I was planning to discuss this with you anyway I've looked into the Chadwick Group's share structure changes Warren handed over 30% of his shares to Howard He now controls a whopping 50% "What Vivien nearly broke her voice What sort of treasure had she missed out on?

It's Eaton's birthday bash. Plenty of eligible bachelors will be there. You might get a chance to mingle" Vivien eagerly asked. "Will Howard be there?" "Of course, he will" Herman eyed her with suspicion, "But I'd advise you to not set your sights on Howard. Even I can't figure him out." Vivien lowered her head, biting her lip hard All she wanted was to snatch back the man that was rightfully hers.
"Go to your room and tidy yourself up, look at the state of you. Don't embarrassat the party in a couple of days. Herman said, eyeing the bruises on her skin with a frown. "'Till find you a suitable match." "Okay" agreed Vivien.
She needed to clean up, take good care of her skin, and prepare for the day she would make her move on Howard.
Vivien walked upstairs After she left. Gemma cout of the kitchen n with a bowl of herbal concoction, a smile still lingering on her face "This is the wellness recipe Enoch gave us," Gemma said, "It's good for both men and women." "Really?" Herman didn't doubt her words. He was just surprised at the timely benefit.
"Yes! If we both get our health in check, it'll help with conceiving." Gemma, with a selective memory, wrapped her arms around Herman, "Honey, I want to have your baby." Herman flickered his eyes, "Don't risk being an older mother, I'd be worried sick. Remember what happened to Mrs. Lopez? She nearly bled out" Gemma grew sweeter, "Id be so happy to have your child." He peeled her hands off and asked, "What about raising a child, then?" Gemma fraze Herman continued, "You're not getting any younger, and there could be health risks for the baby, not to mention the pain of childbirth. What if I brought a child from outside for you to raise? How about that? "Honey, what are you saying?" Gemma trembled her heart.
"Gemma, I have a son outside. Just born, not even a month old. I've decided to put him in your name." It wasn't a discussion but was an announcement.

Herman knew she would comply because she was always submissive and couldn't bear to lose the luxury and prestige of being a part of the Sawyer family. Gemma accidentally knocked over the bowl of herbal medicine, tears rolling down her cheeks.
What was the point of all those years searching for remedies and cures? It was all for nothing! In the end, she was to raise another woman's child
"Gemma, my son can't be called illegitimate. It doesn't matter who his mother is. Lhope you can understand that!" Herman stood up, patted her shoulder, and walked away. His message was clear that if she didn't agree, she could be replaced as his wife.
Gemma collapsed to her knees, crying, a picture of utter despair.
