As there were aware that she had gone through a brutal collision, their hearts were in their throats, and they had all prepared for the worst.

Seeing Bailey shaking her head now, they subconsciously assumed that their worst fears had come true and that Felicity had not been saved.

Glen staggered back two steps with tears streaming down his face.

Yoel quickly grabbed him and said, tearing up, “Dad, I'm sorry for the loss... Felicity is...”

“She's not dead,” Bailey said helplessly. “I shook my head because her situation is very pessimistic, not because she didn't survive.”

Glen pushed his son aside and stood up straight, cursing angrily, “You d*mn brat, can't you talk properly? You scared the hell out of me.”

Bailey couldn't help but laugh. “I didn't say anything, okay? I just shook my head and sighed. Does shaking my head mean that she didn't survive? You guys are just too nervous.”

Glen choked up, snorted twice, and fell silent.

Gerald grabbed Bailey's arm and asked urgently, “Bay, what's the situation with your mother-in-law? Don't beat around the bush and tell us quickly.”

Bailey rubbed her forehead and said slowly, “A piece of glass plunged into her head and got stuck in the cranial part of the central nervous system. Although I removed the glass through surgery, damaging the brain nerves is a very serious matter. I'm not sure if she will wake up or not. If she doesn't, there is an eighty percent chance she will become a vegetable.”

A vegetable...

These words were like a heavy hammer slamming hard on their hearts.

Gerald clenched his teeth and asked, “Is being a vegetable the worst case scenario? Is there anything worse? If there is, tell us now. Don't hide it just because you're worried about our feelings.”

Bailey shook her head. “I'm sure she's going to make it, but whether she can wake up or not is really beyond my control. It all depends on her willpower.”

“Okay, thank you for your hard work.”

Bailey was silent for a moment, then slowly stepped back two steps and bowed to the Luther family and the Chivers family.

Glen became angry on the spot and rebuked her, “What are you doing?”

Bailey bowed slightly and said hoarsely, “I'm sorry. She could have escaped, but at a critical moment, she left the chance for survival to me. If it weren't for me dragging her down, she wouldn't be suffering like this today.”

Gerald was also somewhat dissatisfied and looked at Bailey with narrowed eyes. He said in a deep voice, “Bay, what you said is really hurtful. On your way to the Revelle family, Fliss sent me a message saying that you called her 'mom' and made her very happy. In times of crisis, she protected you, which is the same as protecting her own son. Do you understand?”

Bailey turned her head slightly, and tears that had been brimming in her eyes finally poured out.

Edmund stepped forward and patted her shoulder to comfort her. “Aunt Felicity had a car accident, and you saved her. But if you have a car accident, who will save you? If you die, many people will die with you.”

His words miraculously comforted Bailey. “You're right. I can't let anything happen to me. I still have a lot of things to do, such as finding the person who did this and making the person pay for what he's done.”

...

In a private mansion, there was a loud 'slap.'

Sofie slapped Zoey hard across the face.

“You id*ot, who gave you permission to act on your own? Do you realize that you almost ruined everything?”

Zoey hung her head, clutching her burning cheek with one hand as a cold gleam flashed in her eyes.

This old wretch! When I take over, she would be the first one I would torture. I'll make her wish for death.

“I just thought the opportunity was hard to come by, and besides, I used Scarlett to arrange the car accident. It wouldn't be traced back to me. Why are you so nervous?”

“You idiot,” Sofie cursed again. “If something happens to Bailey at this critical moment, do you think Artemis can stay at Tarragon headquarters? If he leaves, how can Yvette give him the memory loss drug?”

Zoey realized Sofie was right, and she almost messed things up.

Earlier, when she heard that it was Felicity and not Bailey who was seriously injured, she was really disappointed.

Now she realized she should be grateful that Bailey was fine. Otherwise, once Artemis left Tarragon headquarters, Yvette's plan would be ruined.

“Yes, I'm sorry, Mom. I really didn't expect things to get so serious. Fortunately, it wasn't Bailey who was hurt, and Artemis shouldn't be coming back so quickly.”

Thinking of her purpose for coming here, Zoey quickly said, “Scarlett called me and said that the drivers who caused the accident were all captured by someone mysterious and powerful. Therefore, she might be exposed. That b*tch threatened me, saying if I don't help her deal with this, she'll expose me.”

Sofie took a deep breath and calmed herself down. Then, she coldly said, “The Saviors captured them. They should be under Bailey's order. There were seven people in total. I sent our top assassin to kill six of them, but one is still missing.”

Zoey initially felt relieved, but hearing that one was still unaccounted for made her heart race again.

“Mom, we can't leave any of them alive. All of them have to die.”

Sofie gave her a cold stare. “Do you think I don't want to kill him and eliminate all potential troubles? But the person is now with the Saviors. Do you really think I have the power to kill someone who's with the Saviors?”
