If Caroline had wanted Julia to relay a message, she would have said so clearly on the phone earlier.
There was no need to come to this room at the end of the hallway to meet Julia.
Seeing Caroline hesitate, Julia sneered. âWhatâs wrong? Is there some secret between you and Nash that Iâm not supposed to know? If you donât want to say, fine. You donât seem all that urgent, and it doesnât look like itâs that important. So weâll just waitâ¦â
âIt canât wait!â Caroline interrupted. âMs. Julia, I just need to make a phone call to Nash!â
If she didnât act quickly, David would soon meet Nash
And by then, it would be too late for anything.
Julia remained unfazed. âBut what difference will calling Nash make? Whatâs it going to change? What can it stop?â
Caroline froze, caught off guard by Juliaâs words.
Right, I tell Nash that David knows about the baby and is going after him, then what? What else can I do? Thereâs nothing left but to warn him, and thatâs it.
Caroline suddenly felt drained, her face pale and weary
She felt utterly helpless.
âLetâs go and meet Nash, Julia said. âWe canât sort this out over the phone.â
I⦠I canât leave the Ellison residence.â
Julia was right. A phone call wouldnât solve anything.
The only chance was to go there herself, maybe she could stop things from escalating.
âIâll help you.â Julia pulled a collapsible ladder from somewhere and set it up against the wall. âDo you to come down?â
The second floor was about 16 to 20 feet up, and Caroline hesitated, still nervous about the height
The ladder had reached the window.

Julia watched her. âIf you dare to climb down, Iâll take you to Nash. If not, then thereâs nothing more to discuss. Caroline, youâd better hurry up. If security notices somethingâs wrong and comes for, us, weâll both be caught.â
Caroline stared at the ladder, torn. She was desperate to stop David and Nash from meeting, but she hadnât even considered why Julia was being so helpful, so eager to help her escape the Ellison residence
and meet Nash.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Caroline replied, âOkay, Iâll come down.â
Seeing her relent, Julia sighed in relief and pretended to be considerate, moving to the base of the ladder.

wonât forgive me either:â
Caroline glanced down at the ground, 20 feet below, and silently told herself to keep going.
Forget the risks This is the only chance to escape the Ellison residence!

Caroline slowly climbed out the window, each step taken carefully. She gripped the windowsill tightly. making sure each step was firmly placed before letting go of one hand,
She was being reckless. This was dangerous.
And she was pregnant, too.
Step by step. Caroline moved cautiously, her heart pounding loudly in her ears. Sweat trickled down her palms, and beads of perspiration dotted her forehead.
Watching het. Julia couldnât help but sneer inside.
Is she afraid of hurting the child sheâs carrying, which is why heâs being so cautious with her life? Too bad, Caroline, your baby will never see this world.
At last, Carolineâs feet touched the soft ground, and she released a breath she hadnât realized she was holding.
âLetâs go.â She wiped the sweat from her brow. âWeâre running out of time.â
Julia gave her a brief glance before turning and leading the way.
