It felt like they had been walking for a long, long time before she was gently placed in the passenger seat of the car.

The chassis of this car was high; it should be an SUV.

Mr. Satan let go of her, and his arm withdrew from around her waist, the familiar warmth suddenly disappearing, leaving Emily feeling a bit flustered.

"Mr. Satan?"

"Yeah, I'm here," his voice was in her ear, "Is your foot still hurting?"

Emily reached out and felt his firm muscles, feeling much relieved. "Did you forget to wear a mask today?"

Mr. Satan responded with a grunt, "Do you want to see me?"

Although she already knew Mr. Satan was Allen Parker, saying she didn't want to confirm it with her own eyes would be a lie.

She wanted to open her eyes and see him more than ever.

But...

"Would I ruin your plans?"

Mr. Satan's kiss landed gently on her lightly closed eyelids. "Maybe, but if you really want to see..."

"No need," Emily obediently closed her eyes, "I won't look. I'll wait until the day you're truly will

    Olivia heard about her sprained foot and came to visit her early the next morning.As Olivia held her ankle, she frowned and said, "I suspect you're exaggerating. Your ankle doesn't look swollen."Emily also found it strange. Mr. Satan had massaged her ankle again this morning, and the swelling had disappeared in no time.Olivia asked, "Did Mr. Satan massage your foot again?"Sitting down beside her, Olivia continued, "Actually, Allen Parker is quite decent. I asked many friends, and they all said that Allen Parker, despite being thirty years old, has been single all this time! It seems he's not a playboy. Just think, he sees various types of female celebrities every day; he probably isn't just attracted to a woman's appearance anymore."Emily chuckled, "Are you complimenting my inner beauty?""Of course! Your personality is charming!" Suddenly, Olivia remembered something and exclaimed excitedly, "Yesterday, Nathan scolded Sophia harshly in front of many high society people. It's bei

    "I didn't block you. Mr. Reed, you're so busy, I've been waiting for you to submit our divorce papers to the court. We've already signed them, but why haven't you submitted them to the court yet?"Nathan muttered something under his breath as if he remembered something."Okay, you didn't block me, but I'm asking you, when were you with that man?""Mr. Reed, we're divorced. What's the point of asking this?""Answer me!" Nathan roared, "The divorce papers haven't been submitted to the court, so I'm still your husband! I have every right to question your relationship with other men!"Emily also got angry, "Then why don't you go submit the papers today? Anyway, we've already signed the divorce agreement! Finish this quickly, so you can also marry Sophia!"Nathan on the other end of the phone raged, "Is this how you want to leave me?""Of course," Emily said firmly, "The sooner, the better.""What's so good about that man, huh?

    "What did you say, Nathan?" Sophia looked at him in disbelief. "I'm the mother of your child! How could you say that about me?"Nathan grabbed his phone and was about to leave. "I have nothing to say to you right now.""Wait—" Sophia grabbed him, preventing him from leaving. "Nathan, I've done so much for you. I've been your mistress for three years, and you treat me like this?"Sophia held onto him tightly. Nathan wanted to shake her off, but considering she was pregnant, he could only let her pull him along.He said, "Sophia, neither of us is calm right now. Let's talk when we get back.""No!" Sophia dragged him into the bedroom. "Let's talk about this now!""Sophia, let go!"Sophia pushed Nathan onto the bed and then leaned in to kiss his lips. "Nathan, is it because I'm pregnant and we can't have sex that you went to find the car model? The doctor said I've passed the three-month danger period, so we can make love..."Nathan turned his head away to avoid her kiss. "Get up, don't h

    The carpet in the room was also covered with rose petals. The entire room seemed to be engulfed in a romantic red hue. Although she hadn't drunk any alcohol, there was a kind of intoxicating charm that made her feel dizzy.Emily pushed him lightly, "I haven't changed my shoes yet..."She was still wearing white shoes because they had gotten a little dirty after going out. The pure and beautiful petals made her feel like even stepping on them would be sacrilege.She thought about squatting down to take off her shoes, but Mr. Satan was quicker.He knelt down in front of her, pulling her to sit on his lap."I can do it myself..."Mr. Satan didn't say anything, but the strength in his hands left no room for refusal. After she sat down on his lap, he leaned down to help her untie her shoelaces.Emily's hands were awkward, and she didn't know where to put them, so her body tensed up."Emily..."Mr. Satan suddenly called out, startling Emily.

"Emily, you're too kind.""What do you mean?""Luckily it's me you've encountered," Mr. Satan said. "If it were the man we just mentioned, James, who saved your father with money, would you treat him the same way? He's a playboy, and you would get hurt."Emily pouted. "I'm not stupid. I won't give my heart to every man.""Hmm," Mr. Satan expressed skepticism. "What if you had actually met him? What would you do then?""Well..." Emily paused, pondering for a moment, before replying, "I would definitely repay him. I would work harder to earn money to pay him back."Mr. Satan booped her nose. "He doesn't need money. You should know what men want from women. He wants you. Emily, let me ask you, if he demanded your body, would you agree?"Emily shook her head. "I've never thought about that question, and it's no

"Just remember, if you ever dare to touch my phone without permission again, I'll treat it as stealing trade secrets."He turned around to go to the balcony to answer the phone.Sophia grabbed him, hysterically pleading, "Are you going to fire me?""I remember that stealing trade secrets carries criminal liability. Don't you even understand the law?"He shook off Sophia's hand and headed to the balcony.Emily listened to the entire argument between Nathan and Sophia on the phone, finding it ridiculous.What is love?All she could say was that Sophia's luck was not too good.

    "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.

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.

    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

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.

    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?
