Terence nodded in satisfaction and then remained silent. Robin and Terence barely had any conversation throughout the dinner.Terence was a man of few words, while Robin felt awkward.Conversations between Tyler and Sean dominated the dinner table instead. Just when they were almost done eating, Brian came.His face lit up when he saw Robin."Terence, why didn't you tell me that Ms. Sage was here?"Terence looked coldly at Brian upon hearing his question. "Would you have dumped your beloved and rushed here if I had told you?"Brian chuckled embarrassedly and said, "Isn't the answer obvious? For Ms. Sage, of course, I would."Pulling out a chair, he sat down next to Sean. His eyes were fixed on Robin."Hello, Ms. Sage. We meet again."Robin used to greet him with a friendly smile.But this time, the smile on Robin's face was clearly distant.After all, Robin didn't want unnecessary rumors of her and Brian going around.Brian always had tons of women around him, and she
Thinking of this, Robin felt a headache coming. She had always been diligent and responsible at work. How did she get involved with such a playboy? No matter how she looked at it, she felt that she had been at a disadvantage. Moreover, she was certain that Terence had misunderstood her. Seeing Terence coming out of Angevin's Place, Tyler took Jean's hand and said softly, "Let's go." Jean saw that Robin was doing fine by herself, so she waved to her and left with Tyler. After Jean and Tyler left, Robin sighed and said to the chauffeur, "Come with me. My car is parked down the road." She walked ahead while rubbing her forehead. She had drunk too hastily today. Now, she felt a burning sensation in her stomach and slight dizziness. Robin handed her car keys to the chauffeur standing behind her. An elegant hand received them, making her stunned momentarily. She raised her head and froze immediately. "Mr. Weiss …" An awkward expression appeared on Robin's fac
Terence stepped into the car and sat beside Robin. She felt a sense of oppression, which made her feel uncomfortable. "Drive." With Terence's instruction, the driver immediately set off toward The Iris Indigo. Robin was so nervous that she didn't notice this detail. Terence clearly did not tell the driver where to go, but he knew. Since taking on the role of chief secretary at Larson Group, Robin had hosted many VIPs and interacted with numerous distinguished guests. However, she had never felt this nervous before. Terence was quiet during the entire ride. After taking deep breaths to calm her emotions, Robin looked at Terence and said with a smile, "Mr. Weiss, you mentioned earlier that you had some work-related matters to discuss." Terence glanced at Robin and said calmly, "I've forgotten about it." She was stunned. Because she drank hastily today, Robin's face was a little flushed now. Plus, her heart had been racing, making her face unusually crimson. Robin
Terence looked at Robin for a few seconds, then nodded slightly. "Well, you can go." Robin hesitated for a moment and then smiled awkwardly. "Please excuse me." Terence remained seated, his expression unchanged. At this time, the driver got out of the car. Robin sat stiffly. Now, it was just her and Terence in the car. She bit her lip lightly and hesitated before speaking, "Mr. Weiss, is there something you want to say to me?" Terence looked at her expressionlessly and spoke in a calm tone, "I thought you had something to say to me." Robin looked somewhat puzzled. She took a deep breath and then said hesitantly, "Mr. Weiss, I'm sorry for the trouble I caused at work. I'll be more careful when dealing with Weiss Group's projects in the future. I promise not to create any more problems." She felt that Terence probably didn't want to discuss anything other than work-related matters between them. Besides work, she couldn't think of any other common topics that th
Terence asked the question as if it were the most natural thing. His gaze was fixed on Robin.A sudden tension gripped Robin, causing her to freeze in place.Terence was aware of Robin's feelings for him.She couldn't shake the thought that maybe she had been too transparent.Earlier, alcohol had made her mind foggy. But now, Terence's words helped her become clear-headed again.She understood Terence's personality well.If she admitted her feelings and got turned down, it might affect her job.Robin was usually calm and collected at work. Yet, blending emotions with her professional life could make even her ideal job a cause of worry.In the end, it could push her to the edge of losing her sanity.Gathering her thoughts, Robin took a deep breath and looked Terence in the eye."Mr. Weiss, are you ... thinking about marriage?"Terence frowned at the question and shook his head."No."His answer relieved Robin.Maintaining a calm demeanor, she looked at Terence and said wit
Tyler's physique was the kind that would captivate any woman's gaze endlessly.Yet, the daily intensity of it all was becoming a bit overwhelming.Concern clouded Jean's expression. She pondered whether Tyler's body could handle the strain. After all, he was still in the recovery phase, and excessive exercise was not advisable."No," Jean reassured with a gentle tone, her cheeks slightly tinged with red as she met Tyler's eyes."I'm just worried about your well-being. With the colder weather settling in, I'm afraid you might catch a cold," she added.She was also worried that her nose might start bleeding if things kept going like this for too long.Jean wore a shy smile as she spoke. During their conversation, she showed her concern for Tyler. She stood up from the couch and got a coat to drape over his shoulders.Watching her actions, Tyler couldn't help but smile."You used to dream of seeing this. Now that I've made your wish come true, aren't you eager to see it again? W
Tyler thought of telling Jean about this so that she wouldn't be too anxious the next time she saw Joyce.That was why he told Jean about this beforehand. However, just hearing Joyce's name terrified her. "Don't be afraid, it's fine. I'm here." Jean slowly calmed down with Tyler's consoling words. "Is she the one you were supposed to marry back then?"Seeing that Jean was so adamant about knowing the answer, Tyler kissed her forehead."We weren't in any sort of relationship. It was just a contractual marriage at the time. Jean, believe me when I say that I'm very grateful that we met each other by a twist of fate. "I hope you understand that you're the only one in my heart. You're my wife and the mother of my child. I hope you won't run away from me because of this matter."When Jean heard that, a bout of nervousness hit her."Alright," she said softly.Nodding her head solemnly, she looked deeply into Tyler's eyes."I'll muster the courage to stand by your side
When Tyler saw that, he quickly supported her. "Don't move."Jean lay down on the bed once more, feeling disoriented."I feel dizzy," she said. Hearing this, Tyler immediately got up and massaged her forehead. Right then, they heard Dorian knock on the door. "Come in." Dorian entered the room after he heard Tyler's voice. He walked over to Jean's bedside and cast her a worried glance. "Mom, do you feel better now?" When Jean heard Dorian's voice, she opened her eyes slowly. Her gaze fell on the child, and when she saw his anxious face, she pinched his cheek gently. "I'm alright. Don't worry too much."Dorian nodded his head earnestly and held Jean's hands tightly. "Mom, please get better soon." Jean did not know why she suddenly ran a high fever. She nodded, though she still looked weak. Tyler continued to massage Jean's forehead gently, making her feel sleepy. Coleen did not go out today and stayed home to make some oatmeal for Jean. When
