All Chapters of My Mysterious Husband: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

"Hmm," Landon drawled, "What's up?"Calvin was on the verge of losing his mind. "What do you mean, 'what's up'? Where have you been? There's a pile of work waiting for you at the office, and you...""Oh, all that stuff… Go find my grandpa or my uncle," Landon interrupted Calvin, languidly looking at the scenic view outside his window. "They'll be running the company from now on. I'm retiring."Calvin choked on his own saliva. "Cough, cough, cough... You— cough... you, you— Cough— What?""My grandpa plans to bring Leto into the company and have me mentor him," After Landon finished his sentence, Calvin immediately understood."Has the old man gone senile?" As Landon's childhood friend, Calvin knew the Stirlings’ situation best.Would this move by Leopold not hurt Landon’s feelings?"What are you going to do?" Calvin, without hesitation, chose to stand by his childhood friend.Landon chuckled softly. "Let them run the company themselves."Calvin burst out laughing. "Got it. You

"Oh my, you two are still so affectionate, even with a child so big! It's really enviable," a colleague laughed heartily. "I'm off now. See you tomorrow.""See you tomorrow," Emma greeted her colleague with a smile and rode her bike home.As soon as she opened the door, she was greeted by an enticing aroma."Did you order takeout?" Emma asked casually, placing her keys in the entranceway."Mommy!" Asher came over happily. He had his hands behind his back, smiling so wide his mouth could not close. "Daddy bought yummy food! It's so good!"Emma raised an eyebrow, teasing her son, "How do you know it's good? Did you sneak a taste?"Asher, caught red-handed, pursed his lips. "Daddy asked me to try it."Once he finished speaking, he remembered what his mother had said and bravely took responsibility. "I wanted to try it too."He could not blame his dad.Emma smiled, "So, is it good?"Asher stole a glance at his mother's face. Seeing that she was not angry, he quickly said, "You’ll

"Apart from the basic cost of living, the most crucial factor is the risk," Emma explained, pointing to herself. "I have to work hard every day to earn money, and I'm considered fortunate compared to those in worse situations."Rent, food... Even the bare necessities drain us of all our energy. If we're lucky enough to have some savings, we wouldn't risk it all on investments. We can't afford to lose."Emma's smile was serene, yet it struck Landon as strangely poignant. "By keeping our savings untouched, we can use them for emergencies in the future. But if an investment fails, it could ruin our entire livelihood.""We have no safety net." Emma sighed softly.Landon let out a breath, his chest feeling constricted. "You're right. I've been taking things for granted."He had never considered the lives of ordinary people simply because his own life had been anything but ordinary since the day he was born.Emma looked at Landon with surprise, her expression prompting him to ask, "Why

It was not like she wanted to be born into that family, either. Emma's heart ached the more she thought about it. The guilt and frustration gnawed at her, threatening to spill over.Landon pretended not to notice her reddened eyes, knowing that any words of comfort would only make her feel worse. Silence, in this case, was the most eloquent expression of support."It's just a small matter," he reassured her with a gentle smile. "I'll handle it. You go check on Ash."Emma nodded silently and retreated to their suite.Landon watched her leave, a sigh escaping his lips. He could not bear to see Emma trapped in the suffocating grip of her family. She deserved a life of freedom and fulfillment.For him, resolving her family's issues was a mere inconvenience, yet it held the potential to liberate Emma. So why would he not do it?Landon did not give their upcoming visit to Emma's family a second thought. He returned to his suite, glancing at his phone. A missed call from Calvin caug

As they entered the living room, Emma's uncle Bronson was sitting on the couch. His presence was never a good sign."Where's Dad?" Emma inquired.Her question seemed to open a floodgate of complaints from Barbara. "What could he possibly be doing? He doesn't do anything around the house. All he cares about is his tinkering. “He's off somewhere again, wasting his time all day long and not earning a penny, leaving me to do everything."Emma listened to her mother's tirade and asked, "Then why don't you stop cooking for him and doing his laundry?""Oh, you can't be so selfish," Barbara retorted without hesitation. "If I don't cook for him, he'll eat junk, get sick, and then it'll be my problem. And if I don't do his laundry, those clothes will just pile up."Emma glanced at Landon. See? This was her family's typical scene.Landon nodded slightly, indicating his understanding. Emma's mother was simply asking for trouble."You’re another one. At your age, you still don't know how
