Emma was stunned that Frank had actually agreed. "Are you sure? Frank, don''t you regret this."


    Frank replied, "I won''t regret it. As long as you don''t."


    Perhaps fearing Emma would change her mind and refuse to have the baby, Frank had hiswyers and ountants work around the clock.


    He transferred all hispany shares and personal assets to the name of his unborn child. Until the child turned eighteen, Frank would hold the shares in trust, and Emma would manage the other assets.


    With the agreement in ce, Emma decided to keep the baby.


    She settled into a peaceful pregnancy, her belly growing day by day. At six months,


    a check-up revealed she was having a boy.


    This news finally spurred Carol and her children into action.


    Carol brazenly showed up at the vi, holding Eden and Vanessa by the hand.


    When Carol saw Emma''srge, pregnant belly, her face twisted into a vicious scowl. "Who let you in? Get out," Emma said, frowning at the sight of them.


    But Carol ignored her, leading her children straight into the vi and looking around as if she owned the ce.


    "This is Frank''s home, which means it''s my home and my children''s home. Eden and Vanessa are Frank''s biological children," Carol dered, then pointed at Emma''s stomach.


    “That thing in your belly is just an unborn fetus. Who knows if it''s even Frank''s? I''ve heard you actresses are all so promiscuous, sleeping with who knows how many men! Ah!"


    Before Carol could finish her sentence, Emma pped her across the face.


    "You bitch, you dare to hit me!" Carol clutched her cheek, ring venomously at Emma.


    "Get out of my house right now, or I''ll do more than just hit you. I''ll call the police," Emma said coldly.


    "Don''t you bully my mommy!" Eden stepped in front of Carol, spreading his arms protectively.


    Emma didn''t want to deal with them. She turned to go upstairs, instructing the housekeeper to throw the three of them out.


    The housekeeper approached and politely but firmly asked Carol to leave.


    Carol refused to go and argued with the housekeeper. Eden started struggling with a security guard white frantically signaling to Vanessa  t


    Vanessa understood. She darted behind Emma and, when Emma wasn''t looking, gave her a hard shove.


    Her mother and brother had told her that if this woman had a baby boy, their daddy wouldn''t want them anymore. They would be sent to the countryside where there would be no more tasty food no pretty dresses, and no big house.


    Vanessa didn''t want to go back to the countryside. She wasn''t going to let this woman have the baby in her belly.


    Emma tumbled down the stairs. The impact caused her water to break, and she started bleeding.


    She screamed, clutching her stomach in a panic.


    The housekeeper was terrified. She immediately called for an ambnce and notified Frank.


    Seeing Emma fall down the stairs, covered in blood, Carol felt a surge of satisfaction. The Thompson household erupted into chaos. She used the confusion to quickly grab her children and flee.
