Chapter 271

Landon was a businessman, and every move he made had a purpose. Of course, he liked Asher, and Asher liked him too. Since Asher wanted to spend the night with him, he was more than happy to oblige. However, that did not conflict with his plan to gradually get closer to Emma.That night, Emma slept surprisingly well. She woke up at her usual time in the morning, and only then did she remember that Asher had spent the night with Landon. She was not worried at all, not even for a moment. Considering Landon had not come to her during the night, it meant Asher had not caused any trouble.After getting up, Emma washed up and went outside to see that Landon was already there. Seeing her, he smiled and said, “I’ve ordered breakfast. It’ll be here soon.”Emma smiled. “I figured. That’s why I didn’t order takeout myself.”She had not given it much thought; it was almost instinctual to trust that Landon would take care of breakfast.“Don’t worry about lunch either. I’ll have it sent ov

Emma felt a sense of satisfaction knowing that her efforts were appreciated and reciprocated. It was not like she was pouring her heart into a black hole, where nothing ever came back.She took a deep breath to steady her emotions and refocused on what she needed to do. She had plenty on her plate. The bakery needed to reopen, and Asher had to start preschool, which meant she had to get everything ready for that.After a few busy days, Emma finally got everything back on track. The little one was off to preschool, full of excitement, and Emma’s bakery was back in business. The store manager and staff did not say much; they just went about their work diligently.During those days, Landon occasionally had to work late, which Emma completely understood. After handling the matters with the Stirlings and Normans, his company probably needed some serious restructuring. She may not know much about that, but she did what she could. Every afternoon, she would prepare some food and take it

Emma was carrying shopping bags, casually browsing through the mall to see if she could find anything suitable for Asher. With business going well and finances in good shape, she wanted to treat her family to something nice.She ended up buying a few items and was heading out after paying when a man suddenly stopped her.“Excuse me, miss. Are you interested in acting?” he asked.Emma was taken aback for a moment but quickly smiled and shook her head. “Thank you, but I have a job.”The man continued, “Actually, I think you’d be perfect for a role in one of our shows. I’d like to invite you to audition.” He hurriedly handed her a business card. “Here’s my card.”Emma took the card with a polite smile. “Okay, I appreciate it, but I really don’t have the time.”“If you change your mind, you can give me a call within the next three days,” the man said warmly. “That role would be a great fit for you.”“Alright, I’ll think about it,” Emma said with a smile. “Sorry, I have to run now.”

Landon’s excitement lifted Emma’s spirits. Initially, she had felt a bit anxious about whether he would like the gift. However, seeing his reaction now, Emma felt that buying the gift was absolutely worth it just to see him so happy. It felt wonderful.Landon took out the tie, examined it closely, and immediately stood up to go to the mirror. He held it to his neck and said, “It looks great.”Landon’s every movement clearly showed just how much he liked the gift. Emma watched him with a sweet smile that spread across her face.She realized why she was so happy. It was because her gift made the recipient happy and she received positive feedback—a far cry from the times she had given gifts that were met with criticism and complaints about wasted money.Emma thought back and realized that anything she gave her mother would be nitpicked and criticized. She could not understand why her mother had to be so harsh or why putting her down seemed to bring her such satisfaction.However, s

“Scammers?” Landon frowned in confusion. “Are there scammers in the mall? Is it one of those beauty salons that lure people in with free offers and then pressure them into spending?” He knew that some businesses engaged in shady practices like that. His company’s mall had strict rules against such tactics. Any business caught trying to deceive customers in that way had their lease terminated immediately, and they had to pay compensation.Landon wondered if that was the kind of scam Emma had encountered. If it was some new trick, he would inform the mall’s management so they could be on the lookout.“The mall isn’t involved,” Emma said with a smile, shaking her head. “It’s a scammer pretending to be a talent scout.”“A talent scout?” Landon was taken aback.Emma chuckled. “Isn’t it interesting? You’d think talent scouts would be a thing of the past by now.“Nowadays, everyone’s trying to get noticed. There are so many ways to showcase talent, like on videos or social media channe

Landon spoke directly, stating his position. “My wife received a business card from you at the mall yesterday, mentioning a role that might be suitable for her.”The voice on the other end immediately responded, “Yes, that’s right. Sir, I assure you I’m not a scammer. I am–”“Famous producer Yannick Hart,” Landon interrupted. “I understand you’re currently working on a TV series.”“That’s correct,” Yannick replied with a smile. “It seems you know a bit about me, so you must realize I’m not a fraud. I’m wondering if your wife might be interested in coming in for an audition?”“What role are you considering for my wife?” Landon asked.Yannick raised an eyebrow slightly. The way Landon spoke was quite intriguing. He was not just another overly excited person or someone trying to put on airs; instead, he sounded composed and worldly.“Well,” Yannick began, “we’re producing a historical piece and need someone to play a mysterious and aloof sage.” As soon as Yannick finished speaking

“Mr. Landon?” Yannick looked at Landon, somewhat uncertain.Not long ago, Stirling Group’s affairs had been quite the sensation online. Everyone had been glued to the drama, and naturally, the identity of Stirling Group’s final victor, Landon, had been uncovered by netizens. After all, Landon had participated in numerous business events. Even though he had never publicly shared personal photos, there were always pictures from those events—albeit often distant or blurry due to his low profile.Yannick, a well-known producer, knew quite a few big names in the business world and had seen Landon from a distance a few years ago. However, he still recognized the man.Landon nodded slightly. After shaking hands, they both sat down.Yannick could not help but smile wryly. “I never expected that the right person I found would be your wife, Mr. Landon.”“What’s the script and what kind of role are we talking about?” Landon asked.“It’s like this…” Yannick explained the details to Landon.

With Emma, Landon was always upfront and honest, never hiding anything.“However, Yannick has worked on many film and television projects. He’s a professional in this field, so if he sees potential in you and thinks you’re right for a particular role, there must be a reason for it,” he said.“You can go for the audition either tomorrow or the day after. What do you think? Are you interested?” Landon asked, having said everything he needed to.“I think it sounds like fun. If you want to go, go for it. If not, that’s fine too. Your bakery is doing really well. There’s no need to force yourself into something you don’t enjoy.”Noticing that Emma still looked shocked, Landon started to worry. He wondered if maybe Emma was not interested in acting.However, Emma suddenly burst into laughter, feeling touched. “You went through all this trouble just for a business card and even met with the producer?”“Uh, yes,” Landon responded instinctively. Then, when he realized what he said, he a

More importantly, Emma had given Asher a heads-up about the potential for failure. Emma’s approach to parenting was truly impressive. Watching from the side, Landon felt lucky that he had chosen Emma on that blind date. After Emma had a detailed conversation with Asher about the audition, the little guy had a ton of questions, some of which Emma knew the answers to, and some she did not. However, she took it all in stride, diligently jotting down notes on her phone. “I’ll ask about it when I go, but some questions might get answered, and some might not. For the ones they can’t answer, let’s read up and figure them out ourselves, okay?”Landon watched as Emma skillfully guided Asher’s curiosity toward learning. He could not help but smile quietly. Emma had a real knack for turning passive learning into active engagement, making the process interesting for Asher. That was what truly motivated learning.Landon knew without a doubt that Asher’s development was largely due to Emma’s

Emma’s eyes crinkled with a smile, and she was genuinely enjoying the moment.The next day, Landon told Emma to stay home while he dropped Asher off at preschool. When the time was right, he drove Emma to her audition. As they were driving, Landon glanced over and asked, “Why are you staring at me like that?”“I’m just happy,” Emma replied, her smile never leaving her face. It was clear she was extremely content.“Why are you so happy?” Landon asked, finding it strange.Emma grinned and said, “Because you’re taking me to my audition.”Landon was momentarily taken aback, and a twinge of sadness tugged at his heart. Emma, however, was blissfully unaware of Landon’s emotions and continued cheerfully, “Honestly, I’m a bit nervous.“I’m really glad you’re here with me,” Emma said, a bit embarrassed. “Actually, I’m quite shy and have social anxiety.”As she spoke more, Emma grew a bit awkward. “Even though I seem outgoing and chatty with strangers, it’s all an act. I try to mask
