Jean and Tyler arrived at Henkel International Kindergarten to pick up Dorian together.

Dorian saw them from afar and ran toward them with a smile. "Dad, Mom." The child was all smiles.

Jean smiled gently and carressed Dorian's head with a happy smile.

Bending down to pick Dorian up in his arms, Tyler said gently, "Let's go home."

Dorian nodded obediently. Looking at Jean, he asked, "Mom, you'll stay with us tonight, right?"

Nodding, Jean murmured in agreement.

She felt very warm when Dorian said the word "home".

As Dorian was too happy, he kept talking to Jean all the way home as they both sat in the back seat.

Tyler stopped the car in front of Jean's residential complex. Jean was stunned and confused when she saw where they had stopped.

"We're here to pick up some of your things," Tyler said as he unbuckled his seatbelt and got down to open the door for Jean and Dorian.

Jean was a little surprised.

He explained calmly, "If not, you'll be too busy as you'll have to come

As such, Chris sent all his work documents to Teak Villa for him to work on.When the medicine was ready, Jean took it upstairs.Tyler was going through the work documents in his study with a serious look on his handsome face.Jean knocked on the door before she walked in. Tyler looked up and immediately put down the document in his hand when he saw her."Is the medicine ready?" he asked in a quiet and gentle voice.Jean nodded and saw a lot of work documents on his desk as she got nearer. With a darkened gaze, she said quietly, "The doctor asked you to rest well."She had no idea how long it would take for Tyler to go through all these documents.She carried the medicine in a tray, walked in front of Tyler, and handed him the medicine.Tyler held the glass and finished the strong herbal infusion in

    Jean walked back to her own room, all while thinking about what Tyler said.She really yearned for a home to compensate for the pain that her original family inflicted upon her.But she didn't dare to hope that she was the apple of Tyler's eye.Late at night, Jean was suffering from insomnia again.She heard someone opening her bedroom door. A shadow passed over her face, and she frowned.When the door was opened, Jean took a deep breath and clutched the blanket tightly."Who's that?" she asked, looking a little anxious. It was dark, so she couldn't see who came in.When Tyler heard the nervousness in her voice, he replied in a quiet voice, "It's me."Jean let out a huge sigh of relief when she heard his voice. She said in a somber tone, "What are you doing in my room?"Besides, she had locked the room from the inside. Tyler unlocked the door and came in anyway.Tyler walked to the headboard of Jean's bed, turned on the lamp, and threw the key on the nightstand as he lay down

    Tyler's explanation was as good as none. It confused Dorian further. "Mom, what does Dad mean?"Pursing her lips, Jean glared at Tyler. She gently explained, "Dad was talking nonsense. Don't believe him."Dorian looked at Jean with a serious expression and asked, "Why can Dad sleep with you when I can't?"Jean was very embarrassed, but Dorian didn't know any better. "Because …"Albert approached Dorian. "Because you're still a child, Dorian. You'll understand when you're older. When you're all grown up, you'll have your own wife, family, and children. All these are very natural, so don't overthink it."Dorian followed Albert back to the dining table with a confused look.Jean was finally saved. She walked to the dining table and glared at Tyler unhappily. She had decided to ignore Tyler today.Tyler was all smiles.Jean went to prepare Tyler's medicine after breakfast.  It could be due to the fact that she didn't sleep well last night, but she was distracted when she was prep

    Now that Judy had made a move, the tables were turned.Jean read the news with a frown.When Tyler saw her somber expression, he went to her and said softly, "You're already done with the filming. You can stay home and wait until the storm passes."Jean sighed. She hadn't expected Judy to handle things this way.The issue between her and Joyce was only going to worsen.Nodding, Jean said, "It seems like that's the only thing I can do."She handed the bowl to the maid standing next to her.Tyler saw that it was almost time for him to go to work. He looked at her longingly. "Why don't you come to the company with me?"Jean refused at once. "I'd rather stay here and catch up on sleep."Tyler considered the fact that she hadn't slept well last night and nodded. "Alright. Stay put and wait for your husband to come back."It sounded so natural when he said the word "husband". Jean sighed and said, "I haven't agreed to marry you again, Tyler. Don't flatter yourself."With a snort,

    Joyce sobbed pitifully, looking at Jean with tear-filled eyes."Jean, I was wrong."Jean's pupils darkened, watching how Joyce gripped her arm. "Do you know why?"Joyce nodded. "Yes, I do. We're sisters. It shouldn't be like this. But all these years, I've been targeting you. I was wrong for that."Let me have a way out, Jean. I've already lost Tyler. I don't want to lose everything in the music industry."Jean looked at her calmly, unmoved.Joyce had no idea what she'd done wrong.All these years, if it weren't for Joyce wanting to make her disappear from this world, Jean wouldn't have had to be a marriage replacement.Jean thought that Joyce was the one person in her family who could provide her with a little warmth. But in the end, Joyce wanted her to die.With just this alone, Jean and Joyce's relationship was broken forever."Get up. I'm not the one who has the final say in all this. It might work better if you beg the Larsons."Jean pulled her arm out from Joyce's gras

    The Elstons' engagement party?Bewilderment glimmered in Jean's eyes. At the thought of Sydney and Glenn, she walked toward the table and opened the invitation. It was a photo of them together.Jean had been so busy with Dorian that she'd forgotten the plans between Sydney and Glenn.When Coleen saw how grim she looked when she held the invitation, she asked, "Why? Do you know them?"Jean nodded. "Yes, I do. Sydney has helped me before. Naturally, I know Glenn."Coleen nodded. "Well, since you know them, you and Tyler can take Dorian with you. Sydney is going to inherit her grandfather's fortune. Staying in touch with her will not harm us."After all these years with the Larsons, I'm sure that you know the rules of etiquette. You won't embarrass us, yes?"Jean pursed her lips. She didn't really like Coleen saying "the Larsons".She looked at the time. It was already past 11, so she said, "I have to give Tyler his medicine."Coleen frowned, looking unhappy. However, Jean said n

    The words "mother and wife" aroused Tyler's interest.He rested his gaze on Jean with a smile. "How are you going to handle this, then?"When Jean saw the smile on his face, she realized that she'd misspoken.She wasn't even his wife.Her low spirits weren't even because of Coleen. She said lightly, "This has nothing to do with Coleen. She wants us to take her place and go to Sydney and Glenn's engagement party."Tyler nodded. "Indeed, we should."In the past two years, the Larsons and the Elstons had been working together. Some of their projects were still ongoing. Naturally, Tyler received an invitation as well.But he hadn't expected that Coleen would give her invitation to Jean and get her to take her place.It seemed that although Coleen did not admit that Jean was her future daughter-in-law, she was beginning to slowly accept her.Tyler was worried that Coleen would make things hard for Jean. But now, it seemed that the situation from those three years would not happen t

    Tyler put down the magazine in his hands and said shamelessly, "Through the window."Jean looked at him wordlessly and went to the door, opening it. "Get out."Tyler gazed at her intently and did not move from the bed. In fact, he covered himself with the blanket."I'm feeling a little dizzy, Jean. I'm going to sleep."In all these years, Jean had never seen Tyler be so stubborn.She walked over, wanting to pull him off the bed. However, he grabbed her tightly. "Don't make a fuss, Jean. We're husband and wife. Which pair of husband and wife don't sleep together?"Jean's eyes darkened. Gazing at him sharply, she said, "We're not husband and wife, Tyler. Don't forget, I wasn't the one who married you."Tyler raised his eyebrows and looked at her deeply. His tone grew serious. "But it was always you by my side. Whether it was five years ago or five years from now, it will always be you."Jean was moved when she heard that. She gradually stopped struggling and said, "So Lilian, Esm

Before she could ask why, Conner added softly, "I want to return to Swiree."Robin was taken aback for a moment. 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. As such, Robin had not expected to hear Conner tell her that he wanted to return to Swiree."Just stay here," Robin said.Upon hearing that, Conner sighed softly and

She tried to maintain her composure while holding the phone.After what seemed like ages, Terence finally answered her call."Roo, why are you still up?"Terence's gentle voice came through in the end. His tone was tinged with a hint of exhaustion.Upon hearing his voice, Robin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Seeing that Terence had ended up answering her call, she supposed there weren't any problems to worry about."Yeah, I haven't gone to sleep yet. I'm still—"Robin was about to tell Terence that she was still at the hospital.However, Terence quickly interjected, "I'm still at the hospital now."Upon hearing Terence's words, Robin unconsciously tightened her grip on her phone.

    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. She let out a calm smile and replied, "Well, then you'll have to spend quite some time waiting."Brian turned to look at Robin.

    Robin couldn't help looking surprised upon seeing Brian dressed in formal attire. He looked somewhat weary."Mr. Collins," Robin greeted.Brian nodded slightly in response and walked over to her side.He whispered, "I heard that Aunt Alina isn't doing very well, so I came to check on you guys. 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. Sure enough, Alina was already awake.Robin sat on the couch and felt a mix of emotions as she watched Conner care for Alina devotedly.Alina had finished her medicine for the day, and Conner needed to get her the newly prescribed medicine from the pharmacy. So, Robin stayed back to keep Alina company.Robin kept her gaze fixed on Alina's weary face and asked softly, "Mom, do you want me to end up like you?"Alina paused for a moment after listening to Robin as a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.

    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. He turned the engine on and drove off to the hospital to visit Monica.  Robin stood in the cor
