"It’s not even a question of favoritism anymore. There really shouldn't be a need to choose.“With Landon, those shareholders can smoothly receive dividends every year. On the other hand, choose Leto... don't even talk about dividends, the company could be driven to bankruptcy.""I just found out that Landon got married recently," said Kane."What? Landon got married?" exclaimed Cyril and Meg in unison.Liz just blinked in surprise.So the car she saw parked outside her workplace had not been her imagination.Landon had picked up Emma."Yes, I heard he married a woman with a child," Kane said coldly. "So he could legally take over the company."Cyril and Meg exchanged shocked glances."Who told you this, Dad?" asked Cyril.Kane snorted, "Who else? Leto of course."A look of disdain came over Kane’s features at the mention of the name. "Grandpa, is Leopold planning to use this banquet to target Landon?" Liz asked."Of course. It’s the perfect opportunity, isn't it?" Kane snorted

Landon laughed after hearing that. "You? Assertive? Fine, be as assertive as you can. Don't worry. Whatever the consequences, I'll handle them."Emma pressed her lips together and agreed, "Alright!"Seeing her determination, Landon secretly laughed to himself. She may have agreed so readily, but she surely could not do it. With her personality, how assertive could she be? He just could not imagine."Does Asher need to go?" Emma asked.She did not want Asher to be exposed to such an unfriendly setting at such a young age, especially with people around Landon who were always scheming. Targeting a child like Asher would be easy for them.Landon shook his head. "No, he doesn't.""Asher will stay home. I'll have the babysitter from the last time watch over him." Landon had made the necessary arrangements and would not leave Asher alone at home.With Asher taken care of, Emma felt at ease. Now that the decision to attend the event with Landon was settled, Emma continued her routine at

"Fried chicken and milkshake?" Liz was astonished. "Emma, I'm inviting you to a grand feast, the kind that costs thousands!"Emma looked at Liz like she was crazy. "What are you planning to eat? Caviar?""It can't be just fried chicken and milkshake. That's just too insincere, isn’t it?" Liz disagreed vehemently.It was because of Emma's advice that she managed to sell two houses. How could she treat Emma to that with the commission she earned?"How is that insincere?" Emma disagreed with Liz. "I checked. It costs 70 or 80 dollars."Besides, you worked hard for that money. Save it and buy something you like. Having some money on hand gives you peace of mind." Emma spoke earnestly.Liz laughed and nodded. "Alright, then. Let's have fried chicken and milkshake for lunch!""Sounds great!" Emma nodded happily.As Liz watched Emma's eyes sparkle with joy, she could not help but worry what if the Stirlings’ elders bullied Emma at the banquet. At that thought, Liz made a decision that

Landon walked into the hall, nodding slightly as he greeted people. That kind of scene was nothing to him, but he was worried about Emma, who was holding his arm. He was afraid something might happen to her. With so many people around, would she be too nervous to move?If something did happen, no one would dare say anything with him there, but if anyone so much so as gave her a strange look… Emma, with her sensitive nature, might take it to heart and get upset. At that moment, Landon started to regret bringing her along. He kept an eye on Emma out of the corner of his eye, ready to step in if she seemed distressed.To his surprise, Emma handled it all remarkably well. She walked beside him confidently, maintaining a graceful smile. No matter who approached them or their intentions, Emma was not shy or afraid.Landon had known Emma to be a sensitive and deeply emotional person from their time together, so he was impressed that she could hold her own in that situation. He gained a

Leopold walked out of the private room, and when he saw his youngest son’s frivolous behavior, he shook his head in disbelief. He was so furious he wanted to slap Anthony right there. Could Anthony be more mindful of his image and behavior, especially in a setting like that?"Grandpa." Landon approached with Emma, smiling as he greeted, "We're here. Is there something you'd like to announce?"Landon's attitude instantly made Leopold forget about confronting his son because his eldest grandson infuriated him even more. What did Landon mean by that question? Was he trying to force his hand? Did Landon think he did not dare to say he would not hand over the company to him in the future? Leopold stared deep into Landon’s eyes. He hated being threatened, even if it came from his eldest grandson."Landon, let me tell you something," Leopold said in a serious tone.Landon nodded slowly, seemingly listening to what Leopold had to say.Leopold raised his hand and pointed at Emma. "Di

"Do you have our permission to speak now?" Leopold sneered condescendingly.He may not be able to handle that troublemaker Landon, but he could definitely handle a woman like Emma.Landon frowned. Just as he was about to speak up, Emma chuckled and asked, "Mr. Stirling, are you criticizing me here? Am I not allowed to speak? Who do you think you are, the king?"Landon turned his head in surprise to see Emma with a cold expression and found himself awe-struck."What era are we in now? The days of a monarchy are long gone, Mr. Stirling. Wake up." Emma stared expressionlessly at Leopold, her words sharp and unabashed.Her remarks stunned everyone present. Had she gone mad, speaking to Leopold like that? On the other hand, Emma's boldness amused and impressed Landon as he did not expect it from her. However, he did not intervene. He was curious to see how far she would go. After speaking her mind, Emma felt a little uneasy, unsure of what Landon would think. When Landon did not sa

Landon's wife, Emma, was something else. She was fearless, saying whatever came to mind.They always knew Landon as ruthless and efficient in business. However, when it came to his family, he had always been lenient. Now, it seemed like Emma’s bold move reflected Landon’s true feelings—that he was done with the Stirlings.Kane watched from the side with mixed feelings, while Liz, whom Emma interacted with daily, was stunned. Was that the same gentle Emma she knew at work? She had no idea Emma could be that fierce when crossed, but it was strangely satisfying.Leto, on the other hand, was just a useless guy. To say he was Landon’s cousin was truly embarrassing. "Landon, aren't you going to rein in your wife?" Ruth approached, shielding her son.She glared at Landon begrudgingly. Why should her precious son endure such humiliation?Landon smirked. "Was my wife say wrong?"For years, hasn't your family relied on us to survive?" Landon asked bluntly, leaving Ruth furious and embarr

"Why do you think that?" Leto snapped at Emma, accusing her. "There's no way my grandfather wants Landon back at the company!"After all, if Landon returned, what was left for him? Leto could not allow that to happen, not under any circumstances."Is that so?" Emma asked Leto, "Are you sure about that?""Absolutely!" Leto declared firmly before adding, "My grandfather is running the company just fine, and he's taught me a lot. I've learned everything I need to know."With the two of us managing the company, there's no need to bother Landon," Leto continued, his eyes darting nervously toward Landon, avoiding his grandfather's gaze.He was terrified that Landon might suddenly interject, prompting his grandfather to relent and bring Landon back into the company.What would happen to him then? He had just started taking over some aspects of the company and was not about to give that up."And what about your grandfather's wishes?" Emma pressed, turning her attention to Leopold and fo

“Of course, marriage is about mutual benefit. You treat me well, and I treat you well in return. You help me shoulder life's pressures, and I offer you support. That’s what fosters a stable marriage,” Emma stated matter-of-factly.“It won’t work if one side keeps giving while the other takes without giving anything in return.“And sometimes, it may seem like one side isn’t contributing, but there are always invisible sacrifices being made.“Otherwise, how could any marriage last?” Landon wrapped his arms around Emma and sighed softly. “You know, what I love most about you is your clear understanding of things.“You give me a sense of security,” Landon said candidly. He knew Emma was not the type to overthink things as she was a very reasonable person.“You see, Asher has grown so optimistic and cheerful because of you. Being with you makes me feel incredibly at ease. That’s something money can’t buy.”Emma thought seriously for a moment. “If you need comfort, I feel like ther

Emma froze, her curiosity piqued. “What did you learn?”She was not surprised that Asher had absorbed her lessons as that was her goal in teaching him. But what had Landon learned? “I learned a lot,” Landon replied with a smile. “For example, your attention to detail and patience, your tolerance for others, and your ability to handle situations calmly—”Emma laughed, breaking his train of thought. “Stop, stop, stop! If you keep going, I might start believing I'm some kind of superhero! I’d be even better than you!” “Then I'd really be lacking in self-awareness if I think that,” Landon said as he wrapped his arms around her. “You genuinely possess many admirable qualities—exactly what I need.”“Alright, alright... what you need,” Emma replied casually.Landon gently tapped her shoulder. “Are you brushing me off?”Emma pouted. “You hit me…”Landon hurriedly rubbed her shoulder. “Did it hurt?”He had not even used enough force to swat a fly but hearing Emma say it made him do

People loved to take advantage of a good deal, and after consulting the owner, the manager anticipated such behavior from the customers when he proposed the solution. Besides, both the owner and the manager possessed a broader vision. They understood that they could not let a small financial loss tarnish their restaurant's reputation.The way they handled the incident turned into a great advertising opportunity. Those diners who experienced the situation firsthand became loyal customers. They now had a favorable impression of the restaurant and would be the first to recommend it for future gatherings or family outings. No amount of traditional advertising could rival the power of genuine recommendations from friends and family.Both the restaurant owner and manager knew how to effectively navigate a business crisis. What could have been a damaging situation had transformed into positive publicity due to their prompt action.“Let Daddy explain the specifics of the business
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 495
The restaurant manager politely apologized and thanked them before clearing all the food from the table. Emma smiled. "I really like this restaurant."Landon nodded, recognizing that this was a business that understood customer service. Just then, Emma spotted Asher’s confused expression. "Those dishes we had earlier might have been touched by that lady."If someone used a spoon that others had already used to scoop food for me, would you be pleased by that?" Asher shook his head vigorously. "Not at all!""Exactly! So, the food that might have come into contact with that lady's saliva was removed and destroyed by the restaurant staff," Emma continued. Asher looked concerned at Emma’s words. "That's such a waste!" "It is, but there's no other option," Emma sighed lightly. "If someone were to get sick from eating that food, it would be much worse. That was a terrible mistake that the lady made. "So the restaurant staff wants to make sure that the mistake was dealt with the
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 494
Asher nodded energetically. “Yes!”“Exactly! So, making mistakes isn’t scary, and not knowing things isn’t scary either. The key is to admit it boldly,” Emma explained.“When we make a mistake, we correct it. If we don’t know something, and it doesn’t affect others, we don’t have to learn it if we don’t want to.“But if it impacts others, we need to learn from it,” she continued.“Just like that lady earlier, she needed to learn not to use shared tongs to serve food. But for something like not wanting to do someone’s makeup, that’s okay, she doesn’t have to learn that.“Shared tongs are necessary for everyone, and they can’t be replaced. If you don’t want to do someone’s makeup, they can find someone else to help. That service can be substituted.”Asher listened intently and nodded his head. “I understand now, Mommy!”Landon watched the entire exchange and silently marveled at Emma’s approach. She had a knack for using examples from Asher’s own experiences to explain things, m

Asher beamed up at Emma, a sense of pride shining on his face.Emma finally gathered her emotions and turned to Asher. “Mommy makes mistakes too, Ash.”Asher’s smile faltered as confusion washed over him. “Huh?”Emma chuckled softly and ruffled his hair. “It’s not just Mommy who makes mistakes, Daddy does too.”“Really?” Asher exclaimed as he turned to look at Landon. His face was filled with disbelief.Landon smiled, though he was unsure where Emma was going with the conversation. Nevertheless, he cooperated without hesitation. “That’s right. Daddy makes mistakes too.”Asher’s mouth hung open in surprise, clearly shocked to learn that his impressive parents could also err.“Not just your parents,” Emma continued with a smile, “even people who are more capable than us make mistakes.”“Why?” Asher asked, furrowing his brows in confusion. “If everyone makes mistakes, then why do we even learn?”“Because we work hard to make fewer mistakes and try our best not to cause trouble

“What disruption? You’re just bullying your customers because your business is big!” The middle-aged woman exploded in anger. “Don’t think I’m easy to push around. I’m calling the police!”The restaurant manager nodded calmly. “Please do. Since your actions have caused damage to our establishment, we will also hold you accountable for those damages.”“Damages? What damages?” the woman shouted, stomping her feet in frustration.Unfazed, the manager responded evenly, “Because of your actions, we now need to remove and replace all the food at the serving stations. You’ll be responsible for covering those losses.“And if any customers request refunds because of this, we’ll refund them in full. If they ask for compensation, we’ll provide that too. All of these expenses will be your responsibility.”The woman nearly exploded at the manager’s words. “You’re deluded!“Come on, son, we’re leaving!” She yanked her son’s arm, pulling him toward the exit.But the restaurant staff was not ab

Since Asher had decided to eat one piece of cake himself, he chose fewer cakes, worried that he would not be able to finish them.‘Look at that! He’s already learning how to make his own choices,’ Emma thought proudly.Emma followed Asher’s lead, picking up the cakes he wanted. Just as they were about to leave, Asher suddenly grabbed her sleeve.Puzzled, Emma looked down and asked, “What is it, sweetie?”“They’re using tongs to feed each other,” Asher said, frowning in displeasure.Emma glanced over and saw a middle-aged woman holding a pair of tongs, about to feed a cake to her son. The boy, around eight or nine, reached out to take the cake with his hand, but the woman pulled the tongs back and scolded him, “Don’t use your hands! Just open your mouth.”Emma felt her face flush in disbelief. ‘What are they thinking?’ she protested quietly.The woman did not want her son to use his hands, claiming it was dirty, yet she was about to feed him with the tongs that everyone used to

Landon smiled. “I like eating too. Our whole family does. But what I enjoy most is eating with all of you.”Asher quickly agreed, “I’m always happy when I eat with Mommy and Daddy.”The family of three arrived at the buffet. Thankfully, Emma had already reserved a spot using her phone while they were still on the road.They headed straight to a small private room, ordered their food through the app, and waited for the server to bring it.“Mommy…” Asher called as he tugged at Emma’s shirt. “I want some cake.”Emma laughed and put on her sunglasses. “Let’s go get some cake.”Asher beamed with excitement. “Okay!” With one hand he held Emma’s hand tightly, while he swung the other one back and forth enthusiastically. He hurried along, and his wide, gleaming eyes searched eagerly for the cake display ahead.“Mommy, over there!” He spotted the table filled with cakes in an instant.Even though he was thrilled to see the cakes, Asher did not let go of Emma’s hand or rush ahead.
