He acknowledged Landon's abilities, but he did not want his grandson, whom he had cherished since childhood, to carry nothing but hatred in his heart, unable to feel the beauty of life beyond work.Leopold let out a heavy sigh. Well, he should find a suitable girl for Landon as soon as possible. As for the one he had married recently, he felt that she was not worthy of his grandson. She was just a plaything that Landon brought to appease him.When Landon gets married, he should find someone who matches him in all aspects. Once Landon has his biological child, his heart will soften, and he would not be as paranoid as he was now. These were not things that the woman with the child could provide.Leopold decided to put aside his pride and consult his old contacts to see if any of them had a suitable girl.After leaving the Stirling family residence, Landon was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. He was not worried that his grandfather would find out about the marriage. After all, apart f

“Hello, Emma? This is George from the catering service. We have a special request for an urgent delivery. Can you handle it?”“Sure, George. What's the address and what's the order?”George quickly provided the details. “It's for Mr. Landon at his office. He needs lunch delivered within the next hour. It's a bit far, so we'll compensate you accordingly. Can you make it?”“Absolutely. I'll take care of it,” Emma assured him.She hurriedly completed the delivery, ensuring the food arrived fresh and hot. Mr. Landon was pleased with the prompt service.Later that evening, Landon returned home. He appreciated the delicious aroma in the air. Emma had prepared a hearty dinner.“Welcome back, Mr. Landon. Dinner is ready,” Emma greeted him with a warm smile.Landon was genuinely touched by her efforts. Despite their unconventional arrangement, Emma's dedication to her role impressed him. As they sat down for dinner, Landon could not help but feel grateful for the unexpected positive chan

Barbara did not anticipate that. She glanced at her older brother, and Branson nodded. Seeing the interaction between her mother and her uncle, Emma was thoroughly disappointed. She had thought her uncle genuinely wanted to help her, but it turned out to be an equivalent exchange. Was it equally challenging for her uncle's granddaughter, Hailey Walker, to enter a prestigious primary school as it was for her son to attend kindergarten?"Why are you like this?" Barbara demanded. "Without being direct relatives, they can't attend school.""Uncle Bronson, you don't need to trouble yourself with Asher’s kindergarten enrollment. I'll find a way myself," Emma quickly redirected the conversation. "I need to get back to work now."Having rejected the possible transaction, Emma swiftly left."Why are you leaving? Your uncle is helping you, and you're still unwilling. This child..." Barbara began to go after her, but Emma ran fast enough to escape. She did not hear the rest of what her mother

She wanted to hear what explanation her mother would give her. At this moment, Barbara's mind was spinning rapidly. "Does your son have to go to a prestigious primary school?" Emma felt a sharp pain in her chest. Her mother's words cut like a knife. "Why can't my child go to a prestigious primary school?" Emma's tears threatened to find release. Was her son not deserving of such a good opportunity when compared to Hailey?"Why are you being so unreasonable?" Barbara scolded her without mercy. "I'm doing this for your sake," Barbara said with confidence. "You're married, and your husband sees this illegitimate child hanging around all the time. Even if he doesn't say it out loud, do you think he feels good about it?" "Just leave the child with me and let him go to a school nearby. Then, in a couple of years, you can have another child with your husband." The more Barbara spoke, the more she felt that she was being clever and reasonable. "This way, when you have your child with hi

"Alright, alright, I won't keep you. Goodbye." With a smirk, Bronson hung up the phone.He would have no mercy for Emma.She had a child out of wedlock, and she still dared to refuse him?He wanted Emma to understand that the world was not so simple.At that moment, Emma had no idea that someone was already scheming against her. She was feeling embarrassed.She awkwardly twiddled her fingers. "Mr. Landon, it's not what you think. My mom made an unreasonable request, and that's why we argued."Every time she resisted her mother, everyone around would scold her for being unfilial or a heartless person.She was eager to explain to Landon about what had just happened. However, she suddenly realized that the situation was too complex. She would have to start with her relationship with her mother and then explain why she had become the person she was.Landon was an elite. His time was precious. How could he possibly listen to her talk about these trivial matters?Emma anxiously stol
