“Don’t run! Catch her!” The footsteps behind Stephanie grew louder, accompanied by a rough, raspy voice. Frightened, her face turned pale as she desperately ran toward the elevator.
“Ah, let me go!” Stephanie kept pressing the elevator button frantically. She was about to rush in just as the elevator doors opened when a tall man with a fierce expression on his face came charging at her down the stairs before pinning her down.

“Mr. Wellington said you have no right to bear his child!” A man in a white coat hurried over and shouted impatiently to two other men, “Hurry up and do it!”

The nurses found it odd, but the three men had already pushed the large white bin into the elevator.
“I’ve never seen these doctors before. Which department are they from?”
“Forget it, our hospital is so large and we often have interns coming in…” Another nurse remarked without giving it much thought as she watched the elevator doors shut slowly.
After the elevator doors closed, it quickly descended to the underground parking garage on the basement level.
Stephanie was thrown into a large bin filled with dirty bed sheets, the lid pressing down tightly on her. She struggled to breathe and she began to lose consciousness as her brain was slowly deprived of oxygen.
She wondered in despair, ‘Why is Dominick so cruel? Why won’t he hear me out…
As Stephanie felt increasingly hopeless and despondent, her mind grew fuzzier. Just before she passed out, she faintly heard a
