The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 375 Exposing the Background

"What did you just say? Isabella?"

Roger had already looked into Emily's mom, so he knew her name.

He just never thought his family's mess would get tangled up with them, and that

Emily might actually be his niece. If that were true, then Michael would be his nephew- in-law? How ridiculous.

The more Roger thought about it, the crazier it seemed.

How did Isabella turn into Vanessa?

How did she end up being his biological sister?

Roger knew quite a bit about Isabella, like how she took down her ex-husband Hayden. He'd heard she was

planning to merge Brown Corporation and start a new Taylor Corporation.

If such a powerful woman ever cto Ward Corporation, there'd be no room for him. Thinking about all this

made Roger uneasy.

He couldn't let this happen, and he definitely didn't want to get mixed up with the Smith family again.

After all, he was already on bad terms with Michael.

If Isabella bechis sister, and with Leo's support, his days in the Ward family would only get tougher. The

more he thought about it, the more anxious and resentful he became. Roger lowered his eyes in deep thought,

and when he looked up again, his eyes were bloodshot, and a cold, murderous intent flashed across his face.

His henchman, seeing this, assumed Roger had made up his mind and quickly spoke up.

"Mr. Ward, what should we do next?"

"What should we do? Get rid of her."

Get rid of her? Hearing Roger say this, the henchman was stunned, his eyes widening. "You mean, kill Isabella?"

Roger glared at him, a dangerous glint in his eyes, making the his scalp tingle. He swallowed hard and listened.

"What? Is that difficult? Isabella has no real backing. Even if she does, her support is just her daughter Emily and

son-in-law Michael. Do they think they can takeon?"

Hearing this, the henchman couldn't help but think to himself, 'Don't underestimate Michael. He's already given

us a hard time.

But he wouldn't dare say that out loud.

He still felt the pain from the beating Michael had given him. He couldn't believe they were about to deal with his

family again.

"Everyone in Emerald City says Emily and Michael are on the verge of divorce. They were fighting over property

division just a few days ago. Michael only stood up for Emily because he hates and envies me! A man can't lose

his dignity. So he probably won't care much about his ex-mother-in-law," Roger said, slowly looking at his

henchman.

"Now it depends on your ability. If you can quietly kill Isabella and eliminate my worries, I'll make sure you get a

good position at our overseas headquarters! As for the matters in Emerald City, you don't need to worry about

them!"

Roger's promise was too tempting.

The henchman had no reason not to be moved.

He didn't think much more about it. If he disobeyed Roger's order, he would be dead anyway. He might as well

take a chance. Maybe he could leave Emerald City and live a good life!

The more he thought about it, the more excited he got. He nodded eagerly at Roger. "Alright, Mr. Ward, I'll take

care of it!"

The next morning, Emily went to work at JM Jewelry as usual, and Isabella had her own errands to run.

The mother and daughter had agreed to drop the subject for now.

Emily understood Isabella's intentions and didn't want to get too caught up in whether or not to acknowledge

her. So, they let it go.

But Emily didn't realize that this morning's goodbye would lead to future regret. "Emily, letdrive you to

work?"

"No thanks, Mom. The subway's super convenient."

"I've told you before, it would be better to buy a car. We can afford it."

"We can, but | don't need one right now. It'd just be a waste, Mom!"

"You don't act like a rich girl at all. | don't know what to do with you! Then again, your father never knew how to

raise a child properly, so you weren't well brought

up!" Isabella spoke bluntly, unintentionally saying something harsh.

She didn't mean any harm, but Emily took it to heart.

If Isabella hadn't been sick back then, forcing her to live with her father, Hayden wouldn't have let Sophia and

Evelyn hurt her over and over.

She wouldn't have been so starved for love, wouldn't have fallen for a jerk like Michael, loving him for so many

years despite the pain... Maybe all these complex emotions mixed together in an instant.

Emily felt a bit down. She didn't respond to Isabella and quickly put on her shoes, leaving the house first. Isabella

called after her but couldn't stop her.

She realized she might have said something wrong.

But Emily was already gone, and she had to rush to check out a mall location, so she didn't have tto explain.

She could only wait until the evening.

She should have remembered that Emily was sensitive.

With no other choice, Isabella shook her head, grabbed a piece of toast, and left the house.

Emily quickly arrived at JM Jewelry by subway.

She hadn't been sleeping well the past few days, especially after that terrifying night at

the Ward Mansion. The memory still gave her chills, so she kept yawning on the way. Now, Emily was back to her

normal life.

Since Michael left the country, he hadn't contacted her.

Emily felt a sense of relief. She just wanted to focus on her job and make money.

Her thoughts were interrupted as she entered a coffee shop.

She wanted a cup of coffee to wake up.

But as she was about to pay, she realized something was wrong.

"Miss, I'm sorry, but this card isn't working."

"Try this one?"

"Sorry, this one doesn't work either. Maybe you can try another?"

"What about this one? This one should work." Emily handed over her salary savings card, and sure enough, it

worked.

The first two cards were no longer usable.

Emily's face turned grim.

Those two cards were given to her by Michael, containing her allowance and part of

her compensation, as well as sof her salary from JM Jewelry.
