Chapter 360
D*mn it. How could I forget about that dangerous man? He might not do anything to Shannon if she falls into his hand, but she might drive herself to insanity instead.
Bailey knew that Micah's name was a nightmare Shannon could not escape. After all, he had something to do with both her crippled arm and her perished child.
“Prepare a private jet for me. I'm going to use it after one hour.”
“Got it, Ms. Bailey.”
Bailey then hung up and gave Veikko a call.
“Veikko, listen. Micah may have found your whereabouts. I'm going to head to Springwyn right away. Do not act recklessly, and make sure Shannon doesn't notice anything wrong. Do you understand?”
“Yes.”
After putting down her phone, Bailey got up from the bed in a hurry and dressed without much thought. Then she got her phone and car keys and headed out.
She tried to call Artemis, but his phone had been turned off.
Upon giving it a thought, she phoned Zayron and told him about the situation so he could pass the message on to Artemis.
“Okay, I got it. Take care and come home early, Bailey.”
When Artemis found out that Bailey was leaving Hallsbay, her private jet had already flown out of the country.
He thought of going after her, but a text message from Bailey arrived at that moment.
It read: Micah is your sworn brother, so he won't do anything to me. Don't follow me here as I don't want to see you stuck in a dilemma. Stay put and deal with the rumor that's all over Hallsbay, then wait for me to come home.
Artemis couldn't help but snort after he finished reading the text.
She just left like that, huh? Will it hurt to wait for me for an hour or two?
If it weren't for the fact that Bailey had given herself over to him, he would have ordered the entire Tarragon to get in her way.
After all, it was embarrassing to have his woman escape right under his nose.
“Mr. Luther, is the rumor being circulated out there true?”
“Mr. Luther, are you really going to have an affair with Mr. Simon's woman?”
“Mr. Luther, it's immoral to covet your sister-in-law. Aren't you scared of suffering a guilty conscience?”
“Mr. Luther, Ms. Jefferson hasn't shown up for the past two days. It's as if she disappeared without a trace. Where is she right now? Are you hiding her somewhere?”
Outside the parking lot of Luther Group, Artemis was ambushed by a group of reporters.
As he looked at the cameras flashing in his face, a murderous look flickered across his cold eyes.
