Chapter 205
I Cannot Do This
This family was full of deception and
chemes. They were impossible to guard against.
Julia neither confirmed nor denied it. “Are you getting out of the car or not?”

“I will never let you hurt my child!” Caroline’s gaze was resolute, “Julia, take me back now or let me go, and I’ll pretend none of this ever happened.”
Julia had no patience for pointless arguments. “You refuse the easy way and insist on the hard way.”
With a sharp clack, the car door swung open. Julia stepped out first and gave a casual command. “Bring her in.”
“Yes, Ms. Julia.”
The two bodyguards effortlessly dragged Caroline out of the car and escorted her into the hospital.
Julia walked straight toward the operating room.
Doctors and nurses were already waiting by the door.
“Are you Ms. Julia?”
“Yes.” Julia nodded. “I’ve brought her. She’s in your hands now. Be careful, don’t hurt her, just get rid of the baby.”
“Understood.”
The doctor pushed open the door to the operating room.
Inside, there was only a single bed, a dim overhead lamp, and a few surgical knives resting on a metal tray
Everything was so crude.
C
It was doubtful whether the place had even been properly sterilized.
The floor was littered with dirty footprints, years of grime caked into the corners. Rust stained the doorframe.
Forget the abortion, Caroline was terrified that just stepping into this room might leave her with lasting health issues.
Or worse, if something went wrong, she might never be able to conceive again.
The bodyguards forced her forward.
Julia stood to the side, arms crossed, silently watching.
“Wait!” Caroline’s voice suddenly rang out, sharp and commanding. “Do you even know who I am?”
She locked
eyes with the doctor, her gaze piercing, exuding every ounce of authority she had.

“Who she is doesn’t concern you,” Julia said coldly. “Just do as I say. If anything happens, I’ll take full responsibility.”
Caroline let out a scornful laugh. “You? Take responsibility? Do you really think the Woods family can stand against the Ellison family?”
“The Ellison family?” The nurse whispered, startled. “Aren’t they one of the most powerful families? What’s her connection to them?”
Caroline seized the moment. “Of course I’m connected I am Mrs. Ellison, David Ellison’s newlywed wife!”
Now was the time to play her trump card.
Whether it worked or not, she had to try.
As long as there was a chance, she couldn’t afford to back down.
The doctor and nurse both instinctively took a step back.
“Mrs. Ellison? Then, this surgery absolutely cannot happen.”
“Ms. Julia, I can’t afford to offend her.”
Caroline saw their hesitation and felt the first spark of hope.
This was working.
She cleared her throat and pressed on. “Julia is reckless, and you’re willing to follow her blindly? She claims she’ll take responsibility, do you really believe that? If something goes wrong, it won’t be her suffering the consequences. It’ll be you, people with no protection, no powerful background. Think about it, she kidnapped me and brought me here. This is illegal. This is a crime. Forget the police, if the Ellison family decides to take action, none of you will get away unscathed. The smartest thing you can do is walk away now. Step back while you still can.”
The doctor and nurse exchanged uneasy glances, visibly shaken.
“Ms. Julia…” the doctor stammered. “I… I can’t do this. I’m calling off the procedure. I’ll return the
money…”
Julia’s expression darkened. Her jaw clenched. “What do you mean by returning the money? Just do it. Perform the surgery. Now!”
