Chapter 800 She Had Fallen Into A Trap

Veikko pursed his lips tightly, belatedly realizing that something was off, but it was already too late.

After a moment of silence, he slowly lowered his head and said tearfully, “I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so reckless.”

Bailey sighed silently. She understood Veikko's feelings, having seen how miserable the young man was when she saved him on that rainy night.

The only thing that could redeem him now was ending Shaun's life or the solace of his closest kin. His mother, who he relied on for survival, had passed away, and given his character, he would never allow anyone to disrespect his mother's ashes.

The decision Veikko made was, in fact, within Bailey's expectations. However, he was still too young and not calm enough when facing problems. In the end, not only was he deceived, but he also made a huge mistake.

“Enough with the useless talk. Hurry up and send someone to investigate Caridee's whereabouts,” Artemis said in a low voice, awakening Veikko from his guilt and self-reproach.

As soon as realization dawned upon him, Veikko hurriedly took his phone and went to the side to make a call. Artemis tilted his head and looked at Bailey, who was beside him, and asked, “What do you think?”

“There's a mole within the Saviors branch,” Bailey said lightly as she glanced at him. After saying that, she walked leisurely toward the car. Artemis raised his eyebrows.

It looks like someone is going to suffer.

The two of them waited in the car for a short while until Veikko returned.

“Caridee left voluntarily. She received a call from a welfare center in Capston and left in a hurry. I guess something happened at the welfare center, and the staff there called her. As for my personal bodyguard, I still can't get in touch with him for now,” Veikko reported.

Welfare center?

Bailey turned her gaze towards Artemis beside her. Without her needing to ask, Artemis understood her confusion and explained, “Caridee enjoys doing charity work. She has been to many countries and sponsored numerous welfare centers. The one in Capston should be one of them.”

After hearing that, the corner of Bailey's lips curled into a smirk.


“Perhaps we can intercept them if we hurry. Let's go to the welfare center.” Artemis smiled faintly and agreed,

“Indeed, there's still a chance. Aren't we in the eastern suburb right now? The welfare center should not be far from here. After all the scheming, they ended up failing here. Anyone smart enough wouldn't have lured Veikko to the eastern suburb.”

The private airport was located in the eastern suburb, and so was the welfare center. When Veikko realized something was wrong, he could immediately change direction and headed to the welfare center. That was why Artemis said the other party's scheme might end up in vain.

“Is this the code for your personal bodyguard?” Bailey retrieved the message from the communicator and handed it to Veikko.

Veikko lowered his head, glanced, and nodded.

“Yes. So you came to the eastern suburb because he informed you?”

“The code is indeed his, but the person who sent the message is definitely not him. There's someone with ulterior motives in our branch. We'll deal with it thoroughly once this matter is resolved.”

Bailey sneered. Veikko slowly clenched his fist upon hearing that. They had messed with Caridee, which was like touching his sore spot.

Even without Bailey's instructions, he would also find out who was behind it.

At the same time, at Sunray Welfare Center, Caridee hurriedly rushed into the welfare center after parking her car at the entrance. As soon as she stepped on the field outside the welfare center, she sensed that something was off.

Wasn't there a fire? Why is the air inside still so fresh, devoid of any suffocating odors?

Caridee instantly kept her guard up and did not proceed any further. Slowly, she stopped in her tracks and began to observe her surroundings carefully.

The buildings were intact, with no signs of fire damage. In other words, Connie had lied to her.

Why? Why did she deceive me?

To her knowledge, Connie had always been a loving person. Caridee had decided to sponsor Connie after hearing that the latter had spent all her savings to help a group of orphans. Later, when the welfare center was established, Connie took in many orphans.

Over the years, she had been dedicated and stayed true to her initial intentions. Why would Connie suddenly call Caridee and lie about something happening at the welfare center? Could it be...

Not knowing what came to her mind, Caridee's expression suddenly darkened and she turned around to leave. She had fallen into a trap.

“You want to leave? It won't be that easy. We poured so much effort just to catch you. Do you really think you can escape?”

Behind her, a cold, mocking laugh sounded. Caridee trembled with fear upon hearing that, but she did not stop walking. Instead, she continued walking straight toward the door. Five meters, three meters...

The way out was right in front of her. However, suddenly, several bodyguards dressed in black barged in, blocking the door completely.

All of a sudden, Caridee stopped in her tracks, gritted her teeth, and asked angrily, “What do you mean by this? Do you really intend to commit a crime in broad daylight?”

The bodyguards did not say a word. The cold female voice sounded again from behind.

“Ms. Caridee, you'd better behave and comply. We promise not to harm a single hair on your head. On the contrary, if you insist on resisting, my people are not the type to show mercy. If you end up getting hurt, that would be unfortunate.”
