Jean looked calm when she was talking to Emmett. It was as if she was looking at a stranger. There wasn't a single change in her expression.

Emmett took a deep breath. He was about to speak when Tyler's voice came from his office.

"Jean …"

Jean immediately rushed to Tyler's office when she heard him calling for her. She didn't spare Emmett another glance. Emmett took another deep breath and walked away.

Rowena followed Emmett into the elevator. Seeing that Emmett was unhappy, she smiled and said, "Mr. Page, you aren't aware of it yet, are you?"

A hint of confusion flashed in Emmett's eyes when he heard Rowena's voice. He turned to her with a frown.

"What?"

Rowena pursed her lips and whispered, "Ms. Michaels lost her memory. She has forgotten a lot of things from the past."

Emmett frowned slightly when he heard Rowena's words.

The door to the elevator opened, and Rowena stepped out of the elevator first.

Seeing that Emmett was still standing in the elevator with his mind

    Tyler did not show his usual tenderness toward Jean this time. He did not let go of her waist immediately.Instead, he smiled and said, "Only when our relationship is stabilized can the company develop normally."After Tyler finished speaking, he looked over at Rowena, who was standing awkwardly at the door. Then, he asked in a deep voice, "Ms. Quigley, do you need anything?"Upon being greeted by Tyler, Rowena let out a small smile and managed to regain her composure."Mr. Larson, I'm here to retrieve the files the people from Page Co. left behind," she said.Tyler nodded and replied, "Come in, then."At this moment, Jean found an opportunity to get out of Tyler's embrace. However, instead of leaving the office immediately, she stood to one side and adjusted her skirt.Rowena walked in and grabbed the files. She planned to leave Tyler's office as soon as she could. She had just interrupted Tyler and Jean's intimate moment, after all.However, just as she spun on her heel and l

    After prolonged efforts, Jean only managed to get rid of a fraction of her dress's wrinkles."What kind of fabric is this even made of? It wrinkles so easily," she complained.Upon hearing this, Tyler spun around in his seat and started fixing Jean's skirt for her."The better the fabric, the easier it wrinkles. Stay still. Let me smoothen it out for you."Robin caught Tyler pulling on Jean's skirt as she walked in to hand in her report. Jean immediately swatted his hands away from her when she noticed Robin's entrance.Robin broke into a smile and said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. Please carry on."She turned to leave as soon as she finished her sentence.Jean immediately called out to her, "Robin! It's not what it looks like."Robin listened to Jean and halted. She then responded while looking amused, "So, what's happening here?" Jean felt exasperated. Before she could explain further, Tyler asked in a business-like tone, "Did you need anything?"Robin's face str

    Jean's heart would no doubt shatter again if Tyler continued to devote his time and energy to Lilian like he did in the past. Everything would be over.His gaze swept briefly across Robin before he dismissed her."We're done here. If Lilian tries to call the front desk again, just tell her that Larson Group is unable to interfere with the Page family's internal affairs."Robin nodded firmly in response. Jean returned with a glass of water from the pantry at this moment. Tyler reached for the glass she set down on his table. The temperature of the drink in his hand felt just right. Jean had undoubtedly devoted extra care to making sure the temperature was just right so that he would not scald his tongue when he drank it."Ms. Michaels, you're becoming increasingly good at your job."He smiled as he overtly complimented her. His comment, in the presence of Robin no less, left Jean embarrassed. "Whatever."  As Jean spoke, she held Robin's hand and muttered, "I'd like to

    For some reason, Jean suddenly teared up as she listened to Robin's trembling voice. Being able to commit to a relationship until the end was the most meaningful thing one could do. Especially in Robin's situation, where she had been through countless hardships and an unrequited crush. It was moving to see her finally achieving an outcome.At the sight of Jean’s bloodshot eyes, Robin's own eyes also began to slightly tear up uncontrollably.Truth be told, she had not felt this emotional in a very long time.She took a deep breath and looked at Jean. She then said while laughing, "I really want to be successful soon."Jean nodded solemnly in response."Yes. Remember to visit me often after you transfer to Weiss Group." Robin smiled lightly and replied softly, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely train you into a very successful chief secretary during the handover period!"Upon hearing her words, Jean immediately cheered herself on. After all, to Tyler, Robin was probably his seco

  • If I were Yours   Chapter 822 Robin Wants to Resign

    Jean's gaze appeared mildly concerned as she listened to Robin's words. She was right. Even at Larson Group, where Robin had worked for many years, there was still a Rowena who was prepared to take over her position at any time—let alone at Weiss Group. The company had a complete set of rules and regulations.  Terence was also a man who had strict demands on discipline. Even if she transferred, he would definitely not offer her any protection.  He also personally attended to many of his tasks.When it came to someone he personally requested, he would certainly hope she would be able to hold her own next to him.Therefore, if Robin were to join Weiss Group, her situation would be extremely difficult.Jean felt anxious just thinking about this. She then solemnly looked toward Robin and said in a serious tone, "Robin, I don't think you should transfer over."Robin chuckled as she listened to Jean. She then replied, "Sure. I don't really want to go to Weiss Group anyway.

    If Robin were to resign, the chief secretary would have to be someone among those who were already around.The other secretaries had already started to suck up to Tyler, thinking that it would be easier to handle what came after later in the future.As a result, procedures involving the CEO had seen an improvement in efficiency recently.Everyone was working hard, hoping that Tyler would appoint them as the new chief secretary.After all, the position was one that was quite sought after.As the chief secretary, just the year-end bonus alone would surpass all the bonuses they had received over the years.Robin did not clarify any of the rumors that had spread about her resignation.On the other hand, Rowena had sent Kylie out to inquire about the situation.Kylie did not like getting involved in such matters.She had almost caused Weiss Group to suffer a huge loss and ended up being bedridden for several days. She did not want to get involved in such serious disputes.However,

    Kylie was the secretary who was least willing to see Robin resign.Compared to Rowena, Robin was much kinder.Although Rowena had a great work ethic, she tended to exploit her subordinates.Kylie had worked under Rowena for a short period of time. She had practically worked non-stop the entire month and did not get a single chance to catch her breath.That was why Kylie really didn't want Rowena to become the new chief secretary."I haven't submitted my resignation letter yet. If I do end up leaving, Mr. Larson will get a replacement chief secretary to guide you. You don't need to worry too much," Robin said.Kylie couldn't help but worry. She liked to work under Robin because Robin would allocate tasks based on each of the secretaries' personalities.Things would be very different with Rowena.Rowena had already shown herself to be a selfish person before being appointed as the new chief secretary, after all.It was clear that the woman would dictate everything to her own ben

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.

    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

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.
