After leaving the stew restaurant, Jean and the rest could still smell the food on their clothes. Terence wrinkled up his nose the whole time while looking irritated.Tyler led Jean away after they left the stew restaurant.Robin remembered that she parked her car at Weiss Group's entrance. Her eyes flashed with awkwardness at the moment.When she was about to find a way to leave, Terence told her softly, "Come on, let me drive you to your car.""There's no need for that much trouble, Mr. Weiss. I can take a cab myself," Robin politely declined right away.Terence deadpanned and glanced at Robin after hearing her reply. He then replied in a deep voice, "Come on, I'm going back to the company as well."Robin froze for a moment and felt awkward. She then followed Terence to the underground garage.Terence walked in front of Robin. As Robin looked at Terence's back, she couldn't help but be slightly lost in thought.Robin never thought she could have the chance to spend time alo
Terence had a serious look on his face.He said in his deep voice, "Look, Ms. Michaels sees you as her friend, and we left together just now. She'll certainly question me if she finds out you're injured. What do you expect me to say to her?"Terence looked extremely serious when he said all this. Robin was stunned by how seriously Terence was taking the matter. She felt embarrassed, and for a moment, she couldn't think of what to say. Terence walked Robin to the car, opened the door, and let her sit in the passenger seat.When Terence reached out to get the seatbelt for Robin, Robin had already pulled over the seatbelt herself. Terence's arm hung in the air awkwardly. Robin sensed the awkwardness too. Terence closed the door swiftly and walked to the driver's side of the car.He drove out of the underground parking lot as soon as he got in. The two of them didn't exchange a single word for the whole journey. When they reached the hospital, Terence greeted the hospital
Robin noticed that her phone had been turned off. It puzzled her because she remembered vividly that she had fully charged her phone before she left the house. Especially since she started working as a secretary for Larson Group, she would always make sure that her phone was charged and never turned off. Therefore, Robin turned on her phone the minute she got it back. There was a subtle change of expression on Terence's face when he saw Robin's reaction. Robin still couldn't quite figure out why her phone was turned off. Terence didn't mention anything when he passed her the phone, so he might not have been aware that the phone was turned off. She pursed her lips tightly. There was a missed call from Lukas. Instead of calling Lukas, she put her phone back into her handbag. As she was slowly getting up from her seat, Terence reached out and gave her a helping hand. They left the hospital after that. Terence held Robin by her arm all the way till they reached
Robin pursed her lips and forced a friendly smile on her face. She asked, "Terence, is there anything wrong?"She was going to ask Terence why he was looking at her weirdly, but she knew better. "Nothing," Terence said coldly. He averted his gaze back to the road and started driving to Robin's apartment. They barely said a word throughout the journey. Robin felt awkward, but she was able to calm herself. When they arrived at the apartment, Robin got out of the car. She was going to wave goodbye to Terence, but he opened the door and got out of the car too. Robin was surprised, but she quickly collected herself."Mr. Weiss, you don't have to walk me back. I can go back on my own," said Robin. Terence's expression remained calm. He walked toward Robin and said, "I'll walk you to your apartment." Robin took a deep breath. She wanted to protest, but Terence was already holding her hand tightly.His grip was strong and steady. All Robin could feel was the warmt
Terence stared at the cup of water Robin handed to him as his expression gradually darkened.Seeing that the man hadn't reached out to take the cup from her, Robin was slightly taken aback."I don't have coffee or any other drinks at my place," she said.Terence nodded slightly at that and said indifferently, "It's alright. Just make sure to prepare them next time. I like Lockshire coffee the best."Robin was puzzled by his words. She didn't understand what Terence meant by saying that.Eventually, the man took the cup of water from Robin and settled against the couch. He then glanced around the living room casually.Robin stood awkwardly on the side, looking a little embarrassed. She had no idea what Terence was even looking at.When Terence noticed that Robin was still standing quietly on the side, he said, "Sit down. This is your home, after all. Why do you look so much more uneasy than me?"Helplessness flashed in Robin's eyes at the comment.She didn't want to feel uneasy
Terence looked at Robin with a serious expression."How would you know if you haven't even given it a try?"Robin was momentarily stunned by that. She looked up at Terence and couldn't help but take a deep breath. In that moment, she felt emboldened all of a sudden."Well, Mr. Weiss, would you be willing to give me a chance to try, then?" she asked.A spark seemed to appear in Terence's cold gaze after he heard that."Ms. Sage, come work at Weiss Group," Terence offered.Robin was initially surprised but was quick to reply, "Mr. Weiss, I'm talking about my feelings for you here. I don't want to talk about anything work-related."Robin did not have any intention of leaving Larson Group, even up to now. Larson Group still needed her around for many matters, especially since Jean had lost her memories.As soon as Terence suggested she work for his company, Robin naturally had many concerns.Although she fancied Terence, she was a rational person. A woman her age could not afford
Robin knew that there was no future between her and Lukas. She couldn't give him any more false hope.By putting a stop to this relationship now, they could perhaps still be friends.But if this relationship were to persist, it might turn into a tragedy between the two families.After all, their parents were acquainted, so Robin didn't wish to strain this relationship.After taking a deep breath and collecting her emotions, she said in a low voice, "I'm sorry to have wasted your time."Lukas remained silent. After a brief moment, he softly spoke out."Ms. Sage, I think we make quite the match. You don't have to reject me so quickly. We could just get along as friends for the time being."If our relationship doesn't progress in half a year, then I'll willingly back off. Is that okay?"Upon hearing Lukas' suggestion, Robin felt conflicted.Regardless of how much Lukas insisted, it was improbable that they would end up together.This was because Terence, who had given her newf
Seeing Jean's cheerful state, Tyler's lips couldn't help but curl into a small smile.Upon entering Robin's office, Jean pulled out a chair and took a seat.When Tyler told her about Robin's injury last night, she had intended to call and check up on her.But thinking that Robin was most likely alone with Terence, she eventually decided not to bother them."So, how was your evening with Terence? Did anything happen between you two?" Jean asked as she looked at Robin with a face full of curiosity.Seeing Jean's curious expression, Robin's lips curled slightly. She replied in a low tone, "Mr. Weiss escorted me home last night."Upon hearing this, Jean's eyes immediately gleamed with anticipation.Something must've happened between Terence and Robin after he escorted her home.A smile immediately crept onto Jean's face. Her intuition told her that there was definitely something going on between them."What happened after that? Were there any sparks?"' Jean asked suggestively.Ro
