The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

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."noveldrama

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..."

Before Jenny could finish, a sharp scream echoed down the hallway.

"Ah!"

The scream was so piercing, it seemed to tear through the air.

Jenny shuddered but quickly realized, "Something's wrong! It's Miss Brown!"

She dropped her phone and rushed towards the patient room through the emergency exit.

Meanwhile, Scarlett, with bloodshot eyes, had one hand tightly gripping Emily's neck.

Her heavily made-up face showed no warmth, her features twisted into a grotesque mask, like a demon emerging from hell.

Emily had been jolted awake from her sleep!

She had no idea when Scarlett had appeared!

The force of Scarlett's grip was enough to make Emily gasp for air, tears streaming down her face.

But she didn't want to die!

Thinking of her newborn son, Harry, who was less than a week old, Emily's heart ached. Seeing Scarlett's menacing face and feeling her ruthless strength, Emily shivered, her whole body trembling in fear.

Overwhelmed by terror, Emily struggled in vain against Scarlett's grip, her breath growing more labored, on the brink of suffocation.

Suddenly!

Just as Emily felt all hope was lost, Jenny burst into the room.

"What the hell are you doing!" Jenny shouted, lunging at Scarlett and prying her hand away with all her strength. "Are you out of your mind!"

Scarlett hadn't accounted for Jenny in her plan.

She had done her research. Jenny was just an insignificant nanny, and she hadn't been at the hospital at night.

Why was she here today?

Jenny's unexpected appearance threw Scarlett off. Panic flashed in her eyes, but her hatred for Emily only grew. She gritted her teeth and snarled.

"None of you can stop me! I will kill her today! Emily, with Michael gone, let's see who can protect you now! You must die today, no one can take the Smith family fortune from me!"

Scarlett's eyes blazed with fury, but Jenny's interference weakened her grip slightly. Emily seized the chance to breathe, but the red marks on her neck were glaring. Seeing this, Jenny used all her strength, pulling at Scarlett while shouting for help. "Someone, help! Call for help!"

Emily's room was a VIP suite arranged by Michael, with high security.

But Scarlett knew this.

That's why she had waited, using her resources to disrupt the hospital's security system, sneaking in unnoticed to kill Emily.

Scarlett had spent a considerable amount for this.

Today, she was determined to kill Emily! She couldn't let her plan fail.

With a resolute look in her eyes, Scarlett pushed Jenny away and lunged at Emily again.

"You think you can stop me? Do you know, she's just a worthless nobody. The money

to hire you came from my son. Why are you risking your life? Help me, and I'll give you

a fortune to live comfortably for half your life!"

Scarlett's eyes glared at Jenny, her grip on Emily tightening.

But Emily wouldn't let herself be bullied.

Seeing Scarlett's attention waver, Emily used all her strength to struggle, digging her nails into Scarlett's arm until the pain made her loosen her grip. Emily then bit down hard!

Scarlett screamed in pain, her hand loosening. Emily broke free, tumbling off the bed! "Ah!"

Another scream.

Jenny seized the moment, holding Scarlett tightly and shouting, "Miss Brown, run!"

Emily, ignoring her pain, was just relieved Harry wasn't there to be caught in this.

She scrambled to the door, fumbling with the lock, and fled the room, Scarlett's furious shouts echoing behind her. "Get back here!"
