A weird feeling suddenly emerged from the depths of Emma’s heart. Perhaps, she had not truly experienced the magnitude of Eric’s power.
Seeing Emma deep in thought, he wanted to continue explaining things. However, at this time, Second Master Roberts entered the hall and looked at the couple sleepily, “You won pretty quickly…”
Eric turned around and looked at Second Master Roberts before leading Emma to his side, “This is second uncle. I didn’t get a chance to introduce him to you earlier.”
Before Emma could respond, Second Master Roberts dragged Eric to one side and asked, “Are you being serious? You’re dating a small-time model? Have you told your parents about this?”
Eric turned and looked at Emma before responding, “Does second uncle think she’s not good enough?”
“Of course she’s good. I can tell she is a good person and I quite like her. But, what about your parents? When do you plan to tell them?”
“I hope second uncle can keep this a secret for now. The timing is not yet right,” Eric responded with a deeper meaning.
“You and your father are the same; always acting all mysterious. I won’t get myself involved anymore, you can do what you want,” Second Master Roberts waved his hand casually. “It’s just a shame that the truce banquet ended up driving an even deeper wedge bet**en the two of you. You need to hold back a little…if you continue like this, how am I ever going to face old man Quincey?”
“Didn’t second uncle enjoy everything that happened today?”
“No need to point out what you already know,” Second Master Roberts looked at Emma after speaking. “Why don’t you give me the honor of sharing dinner with my potential niece-in-law. Tell me, how many people found out about your relationship before me?”
“Grandfather knows I got married, but he has no idea who with.”
“Married?” Second Master Roberts covered his mouth. “I thought you guys were merely dating.”
Eric presented his ring-bearing left hand and chuckled, “It’s already been four months.”
“In that case, we definitely need to have dinner.”
Eric nodded his head and returned to Emma’s side, “Second uncle wants to have dinner with us, do you want to go?”
“Need you ask? Let’s go…”
After leaving the venue, the trio went to a nearby hotel. Second Master Roberts watched the exp**ssion on Eric’s face as he doted on his wife. He felt it was quite hilarious, “Good boy, you are becoming more and more like the younger version of your uncle. A wife should be doted on.”
“I’ve never forgotten,” Eric responded.
“You’re already 32-years-old. When I was your age, my son was already old enough to go to primary school. When do you plan to have a child?”
“No rush,” Eric brushed him off.
Emma watched the interaction bet**en the uncle and nephew. Perhaps because of genetics, Emma felt Second Master Roberts was quite approachable; the Roberts family members seemed quite likable.
Seeing Eric always had an endless supply of work, Second Master Roberts turned to Emma and said, “Niece-in-law, don’t let this rascal control you to death. Don’t listen to everything he says. Ever since he was small he has always been a control freak.”
“At home, whatever my wife says, goes,” Eric placed his arm on the back of Emma’s chair and raised his eyebrows slightly.
“That better be the case.”
Emma started to feel a little warm, so she decided to remove her coat, revealing the beautifully embroidered Qipao she was wearing underneath. Both Eric and Second Master Roberts froze in surprise.
Eric even leaned over and questioned, “Why are you dressed so sexy? Who did you dress this way for?”
Second Master Roberts cleared his throat and laughed, “Emma sure knows how to imp**ss the elders. Looking at you like this reminds me of how beautiful your second auntie looked when she was young. Anyway, second uncle would like to give his blessings to the two of you.”
“Seems I don’t have to worry about whether you will get along with the Roberts family,” Eric whispered into Emma’s ear after they finished dinner.
“But, in regards to a child…”
In the past, she had never considered this topic because her and Eric hadn’t been married for long. But, after hearing Second Master Roberts mention a child, she was reminded that Eric was already 32-years-old…
32! That was indeed an appropriate age to have a child. But, if she was to have a child at this time, the career she had worked so hard to grow, would need to be restarted again.
“Let’s talk about it when you want one. I’m in no rush.”
“But…”
“Am I at an age where I definitely need to have a child? Within the entertainment industry, there are plenty of people that have children at 40-years-old.”
On the way home, Emma lowered her head and contemplated. Was she eliminating the choice of having a child? No, she wasn’t.
Once upon a time, she had wanted to reach the pinnacle of the modeling industry because she wanted to seek revenge against Nathan and Amber. Afterwards, her reasoning turned into wanting to match Eric.
Now, to her, she believed a woman should have her own career, but, she also wanted a baby that resembled Eric.
“By the time you are 40, I will be 33,” Emma reminded Eric.
“Then, let’s do it a little earlier. It’s dangerous to be pregnant at an older age.”
“You even know about this…”
Eric continued driving. As the traffic light turned red, he turned around and looked at Emma, “After marrying you, I’ve done some studies. Married life is also one of the things I want to learn about.”
“I really regret not meeting you earlier.”
“If you had met me earlier, our relationship may have been unsteady. Wifey, I was once a typical youth with a bad temper and liked to argue.”
“Hmm, I really want to see that side of you.”
…
Next morning. Eustace posted online that he had lost a bet and his punishment was to admit that he was a jerk and was impotent.
The majority of the media found out about how Eric had beaten Eustace. In an instant, Eustace became a joke in the industry. From what they heard, apart from giving up the boxing match, even when he cheated in poker, he still could not beat Eric. Of course, this was only a small piece of news, but it proved one thing: No matter how much Star King struggled, they would never be able to escape the palm of Kaleidoscope’s hand.
“If something was to blame, it would be Eustace’s cheap mouth. For a face slap to be thrown so quickly, Mr. Roberts is indeed a man of action.”
“How dare he say our Mr. Roberts is gay? I bet he is the one that is actually gay. Mr. Roberts has a shockingly perfect body!”
“Haha, even if he isn’t gay, judging by how he plays with multiple women a day, he must either be covered in diseases or almost depleted of sperm! If not for the support of Star King, he couldn’t even dream of being a celebrity.”
“I don’t care what you guys say. I simply want to exp**ss my ultimate respect for Mr. Roberts!”
“Did you guys notice that Emma was also in the photo that was released this time? She was quiet like a beautiful painting of a wife accompanying her husband.”
“If only they could come out and admit to everything. They are causing us to put up with so much guesswork. How tiring!”
While everyone was focused on this topic, a comment suddenly appeared, “For someone like Emma that sleeps with multiple men, she will definitely be abandoned sooner or later. Just wait and see.”
“Who are you? Are you crazy? You must be envious of other’s joy.”
“Emma has at least three men; wait for the evidence to be exposed.”
