Landon became busy as he fully took over Stirling Group.From the very beginning, Anthony’s family of three had not wanted to contribute anything to the running of the company. However, when their interests were at stake, Leopold was not gentle with them. When Landon managed the company, Anthony and his family benefited from the dividends. However, due to recent events, Anthony and his family lost all their shares in the company, thus forfeiting any rights they had to the dividends declared. They were now living off their savings, clinging tightly to Leopold.Landon had no interest in their various entanglements. He knew that they could not cause much trouble for him. Leopold’s own dividends were also significantly reduced. Landon felt that if Leopold wanted to share his earnings with Anthony, that was up to him. Landon did not care about their distribution issues. He had no intention of returning to Leopold's house. As for how the public viewed his power grab, Landon fel

"Well..." Emma pondered the question. After serious consideration, she said, "Because it doesn't provide me with a sense of security."With a clerical job, anyone can replace me over time. Plus, I want to earn more money. Having money in hand gives me that sense of security. Anything can happen."She could not bear the thought of living off her savings without a job to sustain Asher and herself. The money she earned was not enough to support both of them, which made her uneasy so she had always aimed to earn more.Despite the allowance Landon provided her with, it was only for the duration of their agreement and when that was over, she knew that the money would stop.With Asher attending a prestigious private kindergarten and with the million dollars Landon had given her, she wanted to start something to earn more money. That way, she could ensure a secure future for Asher.It was not that public schools were bad, but she believed that providing a solid foundation and exposing A

Emma was uneasy about taking advantage of the situation. It weighed heavily on her conscience."In a marriage, it’s not about who spends more money or contributes more financially," Brett said wisely. "Emotional value is important too."Emma blinked in confusion. She did not think she offered any emotional value to Landon, especially since they were not a real couple."I need this to work. At least..." Emma trailed off, unsure of how to continue.She could never achieve the level of success that Landon had. Then a thought struck her. Why was she comparing herself to Landon? Or more precisely, why did she want to improve herself to close the gap between them?They were from completely different worlds. Could it be... that she had feelings for Landon?It was true—Landon was handsome, capable, and so gentle. ‘Oh no!’ Emma thought as her heart raced in fear. She could not afford to entertain such thoughts."Emma?" Brett noticed Emma’s sudden change in expression and lightl

Landon nodded thoughtfully. “You do make a good point,” he conceded. He did not dismiss Calvin’s words outright, but he felt a slight unease lingering in his mind. As he watched Landon, Calvin recognized that his words had hit the mark. He quickly shifted the topic, hoping to divert Landon’s attention. “By the way, I noticed an issue with the data in the last contract…”“Hmm? Where?” Landon asked, immediately redirecting his attention to the matter at hand.After completing his tasks, Landon found that he had some time to spare in the afternoon. He decided to check on Emma. “I’ve wrapped up work earlier than expected. How about you?“Still out? Okay, I’ll pick you up and we can get Ash together. Just send me your location.” Landon noted down the address and walked towards the elevator while still on the phone.In his preoccupation with the call, Landon failed to notice that Calvin’s office door was open. Calvin overheard the entire conversation and was struck by a mix of as

Landon was astonished as he listened to her talk. He had never encountered anyone like her before. The feeling was simply wonderful. There was no need for misunderstandings or pretense at home. He remembered how his father would come home from work, exhausted, but would always put on a brave face to avoid worrying his grandfather. He realized now that it was okay for him to express unhappiness at home and not have to pretend otherwise.Leaning against the kitchen door, Landon watched as Emma busied herself preparing dinner. He took a deep breath as the enticing aroma wafted through the air. He had tasted countless fine cuisine prepared by renowned chefs, but none had ever smelled as comforting as Emma’s cooking.When Emma finished, she set the dishes aside and Landon immediately moved to help. "I'll take it," he offered."Okay," Emma replied, accustomed to Landon's help in the kitchen. "Be careful, it’s hot."With a smile, Landon took the dishes. Sometimes it seemed l
