Because of Larissa, Cecilia despised all pretentious women.


    At this moment, Alina was exactly that type.


    She hid in Brendon’s arms, crying, “Brendon, my stomach hurts. The baby must have been frightened by them.”


    Brendon held her tenderly. “Don’t be afraid, darling. I’ll protect you.”


    He looked at Amelia. “Amelia, I advise you to get a divorce quickly. You can still get some money, and it won’t be hard to find someone else. But with your temper, I doubt any man could stand you.”


    That smug, condescending tone was truly unpleasant.


    Alina rolled her eyes. “Exactly, no man likes a woman who reeks of old age.”


    Cecilia sneered, stepped forward, grabbed Alina by the hair, and yanked her over hard.


    If Brendon hadn’t protected her, Alina would have fallen to the ground.


    “What are you doing?” Alina screamed in pain.


    Cecilia didn’t let go. When Brendon came over to push her away, she said directly, “I’m carrying Wesley’s child. Want to try me?”


    Brendon immediately withdrew his hand


    After all, his sry was paid by Wesley, his own son


    Cecilia pressed Alina’s face against the wall. “Apologize.”

    Alina screamed in pain. “Fine, fine, I’ll apologize!”


    She cried as she apologized to Amelia.


    Brendon’s eyes were full of distress, but he didn’t dare do anything to Cecilia.


    He could only apologize along with Alina. “Amelia, I apologize to you. Please ask Cecilia to let Alina go.”


    Before Amelia could say anything, Cecilia had already let go.


    She simply couldn’t stand women who acted pretentious and bullied the wife just because they had a man backing them.


    She wasn’t really trying to help Amelia.


    So as soon as the other side apologized, she let go immediately.


    But it was at this moment that something unexpected happened.


    Amelia gave Alina a hard shove. Alina’s body mmed into the wall, and she clutched her stomach, screaming in agony.


    Cecilia was stunned.


    She looked at Amelia in disbelief.


    Amelia stared at Alina’s pained expression, looking almost deranged. “No one can threaten Wes’s position.”


    She said viciously, “No one.”


    Alina lost her child, and Brendon called the police.


    At the police station!


    Cecilia rubbed her temples, feelingpletely out of sorts.

    Not far away, Amelia was still arguing with Brendon, repeating the same things over and over.


    Amelia refused to divorce and couldn’t ept Brendon’s infidelity, while Brendon, having a childte in life, was especially furious about Alina’s miscarriage and thought Amelia was too vicious.


    Neither of them was willing to back down first.


    Cecilia felt exhausted just listening to them.


    She regretted meddling and getting herself involved.


    Now, even if she wanted to leave, she couldn’t.


    Wesley was already on his way, and with a little inquiry, he would surely find out why she was at that private hospital.


    She felt guilty.


    Lost in her thoughts, Amelia suddenly called out, “Wes, you’re here!”


    Cecilia looked up and met Wesley’s deep, heavy gaze.


    Her heart skipped a beat, and she clenched her fingers tightly.


    Wesley spoke with the police for a moment, then walked over to his parents.


    “Have you argued enough?”


    Tears welled up in Amelia’s eyes, and her voice trembled. “His woman outside got pregnant, Wes. He promised me he would never let those women get pregnant.”


    Brendon mmed the table. “I’m over fifty years old. So what if I have a child? By the time he grows up, Wes will have already established

    When he left the Carlton family, Frank’s only condition was that he not have any illegitimate children outside.


    After all, Frank had suffered a lot because of illegitimate children.


    Brendon agreed for the sake of his own freedom.


    “Brendon, you went back on your word,” Amelia used.


    Brendon shouted back, refusing to show weakness: “It’s all your fault, you vicious woman! You killed my child, and you’ll pay for it!”


    “Enough,” Wesley said coldly, looking at them.


    He had no feelings for Brendon, so his tone was hardly friendly. “Elijah has already negotiatedpensation with your woman.”


    Brendon froze.


    Wesley looked at Amelia, more helpless than anything. “Stop making a scene. Let’s go home.”


    Amelia had suffered greatly in her marriage, which had shaped her current temperament.


    Wesley understood, so he was willing to clean up the mess.


    But Amelia refused. “Compensation? Why should youpensate her? She seduced someone else’s husband. It would be better if she


    died!”


    Wesley chose not to hear it. He signed the papers and walked over to Cecilia. “Let’s go.”

    “Cecilia, is this how you repay me, hmm?”


    He had long sensed something was off about her, but he had always held onto a sliver of hope.
