Chapter 6 Miss Reed, You Can't Abort This Child!

Rose knew very well that if she wanted to leave this place, she had to think of something else. There was no point in talking to this man anymore.

Thus, she compromised and went with the shop assistant to try on the wedding gowns.

Inside the dressing room...

With the help of the assistant, Rose changed into a white wedding gown. It was an off-shoulder design with a beautifully embroidered rose at her waist, adorned with delicate gems.

Rose wasn't very tall, but she wasn't short either-around 1.68 meters. She had an oval face with big black eyes, and her lips were naturally red and thin. She was undeniably beautiful, though she didn't care much for dressing up.

Now, standing there in the white wedding gown, the dress perfectly hugged her body and highlighted her figure. Her smooth, white shoulders and slender neck were exposed, and her black hair cascaded down her back in soft waves.

The shop assistant looked at her and couldn't help but exclaim, "Madam, you look stunning in this gown. It's as if this dress was made just for you!"

At first, the shop assistant thought Rose was not very beautiful, but seeing her like this changed her mind completely.

"Thank you," Rose replied politely.

However, her mind was elsewhere. Her primary goal was to escape this place. She turned to the shop assistant and said, "Could you help me get some juice? I'm feeling a little thirsty."

The shop assistant nodded and left the room.

As soon as the assistant was gone, Rose looked around and opened the door slightly. She peeked outside and saw Kevin standing not far away, talking on the phone. His back was turned to her.

'This is your chance, Rose. You have to do it!' she thought, psyching herself up.

She didn't have the time to change back into her clothes. Gathering the hem of her dress in one hand and her shoes in the other, she tiptoed out of the dressing room.

She carefully crept towards the exit, her heart pounding with every step. She was afraid that this man would find out...

When she managed to slip past Kevin unnoticed, she bolted for the door.

Outside, she flagged down a taxi and got in. As the car sped away, she glanced back at the shop and muttered, "Goodbye, Mr. Arrogant!"

Meanwhile, back at the shop...

Kevin finished his phone call and saw the shop assistant returning.

"How much longer will it take?" he asked.

"Sir, Madam has already changed. She just asked me to get her some juice," the assistant replied.

Kevin nodded, but something didn't sit right with him. He walked over to the dressing room and knocked on the door.

Knock! Knock!

There was no response.

Without waiting, Kevin opened the door, and when he saw the empty room, his face turned ice-cold.

The assistant, standing behind him, felt the chill radiating from him...

She was so scared by his aura that her legs started to tremble...

"Where is she?" Kevin asked, his voice low but laced with menace.

"I... She told me to get her juice... I..." The assistant stammered, unable to complete her sentence.

Kevin didn't waste another second. He pulled out his phone and made a call.

"Find her. Immediately," he ordered the person on the other end.

As he hung up, his eyes darkened with fury. 'Does she think I'm joking with her?' he thought grimly.

At the hospital...

After escaping the shop, Rose went straight to the hospital. She was still wearing the wedding gown, which caught the attention of everyone she passed. People stared at her curiously, but Rose couldn't care less.

She had come to terminate the pregnancy.

'That man must have been bluffing to scare me,' she reasoned. 'After all, this is a lawful society. What can he possibly do to me? Once the child is gone, he'll give up.'

She wasn't being cruel-just practical.

At the reception desk, she made an appointment for the procedure. The receptionist gave her a strange look but didn't comment, simply handing her a form to fill out.

After completing the form, Rose returned it to the receptionist, who checked it and said,

"Please wait for a moment. We'll inform you when everything is ready."

Rose nodded and sat down on a bench. She waited for about half an hour before a nurse came to ask her to change her clothes and guide her to the operating room.

In the operating room, as she lay waiting, the doctor suddenly entered and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Reed, but you can't abort this child."

Rose sat up in shock. "What? Why not?"

"Because I don't want you to abort my child."

Before the doctor could respond, a cold, low voice echoed from the door.

Rose's blood froze. She turned to see Kevin standing there, his face as unreadable as ever. She had deliberately chosen a hospital far from the city center, yet she didn't expect to be found so quickly by this horrible man...

Who on earth was this man?

"You're REALLY not a good girl," The man said as he walked closer. His tone was calm but carried an undeniable threat.

He leaned closer, his breath brushing against her cheek as he whispered coldly, "Bad girls must be punished."

Punished? What was he going to do to her?!
