“Release her!” Malcolm shouted.
Somehow, Malcolm had appeared outside the obstetrics and gynecology clinic.
Sophia’s operating room was far away from here. Shouldn’t he be guarding them there?
How did he end up here?
Sherry pushed Mr. Sniper away, signaling for him to let her go.
But Mr. Sniper showed no intention of releasing her. Instead, he held her tighter, clearly
asserting his possession.
Malcolm’s expression instantly changed, and tension arose between the two men.
Sherry struggled, but she couldn’t break free from his grip. She could only resign herself
to his embrace and say, “Let’s go.”
“No, you can’t leave!” Malcolm rushed forward to block Mr. Sniper’s path, sneering,
*Sherry, you are still my wife. You are carrying another man’s child, and you think you

can just walk away like this?”
His voice was loud, immediately drawing the attention of many people around him.
Outside the obstetrics and gynecology clinic, there were many pregnant women and
their families waiting for consultations. The area fell silent, and all eyes were fixed on
them.
Countless gazes focused on her, making Sherry feel uneasy. She frowned and
whispered, “Malcolm, this is a hospital. If you want to cause a scene, go outside and
don’t disturb others.”
Malcolm’s eyes turned cold. “Terminate the pregnancy.”
“It’s impossible.”

“Go and terminate it! Your sister almost had a miscarriage because of your uncle. She is
still in critical condition, and I have already reported it to the police. They should have
caught him by now. If you don’t get rid of the child, I will make sure your uncle stays in
prison for life.”

Sherry was shocked. She pushed Mr. Sniper away and jumped out of his arms. “What
did you say?”
“I said get rid of the child!” Malcolm stepped forward, ready to grab her.

But Mr. Sniper was faster. He quickly pushed Malcolm’s hand away and shielded Sherry
behind him. “Mr. Ford, please show some respect.”
“What respect do I need when talking to my own wife? And you, Sherry, are my wife.
What are you? A wanted criminal, right? Why didn’t the police arrest you too?”
“Malcolm!” Sherry shouted, “If you have time to bother me, why don’t you go and check
on Sophia?”
“She’s waiting for a blood transfusion. Didn’t you say you would donate blood to save
the child in her womb? Why aren’t you donating blood now? You were just talking all
high and mighty earlier, but now you’re backing down.”
Just as she was about to speak, Mr. Sniper interrupted her, saying, “Sherry, I’ll handle it.”

“But you…”
“It’s fine,” Malcolm supported her, gently wrapping his arm around her to protect her from the crowd’s pushing and shoving. He stood tall and composed, and he said,
“Malcolm, you know the reasons behind divorcing Sherry lie within yourself. You know how you and your mother drove her out of the house, leaving her homeless. If you’re
not satisfied, you can go to court, but you also need to think clearly. Once this matter enters the legal process, half of your post-marital property will have to be given to
Sherry. Is your stingy mother willing to accept that? Are you willing to accept that? How
about we both compromise and avoid all this trouble? What do you think?”
Malcolm listened silently, clenching his teeth throughout the entire conversation.
He understood in his heart that Sherry’s attitude clearly indicated that she wanted a
divorce. Even if she had a lover outside and was pregnant, he himself had an affair with
Sophia. If it came to court, the blame would lie with him, and the distribution of
post-marital property would likely favor Sherry.
He was just trying to scare her, hoping she would submit. He didn’t expect this man to
have some eloquence.

Malcolm gritted his teeth in anger. “Sherry and I will not divorce. I don’t mind if she has
an abortion. I will live a good life with her. Divorce is out of the question.”
“So, does that mean you will help me raise our son?” Mr. Sniper spoke lightly, with a
faint smile. “When did Mr. Ford become so kind-hearted?”
“Stop it! You’re just trying to drive a wedge between Sherry and me! Sherry, I’ve already
told you today that I’ve ended things with Sophia, and we can start over. I won’t hold
anything against you and this lover of yours, as long as you come back.”
Leaning on Mr. Sniper’s arm, Sherry couldn’t help but feel how foolish she had been in
the past.
How blind was she to hope for someone like Malcolm to change? She had hoped for
four years!
Malcolm didn’t want to split his property and even wanted to use her uncle’s safety to threaten her. If she compromised and had an abortion, would he still kick her out and
drive her away once again?
Chapter 66 Ripple Effect
She had fallen for such a scheme once, but she would never fall for it a second time.
“Let it go, Mr. Ford. Let’s not burn bridges. It’s not good for us if we focus too much on the details,” Sherry said. “Rest assured, as long as you quickly go with me to handle the
divorce procedures, I won’t ask for a single penny of the Ford family’s assets. What you
do with Sophia is your business, and it has nothing to do with me from now on. I did say that I wanted to donate blood to save her child, but now I’m also pregnant. I really want
to help, but I can’t do it at the expense of my own child.”
Malcolm smirked coldly. “If you don’t donate blood, Sophia’s child will be lost, and your
uncle will surely be in prison.”
“Malcolm, you…”
“Sherry, I’ve always spoken to you kindly and begged you to come back. If you’re not
willing, don’t blame me for being unfair. If you want to save your uncle, then listen to
me, terminate the pregnancy, and come back to me.”
“Are you threatening me, Malcolm?”

“I have no other choice. It’s because you’re too disobedient. I just want you to come
back.

Mr. Sniper suddenly laughed. “Well, in that case, I’ll have to pay a visit to the Securities Regulatory Bureau tomorrow.”
Malcolm immediately frowned. “What do you mean?”
The Ford Group engaged in private manipulation of stock prices, resulting in numerous
investors losing everything they had. Tragically, some individuals even resorted to
suicide as a result of these actions. Mr. Ford, have you ever considered the future of
those who have lost their money due to your actions?
This statement sparked a tremendous outcry
Five years ago, there was a significant upheaval in the stocks of Ford Group, resulting in
substantial financial losses for most investors in Herzoslovakia City. This event was a
major occurrence at the time, but Malcolm bribed those who expressed their concerns,
leaving the remaining investors to suffer the consequences.
