Emily instinctively took a few steps back. "Shouldn't I coordinate my work with Ken? Isn't he around?""I asked him to leave," Vincent replied. "Emily, why are you avoiding me?"He spoke with difficulty, his voice rough and full of effort.Emily turned her head away, avoiding eye contact. "Where’s Dylan? Didn’t he go looking for you?" she asked, trying to change the subject."Answer me!" Vincent cut her off.He took a step forward. Emily tried to turn and leave but found the door behind her locked. The blinds were pulled down, and there was no way anyone outside could see what was happening inside."What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Norman?" she demanded."I just want to talk to you," he said, slowly approaching until he stood right in front of her. "Please, don’t avoid me."Emily turned her face away, avoiding his gaze. "There’s nothing left to say between us, Mr. Norman. Besides, you have someone else now. I don’t want to get tangled up in this mess again, only to end up being targete

Emily smiled patiently as she explained, "Please look here. According to the plan, this is a children's playground, with many play structures for kids. It’s clearly labeled on the blueprint."Ken nodded. "Yes, we saw that part."Emily continued, "While the kids are playing, the adults also need a place to rest. Taking care of kids is exhausting, so this area is designed as a resting spot specifically for the parents. From here, they can watch the entire playground, keeping an eye on their children while also getting some rest."After Emily's explanation, everyone finally understood."This design is really considerate," one of the designers said. "My wife always complains about how exhausting it is to take care of our kid, constantly keeping an eye on him to make sure he’s safe.""Yeah, my son is three now, always full of energy and getting into trouble. Taking care of him is seriously a workout," another added.Ken, however, stayed quiet, simply stroking his chin while watching Emily.

This time, he wasn’t quite the gentleman.Vincent grabbed Emily's hand, guiding her through the crowded elevator, across the bustling company lobby, without caring who saw them. He then pushed her into the front passenger seat of his car, ignoring the stares of onlookers.As the car started, Emily could still see through the window a bunch of curious colleagues gossiping about what just happened.“Do you think this is appropriate?” Emily asked, turning her head to look at the line of trees speeding by outside.Vincent replied, “You keep avoiding me. I had no choice.”“But you know how people in the company will talk about me after this, right?”“What will they say?”“They'll say everything I've accomplished, my skills, everything about me—was all because of you. They'll probably even say the award I won was thanks to your influence.”Vincent's voice was calm. “You can’t stop people from talking, Emily. I taught you this lesson three years ago.”Emily felt deflated, brushing her wind-t

Time was too tight; Lucas didn’t have a chance to fully grasp what had just happened before he rushed back on stage.A few minutes later, the venue erupted once more with the audience’s enthusiasm at Lucas's reappearance."Thank you..."The young makeup artist handed Emily a cup of water. "Would you like some water?"The girl’s face was full of admiration and gratitude.Emily smiled gently. "No, I’m good. You don’t need to thank me. Keep working hard."The young girl seemed greatly encouraged, nodding enthusiastically. "I will!"Emily turned and left the backstage area, moving through the staff-only exit to leave the concert venue.Vincent didn’t stop her. He just followed behind her silently."Mr. Norman, I’m off the clock," she said. "This is my personal time now, and I want to go home and rest. I’m not interested in staying for the concert."Vincent nodded. "That’s fine. If you don’t want to stay, we won’t.""Sorry for wasting your two VIP tickets then. I’m going now."He grabbed h

Bella was stunned.The girl standing before her didn’t look exactly like Emily Carter, but there was something about her – the aura, the expression – that was very much like Emily.Bella smiled apologetically, "You’re very thoughtful. Meggie talks about Emily all the time. Just now, she was holding my hand, saying Emily would come to visit her today. You may not look like her exactly, but with your similar demeanor, it might be enough to make the Meggie happy, especially since she can't see very well these days."Bella then slowly walked over and bowed deeply to Emily, sighing, "Miss, Meggie has longed to see Emily again, but Emily left us too soon... Could you, please, visit her more often? She doesn’t have much time left, and I think seeing someone like you makes her genuinely happy."Emily's face quickly turned pale, "Is Meggie’s health really that bad?"Bella sighed, her eyes moistening, "When Emily passed, it hit Meggie hard. Emily was such a good soul, she was even expecting a c
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 419 Meggie's Final Request
Meggie seemed especially cheerful today, constantly asking Bella to go instruct the kitchen to prepare Emily’s favorite dishes."Oh, and make sure they prepare a pot of duck soup, with ginseng, astragalus, and goji berries. It's great for women, both nourishing and beautifying," Meggie said, examining Emily's face closely, looking a little sad. "Why have you lost weight again?"Emily kept her gentle smile, comforting her, "I was dieting.""No more dieting, young lady," Meggie scolded gently. "The most important thing is to be healthy. Beauty is only skin deep, but your health is what truly matters. Look, you’ve lost weight and you look different, but I can still recognize you because your heart has always been pure and warm. Don’t think I’m just an old fool."Bella hesitated, but in the end, she said nothing and quickly went downstairs to instruct the kitchen.Half an hour later, a large table full of dishes was brought up. Bella was getting old, so the food was now being delivered by

On the way back, both of them remained silent. Emily was lost in thought, trying to figure out how to tell Jackson about the situation, while Vincent was uncharacteristically quiet, avoiding any discussion about their past.The car pulled up to the Hilton Hotel entrance. Emily opened the door to get out."Emily." Vincent suddenly called her name.She paused."Mr. Norman, I'd prefer if you call me Miranda outside of the family residence," she said, her tone polite but firm.Vincent nodded in agreement. "Alright, Miranda. I just wanted to say, if Grandma's wish is causing you any stress, I'm truly sorry."Emily looked down. "It's not your fault, so there's no need for an apology.""Either way, it's still on me. I failed to keep my promises to you," Vincent said softly. "But I hope we can work together on the luxury apartment project, and once it’s over—if you decide to go back to the UK, to leave everything behind—I won’t stop you."Emily took a deep breath. "Is it Grandma's kindness th

Emily almost stumbled as she rushed out of her room. She waved down a taxi and jumped inside. "Take me to St. Mary’s Hospital, please, as quickly as possible."The streets were quiet at this late hour, and the car sped along with ease. The driver glanced at her in the rearview mirror, offering a kind word, "Don't worry, miss. Everything will be alright."Emily took a moment to respond, then said a quick thank you. "I... I’m not that worried.""You're out here in your bathrobe; it sure looks like you're in a hurry," the driver sighed. "Did you even grab your wallet?"Emily hurriedly explained, "I have my phone, I can pay you online.""I'm not worried about you paying. But a woman, dressed like that, out so late—it's dangerous. Even if you're in a hurry, you have to protect yourself."Only then did Emily realize her state. She was still in her hotel bathrobe and slippers, her hair damp and dripping water.She quickly gathered the edges of her robe to dry the seat beneath her. The car so

"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. Her face twisted with such fury
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 470 The Wedding
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?
