Emma rushed to place the water glass on a nearby table. Her voice was laced with concerned as she said, "Ms. Lynch, please try to recall where you might have placed it.""It was right here," Ms. Lynch huffed, her frustration evident. She pressed a button on the intercom and spoke, "Someone come in here. I've lost my necklace!"The salon manager entered the room with quick footsteps, accompanied by the staff member who had earlier attended to Ms. Lynch."Ms. Lynch, what valuable item seems to be missing?" the manager inquired anxiously."My necklace is gone!" Ms. Lynch gritted her teeth, her face etched with displeasure. "The one I had on when I arrived."The manager immediately attempted to soothe Ms. Lynch's ruffled feathers. "Ms. Lynch, please don't fret. Nothing ever goes missing at our establishment. It's likely it just slipped out of sight somewhere. I'll have someone look for it right away."Turning to the staff member who had assisted Ms. Lynch, the manager questioned, "Di

Ms. Lynch was taken aback by Emma's accusation.As Emma stared at Ms. Lynch, she had a feeling that Ms. Lynch was behind this setup.While she could not pinpoint the exact motive, the entire situation struck her as highly suspicious.It was impossible not to harbor doubts."What if you were wearing gloves while stealing it?" Ms. Lynch quickly retorted."Then let the police search the room for any gloves I might have worn!" Emma stood her ground."Fine, let them investigate thoroughly!" Ms. Lynch scoffed.Emma's eyes narrowed. Her voice was laced with sarcasm as she said, "So, you think even if the investigation proves I'm innocent, the worst that will happen to you for framing me is that you made a mistake and that’ll be it, right?"Ms. Lynch's silence and dismissive eye roll spoke volumes, confirming Emma's suspicions.Emma nodded, her determination unwavering. She pulled out her phone, tapped a few times, and held it up for everyone to see."What if I have video footage to

Ms. Lynch had never seen anything like this.She had been lured by the promise of favors from Landon's aunt. However, now that Landon was personally involved, his aunt was no match for him."Mr. Stirling," she pleaded desperately, "It really wasn’t my fault. It was all your aunt's idea."Landon asked calmly, "What idea?"Ms. Lynch quickly explained, spilling out Landon's aunt's plan in detail.Landon listened and nodded. Then, he took Emma's hand and walked out without another word.Ms. Lynch was stunned and called out after them, "Mr. Stirling, Mr. Stirling..."What was going to happen? Would Landon give her a straight answer?Unfortunately, Landon did not stop at all. He left the matter in the hands of his assistant and lawyer, who had accompanied him.He left with Emma.Once they were out and in the car, Landon asked Emma, "Want to get some payback?"Emma looked at him, puzzled. She was not sure what he meant."Someone's framed you like this, and I'm here for you. Don't

Leto’s mom, Renee Swan, was naturally not going to admit anything. She feigned surprise and asked, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand!"As long as she did not admit it, the whole situation would look like Landon was framing her. Then, it would not be her problem.Leopold frowned and scolded, "Emma, what are you causing a scene here for?""Mr. Stirling, that’s the wrong question to ask," Emma retorted, fully fired up. Normally, she avoided trouble, not because she could not see it coming, but because she wanted to keep peace and avoid causing issues for herself and her son. Now, with Landon backing her up, she had nothing to fear."If you don’t know what’s going on, why is she in the company?" Emma pointed at Leto’s mom. "I don’t remember her having any position here.""This is the Stirlings’ company. I decide who can and can not be here!" Leopold felt his authority being challenged and angrily slammed the table."Mr. Stirling, are you sure this company is still y

With the situation reaching such a point, Leopold was unable to bear the humiliation of his defeat and decided to leave the company. He got up, heading straight for home.Emma, sensing the tense atmosphere and wanting to give Landon some space, quietly excused herself. "I'll get going now."She knew he had a lot to handle, taking over the company. Her presence might only hinder his progress."No need," Landon shook his head and gently declined. "You've been through quite an ordeal. Let's grab something to eat and take your mind off things."Emma looked at him, surprised by his suggestion. "Oh, no, really, it's fine. You should focus on work,” she said as she waved her hand in dismissal.After all, she had not suffered any harm in the spa incident. In fact, she'd even gotten a good laugh at Landon's aunt's expense.Suddenly, Landon leaned in closer, their faces inches apart. Emma's breath caught in her throat, her eyes wide with anticipation. What was he about to do?"Food and
