If I were Yours Chapter 557 Pale in Comparison
Jean was well aware that Chris and William were incredibly busy.Her matter was something personal. It certainly didn't deserve as much attention as the tasks they had to attend to."Sure. Focus on your work first. I'll wait for your call," she said.After that, she hung up.Yvette played it cool and casually glanced at Jean's phone screen. Unfortunately for her, Jean was using a privacy screen protector. She raised her eyebrows in mild surprise, no longer stealing any glances in Jean's direction.Jean stared ahead after ending the call.She said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Things should be hectic for Mr. Jacobs at this time. Your grandmother is in the hospital, and Ms. Stirling is a tough nut to crack."Yvette sighed in frustration."Those women have too many bad tricks up their sleeves. They just have to ruin things every year."Helplessness was written all over her face.Then, she pursed her lips and chuckled. "Don't tell me that you're taking a pass on Toby because of ou
If I were Yours Chapter 558 The Wedding Photos in the Study
Jean didn't tell Yvette the whole truth, but she didn't lie either.Finn had indeed mentioned that Toby was a clean freak.Jean was well aware of her own shortcomings as well.Her life had gotten tainted ever since she replaced Joyce and married Tyler.Upon hearing Jean's words, Yvette was stunned into silence for a short while.It turned out that Jean had been hung up on that issue, after all.Any woman would feel inferior if they were in the same situation as Jean.If Jean felt that she was not good enough for Toby, it meant that she must care about Toby to some degree.After coming to that conclusion, Yvette couldn't help but look surprised."Jean, does that mean you've deliberately distanced yourself from my brother because of that?"Smiling faintly, Jean said softly, "I didn't do anything deliberately. I just want to maintain an appropriate distance with him."Jean looked at Yvette as she continued in a low voice, "Would you like to come in for some tea?"Yvette nodded
If I were Yours Chapter 559 Their Missing Mother
Yvette raised an eyebrow slightly. After walking out of Jean's study, she felt a tremendous amount of pressure on Toby's behalf.Tyler and Jean were connected by their son, after all.Meanwhile, Toby was merely someone Jean owed a debt of gratitude to from the past. This debt seemed somewhat tenuous.Jean smiled a little as she watched Yvette walk out of the study. She asked softly, "So, how about staying over for dinner later? The cook here used to work for the Larsons, so the food's pretty great."Upon hearing this, Yvette raised her brows and asked in a hushed tone, "Jean, you're still in touch with the Larsons?"Nodding, Jean replied softly, "Yes. Dorian's with Tyler now, so it's best to maintain some contact with them. It'll be more convenient for me to ask about how Dorian's doing as well."Smiling, Yvette replied, "Yeah, that makes sense."Jean looked at her for a moment before saying in an exceptionally calm tone, "So it seems that a relationship between me and Toby is i
If I were Yours Chapter 560 A Connection With the Larsons
Yvette stayed at Teak Villa for dinner that evening.After dinner, Jean saw Yvette off at the door.It wasn't until Yvette's car left the driveway that Jean turned away and went back inside.Jean sat on the couch and waited.It was almost ten o'clock when she finally received a call from Chris.As soon as she answered the call and placed the phone next to her ear, she heard Chris apologize. "I'm sorry, Ms. Michaels. There was a tricky situation to handle here today, so the meeting got delayed."Jean furrowed her brows slightly upon hearing that."Hasn't Tyler contacted you guys yet?" she asked calmly.When Tyler was around, there were hardly any major issues at the company.A meeting that had gone on until this late meant that intense discussions had been involved.Chris hesitated for a moment before saying in a low voice, "Mr. Larson hasn't contacted any of us yet. Mrs. Larson mentioned that we shouldn't disturb him by bringing up company matters to him."Frowning, Jean rep
If I were Yours Chapter 561 She Doesn't Want to Bother Her
Jean sighed when she noticed Chris was silent. "It's all connected, isn't it?"After a long pause, Chris finally said, "Ms. Michaels, Mr. Larson doesn't want you to get involved with this."The Jacobses aren't people you should offend. Plus, Ms. Skylar's disappearance has nothing to do with the Larson family. Ms. Michaels, you don't have to worry about that."Chris continued, "But you mustn't get involved in such things. Mr. Larson isn't here, so if something happens, he won't be able to protect you."Jean took a deep breath when she heard this, and she clenched her hands. Whether she wanted to or not, she was already involved in this matter.From the moment she went to the Jacobs' residence, she was already thrown into the matter. She took a deep breath before saying, "I know how to handle this. Thank you."Upon hearing Jean's dismissal, Chris sighed. "You don't have to thank me. Ms. Michaels, if you encounter any problems, you can always come to me."Jean pursed her lips. "I

Robin nodded, her gaze calm as she looked at Jean. "I have some things to do, so I won't hold you up any longer. Goodbye," she said. Jean nodded in response, sighing as she watched Robin leave.Just as she was leaving the building, her phone rang. It was Toby.Jean glanced at her phone and frowned. After getting into her car, she hesitated for a moment before picking up the call."Mr. Jacobs, is something wrong?"Jean's voice was distant and cold.He let out a sigh, then said in a low voice, "I wanted to ask if Finn told you anything yesterday before you left."Now I'm sure he did. Jean, you don't believe him, do you? Do you think I befriended you with ulterior motives?"Jean furrowed her brows at his words. "I'm not sure I understand, Mr. Jacobs," she replied.Toby was silent on the other end of the phone.No matter how idiotic Finn was, he wouldn't be dumb enough to tell Toby, right?Jean tightened her hand on her phone as she pretended not to know anything.After a whil
If I were Yours Chapter 563 The Larsons' Mess
At that point, Jean definitely understood what he was trying to say. Taking a deep breath, she asked, "How do you want me to help you?"Toby said in a low voice, "Let's talk after I return to Henkel."With that, he hung up the call.Jean didn't bother calling back. Instead, she felt a headache coming on. After gathering herself together, she went to the studio to work.Yvette had already arrived when Jean entered. She noticed Jean's tired demeanor and asked softly, "What's wrong, Jean? Are you sick?"Shaking her head, Jean replied quietly, "It's nothing."Yvette pursed her lips before asking again, "Did my brother call you?"Jean nodded. "Yeah, he did. I'll cooperate in the investigation of your mother's disappearance." Yvette's expression changed before she replied, "Jean, listen to me … I …"Her voice was anxious, but Jean just looked at her indifferently."Take your time. There's no need to rush."Yvette's eyes were fixated on Jean as she said, "Jean, I was just worr
If I were Yours Chapter 564 A Painful Loss
"Michaels Group is still recovering. If you get involved in that mess, it's more than likely to affect us as well," Timothy said, staring at Jean seriously.Jean frowned. "I can get first priority if I buy the Larsons' assets, and I won't use any money from Michaels Group. You don't have to worry about that."Timothy's expression changed as he tried to reason with her. "Jean, you're about to compete against other companies. Do you really think that's easy?"Plus, the Jacobses have been snapping up most of the assets that the Larsons are selling. They're doing this because it's the only way they can continue to grow in Henkel. Aren't you good friends with Mr. Jacobs?"You've already divorced Tyler, so don't make any more wrong decisions."Jean's expression immediately darkened as she replied coldly, "These are my own issues; you don't need to meddle."Timothy froze. Looking at Jean with a dark gaze, he said seriously, "If you use your own money to buy Larson Group's assets, then y
