The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 396 Rumor Rises Again

"It's not that I want to butt in, but you really don't know your limits!"

Scarlett had already been proven guilty of harming Mason, but as long as this matter didn't get out, she still held power.

She was still Michael and Veda's mother, and she had every right to discipline them. Even if they were abroad, so what? Could Michael and Veda really deny their mother? Michael might have said otherwise, but he still sent money every month.

A mother knows her son best.

Scarlett had a firm grip on Michael because of this.

"Tell me, how far have you and Emily gone? Didn't you say you two have been married for three years and you haven't touched her? If you haven't touched her, then how is she pregnant? This is clearly an illegitimate child! It's tarnishing the Smith family name..."

As Scarlett was about to start lecturing again, Michael couldn't be bothered and hung up the phone.

Veda had already come by earlier, saying Emily was pregnant with an illegitimate child. Now, Scarlett, who was abroad, was saying the same thing.

How did Scarlett find out so quickly?

There was only one possibility: Sophia, who had just returned from abroad, was stirring up trouble.

Initially, Michael wanted to tolerate her, but now he felt there was no need.

He found Sophia's number in his contacts and called her immediately.

Sophia was feeling quite pleased with herself for her clever schemes. First, she informed Veda, then Scarlett. She was sure no one would let Emily off the hook now.

Soon, everyone would know Emily was pregnant with an illegitimate child.

'Let's see how Emily could ever recover in Emerald City!' she thought smugly.

Sophia was reveling in her success, her phone rang.
