Chapter 862 Catching Ghosts
The expression on Bailey''s face suddenly becameplex. It seems she doesn''t have the slightest
fondness for Simon. It was probably her daughter''s wish to be acknowledged by her father, which was
why she came to Hallsbay. If Simon wants to marry her, he probably has to go through quite a few
trials.
“If you don''t want to meet Simon, then don''t. No one will force you. I suggest you go to Moranta
because Mr. Yablon will meet me there. You want him to help you with the detoxification, don''t you?
Going there with me will give you a chance to meet him.”
After a moment of silence, Catherine finally nodded. “All right. We''ll be counting on you to give us a ride
there. Bailey, I owe you a favor. If you ever need anything in the future, don''t hesitate to ask me. I''ll do
my best to help.”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the living room.
Bailey stood still for a few seconds, then followed along.
Catherine took out a porcin bottle from her carry-on luggage and handed it to Bailey. “Just unscrew
the cap and wave it under his nose a couple of times.”
Bailey reached out to take it, her gaze sweeping over the direction of the bedroom. Then she
instructed, “You and Luna should stay in the hotel. After I wake up Mr. Fletcher, we''ll head straight to
Moranta. If there''s anything urgent, feel free to call me.”
After she finished speaking, she reached out to pick up the mobile phone on the table. In a few quick
moves, she cracked the password and entered a phone number.
Seeing that, Catherine couldn''t help but exim, “I added severalyers of encryption to my phone''s
password. To think you cracked it in seconds. You truly live up to your reputation as the world''s top
hacker, Spook.”
With a yful raise of her eyebrows, Bailey said with a smile, “If you want to learn, I can teach you.”
Catherine was speechless.
“I''ll be leaving now. Stay in touch with me.”
“Okay.”
After Bailey left, the bedroom door opened, and Luna emerged from the room. “Mommy, is that the
famous international tycoon, Bailey? I want her to be my mentor.”
Catherine gently stroked her daughter''s head and said softly, “Then you should cooperate with her to
detoxify the poison in your body. Once you''ve managed to save your own skin, I''ll beg her to take you
in as her apprentice.”
“All right! It''s a promise, then.”
Inside the guest room of the Fletcher residence, Ynda quickly stood up to greet Lindsay upon seeing
thetter.
“Mommy, how are things going? Has Catherine cured Mr. Fletcher yet? When will the Fletcher family lift
my house arrest?”
Lindsay grimaced, her eyes and brows radiating strong malice.
With her teeth clenched tightly, she spoke word by word. “I was tricked by that wretched girl, Catherine.
She actually used a sedative fragrance on Mr. Fletcher behind my back. Even Bailey can''t break the
dream-tailoring skill. Mrs. Fletcher thinks I did something, so she sent me here to be under house
arrest with you.”
Ynda''s jaw dropped in disbelief as she looked at her mother. “Are you saying that both of us can''t
escape the possibility of being imprisoned?”
Lindsay sneered, “As soon as Catherine appeared in Dellmoor, her cousin Eunice rushed over. You
know as well as I do that those two have always been at odds with each other. As long as it''s
something that goes against Catherine, Eunice is always happy to do it.”
Ynda was momentarily taken aback. She asked nkly, “What do you mean?”
“She gave me a sedative fragrance, a lethal one that could lead anyone to their demise. Once Mr.
Fletcher inhales it, his death will be certain. Once he kicks the bucket, Eunice will appear at the
Fletcher residence, using Catherine of killing Mr. Fletcher. When the timees, neither Bailey nor
Catherine will be able to escape. I''ll make sure they all end up in prison for daring to scheme against
me.”
Ynda chuckled softly. It seems the heavens are still on my side. Although... “Mommy, we''re both
under house arrest now. How are we supposed to apply the sedative fragrance to Mr. Fletcher?”
Lindsay grinned sinisterly. “I spent some time in the Fletcher residence''s medical room. Do you think I
couldn''t have bribed a doctor or two? I reckon that sedative fragrance has already been applied to Mr.
Fletcher. All we can do now is silently await good news.”
Ynda reached out and hugged Lindsay''s arm, gently swaying it a few times. With a beaming smile,
she said, “Mommy, you''re the best.”
“I''m killing two birds with one stone. Not only will this help me deal with Bailey, but it''ll also assist
Eunice in resolving her issues with Catherine.” Lindsay was feeling a bit arrogant.
She couldn''t help but mock, “Those two girls are too young and immature to go against me! Once Mr.
Fletcher dies, both of them will be imprisoned. After all, one of them contributed the dream-tailoring skill
while the other the art of perfumery.”

Concurrently, inside the infirmary''s study, Raiden was holding a ss of red wine and leaning back on
the couch.
Raising an eyebrow, he watched the surveince footage on hisptop.
On the side, the bodyguard in ck respectfully said, “Mr. Raiden, two people have been lurking
around the medical room acting suspiciously. These two are usually close to Mrs. Gibson. She might
have bought them out. Do we need to bring them in for questioning?”
Raiden gently swirled the winess in his hand with a smirk. “The fox hasn''t revealed its true colors
yet. What''s the rush? Since they''ve been bought off, they''re probably up to no good. Let''s sit back and
watch what kind of mischief they''re up to.”
“Understood”
After some thought, Raiden said again, “You''re guarding the infirmary like a fortress. How is anyone
supposed to do bad stuff?”
The bodyguard instantly understood what Raiden meant and nodded. “I will arrange for a gap
immediately, allowing them to enter the infirmary as they wish.”
Raiden grinned. “Just stay there and wait. Once they fall into the trap, bring them to the study.”
“Understood.”
No sooner had the bodyguard in ck left than the phone on the table began to ring.
It was a call from Bailey.
Raiden casually swiped the answer button and chuckled, “I''m in the middle of ghost hunting. Do you
want toe over and enjoy the show?”
Bailey couldn''t help but chuckle. “I knew they wouldn''t behave. They''re truly stubborn. You don''t need
to worry about my rtionship with the Gourd family. They should get what they deserve. Since they
dared to harbor ill intentions, they should be severely punished. You merely need to handle it
impartially.”
A gentle light shed past Raiden''s eyes.
He loved a woman like Bailey, bold and passionate.
In his opinion, no other woman in the world could make him feel so profoundly.
“All right. I''ll handle it myself, then. How are things on your end? Have you gotten the antidote for the
sedative fragrance from Catherine?” asked Raiden.
“Indeed, I''ve got it. I was actually thinking of rushing over to wake your father up right now. However,
you''re over there catching ghosts. Hence, I think I''ll wait a bit longer. I''m quite tired anyway. I want to go
back and get some good sleep,” said Bailey.
The smile on Raiden''s face grew wider. “If you can always take care of yourself like you do now, we
won''t have to worry so much about you, I—”
Before he could finish speaking, Bailey abruptly ended the call.
He didn''t need to guess to know Artemis did it.
Listening to the beeping tone, Raiden smiled bitterly.
At that moment, the door swung open, and the bodyguard walked in with two doctors.
