Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Mysterious Husband: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

“Yeah, I’ve got no time for that... Hmm, goodbye.” Emma briskly declined the call and put her phone away.Landon, acting as if nothing had happened, said, “If you're going to the class reunion, I can take care of Ash for you.”“No need,” Emma politely declined, “There's nothing worth celebrating.”Landon glanced at Emma. Was she hiding something by not going to the reunion? Once his suspicion was stirred, Landon could not help but find everything about Emma suspicious.Unaware of Landon's thoughts, Emma enjoyed a cheerful dinner with Asher.Landon, however, could not feel any joy that evening. He found it stifling. He had spent so much time carefully selecting a business partner, only to discover that she was a master of disguise.Emma’s presence proved to him that his judgment of people was very flawed. It reminded him to be more cautious in the future and not to be easily misled by appearances. His background research could use a bit of work too.Emma, on the other hand, h

Emma's calm demeanor thoroughly infuriated Bella. Combined with recent work difficulties, Bella abandoned her calm facade and shouted at Emma. "Just admit it! You're jealous that Martin chose to marry me, not you!" Bella scrutinized Emma with disdain from head to toe, her gaze sharp as a blade."Have you ever thought about it? Martin's background is on par with mine. You’re just from a working-class family, and now you’re a small-town commoner who got pregnant outside of wedlock. And you think you are worthy of Martin!“Knowing my daughter’s attending kindergarten here, you eagerly ran here to intercept my husband. Have you no shame?"Bella's words stirred whispers among the other parents who stood nearby. Children attending Little Sunshine Academy usually came from well-off families. Naturally, their parents spoiled them. Hearing Bella's accusations, their brows furrowed, and they began gesturing towards Emma.Emma's brows furrowed in anger. She did not care what Bella sai

The crowd that had gathered around them had not reacted yet, but Martin had already taken a few punches as he yelped in pain. Each punch hit him hard and caused him excruciating agony."Ah—move, move!" Bella rushed over to pull Landon off Martin. Emma, however, did not give her the chance as she swiftly moved to pull Bella aside. The security guard had hurried over to intervene.Landon did not confront the security guard. Instead, he gave Martin a vicious kick before stepping back. Then, he went over to pat Asher's little head. "Don't be afraid, Daddy's here."Asher, tears streaming down his face, his tiny nose red from crying, looked so small as he stretched out his hand to grasp Emma’s. "I’m not afraid, Mommy."Asher's innocent words instantly broke through Emma's defenses. Her four-year-old son had known how to comfort and protect her. How could anyone think to insult him?Emma lifted Asher and was about to say something but Landon seized the opportunity to speak first. He conf

Martin was relieved that he had parked his car far enough to avoid encounters with other parents in the parking lot. When he reached his car, he was not surprised to see Bella sitting inside, looking angry. He opened the car door and let his daughter in. Sensing the tense atmosphere, his daughter, Isabelle, climbed into the car and sat obediently.After closing the door, as he was about to open the driver's side, Bella, noticing he had no intention of consoling her, got out of the car in a hurry. She forcefully slammed the driver's side door and angrily asked, "What do you mean by this?"You see Emma and get scared, right? Do you still have feelings for her? If you like her so much, why didn't you marry her in the first place? Go be a father to that illegitimate child then!" Bella was furious, her frustration almost reaching its boiling point."I don't want to argue with you," Martin glanced at Isabelle inside the car, "you're scaring Isabelle.""Do you even remember that you hav

Emma's response made Landon deeply furrow his brows. "Can't you be more assertive?""Assertive?" Emma looked at Landon in confusion."Before Ash rushed out, you should have confronted that despicable Bella!" Landon said in a cold tone. He had been sitting in the car, feeling utterly frustrated. She was skilled in strategic retreats and manipulation so why did she appear so weak when facing Bella?"Do you know how much harm it causes to a child seeing you like that?" Landon used to think Emma was a good mother, but today he realized she fell short of that."What do you mean?" Emma's eyes gradually lost their sparkle, shrouded in a thick layer of gloom. She stared at Landon and asked, "Are you suggesting I did something wrong?"I should have given Bella a couple of slaps when she was picking a fight. I should have beaten her half to death so she wouldn't utter a single word again, is that what you're saying?" Emma's voice turned cold.Landon's anger flared up again. Emma had endu
