Meggie was trembling with anger, "Mandy, you..."

"Mom, I am Alex's wife, the lady of the Norman family. You just said it yourself, I am Vincent's mother, so I cannot ignore his marriage. This Emily is a bad person. She's already married and yet she's gotten involved with Vincent. She's eyeing the wealth of our Norman family. Such scheming women cannot marry into our family! Even if you hate me now, for the future of the Norman family, I must stop this!" Mandy's impassioned speech left Meggie speechless, only able to gasp for air.

Emily hurried over to pat Meggie's back to calm her down. Bella fetched a pill from the cabinet. "Take this pill."

Meggie swallowed it, and after a few minutes, she felt a bit better.

Alex was getting anxious, "Mom, are you alright?"

Meggie pushed him away, "You take care of your loose-tongued wife, and I'll be just fine!"

Alex stumbled back. Being filial, he continued, "Mom, what Mandy said is not wrong. Emily is not a good person..."

"Don't be so foolish!"

    "Vincent, how could you become like this?" Alex looked at Mr. Satan incredulously. "Mandy is my wife and your mother. How could you...""Dad," Mr. Satan's tone was icy. "You defend your wife, and I defend mine. If your wife can't be slandered, can mine be slandered?"Alex was momentarily speechless. "Vincent, Why do you like Emily? Do you know she's been married before?""Who said she's been married?" Mr. Satan chuckled coldly. "You haven't even verified the source of the news, let alone its authenticity. You shouldn't hastily jump to conclusions. This is something you taught me when I was starting out in business. Have you forgotten?"Mr. Satan's words finally brought Alex back to his senses.The news that Emily had been married to Nathan came from Mandy, who had shown him the marriage certificate, but he hadn't personally verified it.His gaze slowly shifted towards Mandy.Mandy, angered, said, "Alex, what are you thinking? Do you suspect I'm deliberately framing Emily?""No, Mandy,

    Emily spoke gently and respectfully, which Alex found pleasing."Emily, you're so polite. Looks like Mrs. Morgan taught her daughter well.""I'm not related to Mrs. Morgan by blood. I was raised by my foster father and uncle. Mrs. Morgan is my foster father's ex-wife who later remarried Mr. Morgan."Alex paused, "Oh, I see now...""Yeah, my foster father's not in good health. He's been in hospital since his surgery. I had nowhere else to go. Mr. Morgan works at Taylor Group, his daughter and I are friends, so he let me stay his house."Emily explained her past.She only stated facts, leaving Alex to draw his own conclusions."Grace abandoned her penniless husband and seduced Mr. Morgan. Now she's trying to harm her husband's daughter."Alex frowned deeply, "Mrs. Morgan's quite cunning and lacks moral character. Mr. Morgan seems like a fake gentleman too! They're a despicable couple!"Emily kept her thoughts to herself.Logan and Grace's true faces should be exposed."Since that's the

    Emily had been waiting for so long, and finally, she got a fixed deadline – one week.Emily felt a bit uneasy, but more than that, she felt a sense of relief that the hard times were finally coming to an end.Her belly was already slightly protruding. Fortunately, the weather was cooling down, so she could cover it up with thicker clothes.But when she got home and put on her pajamas, her belly was pretty obvious.Mr. Satan held her affectionately until dawn finally came, and he let her go.Emily had always stuck to her principles, not letting him enter her body, but she didn’t expect that even without s.ex, Mr. Satan had many ways to make her moan. This man!……“Emily, are you thinking about my brother? Your face is all red.” Janet was sitting in front of the vanity, waiting for Emily to do her makeup. But Emily was lost in thought, holding a makeup brush, and her cheeks were getting redder and redder.They stayed together last night, and Janet quickly figured out what was going on.

    The door to the makeup room opened.Janet jumped up in surprise and excitement. “Jackson!”“Yeah,” Jackson frowned, but his gaze was fixed on Emily. “Come with me, I need to talk to you.”Jackson was the same as always. No, now he was even more flamboyant. He had dyed his hair blonde, wore a brown and black leather jacket, studded boots, and had skull earrings, which were a bit scary.Especially with his frowning, impatient look, he still made people feel uneasy.Janet was stunned for a moment, looking back and forth between Jackson and Emily. “You guys... know each other?”Emily explained, “I used to work for him. I was responsible for the makeup of the models at his car show.”“Oh, I see.”Jackson was already getting impatient. He walked past Janet and grabbed Emily's wrist, pulling her out.Emily was startled, stumbling and almost falling, a cold sweat breaking out.“Slow down, I'm pregnant...”Jackson suddenly stopped, his eyes flashing with cold light. “What's going on between yo

    Jackson said, “He got what he deserved. You don’t need to feel sorry for him.”Emily replied, “That’s business. I don’t understand it, and I won’t feel sorry. Everyone walks their own path, and he chose his.”“If you’d thought this way earlier, it would have been better.”There was a knock on the door from outside. It was Amanda’s voice: “Emily, are you in there?”Jackson glared at her. “Who is it?”Emily answered, “Lucas’s agent.”Jackson quipped, “Is she your boss too?”“...Sort of.”“How many bosses do you have, Emily?” Jackson laughed wryly. “Whatever, you’re under Vincent’s spell now, and nothing I say will get through to you. Like you said, it’s my fault for showing up too late. But I want you to remember, you’re not the same as before. When Nathan abandoned you, you were all alone. This time it’s different. If Vincent ever treats you badly, you can always come to me.”Emily smiled, “He treats me very well.”“I hope so. A lifetime is long, and no one can predict what will happen

    Lucas nodded, "Alright, it’s a duo shoot. I can’t film without her. I’ll wait a bit longer."The director wiped the sweat off his forehead, relieved, and went to film other couples.An hour passed.According to the schedule, the morning was for setting up and makeup, with filming officially starting at 2 PM and ending at 10 PM. It was now 4:30 PM, and Barbara still hadn’t arrived.If they continued waiting, they’d be filming until dawn.Amanda returned, surprised. “You haven’t started shooting? Barbara isn’t here yet?”Lucas smiled wryly, “I guess she hasn’t even left her home yet.”Amanda was annoyed. “You have a flight tomorrow morning to another city for work. If we wait any longer, you won’t get any sleep tonight.”Lucas shrugged.“No way, I’m going to find the director.”When she found the director, Amanda immediately erupted.“...Overslept? What do you mean she overslept? First, she says she’s in the parking lot, then she’s on the highway, and now she just woke up? Is this show

    On the way back, Amanda and Emily huddled together, watching a brief clip of the shoot.How should they put it?Lucas’s look today exuded the aura of an exceptional senior from university. With Olivia present, he spoke less and seemed colder, reminiscent of his rock rebel persona on stage.Olivia, on the other hand, truly embodied the look of a cute Cinderella.She was adorable, with a hint of clumsiness, and her eyes were full of Lucas. She perfectly allowed girls to project themselves into her, creating strong resonance.Amanda said, “A superstar and a intern, it sounds like a romantic drama. I think it’s not bad. What do you think, Emily?”From the footage alone, Emily thought it was quite good too.But...She had known Olivia for many years. The Olivia she knew wasn’t like this...Growing up together, Olivia had always played the “protector” role, always helping Emily. The girl in the video didn’t seem like the Olivia she knew.Emily said, “Let’s see the audience’s feedback when t

    The assistant froze, startled.The man in front of him had an extraordinary presence and a tall, impressive stature, clearly not an ordinary person. But he was wearing a white mask, which was quite intimidating."Emily..."Emily smiled apologetically at the assistant. "Sorry, just give him my luggage. This is my fiancé."The assistant suddenly understood. "I see. He’s wearing a mask—could he be a celebrity too?"Emily said, "You guys go up first. We’ll handle my luggage.""Alright, we’ll go find Amanda then. Emily, are you staying at this hotel tonight?"Was she the type to forget work once she had a man?"I...""She’s not staying here," Mr. Satan had already taken her luggage, speaking softly. "I’ll inform Amanda. Thank you for taking care of Emily on the way."Despite his cold demeanor, Mr. Satan was very polite. The assistants waved their hands quickly. "No need to thank us. The concert is the day after tomorrow, Emily. Just come early that morning. You can rest these two days!"Th

    "Three years ago, I nearly died." Emily snatched her passport back from Sophia’s hand. "This British couple is my family. They’re good people. They saved me and took me to England."She held the passport firmly. "And yet, you still wouldn’t let me go. You went to every length to forge my death certificate.""Do you all want to know why they wouldn’t leave a ‘dead’ woman alone?" Emily let out a bitter laugh. "Because this was their only chance to inherit the wealth I left behind.""I didn’t die; I’m alive and back to reclaim what’s rightfully mine. This time, no one will hurt me. Sophia, you and your mother won’t steal my inheritance, and you won’t ruin my wedding.

    “I know,” Emily said firmly.When Vincent slid the ring onto her finger, she felt a flash of disbelief. She’d expected Sophia to pull something, but Vincent’s unwavering stance took her by surprise. It’s over—everything’s finally over.Emily’s eyes glistened with tears.The priest’s voice resonated, “The groom may now kiss the bride…”Emily lowered her head, tears shimmering on her lashes. Vincent leaned in, kissing away the tear before it fell.Applause thundered through the church, and the priest laughed. “Go on, kiss her; she’s yours now.”Vincent didn’t hesitate, pulling Emily into a kiss. “You’re my wife, Emily. Finally.”Emily smiled through her tears. “Yes, I’m finally your wife.”Vincent turned with Emily still in his embrace, facing the crowd. “Emily and I are together now, and nothing will ever come between us again.”The guests watched, Meggie wiping tears of joy from her eyes.But Sophia wasn’t about to let things end on such a perfect note.

    Dylan was right.Three days later, Emily Carter and Vincent Norman were to be married. With Meggie as the wedding’s head organizer, invitations bore Emily's name, revealing to everyone that Miranda—the talented designer making waves at the Pritzker Architecture Prize—was indeed Emily.The announcement stunned all of New York and the entire architecture community. So Miranda is really Emily? People couldn’t believe the city’s most eligible bachelor, Vincent, had been swept off his feet so quickly.The Norman family, known for their longstanding legacy, hosted an extravagant guest list. Alex greeted everyone warmly, while Mandy barely cracked a smile. She was still fuming—she’d barely started her schemes with Grace to find Vincent a “suitable” bride, only to be blindsided by this wedding! She muttered, “Wasn’t he supposed to be so deeply in love with Emily? Now he’s marrying someone else so fast?”Meggie overheard and firmly replied, “The bride is Emily.”“Oh, come on, Mom. She’s not—”

    Emily suddenly felt super self-conscious. “Fine, I’ll drink it. But after I’m done, go back to your office!”With that, she tilted her head back and gulped down the entire glass of lemon water in one go. She quickly shoved the empty glass back into Vincent's hands, saying, "There, all done!"Vincent's eyes sparkled with amusement. "Great. Come to my office at lunchtime," he said with a hint of mischief.Emily frantically tried to signal him with her eyes, mouthing, “People are watching!”Vincent seemed completely unfazed and continued, “It’s freezing outside, so don’t go out. I already asked Dylan to pick up lunch for us; he’ll bring it up, and we’ll eat together.”“...Okay.”He’s gotta be done now, right? Emily thought to herself, hoping he’d leave before the entire office saw this unfold live.“Oh, one more thing,” Vincent added nonchalantly, “Don’t rush off after work. We’ll swing by and pick up your uncle first, then head to my place for dinner with my dad and Meggie.”Emily blink

    As soon as Allen left the hospital room, Jackson turned pale and, with a sudden heave, threw up everything he’d just eaten, leaving a mess on the floor.The young nurse, no older than twenty, panicked and rushed toward the door to call a doctor, but Jackson stopped her. “Stay,” he commanded.The nurse looked at him with wide eyes, almost on the verge of tears as she saw his ashen face. “Sir, if you’re unwell, you really should let the doctor check—”“I’m not unwell,” Jackson replied, his voice cold, with a glint of harshness in his eyes. The nurse flinched slightly at his intense gaze.“Are you scared of me?” he asked, a smirk playing on his lips.“N-no, not at all,” the nurse stammered, shaking her head. “It’s just…”“Don’t worry about it,” he said, a faint sneer forming. “Fear is natural. I’ve never been the nicest person, and I don’t pretend to be.”“Oh no, you’re a good person, sir! You… well, you pay me well,” she replied hesitantly.“Money alone doesn’t make someone good,” Jacks

    The projects across the company were running smoothly. Ken managed the technical aspects, and Daniel handled administration and overall decision-making. Even during Satan's three-year absence, The Great Wall Group retained its position as New York’s leading business powerhouse.As Emily browsed the recent news on her phone in the car, it was clear the city was engulfed in Christmas cheer, bright and bustling.Satan glanced over. “Any plans for Christmas?”She paused. “Not really. I’ll probably just stay in and watch TV with Bert.”He nodded without pressing further. Emily wondered what had prompted him to ask; he’d usually spend Christmas with his family.A slight smile crept across her face, but her expression held a tinge of sadness. The people in her life seemed to be growing fewer by the year. Christmas used to be difficult but joyful, a shared warmth despite the hardships. This year, it felt especially lonely. Sophia had long severed ties with the family, and William was gone. It

    Jackson cut her off. “Then let me take you to meet my family! You’re amazing—they just don’t know you yet. Once they do, they’ll definitely support us being together. That way, we won’t have to choose, and we can stay together, right?”“What if they still don’t agree?”“I’ll talk to them. I’m committed to you for life. They’ll have to come around, whether they agree or not!”Emily couldn’t help but laugh. “But I don’t agree.”Jackson felt a pang of panic. He tried to sit up to reach her hand, but his body was still confined by the plaster, immobilizing him completely, and he was forced to lie back down. “Emily, are you worried because my parents don’t like you? If I love you, their initial reservations don’t matter; they’ll come to accept it.”“That’s part of it,” Emily admitted, “but there’s a more important reason…”A sinking feeling came over Jackson. “…What is it?”……Weather forecasts are rarely reliable, but this time, it turned out to be spot on.By evening, the sky was filled

    Emily didn’t say anything, but her mind was a mess.“You don’t need to say so many sentimental things,” she replied softly. “For Meggie’s sake, I’ll go through with the wedding. Don’t worry.”“But I don’t want a fake wedding,” Satan replied. “I want it to be real.”The elevator stopped on the ground floor.Emily stepped out first, and unlike the warmth of the room upstairs, cold snowflakes were now drifting down outside, and the air felt sharp against her skin, like knives slicing across her face.Standing at the Hilton’s entrance, she asked, “Did you drive here?”“I took a cab.”“Did you sneak out again?”Satan shrugged with a wry smile. “Dylan’s been keeping too close an eye on me.”With no other option, Emily walked to the curb and flagged down a taxi for him, signaling for him to hurry up.“To St. Mary’s Hospital, please,” she instructed, then turned back to him. “When you get there, have Dylan call me to let me know you arrived safely, okay?”He nodded. “And what about you?
