Hearing what Tyler said, Jean felt more relaxed."Mom … Mom." From downstairs, Dorian’s voice could be heard calling for Jean.Upon hearing his voice, Jean quickly pushed Tyler away and walked out of her room with a blushing face. When she saw Dorian carrying a backpack up the stairs, she rushed to him and took the backpack from him.When he noticed that Jean’s face had turned all red, Dorian’s expression changed. He immediately said softly, "Mom, what happened? Why is your face so red?"Jean was initially stunned when she heard this question. Then, she patted her cheeks, took a deep breath, and answered, "Nothing, Dorian." She felt a bit guilty when she said those words."Maybe Ms. Michaels caught a cold," said Mrs. Spencer from downstairs, as she recalled that Jean had come back with wet hair. Then, Mrs. Spencer said to Jean, "Ms. Michaels, please wait here. I'll make you a bowl of chicken soup." Right when Jean was about to say no, Mrs. Spencer was already heading t
Mrs. Spencer hadn't seen such a bright smile on Tyler's face for a long time. Seeing them getting along so well, and seeing Tyler looking so happy, she felt joyful as well. After they had dinner, Tyler gave Dorian a break, so he didn't have to study Faulkish tonight.Mrs. Spencer saw Jean preparing some fruit for Dorian downstairs. She smiled and said, "Ms. Michaels, ever since you came, I've noticed that Mr. Tyler and Mr. Dorian are both much happier."When you were in Amverton, Mr. Dorian wanted to call you every morning, but he was worried about disturbing you, so he never did. Now, seeing you able to be by his side, I truly feel happy." Listening to Mrs. Spencer's words, Jean was stunned for a moment, and she whispered, "I was wrong before. I shouldn't have left Dorian, and I won't do it again in the future." Jean made the same promise as Tyler had made to her. From now on, Tyler wouldn't abandon her, and she wouldn't abandon Dorian either.Upon hearing Jean's words, Mrs.
Tyler gazed at Jean and saw that her eyes were filled with sincerity. He could clearly observe fear on her face.He said lowly, "Okay, I will do my best to stay alive. But to stay alive, it is necessary to take medicine diligently. So, it's time for me to take my medicine."She was initially stunned upon hearing this. Then, she quickly got up."Oh, I forgot. I'll go get your medicine for you," said Jean before hurrying downstairs.Seeing Jean speed off, a slight smile appeared on Tyler's face.Jean went to the medicine cabinet downstairs to find Tyler's medicine. However, after some searching, she could only find the medicine he used to take before.The medicine that Dr. Campbell had recently delivered had not been used before, but now it had disappeared.She searched anxiously, as she clearly remembered putting the medicine back in its original place after reading the instructions.Mrs. Spencer walked over from the kitchen, noticing that Jean seemed to be searching for somethi
When Jean heard what Tyler said, her face turned sad. She looked at him with a serious expression and asked softly, "When will you marry me again?"Tyler raised an eyebrow slightly and said calmly, "Let's talk about this later."Upon hearing his response, Jean looked even sadder. She gazed at him intently and said, "You've already told me about our past, and I don't care about that. I've chosen to forgive you. But why won't you marry me again?"This was something that Jean was very concerned about.Tyler looked at her and asked, "You really want to get married to me again?"She nodded sincerely and said, "Yes, I do. I feel anxious and burdened being with you without an official status. I'm afraid that one day you might not want me anymore, and I'll have nowhere to turn."Upon hearing her words, Tyler smiled slightly and reassured her, "Don't worry. I don't plan to leave you for now."She quickly retorted, "You said 'for now.' Mr. Larson, are you waiting to fully recover and th
From Tyler's point of view, those few months he had gone through were tougher than the five years he spent raising Dorian back in Amverton.Many years had gone by.Right now, he was feeling rather calm and composed as he thought about this matter.Upon hearing Tyler’s words, Jean sighed and whispered, "Tyler, I've already forgotten all those things. When you bring them up now, I don't feel anything at all."She gently bit her lip and said softly, "I only know you took good care of Dorian. What happened between us all those years ago, it seems like it doesn't really matter anymore." Despite the fact that they had nothing to do with each other, Tyler spent 60 million dollars to buy Jean. She was just his ex-wife, but he was willing to go this far.What she could see now was that Tyler was taking good care of Dorian. So, she felt that he was a responsible person. No matter what had happened in the past between them, he had sacrificed a lot for her.Jean took a deep breath and gaze
Seeing Tyler's disapproving look, Jean laughed awkwardly. "I won't fall asleep immediately, anyway. It'll eventually air-dry," she said.Upon hearing Jean's words, Tyler sighed and said, "The weather has been getting chilly, so you can't do as you did before. Plus, you were only discharged from the hospital not long ago." As he continued, Tyler looked at Jean, full of concern. "Stand up."Jean pursed her lips. She noticed the serious look on Tyler's face, and she thought that he was going to kick her out."What's wrong?" she asked.Tyler gazed at Jean intently and said, "Get up. I'll blow-dry your hair for you."Jean perked up at his offer. Immediately, she got out of bed and followed Tyler into the bathroom.She stood in front of Tyler as he blow-dried her hair. From the reflection of the mirror in front of her, she could see every expression on Tyler's face.He was such a gentle person. Jean couldn't understand why she had divorced him before.Tyler was tall, about a head
With her lips pursed tight, Jean fell into silence.Tyler glanced at her dazed expression. "It's getting late. You should sleep soon."Biting her lip, Jean reached out to grab Tyler's hand. "Tyler …"Tyler stopped and looked at her, confused. "What's wrong?"Jean took a deep breath as if she were gathering her courage. Looking at Tyler, she asked in a quiet voice, "What about now?"Tyler didn't quite understand her question.Noticing his confusion, Jean took another deep breath and raised her voice.She asked, "What about now? Do you want to keep me by your side, or do you want to push me away?"Upon hearing her words, Tyler was stunned for a moment. After a while, he relaxed.In truth, Tyler was more worried than Jean.He pulled Jean into his embrace and assured her, saying, "Jean, I know you don't remember much, but I want you to know that I can't reject you when you're drawing closer to me." Tyler used to feel bitter about how Jean never took any initiative for his sake
Mrs. Spencer was certain that she locked the doors before heading to bed last night. She was confused, but she figured Tyler may have unlocked the door earlier this morning. Not putting further thought into it, Mrs. Spencer left with Dorian.In the yard, they found that the gate had been left ajar. This confused Mrs. Spencer even more. Upstairs, Tyler couldn't find Jean in her room. Having realized this, his heart dropped. Jean was unfamiliar with the environment as she hadn't left the house since she came here.On top of that, she also had a language barrier. How would she find her way around all alone? Anything could happen to her. Tyler returned to his room with a somber expression and gave Jean a call.It took a long time before Jean finally picked up. "Honey …"Interrupting her, Tyler asked sternly, "Where are you now?"Jean answered nervously, "I may have gotten lost in the park. Can you pick me up?" Tyler took a deep breath, his expression grim."Jean Micha
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
