Chapter 44

What did Skyler mean by this?

She clearly already knew that Sydney was pregnant, but she still let the nanny give her medicine. Did they just see women as baby-making machines?

As long as they can have kids, nothing else mattered?

Celeste pursed her lips and said, “You know that Liam and I are about to get a divorce. There’s really no need for me to take this medicine anymore.”

She didn’t want to have children with Liam anymore, and her worth was not just about having children.
