My Mysterious Husband Chapter 432
Emma looked down and noticed Asher's peculiar behavior. "What's going on, Asher?" She asked, puzzled."Nothing, Mommy!" Asher quickly replied.Emma glanced at them but did not press further. If her son and husband had their little secrets, so be it. It was only natural for a boy to be closer to his dad. After all, there were many things between men that, as a mom, she could not fully replace.Since Landon had come into their lives, Asher was noticeably more cheerful. Boys could learn a lot about being a man from their fathers.A few days after the family returned home, Emma went back to work on set. With Asher’s kindergarten on break, he started going to the office with his dad. While Landon worked, Asher stayed in his office, reading or playing with his toys. He enjoyed these days of going to work with his dad."Asher, come over here and take a look at this," Landon called out suddenly, waving him over.Curious, Asher ran over. "What is it, Daddy?"Landon lifted Asher o

"Asher, tell me, if one of your classmates had parents who acted like that, being all unreasonable, would you still want to play with that classmate?" Landon asked with a smile.Asher shook his head vigorously, like a little bobblehead. "No way."Landon was pleased. Good, the little guy knew how to avoid trouble and stay away from bad influences."So, the people who work with that lady’s kids or go to school with her grandkids will probably stop hanging out with them."Now, imagine this. If her grandkid was isolated, with no one to play with, don’t you think he’d throw a fit when he gets home?"And if her son’s coworkers avoid him, or he even loses his job, what do you think will happen? Won’t he get angry at his mom?"Asher thought it over carefully before grabbing Landon’s arm excitedly. "Daddy, Daddy, they’ll definitely be mad at her!""Exactly," Landon chuckled. "And that way, they’ll handle the problem in their own family."This way, that woman will understand what her act

Landon chuckled and said, “It’s simple. You find someone with the skills to talk her into it and then you pay her.“On one hand, she’ll feel like she did nothing wrong, and on the other, she gets paid. With that, it’ll be easy for her to sign off and agree to let us use the video however we want.”Asher was listening wide-eyed and mouth agape. His dad was amazing.“The key is that in her mind, she thinks she didn’t do anything wrong. Plus, she gets money out of it. For us, we’re simply buying the rights to use the video.” He smiled and gently ruffled Asher’s hair.“Got it, Ash?”Asher swallowed hard. “Daddy, what do you call that?”He thought it was so cool.One could really do things like that?“This is what we call the art of persuasion,” Landon said, amused. “Do you want to learn?”“Yeah!” Asher replied enthusiastically, without hesitation.“If you want to learn, I’ll teach you.” Landon was willing to teach his son anything. Though he still warned, “But remember, don’t t

“We can go watch, but they’re going to argue, and it’ll get pretty intense. Are you sure you won’t get scared if you’re nearby?” Landon asked with a smile.“They’re going to shout really, really loud,” he warned, giving Asher a heads-up so he would not be taken by surprise.That was the last thing Landon wanted. If Asher got scared, Landon would feel terrible.Asher thought about it seriously for a moment, then nodded firmly.“Daddy, I won’t be scared. I’ve got you to protect me!” Asher said with confidence.“And…” Asher pursed his lips, making up his mind before he continued. “I’m going to work hard and get stronger so I can protect Mommy in the future.”Landon felt both proud of his son’s determination and a little bit jealous. “So, Asher, you’re only going to protect Mommy? What about Daddy?”Asher furrowed his brows, clearly confused. “But Daddy, you’re super strong!”Landon got it. His son thought he did not need protecting because he was already tough enough. Just as La

The next day, Landon took Asher to a high-end neighborhood. Naturally, Landon would not take Asher anywhere nearby.It would be bad if that family recognized them.They sat in a park gazebo, waiting for news.Landon pulled out his phone and connected it to a pair of earbuds. He handed one to Asher and put the other in his own ear. “Asher, we’ll watch from here.”Landon had already arranged for someone to video call from the other side, giving them a live feed.Asher immediately recognized the boy who had thrown a ball at his sandcastle. “Daddy.”The little guy knew he could not say it out loud, especially since there were others nearby.His dad had told him that some of the things they did could not be shared with others.It was a secret only the two of them knew.Landon gave a slight nod, confirming Asher’s observation.Asher knew he had not made a mistake. He kept watching closely.On the other side, movers were loading everything onto a truck. After that, the family of th

Landon spent a few days with the little guy, taking some time off to have fun before they flew back home.When Emma called via video chat from her filming set, Landon filled her in on what had happened.Emma was speechless for a moment.She never imagined that Landon would actually do something like that.“You took Asher to see that?” Emma asked, clearly puzzled.Landon awkwardly scratched his cheek with his index finger. “That kid threw a ball at our son’s sandcastle. Asher worked so hard on that castle. There had to be some kind of consequence, right?“I’m trying to teach him that when you make a mistake, there’s a price to pay.”Landon’s voice gained confidence the more he spoke. “I figured, no matter how much we explain it, nothing’s clearer than letting Asher see it for himself. Don’t you agree?”Emma stared at Landon, who was grinning at the screen, unsure what to say.She tilted her head slightly, thinking. “You weren’t always like this.”Landon blinked. “What do you m
My Mysterious Husband Chapter 438
“How am I supposed to explain this to Asher?” Landon was genuinely at a loss. When it came to children, he always felt a bit unsure, worried that one wrong move could misguide Asher for life.“You still have access to footage of them, right? Get some clips and show them to Asher…” Emma began suggesting ideas. After all, for Landon, these things were easy to arrange.If it were her, she would not have that kind of ability. Fortunately, Landon did, which made everything much more convenient.Landon listened attentively, even pulling out a little notebook to jot down her advice, like a student diligently taking notes in class. Whenever he did not fully understand something, he would ask for clarification.Once Emma was done, Landon even practiced explaining it to her, going through different scenarios to make sure everything was perfect. It took more than half an hour to sort everything out.“Alright, I think I’ve got it now,” Landon said, closing his notebook with a relieved smile

She was wrong. She should never have doubted him! Landon had planned everything from the start! First, he made her feel guilty, then he suggested visiting her on set. Once his trap had been set, he always managed to get his way. "Landon!" Emma growled through gritted teeth. "You really use all your tricks on me, don't you?" She wanted to strangle him! Landon glanced at her with a wounded look. "Is it wrong to miss you? What tricks? If you really think I’m scheming, then sure. I miss you so much it hurts." Emma paused, defeated. She held her forehead and spoke in a low voice, "You win." She was starting to realize just how far apart they were in this game. She had always known her limits, and it was becoming clear that she was no match for Landon’s tactics. One move from him, and her defenses crumbled. "Emma, we’re married. There's no winning or losing here. I’m just a poor man who misses his wife so much that I can’t sleep at night..." "Stop it!" Emma qu

“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

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.
