441 She Is Emily

Olivia froze in place.Allen, walking right behind her, also stopped for a moment, slightly startled by the woman standing in front of them.This woman wasn’t anything like what they had imagined. She didn’t look like some flashy gold-digger after a man’s money. She was poised, her appearance and outfit reflected elegance and taste.Clearly, she wasn’t someone easy to deal with.Olivia stepped forward, eyeing her suspiciously. "Miss, may I ask what your relationship with Mr. Norman is?"Allen tugged on Olivia’s arm, offering an apologetic smile toward Emily. "Sorry, my girlfriend tends to act impulsively.""It’s alright," Emily replied with a warm smile. Seeing familiar faces stirred up emotions, making her eyes well up. "I... well, I’m her employee at the moment.""Employee?" Olivia took a deep breath, her voice full of skepticism. "Just an employee?"Emily hesitated, then nodded slightly. "For now, yes."That answer set Olivia off. "What do you mean, 'for now'? Are you planning to h

442 I Can't Make Myself Love Him

Emily’s gaze briefly lingered on Satan, lying in the hospital bed."Emily," Olivia tugged at her hand. "Let's go outside and talk.""Alright."The two women left the room hand in hand. Satan’s eyes followed Emily until she disappeared through the door, then he sighed softly, somewhat regretfully.Allen, sitting in a chair nearby, chuckled. "Stop staring; she’s not going far. She’ll be back soon."Satan responded with a quiet "Hmm." He admitted, "I know. I just... I’m afraid. I’m scared that if she walks out, I’ll wake up and realize all this is just a dream.""So you can talk, huh?" Allen raised an eyebrow."Yeah, I can, but the doctor said I shouldn’t talk too much. Emily will worry."Allen sighed. "Don’t worry. Olivia and I are here, and trust me, this isn’t a dream."Satan cleared his throat; his voice was still low and raspy but not as harsh as earlier in the day. "I’m sorry.""What are you apologizing for all of a sudden?" Allen asked, a little taken aback."I know Jackson is you

443 You Never Really Loved Me

Just then, Emily’s phone rang.Olivia glanced at the screen, “It’s Jackson…”“Olivia, I need to take this call.”“Alright, I’ll head back to the room and wait for you,” Olivia hugged her. “If you really can’t return Jackson’s feelings, make sure you’re clear with him, okay?”Olivia returned to the hospital room.Emily’s phone kept ringing persistently, reflecting the urgency of the caller’s emotions.She finally answered, “Jackson?”“Emily, where are you right now?”“I…”“I’ve been thinking. Vincent specifically gave you this project because he has ulterior motives! Quit the project, okay? I’ll take you away. Tell me where you are, and I’ll come get you right now. Let’s just leave—just the two of us. We can go somewhere no one knows us and live quietly. Isn’t that what you always wanted?”His voice sounded desperate, and Emily could hear car horns blaring in the background.“Are you driving?”“Yeah, I just got home and had a huge fight with my family. Emily, there’s nothing left for m

444 He Is the One Who's Truly Alone

"The highway?""Yes, he's on the Ring Road elevated highway, and it's currently rush hour. There's heavy traffic on the highway, and it took a while for the ambulance to reach the scene."Emily's palms were sweating. "What's Jackson's condition?""I'm not sure. All I know is that eleven people died on the spot. Nine others are being treated at the scene, waiting for the next ambulance. No one knows how Jackson is right now..."Satan, sitting beside her, asked, "Which highway?""The Ring Road..."His car immediately accelerated, speeding out of the hospital parking lot and merging into traffic, heading straight for the Ring Road.Dylan was still on the phone, giving instructions. "Ma'am, I’ll keep an eye on Jackson’s condition. I've already notified the Parker family. You should stay in the hospital and take care of Mr. Norman. Leave the rest to me.""There's no time.""What?""We're... on our way to the scene."Satan suddenly took the phone from Emily and spoke directly to Dylan. "At

445 Still Want to Take the Company Back?

Three years ago, Bryden publicly declared that he didn’t want any of the Norman family’s money, then left to find his own future. Janet, being a girl and now having made a name for herself in the entertainment industry, had no interest in fighting her brother for the inheritance. She was also self-aware enough to know she wasn’t suited for business and would only squander their father’s assets. So Alex made the decision to let Vincent run the entire Norman Group, while splitting his real estate, stocks, funds, and cash equally between Bryden and Janet.But no matter how much cash they received, it was still a finite amount. The company, however, was the real "golden goose."This decision had weighed heavily on Mandy’s heart for a long time. But her children didn’t share her ambitions, and each had their own concerns. Add to that a mother-in-law who didn’t trust her, and Mandy had no one to confide in.In New York’s social circles, people often flock to power and wealth. As Mandy’s inf

446 I Won’t See Jackson Again

Mandy was mostly convinced, but she still remembered the times Grace had tricked her in the past. Even though they had grown closer recently, Mandy remained cautious. Occasionally, she’d give Grace a few thousand dollars here and there, thinking of it as charity, but when it came to serious family matters, Mandy always kept her guard up.Grace wouldn’t just bring up such a topic for no reason—she had to have a motive.Mandy rolled her eyes. “Grace, just say what you really want.”“I don’t want anything,” Grace replied with a smile. “I’m barely scraping by as it is, worrying about where I’ll sleep or eat. How could I be thinking about all this? I’m only mentioning it so you can keep an eye out for yourself.”Mandy was skeptical. “And what’s your brilliant idea?”Grace lowered her head and smirked. “It’s quite simple, really. Find a trustworthy girl and have her marry Vincent. But this girl needs to be someone who’ll listen to you.”Mandy snorted. “So, that’s what this is about? You’re

447 Unspoken Truths

“Mr. Norman, you haven’t eaten breakfast, have you?” The nurse came in, pushing a small cart and asked. Emily answered for him, “No, he hasn’t. The doctor told us last night that he’d need a blood test today, so he didn’t eat.” The nurse nodded, “Alright then, I’ll take Mr. Norman’s blood now.” The nurse prepared all the medical supplies, kneeling by the bed, carefully inserting the needle into his vein. The dark red blood began to flow through the tube. Emily felt her heart tighten at the sight, frowning without realizing it. The nurse chuckled, “Mr. Norman, you’re really lucky. Your wife is so worried about you, she looks pained just watching you get blood drawn.” Vincent smiled warmly, his gaze settling on Emily with affection. “I’m not… I’m not his wife,” Emily quickly corrected. “Oh?” The nurse blinked in surprise, “You’re not Mrs. Norman?” “No, I’m not,” Emily repeated. “Oh, I’m sorry,” the nurse quickly apologized. “I just assumed since you’ve been by his side the who

448 I Leave the Choice to You

How long had it been since they had a conversation like this?That thought caught them both off guard.They used to have moments like this—so natural, so warm. But the fire... the fire had burned away all those memories, leaving nothing but ashes in room 2307 of the Hilton Hotel.Emily was the first to break the silence, trying to shift the conversation. "I wasn't trying to barge in or anything... it's just that I didn’t hear anything for a while, and I got worried something happened to you..."“Emily.”“Hm?”Satan chuckled softly, “It’s nothing.”Emily frowned, “Just say what you want to say.”“I just want to say... I’m happy.” Satan exhaled, a bit wistful. “You’re worried about me, and that makes me happy.”“Don’t get the wrong idea. I was just—”Satan gently cut her off, “It doesn’t matter why. Whatever the reason, I’m happy.”Emily let out a small, defeated laugh, shaking her head, “Whatever, I can never win an argument with you.”She reached out, holding onto his arm. "Let me hel

449 Let Her Go

He was much lighter than before.Emily gently helped Satan back onto the bed. "You rest for now, I’ll go call the doctor—""Don’t," Satan grabbed her hand. "I’m fine... I’m not dressed. Don’t call anyone."Emily shook off his hand, her voice firm, "Don’t hold me back. I need the doctor to check on you, to make sure you’re really okay.""I know… Emily, please don’t," Satan pleaded, gripping her hand tightly. "I know my own body. I just need a little rest. Please, don’t go."Seeing the desperation in his eyes, Emily sighed in frustration, unable to pull away. "Just listen to me, alright?""I’m fine, I know it," Satan reassured her, finally relaxing when she didn’t insist on leaving. He closed his eyes, his face pale and drained of color.Emily was still worried, but she feared that if she pushed too hard, it might make things worse for him."Emily..." Satan’s voice was weak."Yeah?""I want some candy."Emily blinked in surprise. "What?"A man in his thirties asking for candy like a chi

450 I'll Stay With You

Jackson opened his mouth to argue, but no words came out."Yes, I admit it," he finally said. "Three years ago, I deliberately told her that Vincent had given up on treatment, given up on their child. But I wasn’t lying about Vincent pulling another woman around in a hotel lobby while Emily was pregnant with his kid! He was unfaithful to her first!"Allen sighed and sat down in the chair beside the hospital bed, his voice calm but cold. "Sometimes what we see isn’t always the whole truth.""I don’t care what the truth is," Jackson shot back. "Vincent was messing around with a woman who looked just like Emily. You can’t tell me he was innocent!""But he was innocent," Allen said, his tone steady. "Do you even know who that woman was?"Jackson rolled his eyes. "I don’t want to know, and it doesn’t matter.""You saw it for yourself—the woman looked like Emily. Years ago, Vincent saved her, helped her pay off her debts, and gave her a second chance at life. But that woman, Penelope, was g
