My Mysterious Husband Chapter 274
Landon’s excitement lifted Emma’s spirits. Initially, she had felt a bit anxious about whether he would like the gift. However, seeing his reaction now, Emma felt that buying the gift was absolutely worth it just to see him so happy. It felt wonderful.Landon took out the tie, examined it closely, and immediately stood up to go to the mirror. He held it to his neck and said, “It looks great.”Landon’s every movement clearly showed just how much he liked the gift. Emma watched him with a sweet smile that spread across her face.She realized why she was so happy. It was because her gift made the recipient happy and she received positive feedback—a far cry from the times she had given gifts that were met with criticism and complaints about wasted money.Emma thought back and realized that anything she gave her mother would be nitpicked and criticized. She could not understand why her mother had to be so harsh or why putting her down seemed to bring her such satisfaction.However, s

“Scammers?” Landon frowned in confusion. “Are there scammers in the mall? Is it one of those beauty salons that lure people in with free offers and then pressure them into spending?” He knew that some businesses engaged in shady practices like that. His company’s mall had strict rules against such tactics. Any business caught trying to deceive customers in that way had their lease terminated immediately, and they had to pay compensation.Landon wondered if that was the kind of scam Emma had encountered. If it was some new trick, he would inform the mall’s management so they could be on the lookout.“The mall isn’t involved,” Emma said with a smile, shaking her head. “It’s a scammer pretending to be a talent scout.”“A talent scout?” Landon was taken aback.Emma chuckled. “Isn’t it interesting? You’d think talent scouts would be a thing of the past by now.“Nowadays, everyone’s trying to get noticed. There are so many ways to showcase talent, like on videos or social media channe

Landon spoke directly, stating his position. “My wife received a business card from you at the mall yesterday, mentioning a role that might be suitable for her.”The voice on the other end immediately responded, “Yes, that’s right. Sir, I assure you I’m not a scammer. I am–”“Famous producer Yannick Hart,” Landon interrupted. “I understand you’re currently working on a TV series.”“That’s correct,” Yannick replied with a smile. “It seems you know a bit about me, so you must realize I’m not a fraud. I’m wondering if your wife might be interested in coming in for an audition?”“What role are you considering for my wife?” Landon asked.Yannick raised an eyebrow slightly. The way Landon spoke was quite intriguing. He was not just another overly excited person or someone trying to put on airs; instead, he sounded composed and worldly.“Well,” Yannick began, “we’re producing a historical piece and need someone to play a mysterious and aloof sage.” As soon as Yannick finished speaking

“Mr. Landon?” Yannick looked at Landon, somewhat uncertain.Not long ago, Stirling Group’s affairs had been quite the sensation online. Everyone had been glued to the drama, and naturally, the identity of Stirling Group’s final victor, Landon, had been uncovered by netizens. After all, Landon had participated in numerous business events. Even though he had never publicly shared personal photos, there were always pictures from those events—albeit often distant or blurry due to his low profile.Yannick, a well-known producer, knew quite a few big names in the business world and had seen Landon from a distance a few years ago. However, he still recognized the man.Landon nodded slightly. After shaking hands, they both sat down.Yannick could not help but smile wryly. “I never expected that the right person I found would be your wife, Mr. Landon.”“What’s the script and what kind of role are we talking about?” Landon asked.“It’s like this…” Yannick explained the details to Landon.
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 278
With Emma, Landon was always upfront and honest, never hiding anything.“However, Yannick has worked on many film and television projects. He’s a professional in this field, so if he sees potential in you and thinks you’re right for a particular role, there must be a reason for it,” he said.“You can go for the audition either tomorrow or the day after. What do you think? Are you interested?” Landon asked, having said everything he needed to.“I think it sounds like fun. If you want to go, go for it. If not, that’s fine too. Your bakery is doing really well. There’s no need to force yourself into something you don’t enjoy.”Noticing that Emma still looked shocked, Landon started to worry. He wondered if maybe Emma was not interested in acting.However, Emma suddenly burst into laughter, feeling touched. “You went through all this trouble just for a business card and even met with the producer?”“Uh, yes,” Landon responded instinctively. Then, when he realized what he said, he a

More importantly, Emma had given Asher a heads-up about the potential for failure. Emma’s approach to parenting was truly impressive. Watching from the side, Landon felt lucky that he had chosen Emma on that blind date. After Emma had a detailed conversation with Asher about the audition, the little guy had a ton of questions, some of which Emma knew the answers to, and some she did not. However, she took it all in stride, diligently jotting down notes on her phone. “I’ll ask about it when I go, but some questions might get answered, and some might not. For the ones they can’t answer, let’s read up and figure them out ourselves, okay?”Landon watched as Emma skillfully guided Asher’s curiosity toward learning. He could not help but smile quietly. Emma had a real knack for turning passive learning into active engagement, making the process interesting for Asher. That was what truly motivated learning.Landon knew without a doubt that Asher’s development was largely due to Emma’s

Emma’s eyes crinkled with a smile, and she was genuinely enjoying the moment.The next day, Landon told Emma to stay home while he dropped Asher off at preschool. When the time was right, he drove Emma to her audition. As they were driving, Landon glanced over and asked, “Why are you staring at me like that?”“I’m just happy,” Emma replied, her smile never leaving her face. It was clear she was extremely content.“Why are you so happy?” Landon asked, finding it strange.Emma grinned and said, “Because you’re taking me to my audition.”Landon was momentarily taken aback, and a twinge of sadness tugged at his heart. Emma, however, was blissfully unaware of Landon’s emotions and continued cheerfully, “Honestly, I’m a bit nervous.“I’m really glad you’re here with me,” Emma said, a bit embarrassed. “Actually, I’m quite shy and have social anxiety.”As she spoke more, Emma grew a bit awkward. “Even though I seem outgoing and chatty with strangers, it’s all an act. I try to mask
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 281
"Alright," Emma nodded.She was nervous, but since she was already here, she was determined to give it her all.Landon sat nearby. His expression was calm, though his heart was racing. He had no idea what scene Emma was going to perform, let alone if she could pull it off.However, whether she succeeded was not the main issue—he was more worried about her confidence being shattered. He glanced at Yannick. They had agreed that even if things did not go well, Yannick would offer encouragement and positive feedback. If worse came to worst, Landon was prepared to pay whatever it took to secure a spot for Emma in the production. He had already made up his mind. There was no way he would let Emma leave feeling discouraged.Landon’s eyes were fixed on Emma as she stood quietly, eyes closed, perhaps preparing herself emotionally. Then, she slowly opened her eyes.The moment Emma's eyes opened, Landon felt his scalp tingle. What was this expression? How could Emma have such a look

“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.
