His strong grip on Jean’s wrist drew the attention of many crew members toward them.

Jean frowned, trying to free her wrist from Emmett's grasp. But he held on firmly.

Soon, Jean's wrist turned a pale white.

"Emmett, please mind yourself," Jean said sternly. Her gaze locked onto Emmett as she exerted force in return.

She tried to break free from his grasp.

Emmett looked at her expressionlessly, not letting go despite her struggles.

"It's been five years. You should be bolder now . Are you still afraid of me?"

Jean was momentarily stunned.

Just as she was about to speak, she noticed Tyler walking toward them from outside the studio.

Jean merely glanced at him briefly before swiftly retracting her gaze.

Tyler entered the studio and spotted the subtle confrontation between Jean and Emmett.

As his gaze landed on Emmett's tight grip on Jean's hand, his face grew cold.

"What scene are you two acting out?"

His voice was low as he looked at Emmett's hand, his ey

    Jean’s expression faded as she lowered her head and looked at the red marks on her wrist.  "I don't need you to remind me."  She hadn't forgotten.  And she could never forget it in this lifetime.  Jean's gaze turned cold, her eyes distant. She couldn't help feeling irritated by the strange looks she was receiving from those around her.Even though she had grown accustomed to this kind of scrutiny, her blood still boiled and her eyes still reddened in this situation.     Walking away from behind Tyler, she left the film set alone.  When Simone returned, she was puzzled when she noticed Jean leaving in such haste. She was about to approach her to inquire when she saw Emmett staring firmly at Jean.  By his side stood Tyler.   Seeing the two of them, Simone immediately understood why Jean looked so troubled.  She hurried over to Emmett’s side and whispered, "Why did you come here? Let's go."    Right now, Jean wanted nothing to do with either of them. Being Jean's long

    Jean left the film studio and hailed a taxi immediately.As she was about to close the car door, she felt a force stopping her.  Jean looked up, only to see Emmett standing by the car, preventing her from closing the door. His body was bent over as he tried to get in. The taxi driver, witnessing this scene, was left bewildered.  He asked, "Are you two together?"  "Yes," Emmett answered before Jean could speak. "We're going to Wesley Park."   Only then did the taxi driver retract his gaze and start the car.Jean sighed. Withdrawing her gaze from Emmett, she said softly, "Is this necessary?"  Their connection had already faded away.  Now, his persistence had lost its meaning.    Emmett casted a cold glance at Tyler, who was approaching from a distance.   "I find it necessary, so it is."  The driver had already started the car and driven away. When Tyler's figure gradually disappeared from Emmett's sight, he fixed his gaze on Jean and asked, "So, does my presence mak

    Jean's reaction delighted Emmett immensely.   As she placed her hand on the back of his hand, Emmett instantly grasped it. His gaze was burning as he looked at her.  He said, "I knew you'd choose me."   Jean remained silent.   Tyler had already gotten out of the car and was standing not far from them.   Guided by Emmett, Jean stepped out of the taxi.      Holding Jean's hand, Emmett’s lips curved into a smile.   "Mr. Larson, how did you manage to catch up? But it seems you're a bit late. Jean has already chosen me."      Tyler furrowed his brows, his expression growing increasingly grim. His gaze was fixed on Jean as if he was trying to find any sign of weakness in her expression.    But Jean remained calm throughout, even squeezing Emmett's hand slightly when Tyler's gaze locked onto her.  Tyler observed the subtle changes in Jean's actions, and his expression turned colder.  "You'll eventually come to me."   As he said these words, his voice held a strong sens

    Jean frowned as a hint of confusion flashed across her eyes, but she quickly caught on."Emmett, that’s not what I meant."Whether Alison had come between her and Emmett, Jean knew that she and Emmett were through. That was because she couldn’t overcome the emotional barrier within.  Alison was only an excuse she used to reject Emmett.At the moment, Emmett refused to listen to any other words from Jean.  Without listening to Jean, he turned around and said coldly, "I'll have Simone come pick you up. Stay right where you are."  After that, Emmett hailed a taxi and left.  Jean stood in place with a frown.  As expected, Simone arrived after several minutes. Upon seeing Jean standing in place, she said indifferently, "Get into the car."  After taking a deep breath, Jean got into the front passenger seat. She looked unpleasant throughout the journey.  While looking at Jean, Simone collected her thoughts and spoke.  "Jean, why don't you give Emmett a chance? He's decide

    "Jean, do I truly have no chance at all?"  Tyler's expression darkened a little, but his tone remained composed."You even gave Emmett a chance. Why not give me one?"While biting her lip gently, Jean teared up with emotions. "Mr. Larson, Emmett and I are rekindling our past romance. As for you, we're just acquaintances."She switched off the security monitor upon finishing her words, as she no longer had the courage to face Tyler.Tyler held the takeout bag and stood still for a long while before leaving.Only Jean could make him experience an unprecedented sense of defeat.Jean sat on the sofa in the living room for a long time before mustering up the courage to peer through the peephole.Tyler was no longer outside the door.Upon opening the door with dejection, she spotted a takeout bag at the entrance.She picked up the takeout bag in a daze and glanced in the direction of the corner. Upon seeing no sign of Tyler, she was certain that he had left.She gloomily brough

    Simone's soft voice carried a hint of guilt. Jean looked at Simone with confusion.  It never crossed her mind that the child had been born under the personal guidance of Bertha. She thought Simone felt guilty because of Bertha's matter. Thus, she smiled and spoke.  "I can only say that I have a connection with that child, but we weren't fated. Simone, I've never blamed any of you all these years." Jean added, "Besides, you shouldn't give Mrs. Walker the cold shoulder anymore. I'm sure she has tried her best already." Simone bit her lip and looked at Jean.  "Jean, actually, the child …"  She paused but continued upon noticing Jean's gaze on her. "Actually, you can have another child again."  Jean responded with a faint smile and replied calmly, "Perhaps it's because you've never been pregnant, so you don't quite understand. That child carried all my panic, surprises, and expectations throughout my pregnancy."Although she had only seen her child once, the special

    Tyler didn't receive any reply from Jean for the whole night.  No matter how hard Judy and Coleen had tried to persuade Tyler, he was determined to take Dorian back to Teak Villa.  On the way, Dorian fell asleep in the car.  After parking his car in the garage, Tyler carried Dorian out of the car.  Albert walked over and extended his arms to take Dorian.  "Mr. Larson, allow me."  Tyler shook his head and carried Dorian back to the bedroom before placing him on the bed.  He gazed silently at the fast-asleep Dorian, noticing a slight resemblance between Dorian's facial features and Jean's.  As his expression darkened, he tucked Dorian in before leaving the bedroom and heading to the study room.  Chris was returning from a business appointment when he received a call from Tyler. "Mr. Larson …"  Chris quickly answered the call.  Tyler's indifferent voice rang out. "Tell Cassie that 'The Secret' has failed to pass censorship."  Chris was confused upon hearing th

    "What does she mean?"  Cassie looked at Jean's retreating figure while gnashing her teeth.  Her manager quickly held her back.  "Don't argue with her. She's in a bad mood right now and just wants to target you. Don't fall for it." Cassie believed Chris revealed the matter to her because her opportunity had arrived.  She thought Tyler had decided to give up on Jean due to her unclear relationship with Emmett.  Thus, Jean's previous words were a great stimulus to Cassie.  She refused to admit that Jean was the reason Tyler had suddenly taken interest in her and signed her under Larson Group. "Jean, what exactly do you mean?"  Cassie ran after Jean and questioned her, disregarding the presence of the crew members on the set.  Upon seeing Cassie chasing after her angrily, Jean stopped in her tracks and smiled.  "I don't mean anything special. I'm just telling you to focus on acting and not overthink things."  After that, she turned around and said firmly to the crew

Then, she replied, "Dad, you really don't need to rush back home."Conner had already sold the family business in Swiree when Alina was hospitalized in Henkel.

    Robin's response was in no way problematic.From her response, it was clear how cautious and serious she was when dealing with matters of the heart.Brian sighed and looked at Robin deeply.However, Robin deliberately avoided Brian's gaze at this moment.She didn't want him to waste his time on her. Robin certainly didn't want Brian's friendship with Terence to be negatively affected because of her.Seeing that Robin was deliberately avoiding his gaze, Brian curled his lips into a small smile and said softly, "You don't need to be so wary of me. I'm not going to force you to help me."I'm glad to see that you're going steady with Terence. I'm looking forward to attending your guys' wedding."Upon hearing this, Robin pursed her lips lightly.

Don't be too upset if you can help it."Upon hearing this, Robin pursed her lips. She replied in a soft voice, "I already expected this to happen, so I'm not too upset by it. I just feel a bit helpless at the moment."Although Robin had already anticipated this outcome, she couldn't change it.Robin sighed as a hint of grief filled her eyes.Brian walked over to sit beside her. His tone was gentle as he said, "Death is inevitable for everyone, after all. People either die from old age or sickness. Try to take it easy."Aunt Alina probably wouldn't want you to be so upset either."Robin nodded and turned her gaze toward Brian. When she noticed that was wearing a suit, she asked, "Where we

    During her conversation with Alina, Robin had already tried her best to keep her emotions under control. She did not expect Alina to get so worked up.Robin simply didn't want Alina to use her past as an example to educate Robin.After all, everybody was living a different life.Robin would never settle for second best.Robin sat quietly as the doctor continued talking. But she didn't hear a word he said.  Noticing Robin's low spirits, Conner said softly to her after the doctor left, "Roo, don't burden yourself with all this. This day was bound to come sooner or later."Although Conner was trying to comfort Robin, his voice was hoarse and contained a hint of melancholy that he failed to conceal.Robin took a deep breath. With her reddened, teary eyes, she told Conner, "I shouldn't have argued with her knowing she was sick. With her current state, it's my fault that I insisted on my point."Conner sighed with a hint of helplessness in his expression. He avoided Robin's eyes and

    Robin took a deep breath and said softly, "Don't worry about Chandler. Terence will handle it."After all, Chandler raised Terence like a son despite not being blood-related. The bond between them was too strong for Terence to ignore."Just focus on getting better."Alina went silent for a while. Robin chose not to say anything further either.She wanted to end the discussion in Alina's silence. But to her surprise, Alina uttered hesitantly after a long pause, "No, Terence will not care about Chandler."If Terence helps Chandler out, Weiss Group will face setbacks. Terence prioritizes his interests above all else. He won't care about Chandler. I…"Robin watched Alina getting worked up as she continued talking. Robin couldn't help but feel bad.However, she couldn't pinpoint her feelings. Did she feel bad because after all these years, Alina still cared about Chandler? Or was it because Conner's effort was being overlooked by Alina?Even though Chandler was her biological father

    Conner had been working tirelessly to take care of the family. Even now that Alina fell ill, he cared for her selflessly."I should go back and check on your mom. If not, she'll wake up and find herself alone."Robin felt bad watching Conner's silhouette. She and Conner went back to the ward together.

    Terence was waiting at a traffic light, so his surroundings were noisy. As Robin's voice was very soft, Terence couldn't quite make out what she was saying.   "I'm heading to the hospital to check on her now. How are things with your mom?" Terence repeated his question to Robin again.  Robin went silent.  She had already decided to be with Terence, and he had also publicly clarified that nothing was happening between him and Monica. So, it would be childish of her to ask the question again because he had already made things clear.  Robin's lips were pressed together, and her expression had reverted back to normal. She said, "She's fine here. Don't worry about it."  She then murmured softly under her breath, "I'll call you back later. Drive safely."  As soon as she finished talking, she immediately ended the call.  Terence didn't give it much thought after Robin ended the call.
