Chapter Ninety-Two "Our home..." Jethro gently repeated, his gaze filled with deep affection and sentiment as he looked at Emma. But in the face of this man's tenderness, Emma felt only disdain and pretense. She was not foolish enough to not recognize how cunning and ruthless this man was. She couldn't understand why he was so stubbornly fixated on her. So stubborn that he followed her and Harvey all the way to the restaurant just to sow seeds of discord between her and Harvey. Emma suddenly burst into laughter, realizing that if it weren't for Jethro's presence, she would have been led astray by Harvey like a fool. "Thank you, Jethro. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known how Harvey deceived me." Emma spoke, her voice muffled by the sound of rain and howling wind. Jethro remained silent, knowing that she wasn't genuinely grateful but rather mocking him. He attempted to take off his coat to cover her, but Emma pushed him away. "The rain is getting heavier. If it continues

Chapter Ninety-Four"So please, don't be angry anymore, if you're still angry, just treat me like a pile of sand. Whatever you want me to do, I can do it for you." Harvey held Emma's hand tightly, his strength preventing her from pulling her hand away.Emma knew that yesterday she suddenly ran away like that, not listening to Harvey's explanation. But she couldn't blame him because in her heart, doubts had been growing for almost a year, so anything could easily trigger her.Now Harvey had stated his main purpose, why he had been hiding from her, and that he didn't love the other woman. But Emma didn't feel relieved or comfortable hearing Harvey's explanation.Emma sighed, forcefully removing Harvey's hand as his strength caused her pain."If this continues, I'll think you're planning to break my arm. Sit down, let's talk properly."Harvey hesitated with regret and sat across from her. He had always felt something strange since Emma arrived. She was different from usual. Even though h

Chapter Ninety-SixHarvey shrugged, he really liked Gemma's negotiating style. "What if I want a child of my own? That's not too much to ask, right?" Harvey said, looking at Gemma expectantly.As soon as Harvey finished speaking, Gemma widened her eyes in surprise. She thought there must be something wrong with his head for him to bring that up in their deal. "If you want a child, don't expect anything from me. Many women are willing to have a child for you," Gemma sighed.Harvey wasn't discouraged by Gemma's words. He turned his gaze outward, thinking about how the days ahead would be without Gemma here. "Gemma, you know I don't want anyone else but you to have a child for me. Is that too much to ask? If you have a child for me, I can give you your freedom," Harvey said, his demeanor different from before. He wasn't talking about the terms of the deal with Gemma but rather pleading with her.The atmosphere between the two became stagnant, quiet, and gentle. After Harvey's words, both

Chapter Ninety-Eight Just because of a statement claiming that there was evidence proving Emma to be Jethro's Gemma, Clement felt agitated and continuously tried to talk to him, angered by the fact that his father ignored him. He knew his father's cold and dismissive attitude was revenge for Clement's behavior towards him in the past unable to gather information from Jethro, Clement sneaked into Jethro's private office and searched for evidence. Because his actions were very clumsy and he did not know how to hide them, Clement was quickly discovered by Jethro. "Clement, I've told you that you should only know what I allow you to know," Jethro said coldly, his gaze looking at Clement as if he could see through his inner thoughts. But Clement had long ceased to be an obedient child who listened to his father. He knew his sneaky actions were terrible and somewhat despicable, but he didn't care. In front of him was a powerful man even the government had to yield to. Clement was not the

Chapter One Hundred Harvey's mind was completely focused on Gemma, but he couldn't ignore the weighty matter regarding his family. The more annoyed Harvey felt, the more he thought of his "wife". "Is she still refusing to cancel this engagement?" Harvey glanced at the butler. The woman arranged by the Susan family to be engaged to Harvey was a member of the Reed family. She was also on the inheritance list and the only granddaughter given such favor. The butler shook his head. "She is determined not to sign. I see a strong determination in her attitude." Upon hearing this, Harvey sneered. As long as he wanted to, not only Susan but Reed as well could not stand firm, yet this woman was adamant against his wishes. They had met before and got engaged at the behest of their superiors. Caught off guard and cornered, Harvey had no choice but to agree at the time. He didn't care about the woman's feelings towards their engagement. "Do you know why she won't sign the divorce papers? I h
