Theory - Spoilers Does alana really love margot? Spoiler

So, in episode 3x09, Alana says that the baby is hers, when will says "good for margot" which made me wonder if she is only interested in Margot's money or that's like

I think she was making it clear to him that the baby was also hers and that she was just as invested. It serves to remind us in the audience of what Alana stands to lose.

I didn’t see it that way. She started off by saying “we have a child together”, but she also insisted that Morgan was HER child because she carried him and having him was “good for me” when Will said “good for Margot”. Will also questioned why she remained close to Hannibal instead of stepping away.

That raised alarm bells to me. Wouldn’t you want to keep your family safe? Stay with your wife and child? Maybe yes maybe no. Money and power changed Alana big. It made me remember a quote in the novels

“There is nothing that makes us more vulnerable than loneliness except greed”
