Chapter 299: Who Dares Harm the Johnson Family’s Granddaughter-in-Law and Great-Grandchild!

"What did you say? Evelyn Is Evelynnt with our Johnson family's child? And she's been kidnapped? Someone's trying to harm my great-grandchild?"

The flood of information hit all at once. Gabriel's emotions swung wildly between shock and joy as he paced back and forth across the living room of the Johnson Mansion, gripping his phone with both hands.

"This is huge. Call Michael first."

"Gabriel, Michael's phone won't go through at all. You need to send people to rescue Evelyn right now, or I'm afraid it'll be too late." Isadora's voice was frantic.

Gabriel exploded with a string of curses:

"That bastard! Once I get Evelyn and my great-grandchild back safe, I'll deal with him!"

In the operating room.

Watching as the child in her belly was about to be aborted, Evelyn's face turned ice-cold. She raised her voice sharply:

"Do you know who I am? I'm Evelyn, and I'm also Dr. S—the renowned physician the entire Harmony City medical community has been talking about recently. Are you really sure you want to remove the child from my body?"

"You're all in medicine. You should know perfectly well that in this field, the more skilled you are, the more complex cases you encounter. The more difficult surgeries you perform, the more refined your technique becomes. Can you guarantee you'll never need me to operate on you? Ever?"

"Even if you can guarantee that for yourselves, what about your families? Your supervisors? Your children? And even if everyone around you never needs me, once word gets out that you forcibly aborted my child, do you think you'll still have a place in the medical community? Will any hospital hire you?"

"Have you thought through all these consequences? I'm not just anyone. I'm a doctor—a doctor renowned throughout the global medical community. Force me to lose this child, and doctors worldwide will know what you've done."

One of the doctors paused mid-motion.

The other doctor grew visibly agitated:

"Even if we can't work in Harmony City hospitals anymore, we can change our names and work abroad. Even if foreign hospitals won't take us either, we still have to remove this child now. Mr. Johnson gave us a direct order. If this child is still alive by nightfall, Mr. Johnson won't spare us."

Hearing the doctors repeat "Mr. Johnson" over and over, Evelyn's eyes reddened with hatred, her nails digging deep into her palms:

Michael, this is how you treat me? This is how you treat my child!

I hate you!

I hate you so much.

"Hurry up, or we'll run out of time."

The two doctors prepared to continue the abortion procedure.

Just then, the operating room door was kicked open from outside. Black-suited bodyguards stepped aside, revealing Gabriel's stern face:

"I'd like to see who dares harm my grandson's wife and my great-grandchild!"

Evelyn, who had been holding back tears this whole time, broke down the moment she heard Gabriel's words. "Grandpa..."

Gabriel strode into the operating room. Seeing Evelyn's pale complexion, her gaunt cheeks, the tears streaming endlessly from her eyes—his heart twisted with pain.

He grabbed Evelyn's hand. "Evelyn, I'm so sorry. It's my fault for not taking better care of you recently. I let you suffer."

"No, Grandpa, I..."

Evelyn tried to say more, but the next second she lost consciousness.

"Doctor! Where's the doctor? Get over here and check what's wrong with Evelyn! And what the hell are these restraints on her? Get them off immediately! Anyone who tried to hurt Evelyn—I won't let a single one of them off!"

Evelyn was transferred at top speed to the best hospital in Harmony City, into the most luxurious private room.

Gabriel sat by the bed, watching Evelyn still unconscious, his expression dark and stormy.

Chase entered the room, glanced at Evelyn, then bowed his head before Gabriel.

Gabriel suppressed his fury. "Why are you here? Where's Michael?"

Isadora walked in just then. Seeing the scene, her anger flared. "Don't tell me that bastard Michael is off with that homewrecker Elysia? Evelyn was suddenly kidnapped, nearly forced to abort her child, and Michael—the child's own father—is nowhere to be found? Isn't that too much?"

Gabriel's expression darkened further. "Where exactly is Michael?"

Chase replied, "Mr. Gabriel Johnson. Mr. Michael Johnson is... Elysia suddenly had heart discomfort. Mr. Michael Johnson is with her. And... he's in this very hospital."

"At a time like this, instead of being with Evelyn—who's carrying his child—he's with the mistress who wrecked his family? I want to see exactly how he's 'keeping her company'!"

Gabriel stood and strode out.

In another wing's luxury suite.

Elysia leaned against Michael's shoulder, acting coy:

"Michael, will you stay with me tonight? I'm so scared being alone in the hospital."

Just then, Scarlett pushed the door open and exchanged a glance with Elysia.

Given the timing, the child in Evelyn's belly should have been forcibly removed by now.

Michael frowned, clearly reluctant.

Scarlett chimed in from the side. "Michael, Elysia really misses you. Just stay and spend more time with her."

Michael still felt uneasy. He stood up. "Your mother's here now. With her keeping you company, you don't need to be afraid. I still have work at the office. I'm leaving."

"Michael—" Elysia reached out to grab him.

"You bastard! Get out here!"

At that moment, Gabriel's furious roar erupted from outside.

He kicked the door open and stormed in, gripping his cane with menacing authority.

Michael looked at Gabriel in confusion. "Grandpa, what are you doing here? What happened?"

"You're asking me what happened?"

Gabriel raised his cane and struck Michael hard.

Elysia and Scarlett both froze.

Michael didn't dodge. He took several blows before asking, "Grandpa, what's going on?"

"You!"

Gabriel's rage intensified, and he struck even harder.

Elysia couldn't stand watching anymore and moved to intervene. Gabriel showed no mercy—he swung his cane at her too.

"Gabriel, how can you hit Elysia—"

Before Scarlett could finish, Gabriel gave her two solid whacks with the cane as well.

"What happened, Grandpa?" Michael's brow furrowed. "If you want to hit me, I won't resist. But at least tell me what's going on."

"Michael, even now you don't know what happened? Are you even human?"

Isadora burst in, tears streaming down her face:

"Michael, do you have any idea? Evelyn is pregnant with your child! A group of people, using your name, kidnapped Evelyn and tried to forcibly abort the baby. If I hadn't called Gabriel in time and he hadn't rushed to save her—your child with Evelyn would be dead by now!"

"That's impossible. I just saw Evelyn today. She was fine. She..."
