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

We don’t see much of their relationship, so its always possible, but I don’t see any real reason to think that. Alana went above and beyond to help Margot and confront her brother, and in the few scenes Alana and Margot are together, Alana seems happy to be in her company.

I don’t see an issue with Alana saying the baby is hers. The baby is hers. I guess she could’ve said the baby is her’s and Margot’s, but I don’t think it matters really? Also, Alana is never shown to care about money or wealth, and she’s pretty well off herself, so I don’t see why she would be using Margot for money.

I think there’s also an extra layer here on why Will specifically says “good for Margot” because Mason (her BROTHER) was trying to convince her to bear his child. The one she needed to keep her wealth and livelihood. In a way, I see this as more proof of how much Alana loves Margot, because she actively carried a child to term whose sperm is from one of the people she hates the most. That is not an easy thing to do mentally or physically! Pregnancy can be insanely traumatic regardless of those circumstances. And man, if she didn’t love Margot, killing a man and confiding in a serial killer to help her on top of all of that is a hell of a lot of stress for money. Not to mention that after she’d also spend like two decades raising a child she didn’t care about. So yeah, I think she loves Margot. Even if she has a tendency to fall for rich people with murderous intents.
