Chapter 988 A Calculated Move

Artemis was leaning against a willow tree by the artificial lake, lost in thought, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him. Instinctively, he turned around to look.

In sight, a slender figure was approaching his way.

It was already dusk, and the afterglow of the sunset spilled from the sky, bathing the entire world in a blanket of colorful light.

He initially thought it was Bailey, but upon seeing the newcomer's face clearly, he instinctively furrowed his brows.

If it were someone else, he might have responded with a cold stare, directly chiding them to leave.

However, that woman was Blaze. She was capable of whisking Cameron away and stopping that guy from pestering his wife relentlessly.

Based on that alone, he would change his indifference toward her and treat her kindly.

“Ms. Blaze, did you need something from me?”

The other party didn't respond to him.

Upon closer inspection, one could see her eyes were vacant, staring blankly into the void ahead, her gaze unable to find any point of focus.

What's going on with her?

Sleepwalking?

Or is she hallucinating?

In a moment of distraction, the woman in his line of sight had already reached the edge of the lake.

Suddenly, she lost control of her emotions. “Kurt, don't touch me. Don't you dare touch me. I'd rather die than let you humiliate me again.”

After she finished speaking, she leaped forward, plunging into the lake with a splash.

It was clear that this woman couldn't swim. As soon as she hit the water, she began to struggle violently.

It was almost mealtime at that moment, and the housekeepers were all busy with their tasks, so there was hardly a soul to be seen by the artificial lake.

Artemis found himself in a dilemma—should he jump into the lake to save her or not?

Cameron was poisoned in the process of saving Bailey. To remove the poison from Cameron's body, Blaze was willing to sacrifice herself, negotiate with Kurt, and end up being severely injured.
