The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 359 The Rumors

Emily was swamped with work.

Meanwhile, the Smith family had their own drama unfolding.

As soon as Mason got out of the hospital, he was dead set on kicking Scarlett out of Emerald City. This woman was nothing but trouble, and just hearing her name gave him a headache.

But Scarlett hadn't divorced Michael's dad, Alexander. Technically, she was still the mistress of the Smith family, which meant she still had a place in the family.

"I raised heirs for the Smith family. Do you think that was easy? Now you're forcing my kids to disown me and trying to erase me from the family records. Your son would never agree to this if he knew in the afterlife!"
