Chapter 696 A Bad Feeling

Philip shot her an amused look. “What do you think will divert their attention so they will stop monitoring the entry and exit points of Hallsbay?”

Sofie gazed at him silently for some time before realization dawned upon her.

“Are you saying that we should expose this farmhouse so they will show up here? Once they send their men here, the entry and exit points will be...”

Philip's hand gently brushed against her cheek. “You're still as smart as ever, but luck wasn't on your side this time. Don't worry; one failure doesn't define us. Once we leave Hallsbay, we'll have plenty of opportunities to take them on.”

Sofie slapped his hand away. “We need to leave now. I'll arrange for my men to keep an eye on Steven and order them to expose our hideaway to attract Bailey and Artemis.”

Philip's lips curved into a mysterious smile. “I'm afraid I can't leave the country with you just yet. My hands are tied dealing with Zeke. Remember the plan I told you about? I intend to 'rescue' Steven by coincidence and then demand a reward from Zeke so that he'll owe me a favor.”

Sofie frowned. “It sounds like a risky plan. If things don't go according to plan, you could be in danger. Our whole plan would be compromised if you end up in danger,” she cautioned.

Philip gave her shoulder a comforting pat and grinned. “Don't worry about me, as I know how to take good care of myself. Before coming to Hallsbay, I made the preparations to make sure everything went according to my plan.”

Sofie contemplated his response for a moment before nodding. “You're right. As long as we keep our relationship hidden, you should be safe. As for your plan to 'save' Steven and get Zeke to owe you a favor, you need to be extremely careful. We can't afford any mistakes that could put you in danger.”

“Mm.” Philip nodded.

Sofie inquired, “Do you think we can leave Hallsbay tonight without being noticed? Several forces are monitoring the entry and exit points of Hallsbay. It's not just Artemis and Bailey's men, as Mr. Raiden's elite forces from Dellmoor are also keeping watch. Have you dealt with them?”

“Rest assured. If Artemis and Zeke decide to come here, they'll redirect their men to surround the farmhouse instead of monitoring the entry and exit points. As for Mr. Raiden, he left Hallsbay secretly this noon as something happened to his father without informing anyone. This means that those left to monitor the entry and exit points have no leader, making it easier for us to leave Hallsbay undetected,” Philip assured Sofie.


“Okay. I trust you,” came Sofie's reply.

Back at the medical base, Artemis entered the ward and found Bailey leaning against the bed, absorbed in her phone. He approached her and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead.

“I need to leave, but I'll be back soon. You can sleep or keep Edmund company,” he told her.

Bailey's gaze flickered as she looked at her phone.

It's ten forty at night, and he never heads out this late. Something urgent must've happened.

“What happened? Tell me about me. Don't you dare hide anything from me.”

Artemis let out a chuckle. “I wasn't planning on keeping anything from you. I just received news that our men have located the hiding spot of Sofie and the others. It's a farmhouse a few miles away from the eastern outskirts. Zeke and I are heading there to investigate.”

Bailey lifted her blanket, ready to hop off her bed. “I'll come with you.”

Artemis applied pressure on her arm. “I told you about the situation, not so you can act recklessly. Stay in bed. Don't move.”

Bailey pouted. “Did you yell at me? You no longer love me anymore.”

The veins on Artemis' foreheads bulged.

Seriously?

He gently admonished Bailey, “You're still recovering, so it's not safe for you to be moving around. Please take care of yourself, okay? If anything happens to you, I-I won't talk to you anymore!”

Bailey burst out laughing.

His threat sounded weak, but she loved it.

“Okay, I'll do as you say. Please don't be angry with me. It gives me a headache when you ignore me.”

“Stay in your ward, and don't go anywhere else. I've called my mother, and she'll come here to keep you company,” Artemis told her.

After watching him leave, Bailey stared at her phone and fell into deep thought.

Sofie's request to release Yvette seems unreasonable, especially since she knows that her own whereabouts could be exposed if she continues to stall for time. It makes me wonder what Sofie's true intentions are. What is she thinking? Now that her hiding spot has been revealed, is she still within the farmhouse? If she isn't there, where could she be? Steven is still in her hands, but she has never used him. What could her plan be?

It was possible that women have a sharper sixth sense than men. When Bailey heard that Sofie's location had been revealed, she didn't immediately think about the number of guards stationed around the farmhouse but instead wondered where Sofie had fled to. Her intuition suggested that Zeke and Artemis' ambush might not be successful.
