Chapter 794 This Woman Almost Seduced Him
Raymond clearly didn''t believe it. His sharp gaze locked onto Bailey, studying her for a moment before
asking again, “Are you really here just to detoxify her? You don''t have any ulterior motives?”
Bailey raised an eyebrow and countered, “This is the territory of the Hoffman family. What ulterior
motives could I have?”
“True.”
Raymond nodded and chuckled softly.
“You, Bailey, indeed have some ability. But you don''t have the power to take someone from within the
Hoffman residence.” After speaking, he turned to a servant beside him and said, “Take Ms. Jefferson to
see Ms. Juliana.”
“Yes.” The maid made a gesture to Bailey.
“Ms. Jefferson, please follow me.” Bailey smiled and walked toward the door. Just as she took a few
steps, she heard Raymond''s voice behind her.
“Mr. Shurmer, you have no rtionship with Juliana. Please wait here. Currently, it is not convenient for
her to receive guests.”
Zeke narrowed his eyes, coldly ring at Raymond who was blocking his path. There was a glint of
danger in his eyes. Bailey quickly turned back and grabbed Zeke''s arm, speaking in a serious tone.
“Zeke, to Julie, your identity is indeed special. So, please wait here. Don''t make things difficult for Mr.
Raymond. Trust me, I will save her life.”
Afterward, she pointed toward Cameron and said to Raymond, “I assume you wouldn''t mind me having
a bodyguard by my side, would you? After all, this ce is a dangerous one for me. I won''t feel safe
without someone to protect me.”
Cameron''s eyes brightened. He nced provocatively at Artemis as if to say, “We''re both disguised as
bodyguards, but obviously, I''m more useful than you.”
A dangerous light shed in Artemis'' eyes.
This guy can''t stay with us. After we leave, I''ll find a way to kick him away.
Bailey sensed Artemis'' discontent and couldn''t help but smile bitterly. He didn''t understand poisons, so
why would she bring him along?
Just to stroll around the garden? Besides, going deep into the Hoffman family''s residence was
extremely dangerous.
As a weak individual, he would have trouble protecting himself, let alone lending her a helping hand.
Cameron, on the other hand, was different. He could help identify the type of poison affecting Julie,
making it easier for her to prepare the antidote once they returned.
He could also fight alongside her, dealing with any unknown threats that lurked in the shadows.
“Fine, you can bring one bodyguard, as long as it''s not Mr. Zeke,” Raymond agreed. Bailey didn''t
respond and turned around to walk outside. Cameron quickly followed. After leaving the reception hall,
the two exchanged nces.
Don''t reveal any ws. Don''t let outsiders recognize your identity. I think Kurt is around here
somewhere. If he recognizes you, things won''t be good.
They silentlymunicated through their eyes.
I know. I''ll observe her from a distance of a few meters. I can probably determine the type of poison
she''s been affected by. But as for you, be careful. I''m afraid there might be things I end up overlooking
that puts you in danger.
Bailey couldn''t help but sneer. The people of the Hoffman family were not fools, especially Raymond.
He knew that if she died in this ce, she would offend the Luther family, the Shurmer family, the
Saviors, and even Tarragon.
If he wanted the Hoffman family to survive for generations toe, he wouldn''t just stand by and watch
Philip and Sofie kill her here.
As for outside the castle, that wasn''t within his consideration. He would watch as they tore each other

apart, ultimately getting rid of Philip while severely weakening her. He would reap the benefits then.
After walking for five or six minutes along the corridor, they arrived in front of a mansion. Bailey was
familiar with this ce. Juliana had invited her as a guest before.
“Ms. Jefferson, this is where Ms. Juliana resides,” the maid said.
“Okay, lead the way inside,” Bailey replied. As they were about to enter the living room, several ck-
d individuals emerged from the spiral staircase, escorting two men in suits.
Bailey instinctively looked up. She recognized the young man leading them—it was Tucker, Philip''s
son, and Juliana''s cousin.
As for the other man in the suit... He had fair and clean features, and from a distance, she could smell
the scent of medicinal herbs on him. He was very likely in contact with them frequently.
Bailey nced at Cameron by her side and received a confirming look from him. This young man was
Cadence''s brother, Kurt White.
“Ms. Jefferson, why are you here?” Tucker greeted her with a smile.
His gaze toward Bailey was strange, with a glimmer of possessiveness deep in his eyes. It was
probably three years ago when Juliana first brought this woman back.
He was captivated by her cold and proud aura. This woman was like a white lily that had grown in
seclusion on a cier for a thousand years—uniquely independent, cold, and elegant.
Compared to those materialistic women with hot figures and full of worldly desires, women like her
stood out in stark contrast.
Having spent his time among other ordinary beauties, he was almost seduced by her when he first saw
her.
Later, she returned to Chanaea and became outstanding globally in just half a year.
She had countless powerful identities and trampled on herpetitors, overlooking all beings from the
pinnacle.
She became the woman that numerous ambitious figures coveted.
Of course, they desired her not because they were infatuated with her or liked her.
They simply wanted to imprison her, break her wings, and watch her wither bit by bit, satisfying their
twisted desires.
Now, Artemis was dead, and she had lost her backing.
Many people internationally were probably starting to make their moves. Hearing that she hade to
Moranta, they would likely follow closely behind. Now, he had the upper hand.
He had to capture her before anyone else. Just the thought of this cold and beautiful woman blooming
like a snow lily in his embrace, and bing one with him, made his blood boil and his whole body
itch uncontrobly.
Bailey was observant, and she could clearly feel his covetous desire for her. A cold smile shed in her
eyes.
Did he really think Artemis was dead? Such foolishness would only lead to a miserable death.
Not everyone who admired her was as lucky as Cameron, whom Artemis could tolerate. If it were
someone else, he would explode instantly.
“Mr. Tucker, it''s been a while. I came to see Julie. I heard she was poisoned,” Bailey said.
Then she looked at Kurt and asked, “Who is this?” Tucker looked at Kurt and smiled.
“He''s a friend of mine who is knowledgeable in the art of poison-crafting. I invited him to take a look at
Julie, but it seems he is also helpless as to her condition.”
Bailey''s inner sarcasm grew stronger. They brought the poisoner to detoxify the victim and imed that
he couldn''t do it. She really didn''t know what they were up to.
“I see. Well, you go ahead. I''ll go upstairs to see Julie,” Bailey said. Tucker made way for her.
“Of course.”
As Bailey led her bodyguard up the stairs, Tucker turned to Kurt and said, “Did you see that woman?
She''s Bailey Jefferson, the one who killed your older brother. I can use the influence of the Hoffman
family to help you evade pursuit from the Yablon family. But you have to let me have this woman.”
