Landon ignored Bella as Emma tightened her grip on his arm. He had stood up for her, and now it was her turn to protect him!Before Emma could react, Martin had pulled Bella away. Both Emma and Bella were stunned."What are you doing?" Bella snapped out of her shock and started hitting Martin frantically, crying and shouting, "Do you like that tramp? You heartless man, I'm your wife! I bore you a child...you're hurting me..."Emma turned her head in surprise to watch Bella. Since graduation, Bella had always flaunted her superiority in front of her. But now, Bella looked like a madwoman, with no trace of her usual elegance.It was incredibly unsightly and pathetic!And yet…it was so satisfying!Emma smiled and left with Landon.

Emma felt a sudden sense of relief. The invisible shackles that had weighed her down

Landon's fingers itched to pinch her adorable face, but he restrained himself and simply said, "I'll keep you steady."His words brought tears to Emma's eyes, startling Landon. "Did you twist your ankle?" he asked, worried that he might have been too late to catch her.He looked down at Emma's ankle but saw nothing unusual. Just as he was about to crouch for a closer look, Emma said with a slight sniffle, "My parents have never held me like this."Landon raised his head in surprise and looked at Emma.Emma sniffed again. "When I was a child, I envied other kids who walked along the edge of steps as their parents supported them as they wobbled and laughed happily. Then when they reached the end and their parents helped them jump down—it felt like such an achievement." She knew she was being sentimental, but she wanted to indulge herself, to express her long-held envy and desire. "I wanted to walk like that too."I wanted my parents to hold on to me as I played. But my father neve

Despite what had happened, Bella had not expected Martin to bring up the divorce when face to face with her father."Divorce? Fine, let's divorce. Do you think I need you?" Bella snapped. She was not a pushover. She had been pampered and spoiled by her parents all her life. She loved Martin deeply, but after he had hurt her repeatedly, she had had enough."Shut up!" said Mr. Mortimer. Bella was taken aback by his anger.“Why are you yelling at me?” Bella screamed, ignoring the food stains on her head and clothes as she stormed out. She was going home to her mother!Mr. Mortimer watched her go, knowing she was not in any real danger. He had more pressing matters to attend to. He called his wife to ask her to keep an eye on their daughter.After hanging up, Mr. Mortimer turned to Martin. "Dad, the situation is complicated. The only way to protect Isabelle is for me to divorce Bella."Mr. Mortimer was stunned. "What's going on? Tell me everything," he said urgently.Mar

Before long, Landon returned with several bags in hand. He got into the car and handed everything over to Emma. Emma took a look and was completely bewildered. "These are all my favorite snacks…" She had explained to him at length, telling him about the things she did not like, and so Landon had not bought any of those. But still, he had bought everything she loved. Was his taste similar to hers?"That's quite a coincidence," Emma said happily."Not really," Landon said as he fastened his seatbelt. "I bought them based on what you like.""Huh?" Emma was dumbfounded. "But I didn't say what I like to eat."She could guarantee that while explaining the snacks at the stall, she was completely fair and impartial."You can tell whether someone likes something or not," Landon said, raising an eyebrow at Emma. "Don't underestimate my ability to read people."Emma's mouth opened in astonishment as she looked at him admiringly. "You're amazing."Landon was amused by her expressi

Landon sighed heavily inside. If he was being honest, he admired her quite a bit. He knew that he had not yet emerged from the shadows of his family matters. His parents' handling of his uncle's passing, and his grandfather's approach to life, had left him resentful and full of vengeance. He did not have Emma's positive outlook.Despite his dark thoughts, Landon was in an exceptionally good mood as he drove them home.They walked into the house together. "Ash, I’m back!" Emma called out. Asher was reading his book but immediately came out to greet Emma. His eyes lit up upon seeing her, and he cheerfully exclaimed, "Mommy!"Landon stepped forward, feeling slightly awkward beside Emma. He was too big for Ash not to notice him. Just then, Asher turned to Landon and shouted, "Dad!"Landon could not believe his ears.Emma glanced at Landon. He seemed to accept the role quite readily.Emma chuckled and shook her head. Landon had a penchant for role-playing. She could

Asher took a few bites and then stopped himself, saying, "Mommy, I'm full.""Mm-hmm," Emma hummed as she wiped Asher's mouth clean. Having not seen Emma much that day, he immediately nestled into her arms.Emma smiled and lifted him onto her lap."Mommy, what's this?" Asher pointed his chubby finger at something Emma had put in his bowl."Oh, that's pickled radish. It’s sweet and spicy," Emma patiently explained with a smile."Would you like to try one?" Emma asked. "Shall I rinse it for you?"Asher shook his head and rubbed his tummy, "I'm full. I'll eat more later.""Okay," Emma nodded and started her dinner.Watching them, Landon chuckled, "Asher has a lot of self-control. Many kids I've seen would keep eating until you tell them to stop."Emma laughed. "Because I never go back on my word," she said proudly."I promise Asher things, and I always follow through. If I can't, I never make the promise in the first place. I explain to Asher why I can't promise something," Emm

Landon nodded and then looked at Emma without saying a word. He was curious to see her reaction once she knew what he had done.Emma stared steadily at Landon, pursed her lips, and said firmly, "Well done! Thank you!"Landon secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "You're welcome."Emma was gentle by nature but she did not take everything lying down. Knowing when to be gentle and when to be tough—that was her strength.Emma smiled. She knew better than to take his sincerity at face value.Landon did not owe her anything. She would do what she could on her own, and when the time came for her to step up, she would perform well and not let him down."Let's eat quickly before it gets cold," Landon reminded her.Emma nodded.She felt a warmth inside her—Landon always remained so gentle with her. He knew how she felt about his help so he changed the subject.‘He's really a good person,’ she thought to herself.Emma had gotten it wrong. Landon had not had the time to cons

"How is that possible?" Bella found it hard to accept her father’s words. "Perhaps you are mistaken?"How could Emma have found such a husband? A man of means even beyond Bella’s own father! That was absolutely insane!Mr. Mortimer stared at his daughter. "Did you drug Emma back in university?" he suddenly asked.Bella was taken aback. "No, I did not! Please don't listen to such nonsense, Dad!"But Mr. Mortimer knew his daughter very well. No matter how much she denied it, he could tell from her eyes that she had indeed done such a thing.Mr. Mortimer raised his hand and slapped Bella's face."Dad?" Bella covered her face and stared hurtfully at her father. "You hit me! But…but you’ve never hit me before! Listen, Emma is nothing but trouble. It’s her fault that we’re in this situation!""Who told you to do that to her?" Mr. Mortimer asked fiercely.Bella was defiant. "Dad, isn't this what you've always taught me since I was young? If you want something, you have to strive
