Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Margot glanced at her, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"Hasn't Josh been dreaming of a great-grandkid all this time? It's been three years, and Selena's still not pregnant. But you, you're different."

Wendy reached over and gently touched Margot's stomach. "With this little one on the way, do you really think Josh could turn you away? He can't afford to wait much longer."

If Josh were to live a long life, even if Margot had a child, he might not welcome her into the family. He could even try to nip any issues in the bud before the baby is born.

But now, time's running out for him. As long as Selena remains childless until his final moments, and Margot announces her pregnancy just before he passes, how could he possibly deny her existence?

Margot felt herself calming down after Wendy's analysis.

Wendy continued, "Right now, you need to focus on taking care of yourself and this baby. Don't let anything jeopardize that. And make sure you keep Everett close. Don't give Selena a chance to get pregnant too. Then... you'll be the one who comes out on top!"

Margot looked down at her belly, a fleeting, strange emotion flickering in her eyes. Then she smirked, "You're right. I don't need to get caught up in all that drama with Selena. I'm the one having the baby. The future Mrs. Bennett will be me!"
