The hospital was quiet. Emily sat by the bed, holding the baby who had fallen asleep after playing. The little girl was curled up next to her mother, also sound asleep. “My son is very naughty. He cries whenever someone else holds him, but you managed to calm the little devil to sleep,” the young mother said, lying peacefully on the bed with an IV drip slowly feeding cool fluids into her veins. With both children asleep, Emily spoke softly, “Maybe it’s because I like kids.” “You must be a great mom.” Emily smiled. “I hope so. I don’t know if the baby in my belly is an angel or a devil.” The young mother continued, “My son is just like his father. We were classmates, and back then, he was the most mischievous student, always giving teachers a hard time. I never expected him to become a policeman, so different from before. What about your husband?” “He,” Emily’s lips curved into a smile, “is probably not that naughty, very steady.” The young mother nodded. “That’s a good personality. He will take care of you.” Just then, Emily’s phone rang. Not wanting to wake the children, she signaled to the young mother, placed the baby in her arms, and stepped outside to take the call. “Hello?” “You really slapped her well today.” Emily laughed instantly. “You know about it?” “Of course,” his voice came through the receiver. “You’re impressive.” “You’re mocking me again.” “How dare I?” Despite Mr. Satan’s joking tone, there was a hint of concern. “Are you alright?” Emily knew what he was worried about. “I’m fine, and so is the baby. I didn’t feel any discomfort at all. Did you tell your family about postponing the wedding? Is Grandma disappointed?” “She’s not disappointed, just a bit regretful, but she understands. She said her health is good, and it’s fine to get married after you’ve settled things with your mother. This is something you’ve been waiting over twenty years for, so we should wait.” Emily sighed. “Thank her for me.” “Grandma doesn’t need your thanks, just for you to safely give birth. She prays every day for the baby’s safe arrival. You must not act impulsively like today. If you need to, call me. I’ll handle it.” Emily chuckled. “I can’t trouble someone as important as you.” “You’re the only one who can,” Mr. Satan said. “I’m downstairs waiting. Come down.” “But…” “Don’t worry, someone will take care of her and the kids.” Reassured by his words, Emily ended the call, informed the young mother, and took the elevator downstairs. Sure enough, a black Maybach was waiting at the curb. Emily opened the door and sat in the passenger seat. “Have you been waiting long?” “Half an hour,” Mr. Satan said, leaning over to buckle her seatbelt. “Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?” “It’s already past midnight, and not many places are open. I can grab something from the convenience store ahead.” Mr. Satan’s perfect jawline moved slightly. “We have some ingredients at home. I’ll make you noodles.” “Sure.” Emily suddenly remembered something. “Have Allen Parker and Olivia left?” Mr. Satan laughed. “They left long ago. They’re quite the pair. Just now, Allen Parker called and offered to swap beds for me.” Emily blinked. Despite being prepared, hearing it out loud confirmed they had indeed been intimate in the bedroom. “They’re adults; it’s normal,” Mr. Satan said. “And it’s not their first time.” Emily gasped. Mr. Satan glanced at her with a smile. “Allen Parker is a man too.”Emily fell silent. “It’s for the best. They should clarify things between them. Like Allen Parker, my path to love hasn’t been easy.” Emily asked, “Has he liked Olivia for a long time?” “Probably as long as I’ve liked you.” Mr. Satan drove with one hand. “He liked her since he was young. Such feelings are hard to forget. You either fight for them or succumb to reality, marrying someone you don’t love under family pressure. That’s unfair to the bride, so Allen Parker and I both chose the former.” Emily nodded. “That’s why you’re friends.” “You could say that.” Mr. Satan suddenly remembered. “Logan looked for you today.” “At the Hilton Hotel?” “Yes,” Mr. Satan chuckled. “Olivia answered the door and scolded him harshly. You should learn from her.” “And then?” Mr. Satan said, “Olivia almost called him a scumbag. She yelled his name, and Logan had to flee.” “What are Sophia and Grace doing now?” “Sophia seems to be with a rich man. She wants to turn things around through him. I know a bit about him. He’s not capable but has some odd hobbies, especially SM.” Emily bit her lip, saying nothing. “Will you save her for your adoptive father?” Emily shook her head. “As long as she’s alive, I don’t care how she lives.” “Smart girl.” Emily smiled. “Shouldn’t I be a heartless girl?” Mr. Satan replied, “You’re far from being heartless.” What does it mean to be heartless? A mother abandoning her son, scheming to burn a five-year-old to secure her biological son’s inheritance.A brother pushing his sibling and conspiring with their mother to kill the one who cared for him. A grandfather sacrificing a girl to keep family secrets. No one was more heartless than the Reeds. The Reed family had pushed him into hell, and when he returned, he destroyed them. He once planned for Nathan and Carol to suffer forever. But for himself and Emily, he ended his revenge.
