Jean paused for a moment. Her expression remained neutral as she glanced at Lilian casually.

"Lilian, what would you like to talk about?" she asked.

Taking a deep breath, Lilian walked up to Jean with a smile.

"I know about what Esme did to you. I'm actually the one who persuaded Mrs. Vale to change her testimony."

Jean regarded Lilian indifferently, remaining unaffected by the news.

She replied in a somewhat mocking tone, "Is that so? Do you want me to thank you, then?"

Lilian replied, "You don't have to thank me so soon, Jean. I know you wouldn't be willing to talk to me if I hadn't helped you with anything. I only have one request for now. I want you to leave Tyler."

Jean raised an eyebrow at that. Her lips curled into a cold smile as she said indifferently, "Leaving him isn't something I'll do just because you've asked me nicely. It seems you haven't been able to hold Tyler down recently. Otherwise, I'm sure you wouldn't be here discussing this with me."

Lilian took a deep

    After returning to her car, Jean glanced at the spot where Lilian had stood a moment ago.Seeing that Lilian had turned back to the hospital, a mocking glint flashed in her eyes.It was no wonder that Lilian had managed to stay close to Tyler for such a long time.Lilian was undoubtedly a clever woman.She had her own grudges against Esme, and it was likely that she had been secretly collecting evidence against her own sister.Lilian had managed to drag Jean into her plan in the end. She created an enticing offer to make Jean divorce Tyler.Jean and Tyler had already signed the divorce papers, after all. As such, the conditions Lilian had stated were already met and didn't affect Jean in the slightest.However, Jean noted that a woman like Lilian concealed her true intentions too well.Taking a deep breath, Jean tightened her grip on the steering wheel.She couldn't let Lilian end up marrying Tyler in the end.…After Lilian and Jean reached an agreement, Lilian returned to

    Due to genetic defects, men in the Larson family had a history of falling ill and encountering health problems.Considering Lilian's health issues, it was unthinkable for the Larsons to accept her as part of their family.Moreover, Lilian had portrayed herself as an overly kind person over the years.It made Coleen dislike her even more.In Coleen's eyes, no one in the world was really that good of a person. Even if such a person existed, she was certain that they wouldn't be like Lilian.Lilian sucked in a deep breath upon hearing what Coleen had said. However, she maintained her composure. Even though she felt humiliated, she didn't display any anger."Aunt Coleen, you may have been mistaken. I don't have any hidden intentions. All I want to do is care for Tyler. He's an old friend of mine, so I'm genuinely concerned about his health," Lilian replied.Lilian glanced at Tyler as if seeking his support, but the man never looked her way.Lilian could only sigh in frustration and

    The guard glanced at Lilian, gesturing for her to go.With a sigh, Lilian left.Chris stayed by Tyler's side for the whole night.At nine in the morning, when the hospital staff had clocked in, Tyler requested to be discharged from the hospital.Chris did not stop him and helped him with the procedures.After that, Tyler went straight to Larson Residence.Coleen knew that Tyler wasn't used to staying in the hospital. Tyler's mental state seemed to have improved. In a low voice, she said, "I contacted a neurology specialist overseas."She'll return to the country soon. A lot of hospitals are making their offers to her, hoping to hire her. I've already fought for her to come to our hospital."She can be your private doctor that way, and she'll be specially tasked to check on you for a while."Tyler looked expressionless as she spoke. He nodded lightly. "Okay."Then, he tugged at Dorian's hand and walked toward the study.Coleen sighed in exasperation.Judy looked at Tyler in

    Yvette felt that there was something amiss about that woman's attitude and got up as well.Seeing Jean and Toby talking and laughing with the people around them evoked an intense hatred in Alison.She and Emmett ended up like this because of Jean.Alison had a dark look on her face as she watched that woman.Clutching the wine glass in her hand, she walked toward Jean."Jean Michaels!" she called out.When Jean heard that, she turned.The moment she did, Alison splashed her wine all over her.Toby had fast reflexes and pulled Jean toward his side.Jean was wearing a white suit today. It didn't matter if the wine spilled on Toby, as long as Jean was spared.Toby held Jean in his arms, most of his body taking the hit.His face was grim as he looked at the Hosk family's representative.The representative's facial expression shifted at once as he said, "What are you doing, Ms. Matthias?"When Alison saw that Toby was protecting Jean, she growled. "What else can you do besides

    Alison's face twisted in anger at Jean's words. She yelled, "Didn't catch your eye?"How could you say that when you seduced him? Of course, a mere director like him wouldn't catch your eye now that you're latching on to the Jacobses."Jean raised her eyebrows, coldness flashing through her gaze. "The person who let you down is Emmett, not me. There's nothing between us. Don't blame me for being unable to keep your man by your side."Toby looked coldly at the disheveled Alison. With the employees' help, he cleaned up the mess on himself.Looking at Alison coldly, he asked, "So, you're Emmett's fiancée?"His eyes darkened. "I don't know who the unlucky one is for him to have met you. Since Emmett has ulterior motives toward my partner, I'll never let him into my company."As Toby spoke, he looked at the employee next to him and said, "Call Emmett at once and tell him to fuck off. Someone who can't handle his own family's affairs won't be able to bring much benefit to my company."

    Pursing her lips, Jean said, "He's probably too indecisive. That's why he and Alison have become like this."Before they became enemies, Jean had heard Emmett calling Alison's name when he was drunk.He didn't love Jean as much as he thought, and his feelings for Alison weren't completely absent.They had been together for five years, after all.They had already bought a house and lived together for a while.If they felt nothing for each other, they wouldn't have moved in together.Yvette saw that there was a red stain on Jean's sleeve. It was obviously from the red wine. She said at once, "Jean, you should wash up with my brother."Jean waved her hands hurriedly. "No, it's fine. I'll just make do."Since Jean insisted, Yvette did not press on.…Alison was escorted out by the Hosks' guard.At the door, she met Lilian.Lilian was standing at the entrance.

    After getting her hand pushed away, Lilian's gaze turned dark.The Hosks were very influential in this circle.Alison must have done something rash to have been escorted out.Alison had already evoked the Hosks' wrath.The Matthiases were only scholars. They didn't really have power. Hence, Lilian wasn't really afraid of Alison.As the Pages' daughter born out of wedlock, Lilian's life had always been under scrutiny.Lilian said exasperatedly, "Alison, I was just giving you some advice. I didn't think you'd be so defensive. "I haven't wronged you at all. You don't need to rub salt in my wounds. But forget it now. I won't hold a grudge since you're angry."Then, she sighed and walked toward the living room.Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a familiar car driving toward her. She immediately paused in her footsteps.Not long after, Tyler walked out from the car.When she saw him, Lilian immediately walked over.Tyler had brought Dorian along to attend the banquet.Lilia

    "Mom!"Dorian looked at Jean happily. He didn't think that he'd see her here today.But Tyler's expression was much colder.He only looked at Jean for a short while before looking away.Toby walked over and stopped in front of Tyler with a smile."Hello, Mr. Larson. This is our first time meeting each other."Toby held his hand out.Tyler looked at his hand with a cold expression on his face.Toby continued to raise his hand in the air just like that. He didn't feel awkward at all.Tyler gazed at him coldly, and Toby looked back at him fearlessly.After a couple seconds, Tyler finally shook Toby's hand. "I've heard about you. My child's mother would bring you up sometimes."Jean raised an eyebrow when she heard Tyler describe her that way.She had never brought up Toby in front of Tyler.Toby was calm as he looked at Jean, who was holding Dorian's hand. "Jean talks about you often too."Tyler narrowed his eyes as he looked at Toby coldly.Jean calmed down quickly.Doria

Robin drove them to her apartment. Upon seeing where they were heading, Conner said to Robin softly, "Roo, I won't be going back to your apartment."Upon hearing this, Robin looked confused. 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. He had a tender expression on his face as he said, "Don't worry, I know Terence very well. I'm certain he'll marr

    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. Clearly, she did not understand the meaning of Robin's words.Robin took a deep breath to control her own emotions and continued softly, "I was referring to finding a man who takes

    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
