Chapter 51

Landon pressed the car to its speed limit and arrived at the restaurant in record time. He briskly walked to the private room, not bothering to knock, and simply pushed open the door. He wanted to see what kind of relationship Emma had with Brett, in his absence.As the door opened, he was met with the surprised gazes of Emma and Asher. There was no third person in the room. Brett was not there.Landon sneered inwardly. If someone had the guts to provoke him, they should at least wait for him to show up. Brett seemed to lack the courage for such sensibilities."Mr. Landon!" Asher joyfully waved his little arms as soon as he saw Landon. He was so delighted!Seeing the adorable smile on Asher's face, Landon's heart instantly melted. "Ash.”Emma noticed that the cold aura around him a few minutes ago dissipated. She blinked in confusion at the sudden change in his demeanor.While conversing with Asher, Landon quickly scanned the dining table and noticed a cup that seemed recentl

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Miss Brett. Emma is my wife, and taking care of such matters is my responsibility,” Landon extended his hand, offering Brett a formal handshake. He released it after giving her hand a slight squeeze.His gentlemanly demeanor earned him some points in Brett's perception.“Please have a seat,” Landon's anger had subsided, and rationality returned to his mind. He reverted to being the composed and in-control CEO.Once everyone was seated, Landon glanced at Emma and spoke with a hint of helplessness, “Emma insists on handling things regarding Ash's enrollment in the kindergarten by herself.“It's my fault. I’ve not dealt with such matters before, and I apologize for letting Emma trouble you,” Landon's attitude was gentle and friendly, portraying the role of a stepfather convincingly, leaving Emma staring at him in astonishment.She had to remind herself that she and Landon had signed an agreement. They were in a contractual marriage so nothing here was re

Emma nodded with a smile, "I know, I know, I'll do my best!"How could she not know the type of person Landon was? The question is... was she worthy of his affections? It was better to be honest and practical when considering such a question."Let me tell you something," Brett whispered to Emma, "Your husband was jealous."Emma's eyes widened in surprise. Where did Brett come up with such an absurd conclusion?"You see when I entered the room just now, your husband looked at me like he was going to murder me," Brett said in a low voice that made Emma burst into laughter.She patted Brett's hand, "Stop making things up, what murderous gaze?"He's in charge of the company and handles a lot of things. Being stern and having authority is normal," Emma explained.Jealous? Landon was not an average man. Why would he be jealous?"As someone who’s never been in love, you wouldn't understand," Brett said and glanced disdainfully at Emma, "Landon must have thought that I was a man."Emm

"He’s being patient with me because I’m your friend!""He's so good to you!"Brett was almost shouting at Emma.Emma was amused at Brett’s agitation, "I know, he's good to me, and I'm working hard to build a relationship with him. Don't worry, I'll do my best to hold onto him!"Brett sighed in relief, but still reminded her, "Work hard okay? Don't miss out on such a good man.""Of course," Emma said with a smile on her face.The truth of the matter was something Brett would never know.Landon was also bound by the secrecy of their contractual marriage. It was something they could not let others know. The true circumstances of her marriage were destined to disappoint Brett, who cared for her.Landon had settled the bill on his way back from the washroom with Ash. Brett had driven herself there and left first.Turning to Emma, Landon said, "Wait here for a bit. I'll bring the car around."Emma immediately refused, "No need, we came by the subway. It’s very convenient. You sho

Emma took Asher home and put him to sleep. Afterward, she went out to deliver food and run errands. Landon returned to the office to meet with a manager named Cole Sandler who worked with him.After Cole finished his explanation, he noticed that Landon had remained silent. Cole began to feel anxious, trying hard to recall if there were any discrepancies in the work he had just reported. Was there an oversight somewhere? Why had Landon not said anything?Cole nervously thought about it, and in just a few breaths, he broke into a cold sweat. Calvin, who was also present at the meeting, quickly perused the report but could not find any issues with it. Could there be some details he had overlooked?"Alright, I understand. You can leave now," Landon said suddenly. Cole felt instant relief wash over him and hurriedly left the meeting room.Calvin chuckled and asked, "Why did you give him such a hard time? Has he not been performing well recently?"Cole had certainly looked terri

Chapter 56

Landon's thoughts about Brett had been unfair. Emma had not known what he was thinking, so it was not fair to treat her the way he had.Emma's top priority was her son, and since little Ash was about to start kindergarten, buying him some things would be useful."Forget I asked," Landon said as he stood up and grabbed the car keys.Calvin asked in surprise, "Where are you going? There's a meeting in the afternoon, and it's about to start soon.""You can handle it. It's not an important meeting," Landon waved his hand and left without a backward glance.Calvin was left in disbelief. Who on earth was Landon's wife? In such a short time, she had managed to deeply influence Landon. As a good friend, Calvin could not stand by and watch Landon be captivated by that scheming woman.Unaware of Calvin's concerns, Landon drove straight to the mall. He did not need to know what to buy. He was confident that once he reached the children's section, someone would guide him."Sir, if your so

“Accepted? Which kindergarten?” Bronson asked, pretending as if nothing had happened."Emma, I’m saying this because I care. Asher needs a solid foundation from an early age. Don’t underestimate the importance of kindergarten just because he’s young," Bronson earnestly advised."Look at your niece. When she went to kindergarten, I found the best one in our area. A child’s development should be taken seriously from a young age."Bronson thought that if Emma were unable to afford a private kindergarten, Asher would have to attend a family daycare instead.He believed that Emma must be overwhelmed with regret for rejecting him back then. Bronson was clearly enjoying her predicament.Emma watched Bronson quietly, suppressing a burning rage within her. "You advocate sending children to the best schools, but why did you fight against my son's spot at the top kindergarten in the area?"Did he think she would be too embarrassed to speak up? She had no qualms about exposing his shameles

“You're overthinking this. We're all family, why would we look down on you?” Bronson spoke to her gently, but based on his past actions, it made Emma nauseous with his hypocrisy.Bronson paid no attention to her reaction and continued with his barrage of questions. “Can you afford the expenses if Asher attends Little Sunshine Academy? Or are you using your husband's money?” Bronson shook his head disapprovingly. “Emma, you married into another family with a child from another father. It's already good enough that they're willing to support you and Asher. Do you want them to shell out even more for his education? People aren't fools. You're taking advantage of your husband, aren't you?”“I'm willing.” The abrupt statement surprised Emma. When she turned around, she saw Landon sitting in the car with the window open.Emma had not noticed that Landon had parked his car not far from her.However, Bronson had seen it all. His words were meant for Landon.He had seen Emma's husband

Emma was not familiar with brand names and she did not care for them. However, from Bronson's expression, she could tell that the items were undoubtedly quite expensive.Emma smiled and ‘humbly’ inquired, "Uncle Bronson, do you see anything lacking in what my husband bought? Please enlighten us."We don't have experience in such matters. We’d like to hear what you have to say about it," Emma deliberately taunted him. She wanted to provoke him.Bronson's face changed a few times, then he sneered and said, "These things cost a lot of money. The expenses for Asher's kindergarten fees, plus these items... What a burden."Bronson glanced at the Bentley that Landon drove and said, "Your husband makes good money.""It's not about how much he earns. The key is that he's willing to spend it on me and Asher," Emma said as she raised her head proudly.Then she turned to Landon, "Why did you buy these without discussing it with me?"Landon chuckled, playing along, "Oh it’s no big deal, do

"I just don't know what kind of person he is. It's up to us to look out for Emma. Alright, I'll contact them and invite them over for dinner."Bronson achieved his goal and then hung up the phone. Putting the phone back in his pocket, he pondered the idea of probing into Emma's husband's background. If Landon truly had capabilities and connections, Bronson knew that he could leverage the relationship to make things more convenient for him in the future.Emma was not aware of Bronson's intentions. She was absentmindedly riding her electric bike. Bronson had left, and she was heading back home with Landon, but since she was on her bike, Landon could not accompany her.She gestured for him to go ahead and drive back first while she took her time to return home. She needed the time and space to sort out her thoughts.As it was not peak traffic time, Landon arrived home first. When Emma got home, she saw a pile of things in the living room – backpacks, notebooks, pencil cases, water
