The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 529 At the Moment of Danger

After getting confirmation from the other end, Jenny took a deep breath and continued, "When I first got your instructions, I thought it was kinda weird. I mean, who doubts their own mom? But now I get it. You were right to be suspicious.

"I've seen plenty of good actors in my time. Your mom looks so sweet on the outside. If I hadn't pushed her, she could've kept up her act in front of Miss Brown for days, maybe even gotten chummy with the hospital staff!"

Jenny paused, her tone growing more serious. "Mr. Smith, I know I shouldn't say this, but Miss Brown is in real danger. I'll protect her this time, but what about next time? You can't always have someone watching over her.

"I also get that she's your mom. What you've done so far is already the hardest thing you could bring yourself to do. But if you keep hesitating, you might lose more!"

Michael fell silent on the other end of the line.

Jenny's words, though nagging, weren't baseless. They echoed Michael's own thoughts.

Sending Scarlett abroad for confinement seemed like a ruthless, impartial decision. But in reality?

Michael had struggled countless times, unable to completely sever the bond.

Eventually, he softened and reduced Scarlett's punishment, allowing her to regain her freedom so quickly.

But she hadn't realized her mistakes. Instead, she intensified her schemes around Emily. Now, Jenny was an actress Michael had hired, a "co-conspirator" to provoke Scarlett. Michael needed to convince himself.

He wanted to see just how cruel Scarlett could be. What kind of monstrous acts could this woman, his biological mother, commit against her own son?

"I understand. Thanks, Jenny, for telling me this."

Jenny sighed in relief at Michael's response.

She had observed enough during her days at the hospital.

She genuinely wanted to protect Emily, and she had seen some of Scarlett's vicious methods.

"Alright then, Mr. Smith..."
