Chapter 767
Chapter 767 The Wife is Even Angrier Now
Tucker snapped out of his daze. After agreeing, he quickly called for the bodyguards behind him to
invite the best doctor from the Hoffman family toe over.
After he had arranged everything, he turned around to look at Shaun, only to find that thetter had
already passed out. The room was filled with the stench of blood mixed with a strange amorous smell.
He couldn''t bear it any longer and hurriedly left.
At the entrance, Astrid was escorted by two bodyguards dressed in ck suits as they walked over.
When they were in front of Tucker, one of the bodyguards kicked Astrid''s legs, forcing her to kneel.
“M-Mr. Tucker, I''ve already done as you instructed. What else do you want?”
Tucker suddenly leaned in, forcefully gripping her chin, and said through gritted teeth, “You actually
have the nerve to tell me that you followed my instructions. Fine, then let me ask you, where is
Caridee? Why did Mr. Carter end up with several male mastiffs?”
Astrid''s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at him and murmured, “Male mastiffs? How is that
possible? How could this be? I clearly drugged Caridee and sent her to the lounge.”
Tucker suddenly pushed her away.
“Useless! You can''t even handle such a trivial matter. What''s the point of having you around?” Upon
hearing his tone, Astrid immediately became anxious.
“M-Mr. Tucker, I can continue working for you. Whatever you ask me to do, I''ll do it. Please, I beg you,
don''t harm the Adley family. I''m begging you.”
Tucker lifted his leg and kicked her in the shoulder, sending her flying several meters away.
“I won''t support useless people. Your family is just a burden. If your family ever falls apart, it will be
because you all no longer have value.”
“No...” Astrid clenched her fists tightly. If Caridee hadn''te to Moranta, the Adley family might not
have suffered this misfortune. It was all because of Caridee.
If she became a poor heiress, she would make sure Caridee would suffer for it too. As she was
thinking, something crossed her mind. Her eyes suddenly lit up.
“Mr. Tucker, I know who saved Caridee. It must be him who released the mastiffs.”
Tucker narrowed his eyes at her and said coldly, “Just say what you want to say all at once. Don''t beat
around the bush.”
“Okay. Okay. I''ll say everything at once. I''ll say everything at once. Caridee mentioned before that she
had fallen for a young man who seemed to be from the Saviors. However, she didn''t go into detail with
me. I only know that the person she likes is from the Saviors.” Tucker raised his eyebrows.
Did someone from the Saviors cause Shaun to be a eunuch? Well, things are bing more

and more interesting.
The Hoffman family was preparing to deal with Bailey. With Shaun''s help, they would surely save a lot
of trouble.
“This is good news. Well, your merit can offset your demerit. From now on, whenever I give you an
order, you must aplish it promptly. Can you do that?”
“S-Sure.”
After angering Bailey, Artemis tried various ways to appease her. He tried to ask for forgiveness and
punish himself. He tried every trick in the book. However, Bailey was extremely angry this time and
didn''t ept his apology.
Inside theboratory of Tarragon Headquarters, Bailey was busy concocting a toxin. The toxins in
Artemis'' blood were almostpletely cleansed.
With the remaining one-third of the toxins, she intended to use poison to counteract the toxins.
Otherwise, all her previous efforts would be wasted, as Soul Reaper was incurable. Outside the
expression.
If only he had known that he was so lucky and would wake up after losing so much blood, he wouldn''t
have knocked her out in the first ce. Now, she was thoroughly annoyed, and nothing would let her
forgive him.
“I''m a jerk.” He pped himself hard on his face twice. Zeke chuckled softly and patted his shoulder
reassuringly.
“She won''t sulk for long and will be fine in a couple of days. Just think of ways to coax her during this
time, and whatever you do, don''t make her angry again. Otherwise, even a deity won''t be able to save
you.”
Artemis couldn''t help but let out a bitter smile, shaking his head and saying, “Judging by her attitude, it
seems like she will give me the silent treatment for a long time. Two days? You''re underestimating your
sister''s ability to throw a tantrum.”
Zeke raised his eyebrows and responded with a wry smile, “How about we try a bolder approach?”
“Hmm? What approach? Tell me about it.”
“Stop being so enthusiastic. Be a bit colder. Make her feel a strong urge toe and find you.
Everything will turn out fine.”
Artemis bowed and replied, “That''s a good idea. I''ll do it. Once I''ve recovered, I''ll definitely go to the
Hoffman family and bring back my future sister-inw.”
“Get lost.” Artemis turned around and walked toward the elevator.
“I''ll leave this ce in your capable hands, Zeke. I''ll set things up and try to remove all opposing forces
in one go.”
“All right.” As soon as Artemis left, Bailey walked out of theboratory. She nced around and didn''t
see Artemis.
Frowning, she asked, “Where is he? What earthshaking act is he trying to do this time?”
Zeke didn''t respond and changed the subject, asking, “How''s the toxining along?”
“I still haven''t found the perfect one. Let''s wait a couple more days.”
“All right. Don''t tire yourself out too much. If you''re tired, take a proper break. Do you understand?”
“Okay. I understand.”
Bailey was slightly worried after Artemis didn''te to see her for the entire afternoon.
Did something happen to him again? Is he hiding somewhere to suffer the pain alone? If that''s the
case, I can only tell him that a leopard doesn''t change its spots.
“Focus. Do you think you can develop the right toxin when you''re so distracted?” Cameron''s voice rang
out by her ear, bringing her back from her wandering thoughts. She red at him fiercely and threw the
instrument on the table before striding towards the outside.
“I''ll leave it to you, then.” Cameron was rendered speechless. After leaving theboratory, Bailey went
straight back to the Luther residence.
She could see Artemis and Micah conversing and drinking on the open balcony; they appeared to be
having a great time.
Ah, all men are the same. They have no patience when ites to coaxing their wives. It''s only been
two days, and you have no patience anymore?
On the balcony, Micah noticed Bailey standing in the snow and raised an eyebrow.
“Your wife seems even angrier now. Are you sure you want to keep drinking?” Artemis couldn''t help but
“She''s been quite upset these past few days. Let''s give her some personal space and let her adjust on
her own.”
Bailey walked toward the balcony. Suddenly, she slipped and fell straight into the snow. She was
suddenly ovee by a wave of agony and a bone-chilling coldness, which made her sob
uncontrobly.
Artemis couldn''t keep up his pretentious act any longer. He ran down the stairs and rushed straight
towards her. He bent down to embrace her.
“How do you feel? Did you hurt yourself anywhere when you fell?”
Bailey let out two humphs.
My tears are already streaming down. How can it not hurt?
Artemis sighed softly and said slowly, “I knocked you out once, and you gave the painting you drew to
Cameron behind my back. We both made mistakes, so why don''t we call it even?”
