The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Tom's eyelids twitched a few times before he widened his eyes. "Hayden, are you trying to pull a fast one on me? Evelyn's money is my money, right? Why shouldn't I fight for it?"

Hayden couldn't help but laugh louder. He had seen foolish people before, but never anyone this foolish.

"Tom, I know you're not exactly a scholar, but you should at least know a bit about the law! Evelyn has a kid, our daughter, and her assets are definitely going to Sophia. What does that have to do with you? You're dreaming if you think you have a claim!"

With that, Hayden bent over laughing under Tom's furious gaze.

Tom's face turned livid. Seeing Hayden's smug expression, his anger almost burst out of his chest, but he forced himself to stay calm.

"Hayden, don't think you can get away with this!" He said through gritted teeth. "The law considers human relationships, too, right? If I go to Evelyn now and tell her I'm struggling, do you think she won't help me?"

Hayden thought his plan was perfect.

"You're wrong, Tom. The person you should be asking is Sophia. For the assets to be transferred to you, Sophia has to agree. Do you think she would go against her mother?"

"Instead of fighting for shares, you should find a girlfriend and get married back in your hometown!"

Hayden's words were full of mockery, and Tom found them even more unbearable, but he had no way to refute them.

After all, Hayden was Sophia's father, and he knew exactly what kind of person Sophia

was.

Sophia, although his niece, had always lived a wealthy life, spoiled and arrogant, with all the flaws of the rich. She didn't even respect her parents.

As an uncle, how could she possibly respect him?

The shares of Brown Corporation were undoubtedly more important to her!

Tom was completely defeated in this battle, with no chance of winning.

Now, he had to go back and come up with a new plan.

No matter what, he had to get something from Hayden. He couldn't return empty- handed; that would be too humiliating!

Leaving Brown Corporation, Tom thought for a long time, and suddenly a new idea popped into his head.

Going after Sophia wasn't impossible, but she was at the Emerald City Police Department.noveldrama

That place made Tom feel weak every time he stepped in, and he didn't dare to cause trouble.

But there was someone he could talk to. After all, the enemy of my enemy was my friend.

Tom was quite experienced in sowing discord.

Soon, he found the number of another niece, Emily, who had no blood relation and whom he had barely met.

Tom smiled and dialed the number without hesitation.

The call was answered quickly, accompanied by the sound of a child crying. Tom thought, she must be a housewife now.

After all, her child would inherit Smith Corporation with endless wealth.

Thinking of this, Tom immediately put on a smile and said eagerly, "Hey, Emily! It's Uncle Tom!"

Emily was taken aback.

She didn't know she had an uncle, but Tom's voice wasn't unfamiliar.

When she was younger, she often heard Evelyn calling her brother at the Brown family, mostly to ask for money, which often ended in Evelyn jumping with anger and the debt collection being unsuccessful.

This scoundrel suddenly calling her couldn't be for anything good.

Taking a deep breath, Emily handed Harry to the nanny, walked out of the bedroom, and said coldly, "Uncle Tom from the Brown family, huh? What do you want?" Tom didn't care. As long as Emily knew him, this would be much easier! "Emily, I heard you had a baby, and Uncle Tom hasn't congratulated you yet. Also, it's been a long time since we last met. I thought I'd come see the baby and bring a gift!"

"Do you have time now? How about we meet? Near your home is fine! I have no bad intentions; I just suddenly miss you!"

Sudden enthusiasm meant no good intentions.

Emily frowned, indifferent to Tom's proposal.

Her intuition told her Tom's sudden concern wasn't out of pure familial affection.

Emily was amused by her own thoughts.

How could there be any familial affection between them?

"Uncle Tom, I'm very busy and might not have time to go out with you. But if you really

care, you can come directly to my place."

Emily's suggestion caught Tom off guard.

But being invited to her home meant there was a chance!

Maybe this foolish woman could actually help him.

Not only was the money of the rich easy to swindle, but the people they raised might be even easier to deceive.

Tom was secretly delighted; this was exactly what he hoped for. He immediately replied, "No problem, I'll be right over!"

Hanging up, Emily's expression darkened a bit more, but soon she laughed coldly.

She made another call, this time to Andrew.

Andrew was organizing files in the secretary's office when he received Emily's call in surprise.

"Mrs. Smith."

As soon as Andrew spoke, the others in the secretary's office looked over, curiosity written on their faces.

"Andrew, are you busy? I need your help with something." Emily's voice was calm and firm.

"Please tell me, Mrs. Smith. I'll do my best." Andrew immediately replied.

Emily rarely asked for help, especially from him.

This was clearly important, and he immediately became serious, listening to her.

"Come to my house now, and bring about ten burly bodyguards. Don't worry, nothing major has happened. I just want to invite you all for coffee."

Andrew's heart skipped a beat. Though he didn't understand, he nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I'll prepare to leave right away."

After hanging up, Andrew hesitated and decided to report to Michael first.
