Nancy ca from a family that practiced dicine. She knew how to take care of pregnant won and also how to get rid of
a pregnancy.
However, due to moral considerations, she had never done such a cruel thing.
But if it could help Joanna and Ace get back together, she would do it even if she would go to hell for it!
"Miss Alice, are you sure? If you really don’t want this baby, I can make a dicine for you to get rid of it without any pain. It won’t have any impact on your fertility either."
Nancy confird with Alice again.
She would only do it if Alice truly wanted to abort the baby.
She would not force Alice. After all, only a mother could decide the life and death of a baby. Others could only contribute their opinion at most.
"I’m sure!"
Alice nodded earnestly and said. "I wish my child can be born into a loving family. I wish that his father not only loves him, but also loves his mother. Otherwise, there’s no happiness to speak of. Obviously, this child ca at a bad ti. It’s for the best!"
"Miss Alice, you’re a very reasonable person. You have great wisdom."
Alice’s answer eased any ntal burden Nancy had.
She thought Alice was actually not as wicked as Joanna said. She’s pretty reasonable.
As expected of a woman that Ace chose. She could not be that bad.
"Please wait for a mont, Miss Alice. I’ll go make the dicine right now."
After that, Nancy went to a nearby traditional dicine pharmacy to prepare the abortion dication for Alice.
Before long, Nancy was back in the ward. She had brought the dicine in a thermos. She handed it to Alice.
"Miss Alice, here’s the dicine. Don’t worry, it’s safe to drink. Your stomach may hurt slightly, but it won’t be too bad. You only have to go to the bathroom once and problem solved."
Nancy consoled Alice.
Her family had superb dical knowledge. She could guarantee the dicine’s safety with confidence
Alice looked at the thermos but did not take it. Instead, she suddenly raised her voice and asked, "If I drink it as you say, you promise Joanna will drop the charges and let go?"
Nancy was slightly taken aback. She could not understand why Alice was suddenly talking so loudly, but she patiently said." Don’t worry, Miss Alice. I believe you’re not a bad person. You only beca a howrecker due to a mont of confusion. Jealousy made you do irrational things. You’re not so bad that you deserve to go to jail. As long as Mr. Moran and Miss Joan get back together, I’m sure Miss Joan won’t pursue the matter."
Alice nodded and gave the clock on the wall a casual glance. Seeing that the ti was almost right, she said to Nancy, "I’m scared. Can you feed ?"
"Of course."
Nancy understood Alice’s despair as a mother who was about to kill her own child.
She unscrewed the lid of the thermos and got a bit closer to Alice while telling her, "Don’t be scared. The dicine’s not bitter.
Drink it with your eyes closed. You’ll be free of your pain and dilemma."
However, Alice’s expression suddenly did a 180. She looked frightened and shrunk back, screaming, "Nancy, stop! Don’t hurt
my baby!"
"Take the dicine away, I beg you! I’ll never drink it..."
Nancy was confused. She walked forward and said. "What do you an, Miss Alice? Did your nerves get the better of you? I can feed you. I..."
"Go away! Help! Help! This woman is trying to kill my baby!"
After that, Alice sprinted past Nancy towards the tall figure standing outside the door.
"Save , Ace! Joanna sent her! She wants to force the abortion dicine down my throat!"
Nancy turned around and found Ace standing at the door of the ward, staring at her coldly.
"Mr. Moran. I..."
She intended to explain herself, but the abortion dicine in her hand was still steaming hot. She could not imdiately think of a good explanation..
Alice hid behind Ace, acting like a weak, helpless woman. She cried and said, "Nancy, I told you, I know I’ve done sothing wrong, so I promise I’ll leave Ace, but the baby is innocent..."
"The baby is my life! I won’t let anyone hurt it! Please go back and tell Miss Pierce that if she has any grudge against . she can take it out on , but don’t hurt my baby!"
Alice’s words made Nancy flush with anger. She said emotionally, "What’s the aning of this, Miss Alice? That’s not what you said just now. Aborting the baby was your idea too. Why are you pretending to be the victim now? You’re blatantly lying!"
"The one who’s blatantly lying is you! I love my baby so much, how could I bear to abort it? You were threatening , saying that if I don’t abort the baby like you said, Miss Pierce will make go to jail. I refused to take the dicine, so you tried to force it down my throat! The police officers outside and Ace saw it!"
"You... you..."
Nancy had never seen a better actor than Alice. She was so angry that she felt like she was getting a heart attack.
She now knew that Joanna was not exaggerating at all. Alice Alice really was evil down to the core!
She quickly told Ace, "Mr. Moran, please don’t listen to Miss Alice’s nonsense. That was not what happened at all. I did not say those things, I..."
"Shut up!"
Ace’s perfect face was icy. He glared at Nancy with extrely oppressive eyes and asked, "Was it Joanna’s idea?"
"No, I ca here on my own. Miss Joan knows nothing. She doesn’t even know that I ca here. Mr. Moran, please don’t misunderstand Miss Joan, she..."
"So it was your idea?"
Ace’s eyes beca even colder, carrying a dangerous intent. He asked sharply. "In other words, is it true that you tried to get rid of a Moran child? That part isn’t a lie?"
"That’s..."
Nancy gulped. She did not know how to deny that.
The purpose of her visit to today was to persuade Alice to get an abortion. Alice was not lying about Nancy’s motive.
"I did ask Miss Alice to get an abortion, but..."
"I’ve heard enough."
Ace turned to the police officers next to him and said, "You heard that. She made a deliberate attempt to harm a child of the Moran family. She has the motive, and we have eyewitnesses and evidence. I don’t have to tell you what to do, do I?"
The two police officers were very respectful towards Ace. They imdiately handcuffed Nancy and told her seriously. expression, "You voluntarily tried to hurt soone. This is a criminal offense. You’re now under arrest. Please follow us back to the police station."
"Criminal offense?"
Nancy looked down at the cold handcuffs, confused.
She did not expect things to turn out this way. She had only wanted to persuade Alice to give up. How did it co to this?
"No, no, Mr. Moran, this is a misunderstanding. I didn’t try to hurt anyone. I only tried to persuade Miss Alice to get an abortion so that she can seek her own happiness again!"
"I can see that you and Miss Joan still have feelings for each other. You only got a divorce because of a howrecker’s intervention. Your marriage can still be saved. I..."
"Take her away!"
Ace said with a frown. He had no interest in hearing what Nancy had to say.
Nancy’s passionate plea gradually turned into disappointnt. She laughed bitterly and said. "Now I know why Miss Joan is so adamant to divorce you even though she’s under great pressure. Soone like you doesn’t deserve her love!"
After Nancy was taken away, Alice smiled triumphantly.
She grabbed Ace’s hand and whimpered, "Ace, thank god you got here in ti. If you had arrived even a bit later, the baby would have been in danger. I can’t believe Miss Pierce’s desire for revenge is so strong that she actually tries to harm the
innocent baby. She..."
"You can stop acting now."
Ace said coldly, "I know what happened. Your pretentiousness is starting to disgust ."
Although he had only t Nancy once before, he knew very well that Nancy could never have done such a cruel thing.
"What do you an, Ace?"
Alice’s face was stiff.
So Ace knew that Nancy was innocent, but he had her arrested anyway? Why? Ace saw the question in Alice’s eyes and asked coldly, "You want to know why?"
