Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1414

"Ha." Emmy let out a cold laugh, the corners of her lips curling into a mocking sneer. "Mr. Nelson truly is a master strategist. You have even calculated decades into the future. But aiming this kind of ruthless scheming at your own unborn child, do you not think you are a monster?"

Emmy took a step forward, staring directly into his eyes. "Because you are terrified of brothers fighting, you want to just murder the second born? What kind of twisted logic is that? I am only going to say this one last time."

Her voice was not loud, but every single word carried immense weight. "Whether it is a boy or a girl, as long as this baby is here, I am keeping it! And no matter the gender, I will raise them properly. I will teach them to love their siblings, to be honest, and to be kind! I will never let them get dragged into your supposed elite family wars, and I will absolutely never let them hurt each other!"

With that, Emmy turned around and yanked the study door open.

Outside, Brett had just raised his fist to knock. He froze as he took in Emmy's red eyes and furious expression. Emmy gave him a curt nod of greeting, then turned sideways and stormed off down the hall without a word, leaving a trail of icy air in her wake.

Brett scratched the back of his head in utter bewilderment. He cautiously poked his head into the study.

"Captain, what happened to your wife? She looked really angry, and her eyes were all red."

James's brows remained tightly knitted. "It is nothing," he replied, turning a frustrated gaze toward Brett. "What do you want?"

Sensing his boss's foul mood, Brett did not dare ask further questions. He quickly stepped inside and offered the brown envelope in his hands with the utmost respect.

"Captain, the official documents from the higher ups just arrived."

James took the envelope, expertly unwinding the white string that sealed it, and pulled out the paperwork. He quickly scanned the contents, and his tight frown relaxed slightly. The official directives from the United Nations had finally come through.
