My Mysterious Husband Chapter 364
Emma was not interested in becoming a celebrity; she just wanted to focus on her acting. Landon did not plan on staying up late, but by the time he scrolled through all the online posts about Emma’s character, it was already past 1 a.m. Thus, he reluctantly put his phone down and closed his eyes for some sleep.The next day at the office, he still felt tired. The morning coffee had not kicked in yet, and it had been a while since he had stayed up that late. He was not used to it anymore. Despite the exhaustion, he was still buzzing with excitement, especially when he thought about Emma’s role from the previous night. She had been so stunning that it took his breath away."That character last night was gorgeous and elegant,” someone commented."Is she new? I don’t think I’ve seen her before," another voice chimed in."Is she really a rookie? She acted so well! That look she gave—it made my heart skip a beat.""But there wasn’t much screen time for her."A few employees were ch

“What’s up?” Landon rubbed his temples. He felt much better after a short nap during lunch. Clearly, staying up too late was not doing his productivity any favors.“I heard something while I was having lunch,” Calvin said while looking at Landon with a complicated expression.Landon stayed silent, giving Calvin a look that said, ‘Just spit it out already.’“One of the employees mentioned that when they got on the elevator this morning, someone was talking about last night’s TV show,” Calvin said.He found the situation so surreal that he had to come over and confirm what he had heard.“That was me.” Landon immediately knew what Calvin was getting at, so he did not make Calvin beat around the bush and simply admitted it. “Emma made her first appearance last night. She did an amazing job. Did you watch it?” Landon asked eagerly, as if Calvin had missed out on a fortune by not watching it.Calvin was at a loss for words. Did Landon think he had nothing better to do than watch TV

Calvin let out a heavy sigh. “If you’re happy with it, then fine. I just think it’s a shame.”Landon chuckled. He knew Calvin had come to terms with things. “You’ve never spent time with Emma. If you had, you’d realize I’m the one who lucked out.”Calvin gave Landon a blank look. “Let’s not get into that.”He could not help but believe Landon was too wrapped up in things to see the full picture. However, it did not really matter because Landon could afford to make mistakes.“About that thing you mentioned last time–” Calvin began, but Landon cut him off mid-sentence.“Wait, you actually came here for business?” Landon asked, surprised.Calvin was momentarily speechless. “What? You think I’m here just to chat about office gossip?”Did Landon really think he had that much free time?With a grin, Landon replied, “Well, with how well Emma’s been performing on screen lately…”Calvin sighed and shook his head. “Let’s stick to business, alright?”He just could not handle a lovesic

Emma furrowed her brow slightly. “It’s almost midnight. Why aren’t you asleep yet? Don’t you have work tomorrow?” Emma disapproved of staying up late, especially since Landon was juggling taking care of their child and working. Staying up late like that was bad for his health.“I was waiting for your call,” Landon said, leaving Emma at a loss for words.Feeling a bit shy, she bit her lip and softened her tone. “Well, you shouldn’t stay up so late.“I can talk to you tomorrow. You don’t have to wait up for me tonight.” Emma coaxed softly, “Alright, I see you’re tired. Go to sleep now.”Landon nodded slightly and asked, “How’s everything over there?”“Everything’s good, really,” Emma replied easily.“Okay, I’m glad to hear that. I’m heading to bed now. You get some rest too, and we’ll talk tomorrow,” Landon said before ending the video call. He did not want to keep Emma up any longer after her long day on set.The next morning, Emma had a relaxed schedule with filming starting

“I understand. I’ll give it another try,” the extra said with an apologetic smile.Emma nodded and turned to Ricky, calling out, “Ricky, we’re ready.”“Okay, let’s go again,” Ricky responded, and the crew quickly got ready to start the scene.This time, they got it in one take. When Ricky called “cut,” the extra was overjoyed, repeatedly thanking Emma.Emma smiled and waved her hand. “No need to thank me. I was just as nervous when I started acting, but you get used to it.”With her scenes for the day wrapped up, Emma thanked Ricky and headed home. As soon as she arrived at her place, her smile faded. She urgently called Penny, “Help me with these wounds.”Looking pale with concern, Penny asked, “Did you hurt yourself earlier? Why didn’t you say anything?”Penny panicked to get the first-aid kit, and by the time she returned, Emma had exposed her injuries. The sight nearly made Penny faint. Emma’s arms and legs were covered in scrapes from the repeated falls.“Why didn’t you

“That’s great to hear from you, the director,” Emma said with a smile.After a few more words of encouragement, Ricky left.“Did you see that, Emma? Ricky really believes in you!” Penny said excitedly.“I did,” Emma replied with a grin. “I’ve got another shoot tomorrow, so I’ll take it easy tonight.”Penny nodded, tidied up, and then left.After dinner, Emma video-called her son and chatted with him for a while. Once it was just Landon on the other end of the line, she could not wait to share the good news. “Ricky said my career is going to take off.”Seeing Emma seeking praise, Landon’s lips curled into a slight smile. “That’s great.”“You don’t seem too excited. What’s wrong?” Emma asked when she noticed Landon’s mood.Landon rubbed his forehead and said, “Emma, is acting really that easy for you?”Emma instinctively replied, “It’s not that tough.”After her answer, she noticed that Landon was silent, just staring at her intently, and it made her feel a bit uneasy. She

"You must be exhausted from working so hard. You need to take a break too.” Emma’s soft, soothing voice made Landon feel warm and comforted."You’re thinking ahead," Landon said with a smile. "Are you worried about me getting tired?""What’s so surprising about that? Everyone gets tired. Even robots need maintenance and oiling from time to time," Emma replied with a pout."And besides, I’m earning enough to support us. You don’t have to carry all the burdens on your own," Emma added, her unspoken concern clear to Landon.He understood her worry that something might go wrong with his company and he might not have a fallback plan. The realization made Landon smile even more. “Emma, no one has ever cared this much to worry about Stirling Group and think about providing me a safety net.”Seeing that Landon had understood her, Emma admitted, “Not everything is smooth sailing. You know well that many big corporations have collapsed. I might not be able to provide a big safety net, b

Landon chuckled as the call ended, a smile of pure happiness spreading across his face. He was used to people flattering him all the time, but it was rare for someone to care so genuinely about him and think of his well-being the way Emma did. Emma was still so fragile, yet she was already doing her best to plan for him. This feeling was new to him. It was strange, but in the best way possible. Every day he spent with her made him like her even more.Emma did not have time to dwell on her shyness. She went to bed early to make sure she was well-rested for the next day of shooting. The production was tough, but thankfully, Emma did not have too many scenes, so she managed to push through.In between scenes, she drank herbal remedies non-stop to keep herself from getting heatstroke. Many of her co-stars were not so lucky and ended up getting sick from the heat. However, that was just how filming was. One had to match the season in the script, no matter what the real weath

“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.
