Chapter 1099 I Will Make You Know Betrayal
At the summit above the hot springs, Faceless held binoculars, observing the situation below.
Black Puma stood nearby, eager and ready, with an excited expression on his rugged face.
Just now, news came from the winery that Artemis had been injured, and they were forced into the hot
spring pool.
A decisive strike at this moment could undoubtedly kill Rebecca and Artemis.
With their demise, there would be no one to restrain his expansion of business territory.
"You've got some skills, forcing Artemis into a desperate situation, making him face a dilemma,"
Faceless remarked. "I'll send someone to kill them, ensuring they don't escape and continue to
threaten me and suppress my endeavors."
After speaking, he turned around, preparing to leave.
Faceless put away the binoculars and casually said, "If you don't want to see your stronghold crushed,
just stay put."
Black Puma abruptly halted, looking at her with some gloominess. He asked, "What do you mean by
that? If Rebecca and Artemis are dead, who would crush my stronghold?"
Faceless calmly said, "Bailey. Don't underestimate that woman's methods. If she exhausts the entire
power of The Saviors to besiege you, not to mention you, even Tarragon won't fare well. Moreover, do
you think you can kill Artemis with all your might? Don't be naive. That man is extraordinary, almost
unmatched. You can't kill him. Even if by some chance you manage to, you won't escape the retaliation
from Bailey and the Luther family. Stirring up a hornet's nest is not a pleasant experience. Don't attempt
it."
Black Puma roared in frustration, "Then why did you go through the trouble of arranging this act? Just
want to see Sutton and Luther roll in the hay? After they're done, they'll still come after us. Isn't your
move pointless?"
"Who said it's pointless?" Faceless wiped the lens of the binoculars while speaking. "I've said it before,
Bailey has zero tolerance for mistakes. If she sees Luther and Sutton entangled, she'll surely make a
big fuss. At that time, you can seize the opportunity to escape Zaewora and start fresh somewhere
else. Black Puma, if you're planning to kill Artemis, I advise you to give up early. The Luther family, the
Shurmer family, Tarragon, and the Saviors are all intertwined. If you manage to kill Artemis, don't think
you'll live. Luther and Shurmer will tear you apart, and Tarragon will ensure your complete destruction.
I'm not trying to scare you, it's your choice."
Upon hearing her words, Black Puma immediately hesitated again, running his hand through his hair,
feeling a bit frustrated. "Such a good opportunity, should I really let it slip?"
Faceless leisurely said, "Indeed, such a great opportunity should be seized and utilized to its fullest
potential."
After saying this, she took out her phone and composed a message to a certain number: "Double the
dosage of the stupefying drug in the hot spring pool. I want to see the effects in two minutes."
After sending the message, Faceless looked toward the other side of the mountain.
"Oh, Bailey, all these years you've been suppressing me. Even the vision I've yearned for is in your
hands. You're making it impossible for me to establish my own sect. Today, I'll give you a big gift. I'll
formally declare war on you. I hope you enjoy it."
Inside the hot spring pool, Artemis noticeably felt his body temperature rising faster and the
surrounding air becoming thin.
Rebecca wiped the sweat from her forehead, leaning against a fake rock, catching her breath.
"Chief Luther, something seems off. They don't seem intent on killing us. If that were the case, they
would have come in and attacked us a long time ago, especially since we've been in here injured. Now,
they seem to be unaware, waiting for the effects of the drug to kick in, hoping we'll do something
irrational. Could it be that they just want to meddle in our affairs?" Rebecca expressed her concern. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Artemis scoffed.
They were certainly not trying to meddle or play matchmaker for him and Rebecca.
The reason why Faceless went to such lengths to dig such a big trap for them was simply to use his
affair to undermine Bailey.
This tactic could be described as both cunning and sophisticated.
Upon careful consideration, he realized that Faceless indeed wouldn't kill him.
Killing him wouldn't benefit her in any way.
To strike at Bailey, all she needed was to set up his betrayal.
After all, killing him wouldn't only anger Bailey but also all the forces behind him.
How desperate would Faceless have to be to kill him and invite countless troubles upon herself?
Once he realized this, he wasn't worried about rushing out and losing his life.
"They have no intention of killing us. We shouldn't linger here. Help me up, and let's break out of here,"
he said to Rebecca.
Rebecca clenched her teeth, determination radiating from her gaze.
In this crucial moment, she understood that if she couldn't seize this opportunity, any hope for the rest
of her life would be lost.
"Okay, let's get moving," she declared.
Despite her confident tone, her grip wasn't firm.
Attempting to rise, her legs buckled, and she harshly descended back to the ground.
"No, I can't. My legs are feeble; I can't stand up."
Artemis couldn't rely on her. Choosing to support himself with a stone, he, too, found his legs giving
way, landing him back on the ground.
Just like her, a wave of weakness swept through his legs, and he found himself sitting back down
again.
These movements heightened the blood circulation, exacerbating the effects of the drug.
Gradually, Artemis's awareness started to fade, and as his determination completely crumbled, he
neared his limit.
Ultimately, he had to let nature take its course.
Rebecca sighed. "Chief Luther, we only have two options: live or die. What's your choice?"
"Live."
"In that case, we shall..."
Her words came to an abrupt halt.
Eerie sounds reverberated from the hot spring pool.
Inside, surveillance meticulously recorded every motion.
When Faceless caught the faint noises through her earpiece, she let out a sigh of relief.
At the end of the day, this was all Artemis could be.
Hadn't he professed deep love for Bailey?
And yet, what was the outcome?
He succumbed to temptation!
"Bailey, I'll ensure you experience the bitterness of betrayal and abandonment first. After that, I'll claim
what I desire from you," Faceless pledged.
As Bailey arrived at the winery, she encountered a prepared Ken at the entrance.
Upon seeing her, Ken's expression displayed shock.
"Mrs. Luther, why are you here in Zaewora?" he asked.
Bailey didn't respond to that; instead, she asked, "What's happening inside? Can you still contact Mr.
Luther?"
Ken shook his head. "I was able to reach him three minutes ago, but now there's no signal. However, I
know where he went."
"Where?"
"To the hot spring pool on the southwest side. I received information that Orion has been confined there
by Faceless. Mr. Luther rushed to the hot spring pool as soon as he heard about it, and then I lost
contact with him."
Bailey's heart skipped a beat.
Another hot spring pool.
The imposter Faceless had also infiltrated the winery through the hot spring pool. Now that they led him
to the hot spring pool, what could their purpose be?
"Where is Rebecca now?"
Ken remained silent, turning his head to look at a man dressed in camouflage.
Bailey followed his gaze and then sternly said, "Speak, where is Rebecca right now?"
The man in camouflage hesitated.
The strict orders from the organization reminded him that the commander's whereabouts couldn't be
disclosed.
