At Natalie's insistence, Shane had no choice but to relent. Nonetheless, he was inwardly planning to instruct the

housekeeper in the villa to stick to her side and take care of her meticulously in the following half a month.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to rest easy.

In no time, an hour flew past. The nurse then informed Natalie that she could enter the operating theater.

Despite having braced herself mentally, a tidal wave of reluctance washed over Natalie when she truly had to step

into the operating theater and abort the baby.

She was even gripped by the urge to take off and go back on her decision.

No, I can't do that. I can't keep this baby.

At that thought, she inhaled deeply and steeled her resolve. After a final look at Shane, she followed the nurse into

the operating theater.

Subsequently, the nurse instructed her to lie down on the operating table and prepare for anesthesia.

Natalie stared at the cold operating table for a long while. Digging her nails into her palms, she forced herself to lie

down on it.

The nurse then started administering the anesthesia while the doctor laid out the tools for the operation at the side.

“Please relax, Ms. Smith. Your body is too tense that I can't get the needle in,” the nurse urged as she squeezed

Natalie's stiff arm.

Natalie forced a smile. “Sorry, I'm too nervous. I'll try my best to relax.”

As she said that, she regulated her breathing and calmed her pounding heart.

Two minutes later, her body finally relaxed.

Sensing that the muscles in her arm were no longer as stiff, the nurse jabbed the needle in.

Shortly after, Natalie felt dizzy and weak.

Right away, she knew that the anesthetic had started taking effect.

Just when her mind had gone fuzzy, and she was on the brink of losing consciousness, she abruptly heard the

doctor and nurse conversing.

“How strange that the gentleman outside is actually Ms. Smith's husband. So, who exactly is Mr. Sean Thompson?”

“Who cares? Since we accepted his money, we've got to do as he instructed. We must abort Ms. Smith's baby, or

we won't be able to answer to him. Go and check how's the anesthesia working.”

“Got it.”

Murmuring an acknowledgment, the nurse stepped forward and checked on Natalie. If she were entirely under,

then they would begin the operation.

But when the nurse reached out to check, Natalie's eyes sprang open all of a sudden.

The nurse jumped in fright. “Ms. Smith, you're still awake?”

Dear Lord, she actually hasn't lost consciousness and can still open her eyes? She must be exceedingly determined!

“Did you two just say that you took Sean's money and colluded with him to abort my baby?” Natalie demanded, her

fury evident though her voice was weak.

Having not expected the person in question to have overheard their conversation, both the doctor and nurse were

instantly mortified.

“Uh... Ms. Smith, actually, we...”

“From your guilty expressions, I can tell that it's the truth. You probably lied about my baby being deformed as well

so that I'll consent to the abortion, didn't you? You're both medical practitioners, yet you actually accepted a bribe

to harm a patient! You're simply heartless!” Natalie struggled to sit up by propping her hands against the operating

table below her.

Upon seeing that, the doctor's expression turned frantic. “Shit! She's trying to escape! Quick, restrain her and give

her another dose of anesthetic!”

At that, the nurse hesitated. “But there's a limit for anesthesia. If I were to give her another dose, it'd exceed the

limit and might likely cause sequela.”

“So what? We've lost our medical ethics from the very moment we accepted the money. It would've been fine if she

hadn't overheard us, for we naturally would've performed the operation according to the procedure. But she has

overheard us and even wants to make a run for it now. We'll be ruined if that happens, so we definitely can't

waver!” the doctor asserted while staring at Natalie with cold eyes.

Every single utterance out of his mouth struck terror into Natalie, and a chill encased her.

Swayed by the doctor's words, the nurse gritted her teeth and picked up the anesthetic once more. Glancing at

Natalie, she mumbled, “I'm sorry, Ms. Smith. Please don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, just settle the

score with Mr. Sean Thompson.”

After saying that, the nurse made to jab Natalie with the needle.

Natalie's pupils constricted as stark panic assailed her.

No, I can't allow myself to be anesthetized again!
