Emily said, "I want to start learning design."Mr. Satan nodded. "Sure, when would you like to start?""Now," Emily replied. "I still have over three months before the baby is due, and I'll need time to recover afterward. I want to use this period to learn. I want to see Mom's designs come to life. I want to understand her mindset when she designed the apartment."Mr. Satan skillfully navigated the car into the underground parking lot of the Hilton Hotel."Rest today, and tomorrow you can come to the office with me. I have a very good designer in my company; you can learn from him."Emily was excited. "Great, but... I've only read a few books. I haven't systematically studied design. Will the designer be annoyed with me?"Annoyed?"More likely, you'll distract him."Mr. Satan locked the car and helped her into the elevator, pressing the button for the 23rd floor.Emily was concerned. "You're right. If he teaches me, it will definitely affect his work. How about this, I'll study on my
Emily was stunned.Mr. Satan carried her into the bathroom. "Come on, while you take a bath, I'll tell you just how capable your husband is."Just how capable was Mr. Satan?It took Emily over two hours to emerge from the bathroom.Emily was so exhausted that she didn’t even want to open her eyes, being carried out wrapped in a towel.She weakly protested, "You’re the real superhero, not me..."Mr. Satan chuckled, tucking her into bed and wrapping her up tightly. "I'm only a superhero for you.""What if the world ends?""Let it end. I'll take you to another planet," Mr. Satan said, lying beside her and pulling her into his arms....These past few days, Mr. Satan's sexual desire had suddenly skyrocketed, catching Emily completely unprepared.Several times she was awakened in the middle of the night, leading to sleep deprivation...So the next day, they both woke up late.On the way to the office, Emily slept almost the entire trip.When they arrived at the company, Mr. Satan gently wo
They came to see her?Emily felt a bit shy.She wasn't an animal at a zoo...The round-faced employee enthusiastically introduced himself, "Hello Madam, I’m Daniel, a designer currently heading the architecture department."Emily was a bit surprised. "Excuse me for asking, but how old are you?""Well, I'm actually a few years older than the boss, but I look young, so it’s hard to tell, hahaha..."Another employee immediately chimed in, "You're five years older than the boss. He’s about to have a child, and you're still single..."Daniel quickly grabbed his colleague's neck and mock-threateningly said, "Ken, remember who your superior is and watch your mouth!"Ken laughed, "I'm sorry, Daniel. You’re like a brother to me.""Don’t get too close. Who's your brother? I only have one twin brother, and though he’s not as handsome as I am, he's good-looking."Ken pleaded, "I respect you like a brother."Daniel finally let go of his neck.Ken, looking aggrieved, complained to Emily, "Madam, yo
Daniel explained, "Some middle school students come from difficult backgrounds, so they hope to earn some tuition money. If the interviewee is really good, we can hire them. If they choose to pursue a design major in college, the boss will help cover their tuition fees, and they can join the company directly after graduation."Emily suddenly remembered that she had worked part-time during her middle school years.To earn money for Sophia, she often took on part-time jobs."This is a good thing. We should give children with dreams a chance," Emily nodded. "I think this approach is excellent. It helps the company attract talent early and provides financial assistance to students from less privileged backgrounds, giving them a chance for a better future and education."Daniel felt proud. "This idea was proposed by the boss. He said at the beginning of his startup that many outstanding students are unable to attend college due to financial difficulties, which is a regret for both society
Emily's barrage of questions caught the female student completely off guard.Daniel’s expression darkened as well. He adjusted his glasses and spoke sternly, "Honesty is a fundamental principle for doing business. Our company doesn't hire dishonest employees."The female student took a deep breath, her eyes darting around nervously, clearly feeling guilty.She bit her lip tightly, seemingly trying to come up with an excuse.But Emily wasn’t in a hurry. She just smiled slightly and continued to watch the girl quietly.Finally, the student came up with what she thought was a perfect excuse: "My boyfriend paid for all of it. He’s well-off, so everything I bought was with his money."Daniel leaned in and whispered to Emily, "Ma'am, what do you think…?"Emily smiled, "Oh, that's right. I almost forgot you have a boyfriend.""Yes, you even saw him at the cinema that day. My hair, my phone, everything was paid for by him. I really don’t have much money of my own."Emily nodded, acknowledging
Mr. Satan leaned down and asked her, "Did you notice that girl was pregnant?"Emily nodded slightly. "Yeah, I noticed last night at the movie theater. Her belly isn't small, probably around the same stage as mine."She looked up at Mr. Satan and met his gaze. "I'm not doing this out of personal spite. But she's pregnant, and I guess she'll have to take a break from school or even drop out soon. She might not even get her high school diploma. Do you think she can still go to college? And with how recklessly bold she's acting right now, what if she ends up miscarrying? Wouldn't your company have to take responsibility?"Mr. Satan couldn't help but tap her on the nose, smiling. "You think of everything.""Oh my God, what did I just see! My eyes!!!" Ken suddenly yelled out dramatically.All the employees turned to look at them.They saw their boss acting like a bodyguard, wrapping Emily up tightly. They were stuck together like conjoined twins.Daniel clicked his tongue twice. "They're be
Thanks to Daniel and Ken, Emily quickly blended into the company.In the afternoon, Daniel held a meeting to discuss the apartment project.The blueprints were enlarged on the screen. Since they were hand-drawn and several years old, many of the details were no longer very clear.For the first time ever, Mr. Satan attended the meeting. No one seemed particularly interested in the mask on his face."They only care about work and their paychecks. Who signs them isn’t important," Mr. Satan explained.Emily nodded.Seeing the two of them close and whispering, Daniel joked, "Boss, could you be a bit more serious during the meeting? If you want to have a romantic chat, do it in the CEO’s office. You’ve been flaunting your relationship in front of all us single people all day—it’s too much!"Everyone followed Daniel’s gaze.Emily blushed and quickly pushed Mr. Satan away.But since Mr. Satan was sitting right next to her, his arm still rested on her back, and he leaned toward her without any
The party was scheduled for after work on Friday.The Starlight Entertainment building had several large halls, typically used for grand award ceremonies. The halls were spacious enough to comfortably accommodate both companies’ attendees.When Emily arrived with Mr. Satan, they only saw Allen Parker."Mr. Parker.""Emily.""Is Olivia not coming today?" Emily asked.Allen Parker smiled. "She... is still asleep."It was already past six in the evening, and she was still asleep?Hearing this, Mr. Satan smirked, pulling Emily closer. "Emily, let’s head inside."Emily, still concerned, asked, "Is Olivia sick? Why else would she still be asleep?"Mr. Satan leaned down to whisper in her ear, "…They probably stayed up too late last night… in bed."Emily’s face instantly turned red.She bit her lip, speechless.Seeing her reaction, Mr. Satan chuckled. "There’s nothing surprising about it. They’re grown adults and in the throes of a new relationship—it’s perfectly normal."Emily, still worried
