Chapter 423

“Everything to you, huh? You better remember what you said today, Micah. Don't throw a fit and harass Shannon.”

Micah did not respond and strode out of the living room instead.

He and Shannon had been through so much that everything had changed.

There was no need to think about the romance between them, as their humble devotion was the sincerest declaration. It was also their only way out.

At Shelbert Condominium, Artemis was leaning against the headboard in the bedroom as he answered a call.

“Mr. Wright of the racing association has been murdered, Mr. Luther.”

Artemis narrowed his eyes. “He's dead? Did you find out who was behind it?”

The other end fell silent for a moment before answering tentatively, “I have investigated his routine over the past couple of days and found he had met with all sorts of people. It took us all night to find a lead.”

“Tell me.”

“The bodyguard to Zoey, the heiress to the Shurmer family, was friendly with Mr. Wright and they communicated in private. More so over the past couple of days, in fact.”

Artemis clutched his phone. A cold glint flashed across his eyes.

It's that woman just as I thought.

“Very well. The person bribing the racing association has done something to the race car in an attempt to cause an accident to claim the life of my woman. If not for Bailey's timely intuition, we would have blamed it on the race car. This woman is good.”

“What should we do next, Mr. Luther?”

Artemis' lips spread into a thin, cruel smile, which was the foreshadowing of his rage. Someone was about to suffer.
