The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 220 The Ward Family Causes a Scene

The Smith family had a bit of a situation, and Bryan figured it wasn't really his place to get involved.

This whole mess was between the Smiths and the Wards. Bryan was stuck in the middle, with his future father-in-law on one side and his old buddy on the other. It was a tough spot, and both Emily and Alice got that.

So, the two women exchanged a look and quickly decided to head over to Smith Corporation.

Meanwhile, Luna had just hung up the phone. She stared at the contact labeled "Alice" on her phone, super frustrated, and then tossed the phone onto the conference table. Roger, hearing the noise, looked up and immediately got the gist. "What? Your sister's not coming?"

"She'll come, but whether she's here to help you is another story," Luna shot back, clearly annoyed.

Both Roger and Luna looked pretty ticked off. Roger, not caring about family ties, snorted, "Sometimes your sister is even more clueless than you! I bend over backward to get her benefits, and what does she do? She runs off to who knows where, and doesn't even have half the sense you do!"

It was hard to tell if that was supposed to be a compliment to Luna.

Luna crossed her legs. She was rocking a dark red, tight-fitting dress with sequins at the hem, making her look super striking. With her wavy curls, she was even more flamboyant than Sophia.

But hey, that's Luna for you. She'd been raised with a free-spirited education abroad, so her style wasn't a shock to anyone who knew her.

Roger didn't like it, but he couldn't change Luna. After all, he was the one who sent her abroad in the first place. Luckily, Alice, despite her bubbly personality, dressed pretty conservatively. However, what gave Roger a headache was that she never seemed to consider the family's interests.

Just as expected, within ten minutes, Alice showed up, bringing along a woman who looked kinda familiar.
