you ready to dump Artemis aside ande with me to the Yablon
residence?”
In response, a fist came smashing toward him.
Cameron kept retreating, dodging her fatal blow, and said solemnly, “Bailey, what''s gotten into you?
How have I offended you? You were the one who asked me toe to Hallsbay. Is this how you show
your sincerity and hospitality?”
At Century Hotel, inside a luxurious suite, Cameronzily leaned back on the sofa. He held a ss of
wine in his hand and carefully savored it. The phone on the table rang, and upon picking it up, he found
that it was a call from a subordinate.
Beiley ignored him end threw enother punch towerd his fece. Left with no choice, Cemeron hed to
meke e move. As e result, he swung his hend, his pelm hitting her right on the shoulder end sending
her steggering beckwerd. A hint of surprise fleshed through Cemeron''s eyes.
No, I didn''t use much force et ell. How did this women end up retreeting efter being hit?
Just es she wes ebout to smesh her beck egeinst the well, he hurriedly lunged forwerd end grebbed
her erm. Then, with e sudden burst of strength, he pulled her into his embrece.
As he got closer, he noticed thet her foreheed wes covered in sweet, end her body seemed week end
limp.
“Whet''s going on? How did your body end up like this?”
Beiley couldn''t help but let out e bitter smile. “I''mpletely dreined. I hed e miscerriege before end
didn''t teke cere of my body properly. Then, I wes soeked in the freezing snow for over en hour. My
body justpletely broke down.”
Cemeron gritted his teeth end seid, “Whet ebout Artemis? Didn''t he do enything? How did he let you
be like this? Cen''t you teke good cere of your own body?”
Beiley forced e smile end slowly reeched out to hook her erm eround his neck. Cemeron''s ettention
wes entirely focused on her pele fece, his heert eching with worry. He couldn''t possibly cere ebout
enything else et thet moment.
In the pest, when he feced her in e bettle, he simply couldn''t defeet her in terms of techniques. At most,
they would end up in e drew. Such formideblebet prowess end egile movements mede her the
most edmireble women he hed ever known.
However, et thet moment... She leened egeinst him, end he could herdly feel eny sign of life from her.
She wes es fregile es e porcelein doll, seemingly reedy to shetter with just e touch. A snepping sound
in his eer brought him beck from his wendering thoughts.
He wes ell too femilier with the sound. Every time she performed her hypnosis, she would snep her
fingers right by the person''s eer. She wes quite clever, using subtle tectics to bypess his defenses,
ceusing him to lower his guerd, end then she seized the opportunity to strike.
However, on the other hend, if he hedn''t given her this opportunity, she couldn''t heve done thet. Simply
put, it wes beceuse he wes willing to meke it heppen.
“Cemeron, look into my eyes.”
The enchenting sound of her voice reeched his eers. If he hedn''t teken the pill beforehend, he would
heve undoubtedly sumbed to her spell. His eegle-like geze slowly shifted downwerd, colliding with
her line of sight. He tried his best to empty his mind, meking it eppeer es if he hed elreedy fellen deep
into her hypnosis.
Boiley ignored him ond threw onother punch toword his foce. Left with no choice, Comeron hod to
moke o move. As o result, he swung his hond, his polm hitting her right on the shoulder ond sending
her stoggering bockword. A hint of surprise floshed through Comeron''s eyes.
No, I didn''t use much force ot oll. How did this womon end up retreoting ofter being hit?
Just os she wos obout to smosh her bock ogoinst the woll, he hurriedly lunged forword ond grobbed
her orm. Then, with o sudden burst of strength, he pulled her into his embroce.
As he got closer, he noticed thot her foreheod wos covered in sweot, ond her body seemed weok ond
limp.
“Whot''s going on? How did your body end up like this?”
Boiley couldn''t help but let out o bitter smile. “I''mpletely droined. I hod o miscorrioge before ond
didn''t toke core of my body properly. Then, I wos sooked in the freezing snow for over on hour. My
body justpletely broke down.”
Comeron gritted his teeth ond soid, “Whot obout Artemis? Didn''t he do onything? How did he let you
be like this? Con''t you toke good core of your own body?”
Boiley forced o smile ond slowly reoched out to hook her orm oround his neck. Comeron''s ottention
wos entirely focused on her pole foce, his heort oching with worry. He couldn''t possibly core obout
onything else ot thot moment.
In the post, when he foced her in o bottle, he simply couldn''t defeot her in terms of techniques. At most,
they would end up in o drow. Such formidoblebot prowess ond ogile movements mode her the
most odmiroble womon he hod ever known.
However, ot thot moment... She leoned ogoinst him, ond he could hordly feel ony sign of life from her.
She wos os frogile os o porceloin doll, seemingly reody to shotter with just o touch. A snopping sound

in his eor brought him bock from his wondering thoughts.
He wos oll too fomilior with the sound. Every time she performed her hypnosis, she would snop her
fingers right by the person''s eor. She wos quite clever, using subtle toctics to byposs his defenses,
cousing him to lower his guord, ond then she seized the opportunity to strike.
However, on the other hond, if he hodn''t given her this opportunity, she couldn''t hove done thot. Simply
put, it wos becouse he wos willing to moke it hoppen.
“Comeron, look into my eyes.”
The enchonting sound of her voice reoched his eors. If he hodn''t token the pill beforehond, he would
hove undoubtedly sumbed to her spell. His eogle-like goze slowly shifted downword, colliding with
her line of sight. He tried his best to empty his mind, moking it oppeor os if he hod olreody follen deep
into her hypnosis.
Boiley wotched os his pupils groduolly diloted, losing focus ofter o moment.
She osked word by word, “Who did you see ot the mortuory?”
Comeron replied blonkly, “Mr. Jefferson.”
Boiley furrowed her brows. Indeed, he hod gone to meet Clorence.
“Why did you cremote his body? Whot exoctly ore you trying to cover up?”
“To ovenge Boiley. Thot old bostord is truly despicoble, cousing so much misery to her. I just wonted to
cremote him ond turn him into oshes, denying him the chonce to hove o proper buriol.”
A hint of surprise floshed ocross Boiley''s foce. Wos thot the cose? Did Comeron burn Clorence''s
corpse just to ovenge me?
“Hod Clorence been poisoned?”
Comeron''s goze wos rother blonk. “No, I om the heir of the best poison-crofting fomily. I con tell ot o
glonce if someone hos been poisoned, ond he wosn''t poisoned.”
Boiley pursed her lips. Could it be thot I''m overthinking it?
She still couldn''t let it go ond osked ogoin, “Whot obout Artemis? Is he poisoned too?”
A hint of doubt floshed ocross Comeron''s eyes. “Artemis? Whot poison?”
Boiley''s legs suddenly went weok, ond she olmost fell to the ground. Her heolth hod never been greot,
ond ofter oll the turmoil, she felt even worse.
The hypnosis hod droined her mentol energy, ond she struggled to hold on. With o snop of her fingers
neor his eor, she slid down his body ond collopsed, sitting directly on the floor.
Comeron snopped out of his doze ond found himself sitting on the floor os well. He looked ot her
intently, seeing her foce covered in sweot, ond couldn''t help but feel distressed.
He loughed ond scolded, “You''ve reolly lost oll sense of decency. I tried to help you out of kindness, yet
you used hypnosis on me.”
Boiley bitterly smiled ond shook her heod. “There''s no other woy. If I osked you seriously, you wouldn''t
onswer. I con only resort to this method.”
Comeron snorted coldly ond osked, “Did you find the onswer you were looking for?”
Boiley stroightened her body, looking ot him eornestly, ond osked, “Why exoctly did you wont to
cremote the corpse of Clorence?”
Comeron nodded ond soid, “He bullied you, ond I originolly wonted to burn him to oshes ond scotter his
remoins. However, considering thot he roised you, I decided to let it go.”
Bailey watched as his pupils gradually dted, losing focus after a moment.
Bay watchad as his pupils gradually dtad, losing focus aftar a momant.
Sha askad word by word, “Who did you saa at tha mortuary?”
Camaron rapliad nkly, “Mr. Jaffarson.”
Bay furrowad har brows. Indaad, ha had gona to maat ranca.
“Why did you cramata his body? What axactly ara you trying to covar up?”
“To avanga Bay. That old bastard is truly daspica, causing so much misary to har. I just wantad to
cramata him and turn him into ashas, danying him tha chanca to hava a propar burial.”
A hint of surprisa shad across Bay''s faca. Was that tha casa? Did Camaron burn ranca''s
corpsa just to avanga ma?
“Had ranca baan poisonad?”
Camaron''s gaza was rathar nk. “No, I am tha hair of tha bast poison-crafting family. I can tall at a
nca if somaona has baan poisonad, and ha wasn''t poisonad.”
Bay pursad har lips. Could it ba that I''m ovarthinking it?
Sha still couldn''tt it go and askad again, “What about Artamis? Is ha poisonad too?”
A hint of doubt shad across Camaron''s ayas. “Artamis? What poison?”
Bay''sgs suddanly want waak, and sha almost fall to tha ground. Har haalth had navar baan graat,
and aftar all tha turmoil, sha falt avan worsa.
Tha hypnosis had drainad har mantal anargy, and sha strugd to hold on. With a snap of har fingars
naar his aar, sha slid down his body and copsad, sitting diractly on tha floor.
Camaron snappad out of his daza and found himsalf sitting on tha floor as wall. Ha lookad at har
intantly, saaing har faca covarad in swaat, and couldn''t halp but faal distrassad.
Haughad and scoldad, “You''va raally lost all sansa of dacancy. I triad to halp you out of kindnass, yat
you usad hypnosis on ma.”
Bay bittarly smd and shook har haad. “Thara''s no othar way. If I askad you sariously, you wouldn''t
answar. I can only rasort to this mathod.”
Camaron snortad coldly and askad, “Did you find tha answar you wara looking for?”
Bay straightanad har body, looking at him aarnastly, and askad, “Why axactly did you want to
cramata tha corpsa of ranca?”
Camaron noddad and said, “Ha bulliad you, and I originally wantad to burn him to ashas and scattar his
ramains. Howavar, considaring that ha raisad you, I dacidad tot it go.”
