The Billionaire's Mistake

Chapter 92

MISTAKE 92

hapter 92: Anya is Taken

Anya sat with her friend Emma, who looked scared and sad. They were talking about Emma's young son, Henry, and the problems in Emma's home. Anya knew she had to help her friend make some tough choices.

"Then you prefer him to grow up in a home where his father hits his mother?" Anya asked gently, watching Emma's face carefully. She hated seeing her friend hurt like this.. Emma twisted her hands in her lap. "So I should leave? Just because of that?"

"Isn't that enough?" Anya leaned forward, her voice firm but kind. "You are his mother, so I'll ask you now. Look inside your heart-is that home really the safest place for Henry to grow up, or is it just the place you think is family because you're used to it? Is he truly safe in that house?" Anya paused, then added, "He's almost three years old but can't talk yet. Do you really want me to believe nothing bad is happening in that house?"

Anya reached out and touched Emma's hand. "Emma, I just want what's best for you and Henry. Richard is a lawyer who has helped other people like you, and he can help us figure out the legal stuff. But you need to be strong. You are Henry's mother. You need to protect him, even if it means burning that whole life down. What are you so afraid of? How much longer can Henry wait?"

Emma's hands started shaking at Anya's words. Her eyes filled with tears, and her face showed how much pain she was in. Biting her lip to keep from crying, she finally whispered, "She would tie him up in his room." As soon as she said the words, Emma seemed to freeze, like she couldn't believe she'd actually said them out loud.

"Who did it?" Anya's voice cracked with anger.

"She would lock him in a dark room for hours while I was away," Emma continued, her voice trembling.

"WHO did this?!" Their friend Olivia demanded.

"My mother-in-law," Emma finally admitted.

Richard, the lawyer who had been quietly listening, spoke up. His voice was cold and serious." Then take everything from them."

Emma looked at him helplessly. "I have a preschool. If I leave the marriage, I get nothing, and I have to leave Henry behind."
