The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 546

Chapter 546 Hypocrisy

Just as Michael had suspected, Leo's illness was indeed a ruse.

It might fool Alice, but it sure wouldn't fool Bryan, and it definitely wouldn't fool

Michael.

Michael knew that no matter how good Leo's acting was, he couldn't hide the sharpness and calculation in his eyes.

Leo clearly hadn't anticipated Michael's visit today.

Leo's real goal was to lure Emily to his home, so he could probe her relationship with the Smith family and then take control of the situation.

In other words, Leo never wanted a compliant and well-behaved granddaughter or one who would only cause trouble. What he wanted was someone like Emily, who had her own value and could be used as a pawn to manipulate various forces.

Michael was fully aware of this but remained calm and observant.

No matter how deep Leo's schemes ran, they couldn't escape Michael's keen insight.

Michael knew that in this game, Leo's every move was meticulously planned, and he would never enter the fray lightly, nor would he allow Emily and the child to be dragged into it.

If the Smith family was complicated, then the Ward family was even more terrifying, like an abyss.

What angered Michael even more was that Leo saw Emily as a pawn, completely disregarding family ties, and now he was involving Bryan as well. It was a frightening calculation, hard to guard against and even harder to discern.
