Chapter 715 Ruin Your Face

She had always been decisive and would act quickly once she made up her mind.

Since she had determined to adopt Zain's treatment plan, she didn't hesitate any further.

Moreover, Veronique's condition had progressed to a highly critical stage and couldn't be delayed any longer. For every day they waited, the probability of her being cured would decrease.

Beep!

As the call connected, an amused voice sounded from the receiver.

“I can't believe you took the initiative to contact me. So, tell me. Have you or someone close to you been poisoned by Soul Reaper?”

Bailey was slightly taken aback. Why did he ask a question like that? Soul Reaper is the restricted poison in the Yablon family and has always been sealed inside their family's ancestral hall. It hasn't appeared in the outside world for decades, and no outsiders knew how to create this poison. It sounds like... “Don't tell me your family's Soul Reaper was stolen and is now circulating in the outside world.”

A snicker came from the other end of the call. “How could an item my family has guarded for generations be so easily stolen? Didn't you previously swear you wouldn't contact me unless you've been poisoned with Soul Reaper? Now that you're calling me, I assumed you were poisoned.”

Bailey was rendered speechless. This jerk has a good memory. I can't believe he still remembers what I said even though I've forgotten all about it.

“As long as the Yablon family doesn't lose Soul Reaper, I won't be poisoned by it. That's enough. Cut the nonsense, and let’s get to the point. Come to Hallsbay. I need your help.”

A low chuckle sounded from the phone's speaker, followed by the voice of a man, which was laced with hints of mockery.

"Only you can be so shameless, Bailey. You're requesting another person's help, yet you're still so arrogant. Putting aside why you need my help, I will consider going to Hallsbay if you ruin your face first. The scar on the corner of my eye shouldn't be there for nothing.”

Bailey didn't respond immediately.

Instead, she took a deep breath to suppress her boiling rage before uttering through gritted teeth, “Cameron, can you be reasonable? If it weren't for your persistence to cling to me back then, why would I-”

At that point, she abruptly caught herself. Hold on. Why do my words sound so ambiguous?

"Yes, that's right. I was indeed persistent in clinging to you in the past. Unfortunately, you didn't bother to reciprocate my feelings, causing all my heartfelt shows of affection to go to waste. I—”

She raised her voice and yelled, "Stop it. Talk like a normal person. A scheming and cunning person like you, pretending to be a

romantic saint, is really nauseating. If I disfigure my face, will you come to Hallsbay?”

Cameron laughed quietly. “Don't do that. I look at a painting of you every day and am already used to seeing your exquisite face. It'll be such a waste if your face is ruined. I'm just kidding, so don't take it seriously.”

"Perv*rt.” Only a pervert will stare at the portrait of their enemy every day.

She leaned against a rack in exasperation. “Quit yapping and give me a straight answer. Will you come to Hallsbay or not?”

“Of course, I'm going. How can I refuse a beauty's invitation? Wait for me. I—”

Without waiting for him to finish, she hung up and slammed the phone on the table.

“What an ‘sshole! If it weren't because I needed his help, I wouldn't take the initiative to contact him even if someone were to threaten me to do it with my life.”

Their conversation was on loudspeaker, so Zeke heard everything they said.

His intuition as a man told him Artemis might be facing another formidable rival in love.

"All right. Don't be mad. We'll just wait for his arrival since he has agreed to come to Hallsbay. If you don't want to see him, I'll negotiate with him.”
