“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

Just then, Emma noticed an ice cream stand nearby. Without hesitation, she bought two cones and snapped a quick photo, posting it online with the caption: [Buy one, get one free. What a deal!]Fans quickly picked up on the post and started laughing, leaving comments like, [Even the goddess loves a good bargain?][Goddess, who’s the other one for?]Surprised by the question, Emma replied, [Isn’t buy-one-get-one-free meant for me to eat both? One ice cream is never enough!]This sent her fans into fits of laughter. [The goddess speaks our minds!][Same world, same move. Buy-one-get-one means all for me!]As she enjoyed her ice cream, Emma continued chatting and joking with her fans online. As for the negative comments from trolls, she simply ignored them. People who sought attention online were not worth her time. The more one engaged with them, the more arrogant they became, especially when no one in real life paid them any attention.Finishing her ice cream, Emma arrived at

As soon as Landon walked through the door, he barely had time to steady himself before he was suddenly wrapped in a tight embrace. He felt something soft and warm land on his cheek.Landon blinked in surprise, just as Emma's playful voice rang in his ear, “I kissed you first.“I win!” Emma added triumphantly.Landon was stunned. When did this become a competition? More importantly, when did it even start? Why was he, as one of the participants, only finding out about it now?The confusion in his eyes made Emma burst out laughing. “We talked about it during our video call, remember? I totally got the first kiss!”He was at a loss for words. Did Emma always focus on such random things?“I thought after being away filming for so long, you’d come home and immediately check if any other woman had been around me,” Landon said, thinking this would be a more typical wife reaction.Emma clung to him, snorting. “Do you think I’m dumb? You've seen plenty of women, yet you chose to be wit

Landon flashed a charming smile. "Emma, how about you freshen up? I'll bring you your food.""No need. I'll come out and eat," Emma replied, her expression firm.She was not that fragile, after all. Sure, she was just a bit worn out, but overall, Landon had been pretty gentle. Still, she was exhausted.After washing up, Emma headed to the dining room. When she saw the spread, she looked at Landon curiously. "Did you call in the chef?""Yeah." Landon nodded with a smile. "I've kept everything warm, so it's ready whenever you are."His thoughtfulness softened Emma a little. Given how considerate he had been, maybe she could let last night’s events slide.“Emma…”“What are you doing?” Emma quickly raised her hand to block Landon as he tried to get closer.Landon could not help but chuckle at Emma's defensive stance. "Relax, I'm not doing anything. You just have something in your hair."Emma hesitated before lowering her hand, watching as Landon gently plucked a small tuft of fu

“I missed you too, Ash,” Emma said with a smile, picking up her little boy and giving him a playful kiss on his chubby cheek. Asher, happy and giggling, returned the kiss with one of his own on his mom’s cheek. Then, with a sweet, innocent voice, he said, “Mommy, Daddy missed you too.”Emma paused, surprised, and turned to look at Landon.Landon, keeping a straight face, nodded and said, “Asher's right. I missed you a lot, too.”Emma’s lips twitched. Was she overthinking things?Quickly, Asher chimed in, “Mommy hasn’t kissed Daddy yet!”Emma shot a glare at Landon. What on earth had he been teaching their son while she was away?Landon met Emma’s gaze with an innocent expression. “Mom and Dad being affectionate is a sign of love and happiness.“We’re a happy family, so of course, we should be affectionate.”Emma stared at Landon, completely unfazed by his calm delivery. A thought popped into her head. If she had not kissed him yesterday, would he have taken the initiati

"Because Mommy is going to get busier soon, going out often for work and filming. So, from now on, Asher will stay in this room with Daddy and Mommy. That way, when Mommy isn't home and away at work, Daddy can take good care of you," Emma patiently explained.“Will Mommy stay here too?” Asher tilted his head, full of curiosity.“Yeah,” Emma replied with a soft laugh.“Then when is Mommy going on another work trip?” Asher still missed his mom after not seeing her for so long.“Mommy will be home for a while now,” Emma reassured him, missing her little boy just as much.“How about we go out this weekend for some fun?” Emma suggested, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her son.“Yeah!” Asher was over the moon at the idea of an outing. “Mommy, where are we going to play?”“How about I let you decide?” Emma said, passing the choice to Asher.The little guy took it seriously this time. “I’ll have to think about it.”“Take your time, Ash. But first, let’s have dinner,” Emma said w

“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.
