The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 253 Absurd Cooperation

Emily wasn't about to let Hayden's words get to her.

She knew the real was still to come, and the moment to leave Hayden speechless was just around the

corner.

So she shot back, "Congrats, Dad. Never thought you'd risk it all just to win this lawsuit."

Hayden was taken aback.

Did Emily figure something out?

He stammered, "What... what are you talking about? | told you ages ago, you can't beat me. You just wouldn't

listen. How does it feel now?"

"Emily, I'll say it again. Admit defeat, drop the lawsuit, and since we're family, | won't hold it against you!"

Seeing Hayden's smug face, Emily realized that from now on, she might really be on the opposite side of her

father. They'd never have a normal father-daughter relationship again.

Without a word, she grabbed her bag and walked out.

"I'm talking to you! How can you just leave? Everyone says a daughter is like a warm, comforting presence, but

Emily, you're not just a little chilly; you're like a cold, empty room. | don't want you, never will!" Hayden yelled

after her, while Sophia watched from a distance.

Seeing Emily leave, Sophia was annoyed and decided to follow. "Emily."

Hearing that familiar voice, Emily took a deep breath, thinking she had forgotten about Sophia.

She turned to see Sophia strutting over.

It had been a while since they last met, and Emily was surprised to see that after all the setbacks, Sophia had

bounced back.

Emily couldn't help but admire Sophia's resilience.

As Sophia stood in front of her, Emily smirked and asked, "What do you want?"

Sophia replied, "Sort of."

Emily said, "Then spit it out. | have things to do."

Seeing Emily in such a hurry, Sophia smiled. "Why the rush? I'm not gonna bite."

Emily just stared at her, unamused.

Sophia knew they weren't on friendly terms to sit down for a chat.

So she got straight to the point. "I know you're wary of me, afraid I'll harm you... But Emily, look atnow.

Michael's done with me, Dad's making up lies to get by, and my mom..."

Sophia laughed bitterly. "She's always dreaming of getting rich by following Dad around... But there aren't many

good things in the world. Today, | want to talk to you about teaming up."

With that, Sophia raised an eyebrow at Emily.

She thought that in this critical moment, if she proposed teaming up, Emily would surely accept. After all, Emily

had no one to rely on except Michael.

But who was Michael?

He didn't care about Emily's fate, but even if he did, he'd care more about Smith Corporation's reputation.

He wouldn't get involved in the Brown Corporation mess.

Besides Michael, who else could help Emily?

It sure as hell wouldn't be her comatose mother, right?

The thought was just ridiculous.

Thinking about it, Sophia felt like she had the upper hand.

If she couldn't win over the president of Smith Corporation, she had to team up with

the right person to get something out of it, right?

Otherwise, leaving the Brown Villa with Hayden after all these years would be a total loss.

"Cooperation? Sophia, you get more amusing by the day. You say there aren't many good things in the world,

and then you want to talk about teaming up with me?" Emily chuckled, her eyes and brows curving in a way that

really got under Sophia's skin. "Do you think the original wife and the mistress have anything to cooperate on?"

"Besides, I'm not interested in competing with you for Michael anymore. If you want him, go ahead... Oh, | forgot,

that depends on whether he still wants you, right?" Sophia snapped, "Emily, you!"

She never expected that in just a few days, Emily's ability to piss people off had gotten so good that she couldn't

even argue back.

Did Emily really mean it when she said if she wanted Michael, she could have him?

Could it be that Emily and Michael really had no feelings left?

Could it be that she no longer wanted Michael's protection?

For a moment, Sophia felt lost.

She used to enjoy competing with Emily for Michael, but now that Emily was no longer interested in Michael,

what was she after? The Brown family's money? Their fand fortune?

Suddenly, Sophia's eyes lit up. "I can

Sophia was desperate, she had lost her mind and didn't consider the damage to her own interests.

She thought she could make deals with anyone as long as she offered something beneficial.

But Sophia never expected that her seemingly bold attempt to betray the family and gain Emily's response

would seem like a joke to her.

People hurried by, and Sophia stood there in a daze, watching Emily's figure gradually disappear. She clenched

her fists tightly, the veins on the back of her hands bulging. "Emily, since you're so determined, I'll make sure

you see who really holds the final victory!"

Back at the hospital, Emily was not in a good state.
