Caroline instinctively moved backward. She’d tried to use her position as Mrs. Ellison to intimidate them, hoping the weight of the Ellison family name might scare them off.
But these men weren’t fazed–they had planned this carefully.
The truth was clear–they had come for her, and this was premeditated!
Her mind raced. Who could be behind this? Who could have a reason to target her?
Only two people came to mind.
David? No, he wouldn’t do this. That left Elizabeth. But why would Elizabeth go this far?
Taking a deep breath, Caroline said, “You know my identity and still dare to do this? Aren’t you worried David will hunt you down and make you pay?”
“We’ve got backing. We’re not afraid,” Jason sneered, his gaze lingering on her. “Mrs. Ellison, so refined and delicate…”
“Think we should have a little fun?” Sam suggested, grinning.
“Maybe, but business comes first,” Jason agreed but then paused. “Though, honestly, who’d be in the mood after making such a mess?”
“True. Let’s enjoy ourselves first, then,” Sam said, both men laughing sinisterly.
Caroline felt her heart pounding. “What are you planning to do?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady.
Jason smirked. “There’s $700,000 on the table for your unborn child. If you cooperate, we’ll make it less painful.”
Caroline’s lips trembled as she turned pale.
It all made sense now–Elizabeth must have learned about her pregnancy and orchestrated this. The bird’s nest, the breakfast, and now this kidnapping were all part of a plan to make her lose the baby.
But why? The child wasn’t David’s. Why was Elizabeth so desperate? Could it be that the Brooks family had known all along that Nash was the wealthy man from that night and were determined to prevent her from having the Newton family’s heir, fearing she might secure a higher status and a life of comfort through Nash’s favor?
Before she could process her thoughts further, Jason took a step towards her.

“Wait!” Caroline said quickly. “You said 700,000 dollars, right?”
“That’s right,” Jason confirmed.
“I’ll pay 1,400,000 dollars,” Caroline said without hesitation. “Let me go.”

She needed to buy time. Someone would notice her absence soon. Mr. Boris would realize she hadn’t shown up to the meeting and raise an alarm.
Even if David disliked her, he wouldn’t let this slide. He had the power and resources to track her down.
Caroline’s goal was simple–wait for rescue.
She adopted a confident tone. “The Ellison family is wealthy beyond imagination. 1,400,000 dollars is nothing to us. If that’s not enough, name your price. How much do you want to release me?”
Jason hesitated, clearly torn.
“7,000,000 dollars?” Caroline offered, raising the stakes.
Jason glanced at Sam, both clearly tempted by the sum.
This price was ten times the original amount!
Caroline sensed their hesitation and added, “Set me free, and you’ll get 7,000,000 dollars immediately. I won’t come after you; my revenge will be directed at the person behind this. Think it over.”
In reality, Caroline had no money.
