The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 431 Tit for Tat

Emily's voice was calm, but it cut through the air like a knife, reaching everyone around.

Every word was sharp, every sentence hit hard, and Leo couldn't take it.

Now, with the crowd and media all over the Ward family's scandal, what could he do?

He had seriously underestimated Emily.

"Emily, I've asked you over and over to come back to the Ward family! You refused! So now, I have no reason to protect your reputation anymore!"

A flash of malice crossed Leo's eyes, and a cruel smile crept across his slightly aged face, making everyone shiver and freeze for a moment.

He spoke up, "You divorced from the Smith family and suddenly got pregnant with an illegitimate child. Without the Ward family, how do you plan to move forward? As for your father, who can't survive without a woman, what will he do now?

"And Ms. Penelope Blair... we're old friends. She values dignity and career above all. How could she allow a woman with questionable morals to work for her?"

Leo aired Emily's dirty laundry right in front of the media, talking about things she least wanted to discuss.

Emily was, of course, furious.

It felt like swallowing a live fly-utterly disgusting.

With Isabella gone, her only living blood relative besides Hayden was Leo. Hearing the whispers around her, judging her and her father, Emily felt like her head was being struck by a giant bell. She was so angry her chest heaved violently.

"Have you said enough?"

Emily had expected Leo to pester her repeatedly, demanding she return to the Ward family. She had even anticipated him using his or her mother Isabella's reputation to threaten her into sparing Roger.

But she never imagined Leo would stoop so low!
