Henry Underwood announced Charles Prescott's orders expressionlessly. "Mr. Prescott said that from now on, he won't let you see the child again."
"Why?" Sylvia Warren protested. "I'm the one who went through so much to give birth to Leo."
Henry Underwood looked at Sylvia Warren and said, "Miss Warren, you're a smart woman. If I were you, I'd take what's yours and leave quickly. If I remember correctly, your mother is still in the hospital, isn't she? What, are you planning on a scorched-earth approach, not even caring about your own mother?"
It seemed Henry Underwood was very experienced in handling matters like this.
He was quite skilled with this mix of threats and enticements.
The moment she heard him mention her mother, Sylvia Warren instantly backed down. She had no powerful connections; there was no way she could fight Charles Prescott.
