My hand holding the spoon paused. Then, I continued to reach for food. 

“Didn’t we anticipate this from the start? What is there to prepare? I’ve spoken to Caleb earlier to convince Leonard to divorce me.” 

Emma pouted. “Even pregnancy couldn’t keep Amelia away. She would still come to the company occasionally. While you were away the past few days, she pranced around as if she was the lady of the house. I thought she was desperate to keep her baby. Why is she causing trouble everywhere she goes?”
