By the time Emily went to see Allen Parker, the statement denying the relationship had already been released.The statement was clear, directly denying any relationship between Lucas and Emily.“The makeup artist Emily is married and pregnant. She and Lucas are just colleagues. Please do not speculate.”Reading the last line of the statement, Emily finally felt relieved.Allen Parker, tapping the table with a light chuckle, said, “There's nothing to worry about anymore. I've already instructed the media, and those rumors will be removed soon. Lucas is young and didn't consider the consequences of his actions, but I'll remind him.”Feeling at ease, Emily sighed, “Actually, Amanda wanted to come and get me, but there were too many people, and she couldn't get through. Given the urgency, Lucas came over himself, so we can’t blame him. Anyway, thank you, boss.”“You don't need to thank me. For Mr. Satan, I will always protect you.”Emily said, “Boss, I want to resign.”Allen Parker wasn’t

Elderly people often have a deep fondness for children. Carol, Emily’s former mother-in-law, was one such person, and Meggie is another. However, there is a significant difference between them.Carol’s longing for a grandson stemmed primarily from her focus on an heir. The Reed family had only one son, Nathan, and Carol wanted him to marry quickly and preferably have a son. To her, a daughter-in-law was merely a means to produce children.Meggie, on the other hand, was different. Emily could tell she genuinely loved Mr. Satan. Because of this affection, Meggie especially hoped he would find a wife and have children. In terms of motivation, Meggie was undoubtedly more respectable.Emily loved being around Meggie. Every time she saw her, she felt a sense of home, something she had never experienced in over twenty years.Meggie said to her, “Emily, you should eat more. Our chef is particularly good at making braised bamboo shoots. Give it a try.”Emily quickly smiled and thanked her, “Su

“I wouldn't dare!” Mandy's gaze flickered over Emily's belly. “I just heard some very interesting news today and thought I’d come ask if you know about it.”“I don’t want to know,” Meggie said dismissively, continuing to eat. “If you want to eat, then shut up and sit down. If not, go back to your place. Jesus doesn't like noise.”Meggie’s words were cold and showed no regard for Mandy, making her very embarrassed.To ease the tension, Bella asked, “Ma’am, are you staying for dinner?”“No, I’m not!” Mandy’s voice became sharp with anger. “Mom, I just came to tell you that you're wrong. This Emily is a scheming little s.lut!”“Are you done? Get out of here!” Meggie was furious, slamming her bowl down so hard it shattered near Mandy’s feet, making her jump back.Meggie, still angry, grabbed a fork and threw it at her. “You’ve been hanging out with that Grace for too long! You didn’t learn anything good but picked up all her vile, sneaky ways. But unlike her, you don’t have the brains. Yo

Mr. Satan seemed to be in a particularly good mood.Emily guessed that the matter he mentioned was almost resolved, which made him more relaxed. Moreover, they had limited time together recently, and whenever possible, he would find a way to talk to her alone.He was considerate, though sometimes, in moments of passion, he found it hard to control himself. He always maintained enough restraint, never touching her belly. But his kisses were so intense that they left her breathless sometimes.Today was no different.After leaving the Norman family, Mr. Satan kissed her passionately in the car before reluctantly letting her go back to the Morgan family.When Emily walked in, her lips were red and swollen.In the living room, Herry was alone, watching TV with a bowl of popcorn.Emily glanced at the screen; it was a popular variety show where celebrities were playing games.Herry laughed out loud, scattering popcorn all over the floor.Emily frowned slightly.“I’ll clean it up myself later

The next morning, Emily received a call from Nathan.Nathan's voice was rough and slightly slurred, likely the aftereffects of a hangover."Emily, let's get divorced."She had heard these words from him six months ago. Back then, Nathan had looked down on her, and it was the beginning of the worst time in her life. She was thrown out of her home by her husband and mother-in-law, left to wander the streets with nowhere to go.Who could have guessed that hearing these words again six months later would bring her a sense of relief?Emily agreed, "Okay, I'll meet you at the city hall."Nathan didn't say another word and hung up.Because Mr. Satan had already told her about this last night, Emily was up early. After hanging up the phone, she quickly went downstairs.Grace was in the living room. She glanced at Emily, "Heading out so early? Going to meet Vincent?"There was a hint of probing in her tone.Emily gave her a broad smile. "Yes. Do you want to date him too?"Grace's face instantl

Nathan's breath still reeked of alcohol, and he swayed unsteadily. A passing pedestrian lightly bumped into him, causing Nathan to almost fall, only to be barely caught by a nearby tree.Squinting against the light, Nathan looked at Emily, "Emily, are you happy to see me like this?"Emily bit her lip, her tone icy, "It is meaningless. Let's get the divorce done."Nathan laughed bitterly, leaning against the tree and slowly squatting down, muttering, "It's all my fault. If I had cherished you, if I hadn't listened to my mother... Emily, would we still be together?""No 'ifs,'" Mr. Satan grabbed Nathan by the collar and lifted him. "Let's go."For the first time in six months, Emily found herself sitting next to Nathan again.The clerk gave them a cursory glance and asked, "Are you both sure about this? Once the divorce is finalized, there's no going back. You're still young, and it's normal to have conflicts...""Thank you, but we won't regret it," Emily said. "This is our divorce agre

Satan was clearly upset.Though he drove smoothly, Emily knew he was suppressing something.Maybe his face under the mask really troubled him.But in moments like these, words of comfort felt empty.Emily opened her mouth, but in the end, said nothing. They drove in silence until Satan took her back to the Norman family.Meggie was delighted to see them. "Bella, ask the chefs to prepare some good food."Bella smiled, "I saw Vincent's car outside earlier, so I already informed them. The food should be ready soon.""Great. Emily probably didn't eat well at the Morgan family, so we need to make sure she gets good nutrition... Vincent, why are you so quiet?"Satan had been silent the whole way. "Grandma, you've done everything for me. What's left for me to do?"Meggie laughed heartily, "Are you jealous? I'm just looking out for Emily, hoping you two will be happy. By the way, I'm meeting a famous Gypsy in a few days. She is good at predicting marriages. Emily, will you come with me?"Emil

Emily blushed again at the comment.Meggie laughed heartily, "You're not even married yet, and you're already thinking of having Emily help manage your siblings? If you weren't my grandson, I'd throw you out for bullying our Emily."With Bryden and Janet's antics, along with Meggie's jokes, Satan's mood gradually lifted.He chuckled, "Grandma, you're being too biased. Anyone who didn't know our family would think Emily was your real granddaughter, and I'm just the grandson-in-law.""Vincent is right, Meggie. You shouldn't be so biased," Mandy suddenly interjected.The atmosphere turned awkward with her comment.Meggie frowned, "Mandy, you seem to have something on your mind today."Mandy smiled faintly, "How would I dare?""If you have something to say, just say it. We're family. I don't have the energy to guess your thoughts."Just then, Alex walked in.He seemed to have just returned from work, dressed in a black suit, with a slight hint of fatigue at the corners of his eyes.
