Chapter 387 Yvonne Realizes the Truth
The doors opened to reveal a group of five or six people dressed in white coats. All of them wore face masks and carried doctor’s bags.
“Hello, are you Zac?” the middle-aged female doctor in the lead greeted Zac politely. “The hospital director arranged for us to meet you here.”
Zac must have called the hospital director to arrange for this team of doctors to come over. “Come in.”
Zac’s expression was grim as he led the group straight into the bedroom. When they entered the room, they saw a woman whose limbs had been tied to all four corners of the bed. She could not move at all.
“Get rid of the child in her womb,” Zac instructed coldly. By now, Yvonne had given up on putting up a fight. She lay motionless in bed and stared at the ceiling in defeat.
“Sir, this sort of procedure needs to be done at the hospital, or else we would be endangering the patient’s life,” the female doctor in the lead stated plainly out of duty to her patient.
“She won’t die. It’s just an abortion.” Zac waved his hand in frustration. “Just give her some medication then. I just want the baby gone.”
The doctors glanced at one another as if they were silently discussing their options. Meanwhile, Yvonne moved her gaze off the ceiling and glanced at the doctors in the room.
They were supposed to be angels who saved lives, but in Yvonne’s eyes, they were more like executioners right now. Hang on…
Suddenly, Yvonne’s eyes lit up. She found the female doctor standing at the back somewhat familiar. The doctor was wearing glasses, but her body frame and that pair of eyes were very similar to… Veronica.
Wait a minute, that’s Veronica! While Yvonne was staring at Veronica, Veronica was also staring back at her. Their eyes met, and Veronica’s brows lifted slightly to signal that it was really her.
Yvonne got the message and immediately shouted to Zac, “Zac, are you sure you’re just trying to get rid of my baby? It looks like you’re trying to kill me instead. Go ahead and kill me then, if you dare!”
Her head was turned toward him, and she glared at Zac with her bloodshot eyes as she bit down hard on her lip. It was impossible to not detect the fury in her words.
“Sir, she’s already over three months pregnant, so we can’t abort the baby with medication. We’ll have to do a proper abortion procedure, and without the necessary equipment, we won’t be able to completely clear out her womb. There will be lingering health issues, and the worst case scenario is that she might never be able to get pregnant again.”
“Yeah. We don’t know how serious it might be.”
“Sir, I’m sorry, but we won’t be able to help you if you insist on having the procedure done here.” All the doctors began to protest.
Zac finally accepted that it was a serious situation, so in the end, he had to let Yvonne out of her restraints. He summoned two bodyguards over and had them carry Yvonne out of the bedroom and down to the car.
Before they reached the lobby, Zac stuffed Yvonne’s mouth with a piece of cloth before taping it shut and covering it up with a face mask.
He wanted to prevent her from shouting. However, Yvonne was not going to try and escape now.
She complied rather peacefully as the bodyguards lifted her into the ambulance. A few of the medical team sat up front, while a few sat in the back with the patient. Veronica was one of the latter.
Yvonne glared at the bodyguards and huffed. “There are too many people. One is enough.” The two bodyguards glanced at each other in hesitation. Yvonne immediately shouted at them. “Why are you still here? Hurry up and get out!”
One of them jumped off at once. While jumping off, the bodyguard side-eyed his colleague to remind him not to let Yvonne escape.
The bodyguard went over to join the car that followed behind the ambulance. Once the ambulance doors closed, Yvonne rapped on the divider and demanded, “Hurry up and go.”
The ambulance slowly started moving. Since it had the sirens on, it was able to speed right through the streets. The remaining bodyguard glanced warily at Yvonne, but seeing how she was sitting there obediently with her hands tied up, he let his guard down and began to scroll on his phone. “Hey there, handsome.”
Veronica moved over and sat in front of the bodyguard before whistling at him. He looked up, and all he saw was a dark figure flying toward him. There was a loud thud, and before he could even react, he fell onto the ambulance floor.
Veronica put her weapon down before looking at Yvonne with an unpleasant expression on her face. “Mmmmmm…”
Yvonne shifted about in her seat and struggled against her restraints as her way of asking Veronica to release her.
“So you’re begging me to help you now, huh? Since your beloved Conrad loves you so much, you should go and ask for his help instead,” Veronica scoffed while untying the ropes that bound Yvonne’s wrists. She used it to restrain the bodyguard instead.
She tied his arms and legs up and stuffed his mouth as well. Yvonne took her phone out to give Conrad a call. “What’s the point of calling him now?” Veronica barked as she dragged Yvonne over by the arm to take a seat beside her.
“I told you a thousand times that you can’t trust Conrad. Do you think he’s not picking up his phone because he’s busy? Fine, he could’ve been busy for a little while, but would he be busy this whole time?”
Veronica tried to knock some sense into Yvonne, but she also took her phone out. She tapped rapidly against the screen, and soon enough, a video feed popped up.
“Isn’t… isn’t that Conrad? What did you do? Did you hack into Southcon Enterprise’s security system?” Yvonne gasped in disbelief.
The video feed showed Conrad organizing some documents. His secretary came over to give him a cup of coffee, and he set the documents aside before looking up at her and beckoning her over with his finger.
In the blink of an eye, the secretary ended up sitting on Conrad’s thigh.
Veronica was speechless. She only wanted to prove to Yvonne that Conrad did not care enough about her to answer her calls, but she never expected to be greeted with this scene instead.
“What… what… what’s going on?”
Yvonne turned pale as her tears began to stream down her face like a broken string of pearls.
“What’s the point of crying? Hurry up and give Conrad a call. Let’s see how he reacts.”
Veronica wanted Yvonne to call him now to prove that it was a live video feed.
For all she knew, this foolish woman might assume that this video was just a recording from the past.
Yvonne took a deep breath and tried to wipe her tears away, but she continued to sob as she gave Conrad a call.
Once the call went through, Yvonne fixed her eyes on Veronica’s phone. Through the video feed, both women could see that Conrad’s phone had lit up on his desk, and they could vaguely tell that it was an incoming call notification.
Conrad picked his phone up and glanced at the screen before putting it back down.
Then, he began to fondle the woman in his embrace with one hand while cupping her nape with the other and pulling her in for a kiss.
All at once, things became a little hot and heavy in the office.
“Greetings. The person you have called is currently unavailable. Please try again later.” The call had not been picked up, so the robotic sound of the automated message rang out, and at the same time, Conrad’s phone vibrated a little.
The screen turned colorful again, so it was obvious that the call was dropped.
Realization finally hit Yvonne.
