Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis)

Chapter 827

Chapter 827 Thank Goodness

Inside the infirmary of the mansion in the suburbs, Shaun stared blankly at the woman whom the

bodyguards threw onto the hospital bed, his eyes filled with surprise.

“Uh... W-What...”

Lindsey walked in shortly after, smiling as she said, “Shaun, you wanted this woman, didn't you? Well,

I've brought her here for you. You can take it out on her if there's anything you're mad about. She

deserves it. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have suffered so much.”

Shaun thought he was seeing an illusion, so he shook his head and blinked repeatedly.

No matter how many times he did that, the face he loathed to the bone still remained before his eyes.

“Caridee... It's really her, eh? Haha! The heavens are truly on my side. This bitch is finally in my

hands.” Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

After letting out a roar, he suddenly turned his head to look at Lindsey, who stood beside him. “How did

you get her?”

Lindsey briefly recounted the course of events.

“Wonderful.” Shaun burst into wild laughter. “That b*stard at home likes this woman, doesn't he? That

d*mned person actually dared to cripple me because of her. And now his first crush is in my hands; I've

got him by the throat. It'll be my loss if I don't torture him.”

Lindsey chuckled softly and then quietly slipped out of the room.

Moments later, a chilling scream echoed within the room, intermingled with a string of curses.

The smile on Lindsey's face gradually contorted as she listened to the delicate and helpless cries.

Once her elder brother had vented his anger, he would probably help her fight for her marriage.

“Ms. Carter, you're really speedy and decisive. I admire that.”

A playful male voice reached her ears, pulling Lindsey back from her wandering thoughts.

She instinctively looked up, meeting Tucker's twinkling eyes.

“Well, I must thank you, Mr. Tucker. Without your assistance, Caridee wouldn't have been able to

escape from the base so easily.”

The disdain in Tucker's eyes grew even more intense after he heard those words.

He would not have needed to create a fake Caridee if he could actually get the real one out of the

base.

What a joke. This foolish woman actually believes I bribed someone at the base to release Caridee.

Although the person in charge of the base was actually a mole from the Hoffman family, Tucker could

not get Caridee out because Zeke had people watching her around the clock.

“Ms. Carter, you flatter me. We both stand to benefit from our cooperation. Did you happen to put in a

good word for me in front of Mr. Carter just now?”

“Don't worry, Mr. Tucker. I've told my brother that you've made a great effort to capture Caridee.”

“All right. Thank you so much, Ms. Carter. If you ever need anything in the future, don't hesitate to ask.

I will do my best to fulfill your request.”

“Thank you, Mr. Tucker.”

With a few hearty laughs, Tucker then strolled toward the ward.

The door was wide open, and a heart-wrenching scream came from within.

He stood at the doorway, taking in the gruesome scene inside the room.

Everyone said that Shaun had a twisted mind and ruthless methods. Whatever he saw that day had

confirmed the rumors.

Although the man was impotent, it did not stop him from tormenting women.

No one knew where he got the iron rod from, but he was incessantly poking Astrid with it.

That scene was too gruesome.

Even a man like Tucker found it hard to bear.

This torment continued for about ten minutes, until finally, the screams inside the room ceased. Astrid,

having been tortured to the brink of exhaustion, passed out completely.

Shaun felt much better. As he walked to the door, he said to Tucker, “Sorry for any inconvenience,

Tucker.”

Tucker chuckled, “There's no need for that. She's already in your hands now. There's plenty of time

ahead for you to enjoy her company. There's no need to rush at this moment. It's just that we should

focus on the main task at hand now. They are preparing to attack the Tarragon Headquarters. It's time

for you to fulfill your promise and send reinforcements.”

At this point, he quickly added, “Don't worry, Mr. Carter. As soon as we successfully take control of the

situation, we will immediately withdraw all of Tarragon's forces from Epea. From now on, the Carter

family will be in charge of the whole of Epea. We will never set foot in that region to compete with you

for territory.”

Shaun waved his hand lightly and said, “I want to add another condition in addition to this. If you're not

the one calling the shots, then get your leader to come and talk to me. Once we reach an agreement,

I'll lend a hand and help you attack the Tarragon Headquarters.”

Tucker raised his eyebrow, a glint flickering in his eyes, “Go on.”

“Help me deal with that young man from the Saviors. With Bailey gone, he's lost his support. It

shouldn't be too difficult if we join forces to take him down.”

Without a second thought, Tucker immediately agreed, “Your enemies are my enemies. Even if you

didn't ask, I would have helped you all the same. Besides, you already have a hold on that dude's

weakness. All you need to do is make good use of the woman in the room and just wait for that dude to

fall into the trap.”

Shaun burst into hearty laughter. “Very well. I'll arrange for some people to help you. Give me two

days.”

“Okay.”

At the same moment, at Sofie's residence, The two old-timers had just finished their exercise and were

lounging lazily on the couch.

“I've received word that the persistent dude on Intel Island has mobilized all his forces. It seems he

wants to challenge us for our territory. What's your take on this?”

Philip gave a cold laugh, his voice hoarse as he said, “What's there to fear? You can just mobilize all

your forces to take him down, can't you? I'll mobilize half of the Hoffman family, and Shaun will mobilize

the Carter family's men as well. With all these forces combined, aren't we stronger than that dude? We

are bound to win this battle.”

Sofie pulled away from his embrace, her beautiful face solemn as if she was deep in thought.

“You want me to mobilize all the men?”

“What else can you do? If you want to defeat Mr. Doyle, you must proceed this way. Bailey and Artemis

are dead, while Holden can only obediently follow your orders because you know what his weakness

is. What else are you afraid of? Victory is just one step away. It's not the time to conserve your

strength.”

After a moment of silence, Sofie gritted her teeth and nodded. “All right, let's do it this way. By the way,

have you heard from Zoey?”

Philip shook his head and sighed. “I've searched the whole of Moranta and found no trace of her. Don't

let her distract you. We must prioritize the bigger issues now.”

“Hmm. I was planning to use her to keep Kurt in check and make him work obediently for us. But that

girl... Forget it. Since she's no longer of any use, it's time to give up on her.”

Meanwhile, Veikko rushed to the research base's infirmary.

Seeing Caridee comfortably leaning against the headboard and watching TV, he strode over and swept

her into his arms.

“Thank goodness. Thank goodness you didn't fall into that beast's hands. Thank goodness. Thank

goodness...”

He kept repeating the words “thank goodness” as if he had experienced some tremendous shock.

Caridee was finding it hard to breathe due to his tight hug. She could not help but frown when she felt

his body trembling slightly.

“Can you tell me what happened?”
