My Mysterious Husband Chapter 423
"People do love a good spectacle," Emma scoffed.It was not that there were no good people, but the ones who stood around just to watch the drama unfold were always the majority.Let them watch, she thought. Their family did nothing anyway. With her husband handling things, neither she nor their child would be harmed in any way.Emma glanced around but did not see the people she was looking for. Noticing her scanning the room, Landon asked puzzledly. "What are you looking for?"He would help her look if she told him."I'm trying to spot that family from earlier. You think they’ll come looking for us?" Emma asked, a little curious.Even though Landon had gotten a good lawyer, she figured that once those people realized how powerful her husband was, they would come back. Normally, people like that would try to ask for mercy. Some might even shamelessly come over, apologize, and beg for forgiveness."They won’t," Landon said calmly, cutting into his steak with a smile. "Even if t
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 424
Grace was at her wit's end trying to figure out a solution, while Jason was busy contacting anyone he could think of, desperate to get a word with Landon.Only if he could speak with Landon directly would he have a chance to apologize and save his job.“Mom, I’m hungry! I want food!” Their son tugged at her sleeve, demanding.“Honey, we’ll go to the restaurant in a little while. Have a piece of bread for now.” Grace, consumed by her worries, had no time to think about food. She was focused on figuring out how to apologize and keep her husband’s job safe.“Who wants bread?” The little boy grabbed the piece of bread and threw it at his mother’s head. “I want food! I want a real meal!”Then, the boy plopped down on the ground, kicking and screaming in a full-blown tantrum.Already agitated, Jason’s temper flared when he saw his son throwing a fit. “What do you think you’re doing? Get up and eat your bread!”The boy, spoiled and used to having his way at home, had never been lectu

Emma did not swim. She simply sat by the pool, watching Landon and Asher having fun together.Whenever they were outside, Emma always wore her glasses. The lenses were special—they turned into sunglasses in the sun, and regular lenses indoors.Even though she had done a few TV series, she was not famous enough to worry too much about being recognized. However, the glasses were good enough to keep her under the radar.She watched as Asher splashed around, trying his best to swim. The sight of the chubby little boy paddling through the water like a tiny bean was just too adorable for her to handle.Still, she had to admit that Asher was a fast learner. After just a bit of practice, he was already swimming on his own, and Emma was stunned. It seemed her son had a real talent for it.Landon was walking backward in the pool, encouraging Asher to swim toward him, cheering him on every step of the way.Emma was absolutely amazed at how much of a natural her son was. Of course, Asher was

As Emma continued drying his back, she suddenly realized something. She looked up and shot someone a glare. That "someone" smirked smugly, eyes full of mischief, and Emma gave him a playful swat when no one was looking. Seriously, what was up with that guy? He was a grown man, yet he was still trying to seduce her with that. It was as if Landon, of all people, needed to use such tricks.As Asher had recently taken a real interest in swimming, he wanted to practice with Landon every day. Landon had only taught him the basics of the breaststroke at first, but after that, he focused on helping Asher perfect it before moving on.Landon stood in the pool, watching Asher swim, and could not help but smile in approval. The kid had real determination. He was in no rush to learn new strokes until he mastered that one. It seemed he already understood the wisdom of "biting off more than you can chew."Aside from swimming lessons, Landon also took Emma and Asher to explore some local touris
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 427
The little guy pouted, staying silent as he scuffed his feet against the ground, clearly upset.Emma did not say anything right away. She just watched him with a smile. “It’s not wrong to want that toy car because you like it, Ash, but ring tossing takes skill. You either get lucky and land it right away, or you go home and practice until you can win it yourself.“Of course, there’s one more option,” she added. “You could save up and buy it when you have enough.”“Mommy, is it always this hard to get the things we like?” Ash stared at her with his big round eyes, still unhappy. He really wanted that toy car.“To get something you want, you always have to work for it,” Emma said, patting his head gently. “Even the food we eat and the water we drink come from your father’s and my hard-earned money.“Do you remember the house we used to live in?” Emma asked with a smile. “Back then, we only got sunlight briefly each day, right? But now, in our new house, we get warm sunshine all
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 428
Landon was showing Asher how to toss the ring. Of course, it was not something a child could master right away, especially with Asher being so small and not very strong.In the first round, Asher did not manage to land a single ring on a prize. After a couple of times, the rings touched the prizes, but they bounced right off.Asher sighed in disappointment, but Landon was encouraging. “Hey, Ash. You’re making progress! You’re hitting the targets now. Let’s give it another try,” Landon said.With renewed confidence from Landon’s words, Asher tried again for the second and third rounds. He had forgotten all about his previous obsession with the toy car and was now fully immersed in the game, having a blast.By the time they finished the last round, they had managed to land rings on two small toys and a keychain, which was not bad at all!“Mommy, Mommy, look what I won!” Asher proudly held up his prizes for Emma to see.Emma, delighted, took the prizes and said, “Wow, Ash! You’re
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 429
Landon chuckled as he looked at Emma. The more time he spent with her, the deeper his feelings for her grew. Without saying a word, he held Emma’s hand tightly, not wanting to let go.Once Ash had his fill, he took each of his parents’ hands and bounced along ahead of them.“Mommy, look at that ice cream…” Asher’s attention was immediately drawn to the colorful array of ice cream at a nearby stand. He stared longingly after he spoke.Emma laughed and asked, “Do you still have room for more?”Asher had eaten quite a bit that evening.“Let me check your tummy.” Emma crouched down and patted Asher’s belly. It was full and round, so clearly, he was not just full; he was stuffed.“Mommy, I just want to try a few bites.” Asher looked up at her with big, hopeful eyes.“Alright. If I get it, you can have just a couple of bites. Any more and your tummy might hurt,” Emma said with a smile.“If you still want some, we can come back tomorrow,” Emma suggested.Ash nodded obediently. “O
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 430
That way, Asher would definitely remember it.Holding the ice cream, Emma stood up and took a bite. Just as she was about to have another, Landon suddenly snatched it away from her.Emma looked at Landon in surprise. He grinned and said, “Didn’t you think of me for these things? I can eat it too, you know.” “It’s not that great,” Emma reminded him.Landon raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t we supposed to share these things as a family?”Emma grinned, clearly delighted, and replied, “You’re welcome to it.”Her playful response made Landon laugh. She was really starting to loosen up lately. Still, he wanted Emma to know he should be the first person she turned to for things like that.“Next time something like this happens, come to me first,” Landon warned. “Otherwise, I might just…”“Oh? What will you do?” Emma teased.“I might get angry!” Landon threatened, though his threat had little effect and only made Emma laugh more.Asher looked at his parents, confused by their strange con

“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
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 493
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.
