Chapter 206 He Will Be Grateful to Me
âNo, the moneyâ¦â
âWhatâs there to be afraid of?â Julia scoffed. âDid she rattle you with just a few words?â
The doctor hesitantly asked, âMs. Julia, is she really Mrs Ellison?â
âYes.â
To everyoneâs surprise, Julia admitted it outright.
She didnât even try to hide it. She was dealing with Caroline openly and directly.
Even Caroline was taken aback, having expected her to deny it.

âWell.â Julia crossed her arms and stepped closer to Caroline. âMrs. Ellison, huh? So now you know how to use your status to pressure others. Now you remember to emphasize your title? But tell me, when you were in bed with Nash, did it ever cross your mind that you were a married woman?â
âI didnâtâ¦â
âWhat do you mean you didnât? You didnât sleep with Nash? Then how did you end up pregnant? Did the child just fall into your womb out of thin air?â
Caroline stared at Julia, so many words on the tip of her tongue, yet she didnât know where to start.
Because the truth was far too complicated.
Julia turned to the doctor. âYouâre afraid of her status, arenât you? Fine. Then listen carefully to what Iâm about to say to her. Once Iâm done, you will proceed with the surgery immediately. No more stalling.â
This place was remote, and barely anyone knew about it. Even if Nash rushed over from the city, the fastest drive would take more than an hour. But the longer this dragged on, the greater the chance Caroline would escape.
Elizabeth had warned her. Caroline was cunning, deceitful, and had escaped from her hands multiple times before.
Now, it was obvious she was stalling for time, trying to come up with a plan.
But no matter how impatient Julia was, she couldnât forge the doctorâs hand if he refused.
âWhat do you want to say to me?â Caroline asked. âDo you think you can strip me of my title as Mrs. Ellison with just a few words?â
âOf course not, Mrs. Ellison,â Julia said with a smirk. âBut as Mrs. Ellison, youâre carrying another manâs child. Tell me, how do you think Mr. Ellison would feels about that?â
She raised a hand, letting her fingernail graze lightly against Carolineâs cheek.
âI donât know what tricks you used to keep this child while living under Mr. Ellisonâs roof, but one thing is certain, he must be the person who wants you to miscarry the most. His thoughts align perfectly with
mine.

âSo if I succeed today, donât you think heâll be grateful to me rather than blame me? Iâm doing him a huge favor. What he couldnât bring himself to do, Iâm doing for him. He gets to sit back and enjoy the results without lifting a finger.
âAfter all, Mr. Ellison is a man of status. He wouldnât dirty his hands with something so bloody. But if he had someone else handle it for him, the scandal would spread like wildfire.
âThatâs why I have no hesitation in bringing you to this hospital for an abortion. Because I know I have every reason to be confident. Iâm not stupid enough to go against Mr. Ellison.â
Caroline bit her lip so hard it nearly bled, her body trembling slightly.

She fought to control herself, unwilling to let Julia see the fear creeping into her heart.
But Juliaâs every word hit the mark.
She was right.
If she lost the child, David would only be relieved. He would celebrate, not retaliate.
Everything she had just said to the doctor had been nothing more than a bluff.
And Julia had exposed it all.
âTell me, Caroline,â Julia said, her tone taunting. âHow would you feel if Mr. Ellison ended up thanking me for this? You had so much to say just a moment ago. What happened? Lost your voice?â
