When Olivia saw how much Tyler was looking after Jean, her expression darkened.Olivia felt that her dignity was at stake.At this moment, some of her friends approached her.They had become friends when Olivia was studying in Faulkland.Seeing that Tyler had clearly abandoned Olivia in favor of Jean, her friends started to complain on her behalf."Did Mr. Larson dump you for that woman?" asked a strikingly beautiful woman among them.Olivia remained silent, looking really upset.Seeing that Olivia did not respond, the woman's expression changed. Then, she said in a serious tone, "We'll go teach her a lesson for you."Just as the woman was about to approach Jean, Olivia grabbed her hand."No, don't," she said.Among the three friends, one of them appeared more elegant than the others. She had long black hair. After glancing at Jean, she said in a low voice, "When Mr. Larson was introducing her earlier, he said she's his wife."Upon hearing this, Olivia's expression changed.
After hearing what Olivia said, Jean had a shocked expression on her face."What are you talking about?" Jean asked.Olivia looked at her sharply and said in a stern tone, "I said that you and Tyler have already divorced, and in Henkel, you even have …"Before Olivia could finish her sentence, a voice suddenly interrupted her from behind."Olivia Campbell!"The man's voice was exceptionally cold, sounding chilling to the ears."How dare you come up to Jean and spout nonsense in front of her!" Tyler barked.When Olivia heard that Tyler was accusing her of speaking nonsense, her expression changed. She spun on her heel to face him with disbelief written all over her face."Tyler, you know very well that I'm not spouting nonsense."Hearing this, Jean fixed her deep gaze on Tyler. Her eyes were already tinged red. Biting her lip, she asked softly, "Tyler, have we really divorced?"Her voice trembled as she asked.Tyler glanced at Olivia indifferently and redirected his gaze to J
Tyler's expression remained indifferent upon hearing Jean's question."I've already answered that question, haven't I?" he said in a deep voice.Hearing Tyler's response, Jean merely pursed her lips and asked softly, "But why do I get the feeling that Dr. Campbell wasn't lying?"She looked at Tyler warily with some fear in her eyes.When Tyler noticed her gaze, he furrowed his brows slightly. He finally decided not to hide the truth from Jean any longer.He stated coldly, "It's true. We're divorced."Jean was taken aback for a moment. She had been pretty confident in herself in front of Olivia just now. However, after hearing Tyler's confirmation, she felt her confidence plummet."Why?" she asked.Looking at Jean calmly, he said, "No specific reason. I just wanted to get divorced, so it happened."Tyler's expression remained unchanged as he answered the question. It looked as if the divorce had no emotional impact on him whatsoever.At that moment, Jean felt sadness well up i
Tyler gazed deeply at Jean and said in a low voice, "The current you is still you, but you can't remember anything from before."He continued, "Jean, if you still feel the same after you've remembered everything, then we can remarry."After Tyler finished speaking, he drove the car into the villa's parking garage.He opened the car door and got out.Meanwhile, Jean remained seated in the passenger seat.She watched sadly as Tyler walked away.Jean took a deep breath and opened the car door to get out. Just as Tyler was about to head inside, she jogged to catch up to him and said, "Honey …"After calling him that, Jean remembered that Tyler had just admitted that they were already divorced.She then bit her lip and looked at Tyler, who was standing before her. He had stopped walking. Jean couldn't help but feel relieved at that. Then, she walked up to him and earnestly said, "But the doctors said that I might never get my memories back."Tyler gazed at Jean faintly and asked
When Jean heard Tyler's voice, she calmed down for some reason.She immediately got up. While hugging her pillow, she went to open the door and walked out of her room.Looking at Tyler, she said, "I'm a bit scared. Can I sleep in your room?"When Tyler saw how pale and scared Jean looked, he furrowed his brows. Then, he nodded slightly and turned to lead them into his room.Jean followed behind him and took her place on the couch.Tyler had already closed the balcony door and drawn the curtains. They could only hear the sound of rain pattering outside without seeing the flashing lightning.Jean felt much more settled here.She lay on the couch quietly and thought about the fact that Tyler needed a lot of rest due to his poor health. She quickly said, "Honey …"Jean paused before correcting herself, "Tyler, you should sleep early."Tyler furrowed his brows when he noticed Jean change the way she addressed him. Disappointment flashed in his eyes. He hummed in agreement and didn'
Tyler glanced indifferently at Jean. Her words caused a stir in his heart.In a disinterested tone, he asked, "Jean, you seem very keen on disrupting my rest. Don't you want me to get better?"Jean was taken aback by that. She checked the time and realized that it was rather late.Tyler must not have slept well either.Jean immediately covered her mouth and muttered, "Sorry. I won't ask you any more questions."Tyler nodded nonchalantly and closed his eyes without glancing at Jean anymore.When Jean saw that he had shut his eyes, she pursed her lips. Disappointment flashed in her eyes.Fortunately, she managed to regain her composure.She lay back on the couch and closed her eyes for a short while. Eventually, she fell asleep.Jean woke up earlier than Tyler the next morning.When Jean saw that Tyler was still sound asleep, she got up carefully and put her slippers on. She couldn't help but cast a quick glance at Tyler.Once she saw that Tyler was showing no signs of waking
When Jean saw Olivia step inside, she answered calmly, "Mrs. Spencer went to bring Dorian to school. Did you need something from her?"Olivia shook her head and said softly, "No, not really."Then, she extended a gift box to Jean. Jean glanced at it but didn't take it. She still felt wary around Olivia.Seeing that Jean had no intention of accepting the gift box, Olivia grabbed Jean's hand and forced her to take it."Ms. Michaels, I came here to apologize to you today," Olivia said.Jean's expression changed slightly upon hearing that. She did not understand why Olivia was suddenly singing a different tune.Even since Jean had been by Tyler's side, Olivia had harbored nothing but a strong dislike toward her."Dr. Campbell, are you running a fever or something? You seem to be confused," Jean said.It was difficult for anyone to change their negative impression of another person, after all.As such, Jean did not think that the conflict between her and Olivia from last night had
Olivia was extremely surprised when she heard what Tyler said. She hadn't expected Tyler to dismiss her with such an excuse.They had been getting along relatively well before this."Tyler, you and Ms. Michaels are already divorced. She's even engaged to Mr. Jacobs. You may be able to hide the truth from her now, but you can't hide it from her forever," Olivia said.Tyler had an indifferent expression on his face. "I don't like subordinates who don't follow the rules. Olivia, you've ignored my advice several times. As such, keeping you around serves no purpose to me. All you'll end up doing is causing me trouble," he said coldly.Olivia was stunned by that.She looked at Tyler deeply with eyes filled with surprise.She didn't think that Tyler would consider her someone who served him no purpose at all."I've been tending to your illness diligently this whole time. How could you consider me useless after all I've done for you?" she asked.Tyler looked at Olivia indifferently and
Even though Lukas was now back together with her, Jenny could clearly feel that their relationship could never return to the way it had been in the past. After spending some time with Lukas, Jenny felt that Lukas' heart no longer belonged to her.Once Conner and Robin were done packing up Alina's belongings at the hospital, they made their way to Robin's car. 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
After Alina passed away, her body was taken to the funeral home the next morning.Alina had instructed Conner to keep her funeral simple after her death.After Alina was hospitalized, Conner showed her a grave site according to her wishes.A van from the funeral home came to the hospital the next morning to take Alina's body to the funeral home.Upon hearing the news, Jean and Tyler rushed to the hospital and accompanied Robin there.On the way to the funeral home, Tyler tried to call Terence. However, Terence did not answer.Tyler had to call Wilson to inform Terence of what had happened.Only a handful of relatives and friends attended the funeral to pay their respects to Alina.With Jean and Tyler's help, Alina's funeral wasn't much trouble to set up.Terence received the news of Alina's death in the afternoon. Only then did he rush to the funeral home.When Terence arrived, Alina's remains had already been cremated and placed in an urn.He walked over to Robin. When he s
Robin's call managed to go through, but no one answered her call even after a long while.Robin gradually tightened the grip she had on her phone. 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. Her heart quivered in fear for a moment.She suddenly felt insecure.Robin hummed in acknowledgment and asked, "Is Ms. Blake not doing well?"Robi
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
