Chapter 817 Registering Our Marriage In Illurasia
Zoey did not kill Bailey, despite the fact that she was lying in front of her. Instead, she insisted on taking photos to
expose Bailey. Isn't she afraid that Bailey might take advantage of this opportunity to turn the tables? That's why
Zoey couldn't beat Bailey in the past—she was too foolish. I have to track down this fool before Tucker does.
Otherwise, if she fell into Tucker's hands, she would definitely expose me, saying that I instigated her to assassinate
Bailey at the winery. By then, Tucker would surely turn against me, and I would lose the support of the Hoffman
family.
In the back garden of the research base, Lindsey was tiptoeing through the flower bushes when she suddenly felt a
weight on her shoulder. Instinctively, she wanted to cry out in surprise.
The other party reached out to cover her mouth, lowered their voice, and said, “Ms. Carter, don't be afraid. I'm the
one who asked you to meet me here.”
Hearing that, Lindsey quickly nodded in agreement. After the other party withdrew their hand, she immediately
turned around.
“Mr. Warren? Aren't you the person in charge of the base?”
Speaking of that, she widened her eyes instantly.
“So you are not working for the Shurmer family, but for the Hoffman family?” Nicholas Warren said nonchalantly,
“People always strive for a better life. Whichever side offers me more benefits, that's who I'll work for. Ms. Carter,
this isn't the issue you should be focusing on. I received a task from Mr. Hoffman. He asked me to investigate
whether Bailey was really dead or not. After much thought, I believe that you are the most suitable person to look
into this matter.”
A hint of surprise flashed in Lindsey's eyes.
“I heard that Bailey left for the appointment last night and never returned because she was killed. Why do I have to
find out if she is alive or dead? Don't tell me that she can come back to life. Besides, I have no connections to the
base, so how can I even conduct an investigation?” Nicholas nodded.

as well? Well, we can work together. You help me investigate the situation thoroughly, and if Bailey really isn't dead,
we can strike again, making sure she dies for good this time.”
“All right. Where should I look it up?” Lindsey inquired.
“Ms. Caridee is at the base, isn't she? Try to get close to her and see if you can gather some useful information
from her,” Nicholas suggested. Lindsey's eyes lit up in an instant.
“That's a great idea! Caridee might know whether Bailey is really dead or not. Let's do it this way. Wait for my
news.”
“All right.”
At the same time, inside the laboratory, Bailey had already neutralized the toxin in the enhancer and was now
working on creating an antidote for Bloodlust.
Once Blaze arrived the next day, she would explain that she was the one who neutralized the toxin and prepared
the antidote.
“Bay...”
Artemis walked in from outside and said gravely, “The situation might have changed. I'm afraid we can't keep the
news of your survival from Philip and Sofie anymore.”
Bailey tilted her head and looked at him, asking puzzledly, “Did something happen again?”
“The informant I placed at Tucker's place reported that Zoey went to his winery, took a photo of the suicide
attacker who was impersonating you, and is preparing to upload the photo so that people all around the world can
see your...”
“Haha.” Bailey sneered coldly.
“Only a fool like Zoey would do such a stupid thing. No one else could pull that off. If I were to guess, it must have
been Kurt who instigated her to do it. Considering the various forces backing me, he didn't dare to kill me, fearing
that it would stir up trouble and ultimately lead to him being besieged. But after all, I killed Cadence, so it was
inevitable that he would want to take revenge for his brother. Since he couldn't do it himself, he had to rely on
someone else. That's why he arranged for Zoey to enter Tucker's winery. It's such a pity that Zoey, that fool, is
simply a lost cause. The person is right in front of her, yet she doesn't kill them to eliminate future troubles. Kurt
really shot himself in the foot this time. His secret plan with Tucker to put “Bailey” into a fake death state is about to
be discovered by Philip and Sofie.”
Upon seeing her analyze the situation so clearly, Artemis couldn't help but laugh and say, “You're really getting
smarter and smarter, being able to think of all this. Once the photos are released by Zoey, Sofie and Philip will
know that you aren't dead, and the situation might change. How can you not be worried at all?”
Bailey was somewhat speechless.
“What's the rush? The suicide attacker who's impersonating me hasn't been exposed yet, right? Don't worry. When
the time comes, it won't be us who suffer, but Tucker and Kurt. Philip will teach them a harsh lesson. To be honest,
Zoey's meddling has actually caused Kurt and Sofie to drift apart. There will definitely be major conflicts within their
group.”
Artemis reached out and hugged her.
“My wife is too smart. What should I do with you?”
Bailey lazily leaned against him and said in a coquettish tone, “Hubby, I don't want to deal with these annoying
matters anymore. I'll leave them all to you to handle.”
Hearing that, Artemis reached out and pinched her nose, his voice low and husky, saying, “All right, I'll handle it. You
should have been prepared for this a long time ago.”
Bailey looked up at him. Noticing that his complexion was quite healthy, she quickly reached out to check his pulse.
“Has all the remaining toxin in your body been removed?”
Artemis gave a faint smile and replied, “Yes. Cameron gave me the complete dose before he left. After taking it, I
was cured. He probably didn't want you to face the dangers ahead, so he kindly healed me, allowing me to shoulder
this burden.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe smile on Bailey's face became brighter.
“Well, now I can rest assured and leave everything for you to handle. Artemis, after we settle things with Sofie and
Philip, how about we go to Illurasia and register our marriage?”
The marriage duration in Illurasia was a hundred years, and she thought that he should understand her intentions.
“Understood. I'll listen to you,” he replied.
“Hehe.”
Inside a bar in Xemrich, Kurt barged into a private room while dragging Zoey with him. After slamming the door
shut, he roughly threw her onto the couch.
Zoey felt dizzy and disoriented after the fall, unable to recover for a moment. Kurt looked at the few provocative
photos on her phone, originally wanting to smash it to pieces on the ground.
On second thought, he held himself back. He felt that using those photos of Bailey to provoke Cameron seemed like
a good idea.
That guy really likes Bailey, doesn't he? Making him see Bailey in such a humiliated state should be a form of
torture too.
“Idiot! I told you to kill Bailey, but you wasted such a good opportunity and almost got me killed too. It seems like
you're asking for death.”
Zoey suddenly came to a realization and asked with a surprised look on her face, “How did you know where I was?
You even managed to find me at the internet cafe.”
She was filled with hatred. After all, she was just one step away from uploading those photos to the internet. Kurt
coldly glared at her and sneered.
“Do you really think I, a top poison-crafting expert who is on par with Cameron, am just for show? Before, when you
came into contact with me, you picked up my scent. My poisonous mouse can track it down. Since you couldn't
complete the task, only death awaits you.”
After saying that, he approached her with a gloomy face. Zoey was terrified by his fearsome appearance and
stumbled forward, hugging his thigh.
“Please don't kill me. I promise I'll obey your orders this time and kill Bailey. Just give me one more chance.”
