Chapter 763
Chapter 763 The Wife Is Not Easily Pacified
In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed. She repeated the same sentence in his consciousness,
over and over again.
If you die, I will die too. In the next life, I have pledged myself to Edmund, so we cannot continue our
past rtionship. Please wake up swiftly.
Her own frail body could only endure for forty minutes before being forced to withdraw. As her
consciousness returned, she felt utterly drained and copsed onto the bed. Upon hearing the
“Bay, are you alright?”
Bailey shook her head, looking at Artemis who leaned against the head of the bed with his eyes closed,
and let out a silent sigh.
Did it fail?
If she had failed, it might be a while before she could use the dream-tailoring skill again. Who knew
when the next opportunity would arise? It could take ages.
“I''m fine, just wasted half an hour of effort. He didn''t wake up,” she said, with a bitter smile.
She had initially believed that he would awaken upon hearing her promise to Edmund for their next life,
but to her surprise, he didn''t. It was all because of that terrible idea from Cameron. Once she regained
her strength, she would certainly go and teach him a lesson.
Zeke''s gaze swept over Artemis'' body, and he furrowed his brow as he inquired, “What''s his current
condition? Will he remain unconscious like this?” Bailey shook her head.
“I don''t know. Just carry me back and let me rest for now. I''ll figure it out once I regain my energy.
There''s no rush. After all, he won''t die anytime soon.”
Zeke yfully flicked her forehead twice and then leaned over to lift her into his arms.
“If only you had realized it sooner, we wouldn''t be in this situation.”
In Hallsbay, at a corner coffee shop, Olivia stared coldly at the female doctor sitting across from her
and asked lightly, “Have you figured it out? If you have, then be honest.”
A hint of hesitation flickered in the eyes of the female doctor. As a doctor at the medical base, she
possessed certain knowledge about certain matters.
However, she knew that once it was exposed, she might not be able to remain at the medical base any
longer. We usually disclose everything you wish to know. However, I cannot divulge this particr
matter as it impacts my livelihood.
“Please spare me and let it go. I still have arge family to support,” the female doctor pleaded. Olivia
took out a check from her handbag and ced it on the table.
“This amount of money is enough for you to work at the medical base for twenty years. You''re a smart
person, so you should know how to make the right choice, right?”
Olivia stated After a moment of silence, the determined expression in the female doctor''s eyes began
to waver. If she didn''tpromise, she would inevitably offend this nobledy.
In that case, Olivia might make things difficult for her, jeopardizing both her money and her reputation.
It seemed more prudent to ept the check and disclose everything she knew.
“Mr. Zain proposed fighting cancer with cancer and injected another type of cancer cell into Ms.
Veronique''s body. Then, Mr. Xuereb enlisted the help of Mr. Yablon, the son of a prestigious family
specializing in drugs, to concoct a poison for Ms. Veronique.
“They attempted to eliminate both types of cancer cells by using toxins to make them devour each
other. This treatment n is absurd. Based on my years of clinical experience, it is fundamentally
unachievable,” the female doctor revealed. Olivia''s face disyed a look of astonishment.
Cancer fighting against cancer? Injecting toxins into the human body?
If all this fuss couldn''t kill Veronique, she truly didn''t know what else in this world could eliminate her.
“Are you sure this information is reliable?” Olivia questioned. The female doctor nodded confidently.
“I am certain,” she replied, reaching for the check on the table.
“If Mrs. Xuereb has no further questions, I''ll take my leave now.” Olivia paid no attention to her, falling
into contemtion.
They wouldn''t go through all this trouble without some chance of sess. In other words, there was
still hope for that woman to survive. No, I have to take action while that woman is still in danger before
she takes a turn for the better. That way, not only would it increase the likelihood of sess, but it
would also divert suspicion and keep everything concealed. When she died, they would assume that
she sumbed to the ravages of the two types of cancer cells.
Late at night, Bailey slowly regained consciousness.
She didn''t open her eyes but gradually regained her consciousness. A familiar scent wafted to her
nostrils, the unique fragrance that belonged to Artemis. The hand hidden beneath the nket slowly
clenched into a fist, as her entire body trembled lightly.
Artemis, have you awakened?
After contemting for a while with her eyes closed, she managed to calm herself down slightly. When
she finally opened her eyes, she was met with a face that was deeply etched into her bones.
She wanted to cry, but feeling awkward, she forcefully suppressed the urge to cry. That man had
provoked her again. Despite her heartfelt plea to himst night, he stubbornly persisted in his own way.
If she forgave him just like that, he would only be more unscrupulous when faced with simr
situations in the future.
“Are you willing to open your eyes? I thought you would fall back asleep again.” A teasing voice from
Artemis reached her ears. She couldn''t help but snort coldly in her heart.
Who wants to y along with your jokes? Who''s ying nice with you?
After lying in bed for a while until her limbs regained sensation, she propped herself up with her elbows
and sat up. Then she lifted the nket, turned over, and got out of bed from the other side. Upon
seeing her like that, Artemis couldn''t help but raise his hand and rub his forehead.
At that time, with multiple offensesbined, it might not be easy to appease the wife. After sitting by
the bed for a while, he got up and walked toward the bathroom. Bailey stared nkly at the mirror, her
face devoid of any expression. Artemis hugged her from behind, burying his handsome face in her
neck.

“Are you nning to keep giving me the cold shoulder? I barely made it back from the jaws of death,
can''t you at least wee me?”
Bailey snapped back to reality, turned on the faucet, and cupped some hot water to wash her face.
After finishing washing up, she turned around to leave, but the man behind her refused to budge. She
found herself plunging into his embrace. Artemis lowered his head to look at her and chuckled,
“Throwing yourself into my arms? Seems like your body is much more honest than your mouth.”
Bailey remained silent, staring at him coldly, her gaze piercing through. Artemis kissed her, but she
didn''t react. He teased her, but she still didn''t respond. Artemis couldn''t help but let out a bitterugh,
“It seems like I''ve really angered you this time. Continuing to pester you like this probably won''t do any
good.
“Ah, I thought my wife would praise me when I woke up, but I didn''t expect this situation. If I had
known, I wouldn''t have woken up.”
After speaking, he slightly turned his body, making way for her. Bailey sneered coldly inwardly.
Trying to provoke me? If you don''t want to wake up, then so be it. If you have the guts, you can go back
to being unconscious. Hmph!
Artemis stood at the door with a bitter smile, thinking, This girl... she''s quite difficult to please. However,
her disy of such a willful and girlish demeanor was exactly what he had been hoping for. She had
been so tired these past few years, so it was good for her to challenge him and force him toe up
with various ways to appease her.
“Wifey, it''s okay to be angry, but don''t let it affect your health, alright?”
Meanwhile, in Moranta, the International Socialite G sponsored by the Hoffman family took ce at
the magnificent Golden Age Hotel. With over a hundred prominent socialites from around the world
attending the grand event, the grandeur of the asion was unprecedented.
Inside the parking lot, Caridee held onto Astrid''s arm and instructed, “Astrid, don''t deliberately introduce
me at the g. Try to keep my presence low-key. I don''t want to attract attention.” Astrid''s eyes
flickered with a tinge of guilt.
“Caridee, I...” Before she could speak, a yful voice suddenly came from behind.
“Beautifuldy, we meet again.”
