Jean gazed at Tyler seriously. "I'm not sure why, but I don't feel as grounded as I did in Faulkland, even though everything here is familiar," she said while biting the corner of her lip.

During her time in Faulkland, Jean didn't understand the spoken language, yet she felt much more secure there.

Tyler paused, his hand still on the menu. "You want to go back to Faulkland? We could settle there if you want," he suggested.

Jean jolted at Tyler's words.

She then shook her head and replied, "No, I want to stay in Henkel."

Jean added in a low voice, "Though I can't remember much, this is where I grew up. Faulkland isn't my hometown, after all."

Knowing Jean was distressed, Tyler gently cupped her hand in his palm. "I'm here. If you're uncomfortable with anything, feel free to talk to me. Don't make assumptions on your own," he said softly.

Jean nodded.

She couldn't help but feel like she might've overreacted to the situation a moment ago, especially now that she was seeing Tyler's

    Sitting on Tyler's lap, Jean said in a serious tone, "After all, you brought me into the company. I'll end up embarrassing you if I don't take things seriously. I don't want that."No matter what, I have to work harder so that I can keep up with you," she continued, looking deeply into Tyler's eyes.As Tyler found himself drawn to the resolve in Jean's gaze, he tightened his arms around her. "Okay."Before returning to Henkel, Tyler was concerned about Jean's sensitivity to her surroundings. He couldn't shake off the worry, especially when Jean was already showing signs of overthinking during her first time meeting Lilian. Therefore, Tyler thought that keeping Jean busy with work might take her mind off things.While Tyler hugged Jean, he reached out and checked the wound on her hand. "Where did you keep the ointment? I'll apply it for you," he said. Jean then quickly brought the ointment to him.Catching sight of Tyler's focused expression while he gently applied the ointment o

    After leaving Tyler's office, Jean went to her own workstation.She sat down in her chair and noticed a piece of cake placed on her desk. It sparked a hint of curiosity in her eyes.Jean lifted the cake and examined it. Soon after, Robin walked out of her office. Seeing Jean inspecting the cake, she smiled and said, "I saw a dessert shop when I went down earlier. I thought you might like the cake, so I bought it for you." The cake was beautifully decorated. The pastel colors gave it a girlish aesthetic.Jean felt a little touched."Thank you, Robin."Robin smiled faintly and said, "I heard that eating desserts will improve one's mood. Why don't you give it a try?"Pursing her lips, Jean asked softly, "How did you know I was in a bad mood?"Robin took a step forward and stood before Jean.In a calm voice, she said, "You saw Ms. Page when you were having lunch with Mr. Larson, didn't you?" Jean nodded. She hadn't expected Robin would guess her thoughts so quickly. It was no

    Rowena's expression changed subtly, feeling that Robin was possibly mocking her in some way. However, she hadn't done anything wrong. She had merely exchanged a few words with Jean, not to mention what she had said earlier didn't disclose any malicious intent. It was just her astonishment as an onlooker."Did Robin notice something?" she silently wondered.Ever since she joined Larson Group, Rowena had always been wary of Robin. The more wary she was of her, the more determined she became to outperform Robin. Rowena wanted to drag her down from her position as the chief secretary.Taking a deep breath, she gazed steadily at Robin and explained, "I was just curious as Ms. Michaels has recently returned to Henkel and is now with Mr. Larson. There's no ill intention.She added, "Aren't you also quite concerned in these matters? It's just that you've known Ms. Michaels for a longer time. So, you can openly inquire about them." With that, she returned to her own workstation.Robin

    Jean immediately shook her head. "It's the dessert Robin brought back for me when she went out earlier. It was delicious."Upon hearing that, Tyler playfully kissed her on the lips. He nodded in agreement. "Indeed, it's delicious."Jean's face turned red as Tyler engaged in this teasing behavior. She pushed him away, blushing and looking down. "You're being so cheeky."Tyler looked at Jean's shy expression and gently tousled her silky hair. He got up from the bed, not teasing her any further."Finish your work soon so that you can head back early," he said.Jean nodded. When she noticed Tyler's wrinkled attire upon getting up, she immediately went over to tidy it. Tyler's eyes softened as he watched her meticulous efforts in tidying his clothes. He took his tie off the hanger and handed it to her. In a gentle tone, he asked, "Do you know how to tie a tie?"Jean shook her head and responded, "I don't."She bit her lip, feeling like she lacked many skills. It made her seem l

    After a while, Jean let go of her embrace. She bit her lip and said with a smile, "I need to rest now. You go work hard so that you can feed and support me."Tyler ruffled her hair and replied, "That'd be a piece of cake."For Tyler, taking care of Jean was a simple task. She didn't have extravagant spending habits, and her only hobby was painting. Even if he had to organize art exhibitions for her every day, it would be a straightforward task for him. "Taking care of you is as easy as taking care of a little kitten."At the moment, Jean was as clingy as a cat, and Tyler genuinely enjoyed her affection.Jean bit her lip and lay down on the bed, feeling a little embarrassed. Tyler adjusted the covers for her before leaving the room.As Jean lay on the bed in the inner room, she could hear Tyler flipping through documents outside.Tyler's mild minty fragrance filled the room. It was especially pleasing to smell. In this ambiance, Jean gradually fell into a peaceful sleep.In her

    Since Tyler offered her a convenient excuse, Jean nodded earnestly."Yeah, I had a nightmare," she admitted.It truly was a nightmare, which left her with a sense of despondency upon waking.Tyler reached out and pulled her into his embrace. His expression turned serious as he reassured her, "Don't be afraid. I promise something like that will never happen again."Jean nodded in his embrace.The minty scent from Tyler's body surrounded her. Her mind was still preoccupied with the unsettling dream.She couldn't go on like this. Jean felt like thinking further would surely make her nose bleed.As she was reluctant to dwell on the dream any longer, she took a deep breath and withdrew from Tyler's embrace.Her sudden retreat made Tyler look at her with a slightly puzzled look.After a brief pause, she responded, "You should get back to work."Tyler raised an eyebrow at her reluctance to stay in his embrace. An unexpected twinge of disappointment crossed his mind."Alright," he r

    Jean stood frozen, processing Robin's simple but unexpected remark. "How did you know?"Was it that obvious?She cast a quizzical look at Robin.Robin settled in her chair and motioned for Jean to take a seat across from her. She felt at ease around Jean, knowing that Jean wasn't exactly her previous self after losing her memory.Jean took a seat and repeated, "How did you know?"Robin raised an eyebrow, answering, "It's written all over your face."Jean was taken aback. Had she failed to conceal her feelings? She thought she did a good job.Leaning in, Robin whispered, "Ms. Michaels, care to share why you're avoiding Mr. Larson?"Upon hearing the question, Jean blushed instantly and vehemently shook her head. "I can't," she insisted, realizing it was not a topic she was ready to discuss with anyone. Besides, it was embarrassing to even think about it.Robin looked amused by Jean's bashfulness about the secret matter. As a woman, she had a sixth sense and said with a straigh

    It made sense to Robin that Jean would feel troubled if she was sexually incompatible with Tyler.Given Jean's petite frame, she did not look like one who could endure intense sex.Jean merely shook her head furiously. "No, no."She had a feeling that they had slowly ventured further away from the topic, which added to her hesitation and embarrassment.Was she really going to tell Robin that she had wet dreams after seeing Tyler's hot body?It was funny how Tyler acted like normal while she thirsted for him. She stopped herself right there and continued shaking her head.Robin knew Jean was troubled by sex-related problems, but she couldn't narrow it down. She was perplexed. Were there any other difficulties within that overarching problem?"Ms. Michaels, just tell me the truth," Robin coaxed.Robin might be a capable employee, but she was clueless about relationships. Still, she figured she could offer advice from indirect experience.Jean bit her lip and whispered, "I … had

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.

    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.
