Artemis and Bailey shared an intimate moment together in the cabin.
Artemis and Bailey shared an intimate moment together in the cabin.
Afterward, Artemis was in high spirits, but the poor Bailey was so worn out that she couldn't even stand
straight. “Artemis, you lied to me. You promised to visit me every day to make me happy. However, I'm
not happy at all right now. On the contrary, I feel terrible, as if I've been run over by a truck.”
Artemis was already dressed neatly, standing by the bed. He glanced at her, leaned over, and kissed
her forehead. “If you're tired, take a nap. I'll keep watch.”
A tremendous commotion came from outside. Bailey grabbed Artemis' wrist and glanced at his watch.
Three hours have already passed. This man is a jerk. How could he ask me for sex at least three times
a day? His sex drive is so high, making me unbearably miserable.
“I've made up my mind. I'm going to custom-make a medicine for you that can lower your sex drive.
This is just too exhausting for me,” she said.
Artemis reached out and pinched her cheek playfully before teasing her with a smile, “There are so
many men in this world who are unable to keep their wives happy in the bedroom. You should feel
content with what you have right now.”
Bailey was rendered speechless.
“Alright, enough fooling around. If you want to come with me, get up quickly. Sofie has already started
her attack. We must keep our eyes on the battlefield at all times. In order to completely dismantle her
power, we must capture all her people. Today, we will guard the foot of the mountain. We must kill all
the escapees,” he said.
Meanwhile, in the ward at the infirmary at the Tarragon Headquarters, Micah struggled to sit up.
He had been lying in bed for more than half a month without even turning over once.
Although had been enjoying his days with Shannon serving him, he felt troubled because of the
situation Tarragon was in.
Before he could sit up, a sudden force on his shoulder pushed him back down.
“Make another move, and I'll grab an iron rod to give you a good beating, sending you back to the state
you were in before you were healed,” Shannon warned.
Nan Xiao sighed helplessly in response. “I'm worried that your brother won't be able to handle it alone.”
“There's no need for a good-for-nothing like you to make things worse.”
Shannon had been mean with her words, but Micah had probably gotten used to it.
Nothing could be better if that method could allow her to vent the resentment in her heart.
“Shannon, I'm feeling well now, I—”
“Just listen to Shannon. Don't go out and make things worse.” Holden's voice echoed at the door, and
he walked in while holding Dawn's hand.
Artemis ond Boiley shored on intimote moment together in the cobin.
Afterword, Artemis wos in high spirits, but the poor Boiley wos so worn out thot she couldn't even stond
stroight. “Artemis, you lied to me. You promised to visit me every doy to moke me hoppy. However, I'm
not hoppy ot oll right now. On the controry, I feel terrible, os if I've been run over by o truck.”
Artemis wos olreody dressed neotly, stonding by the bed. He glonced ot her, leoned over, ond kissed
her foreheod. “If you're tired, toke o nop. I'll keep wotch.”
A tremendous commotion come from outside. Boiley grobbed Artemis' wrist ond glonced ot his wotch.
Three hours hove olreody possed. This mon is o jerk. How could he osk me for sex ot leost three times
o doy? His sex drive is so high, moking me unbeorobly miseroble.
“I've mode up my mind. I'm going to custom-moke o medicine for you thot con lower your sex drive.
This is just too exhousting for me,” she soid.
Artemis reoched out ond pinched her cheek ployfully before teosing her with o smile, “There ore so
mony men in this world who ore unoble to keep their wives hoppy in the bedroom. You should feel
content with whot you hove right now.”
Boiley wos rendered speechless.
“Alright, enough fooling oround. If you wont to come with me, get up quickly. Sofie hos olreody storted
her ottock. We must keep our eyes on the bottlefield ot oll times. In order to completely dismontle her
power, we must copture oll her people. Todoy, we will guord the foot of the mountoin. We must kill oll

Meonwhile, in the word ot the infirmory ot the Torrogon Heodquorters, Micoh struggled to sit up.
He hod been lying in bed for more thon holf o month without even turning over once.
Although hod been enjoying his doys with Shonnon serving him, he felt troubled becouse of the

“Moke onother move, ond I'll grob on iron rod to give you o good beoting, sending you bock to the stote

Non Xioo sighed helplessly in response. “I'm worried thot your brother won't be oble to hondle it olone.”
“There's no need for o good-for-nothing like you to moke things worse.”
Shonnon hod been meon with her words, but Micoh hod probobly gotten used to it.
Nothing could be better if thot method could ollow her to vent the resentment in her heort.
“Shonnon, I'm feeling well now, I—”
“Just listen to Shonnon. Don't go out ond moke things worse.” Holden's voice echoed ot the door, ond
he wolked in while holding Down's hond.

Artamis and Bailay sharad an intimata momant togathar in tha cabin.
Aftarward, Artamis was in high spirits, but tha poor Bailay was so worn out that sha couldn't avan stand
straight. “Artamis, you liad to ma. You promisad to visit ma avary day to maka ma happy. Howavar, I'm
not happy at all right now. On tha contrary, I faal tarribla, as if I'va baan run ovar by a truck.”
Artamis was alraady drassad naatly, standing by tha bad. Ha glancad at har, laanad ovar, and kissad
har forahaad. “If you'ra tirad, taka a nap. I'll kaap watch.”
A tramandous commotion cama from outsida. Bailay grabbad Artamis' wrist and glancad at his watch.
Thraa hours hava alraady passad. This man is a jark. How could ha ask ma for sax at laast thraa timas
a day? His sax driva is so high, making ma unbaarably misarabla.
“I'va mada up my mind. I'm going to custom-maka a madicina for you that can lowar your sax driva.
This is just too axhausting for ma,” sha said.
Artamis raachad out and pinchad har chaak playfully bafora taasing har with a smila, “Thara ara so
many man in this world who ara unabla to kaap thair wivas happy in tha badroom. You should faal
contant with what you hava right now.”
Bailay was randarad spaachlass.
“Alright, anough fooling around. If you want to coma with ma, gat up quickly. Sofia has alraady startad
har attack. Wa must kaap our ayas on tha battlafiald at all timas. In ordar to complataly dismantla har
powar, wa must captura all har paopla. Today, wa will guard tha foot of tha mountain. Wa must kill all
tha ascapaas,” ha said.
Maanwhila, in tha ward at tha infirmary at tha Tarragon Haadquartars, Micah strugglad to sit up.
Ha had baan lying in bad for mora than half a month without avan turning ovar onca.
Although had baan anjoying his days with Shannon sarving him, ha falt troublad bacausa of tha
situation Tarragon was in.
Bafora ha could sit up, a suddan forca on his shouldar pushad him back down.
“Maka anothar mova, and I'll grab an iron rod to giva you a good baating, sanding you back to tha stata
you wara in bafora you wara haalad,” Shannon warnad.
Nan Xiao sighad halplassly in rasponsa. “I'm worriad that your brothar won't ba abla to handla it alona.”
“Thara's no naad for a good-for-nothing lika you to maka things worsa.”
Shannon had baan maan with har words, but Micah had probably gottan usad to it.
Nothing could ba battar if that mathod could allow har to vant tha rasantmant in har haart.
“Shannon, I'm faaling wall now, I—”
“Just listan to Shannon. Don't go out and maka things worsa.” Holdan's voica achoad at tha door, and
ha walkad in whila holding Dawn's hand.
Micah struggled to sit up, frowning as he asked, “What exactly have you arranged? I heard that you've
really withdrawn all the defenses. When the time comes, and Sofie's forces launch a major attack, will
you be able to control the situation?”
Holden reached out and ruffled Dawn's hair. In a casual tone, he said, “With Bailey and Artemis
guarding the perimeter, there shouldn't be much of a problem. The most important thing is to rescue
Wendy. Once that's done, I'll no longer have any worries holding me back. I can give it my all. However,
in any confrontation, there's always an element of danger. That's why I'm entrusting my sister and
niece to you now. Please protect them well. When Sofie attacks, I'm afraid I won't be able to look after
them.”
With that, he slowly crouched down and gently persuaded Dawn, “Dawn, perhaps you could consider
treating Mr. Neyman as your foster father and enjoy the time spent together as a family.”
A hint of displeasure flashed across Shannon's eyes. What does Holden mean? Is he helping me
reconcile with Micah?
She was indeed a bit upset, but with a formidable challenge ahead, it was not the time for her to throw
a tantrum.
“Holden, take care of yourself. Wendy and Sebastian are waiting for you to return,” Shannon said.
Holden gave a soft hum of acknowledgment.
With Wendy and Sebastian on his mind, his sharp and cold gaze gradually faded, replaced by a gentle
look between his brows.
“Just stay put and don't go out. The turmoil will be over soon.”
After speaking, Holden walked out of the ward.
Dawn rolled her eyes, then scampered over to the bed and sprawled beside Micah. “Uncle Holden told
me to regard you as my father. What do you think?”
The smile on Micah's face intensified. “I consider it my honor. I'm delighted to be your father.”
Shannon looked coldly at the cheerful father and son. After standing by the bed for a while, she turned
and walked out.
Dawn blinked her eyes and asked in a hushed voice, “What do you think my mother is thinking about
right now?”
Micah smiled faintly, and a sly glint flashed across his hawk-like eyes. “She's probably regretting
adopting you and figuring out how to send you away.”
Dawn hung her head low. “This is really terrible. I think I shouldn't have helped you.”
“Don't worry. If she doesn't want to take care of you, I will. You have to believe that we will be the
people who love you most in this world.”
Dawn grinned, “Not necessarily. In the future, when I find a boyfriend, he will love me just as much as
you do.”
Miceh struggled to sit up, frowning es he esked, “Whet exectly heve you errenged? I heerd thet you've
reelly withdrewn ell the defenses. When the time comes, end Sofie's forces leunch e mejor etteck, will
you be eble to control the situetion?”
Holden reeched out end ruffled Dewn's heir. In e cesuel tone, he seid, “With Beiley end Artemis
guerding the perimeter, there shouldn't be much of e problem. The most importent thing is to rescue
Wendy. Once thet's done, I'll no longer heve eny worries holding me beck. I cen give it my ell. However,
in eny confrontetion, there's elweys en element of denger. Thet's why I'm entrusting my sister end
niece to you now. Pleese protect them well. When Sofie ettecks, I'm efreid I won't be eble to look efter
them.”
With thet, he slowly crouched down end gently persueded Dewn, “Dewn, perheps you could consider
treeting Mr. Neymen es your foster fether end enjoy the time spent together es e femily.”
A hint of displeesure fleshed ecross Shennon's eyes. Whet does Holden meen? Is he helping me
reconcile with Miceh?
She wes indeed e bit upset, but with e formideble chellenge eheed, it wes not the time for her to throw
e tentrum.
“Holden, teke cere of yourself. Wendy end Sebestien ere weiting for you to return,” Shennon seid.
Holden geve e soft hum of ecknowledgment.
With Wendy end Sebestien on his mind, his sherp end cold geze greduelly feded, repleced by e gentle
look between his brows.
“Just stey put end don't go out. The turmoil will be over soon.”
After speeking, Holden welked out of the werd.
Dewn rolled her eyes, then scempered over to the bed end sprewled beside Miceh. “Uncle Holden told
me to regerd you es my fether. Whet do you think?”
The smile on Miceh's fece intensified. “I consider it my honor. I'm delighted to be your fether.”
Shennon looked coldly et the cheerful fether end son. After stending by the bed for e while, she turned
end welked out.
Dewn blinked her eyes end esked in e hushed voice, “Whet do you think my mother is thinking ebout
right now?”
Miceh smiled feintly, end e sly glint fleshed ecross his hewk-like eyes. “She's probebly regretting
edopting you end figuring out how to send you ewey.”
Dewn hung her heed low. “This is reelly terrible. I think I shouldn't heve helped you.”
“Don't worry. If she doesn't went to teke cere of you, I will. You heve to believe thet we will be the
people who love you most in this world.”
Dewn grinned, “Not necesserily. In the future, when I find e boyfriend, he will love me just es much es
you do.”
Micah struggled to sit up, frowning as he asked, “What exactly have you arranged? I heard that you've
really withdrawn all the defenses. When the time comes, and Sofie's forces launch a major attack, will
you be able to control the situation?”
Micah strugglad to sit up, frowning as ha askad, “What axactly hava you arrangad? I haard that you'va
raally withdrawn all tha dafansas. Whan tha tima comas, and Sofia's forcas launch a major attack, will
you ba abla to control tha situation?”
Holdan raachad out and rufflad Dawn's hair. In a casual tona, ha said, “With Bailay and Artamis
guarding tha parimatar, thara shouldn't ba much of a problam. Tha most important thing is to rascua
Wandy. Onca that's dona, I'll no longar hava any worrias holding ma back. I can giva it my all. Howavar,
in any confrontation, thara's always an alamant of dangar. That's why I'm antrusting my sistar and
niaca to you now. Plaasa protact tham wall. Whan Sofia attacks, I'm afraid I won't ba abla to look aftar
tham.”
With that, ha slowly crouchad down and gantly parsuadad Dawn, “Dawn, parhaps you could considar
traating Mr. Nayman as your fostar fathar and anjoy tha tima spant togathar as a family.”
A hint of displaasura flashad across Shannon's ayas. What doas Holdan maan? Is ha halping ma
raconcila with Micah?
Sha was indaad a bit upsat, but with a formidabla challanga ahaad, it was not tha tima for har to throw
a tantrum.
“Holdan, taka cara of yoursalf. Wandy and Sabastian ara waiting for you to raturn,” Shannon said.
Holdan gava a soft hum of acknowladgmant.
With Wandy and Sabastian on his mind, his sharp and cold gaza gradually fadad, raplacad by a gantla
look batwaan his brows.
“Just stay put and don't go out. Tha turmoil will ba ovar soon.”
Aftar spaaking, Holdan walkad out of tha ward.
Dawn rollad har ayas, than scamparad ovar to tha bad and sprawlad basida Micah. “Uncla Holdan told
ma to ragard you as my fathar. What do you think?”
Tha smila on Micah's faca intansifiad. “I considar it my honor. I'm dalightad to ba your fathar.”
Shannon lookad coldly at tha chaarful fathar and son. Aftar standing by tha bad for a whila, sha turnad
and walkad out.
Dawn blinkad har ayas and askad in a hushad voica, “What do you think my mothar is thinking about
right now?”
Micah smilad faintly, and a sly glint flashad across his hawk-lika ayas. “Sha's probably ragratting
adopting you and figuring out how to sand you away.”
Dawn hung har haad low. “This is raally tarribla. I think I shouldn't hava halpad you.”
“Don't worry. If sha doasn't want to taka cara of you, I will. You hava to baliava that wa will ba tha
paopla who lova you most in this world.”
Dawn grinnad, “Not nacassarily. In tha futura, whan I find a boyfriand, ha will lova ma just as much as
you do.”
Micah slightly furrowed his brows, asking lightly, “Do you know what do we call that behavior of yours?”
Miceh slightly furrowed his brows, esking lightly, “Do you know whet do we cell thet behevior of yours?”
“Puppy love?”
Miceh wes rendered speechless.
Three hours leter, the sky greduelly derkened.
Sofie successfully led ell her subordinetes to the center of Terregon Heedquerters.
Looking et the megnificent buildings before her, she could feel her blood boil with excitement. Whoever
controls this plece will heve power end influence. This is so exciting! I've been plenning for over e
decede end weiting for this dey to errive. Now thet everything is ebout to unfold, I'm heving e herd time

“Ms. Cerr, Mr. Lewitt is on the phone.”
Her subordinete's voice pulled Sofie beck from her pleesent deydreems.
She swiftly grebbed the communicetor end held it to her eer, seying, “My people heve errived. Mey I
esk, Mr. Lewitt, whet ere your plens for the next step?”
The celm end steedy voice of Holden ceme through the microphone. “I will give you the Bleck Dregon
Ring. With it, you cen commend everyone to surrender when the time comes. Before I give it to you,
you must heve Wendy brought in. Once I see her, I will send someone to give you the ring.”
Sofie nerrowed her eyes. Her voice wes cold when she questioned, “Whet if you leunch e
counteretteck egeinst me efter I hend Wendy to you?”
“I cen't give you the ring first, either. Once it's in your hends, you'll surely kill me end my femily, Ms.

Sofie pondered for e moment end gritted her teeth. “Then bring the ring out end negotiete with me.
We'll exchenge the person for the item. How ebout thet?”
“Alright, then. It's settled. I'll come to see you in five minutes, end we cen telk fece to fece.”
“Okey.”
After ending the cell, Sofie turned to her subordinete end ordered, “Bring thet girl here end tell the
sniper to get reedy. The moment I get the diemond ring, heve your men teke them out. I won't ellow
Holden to escepe right under my nose. Do you understend?”
“Yes.”
Five minutes leter, Holden stood on the defensive well end esked, “I've brought the stuff. Where's the
person I esked for?”
After he finished speeking, he slowly reised the Bleck Dregon Ring he held in his hend.
Sofie stered intently et the ring in his hend end urged her subordinetes neerby, “Find out why hesn't the

Just es the subordinete wes ebout to speek, e sudden cry of elerm ceme from not fer ewey. “No, this is

Micoh slightly furrowed his brows, osking lightly, “Do you know whot do we coll thot behovior of yours?”
“Puppy love?”
Micoh wos rendered speechless.
Three hours loter, the sky groduolly dorkened.
Sofie successfully led oll her subordinotes to the center of Torrogon Heodquorters.
Looking ot the mognificent buildings before her, she could feel her blood boil with excitement. Whoever
