Robin watched as Terence's expression changed. She smiled with a hint of deviousness. Then, she proceeded to place the snacks on the table and opened all the lids. "Which one would you like to try first?"

Terence's expression shifted when he saw the lid open, exposing the abundance of chili oil and dried chili.

Robin took note of his shifting composure and smiled. "Mr. Weiss, what's wrong? Are these not to your taste?"

Terence heard her and calmly picked up the fork at the side. He skewed a piece of beef jerky and shoved it into his mouth.

Robin arched her eyebrow while observing his action. "Mr. Weiss, if you can't handle the heat, you don't have to eat it."

She had shared many meals with him.

Each time, he would prefer bland dishes. He rarely indulged in spicy and oily food such as this.

After he took a piece of beef jerky, she wanted to pack away the snacks.

Terence saw her action and used his hand to stop her. He looked at her intensely and added, "I think the fl

    After Robin heard what Terence said, she casually smacked him on the stomach."If you really die on me right now, I won't be able to clear my name of murder charges no matter what I do."Hearing that, Terence's lips curled into a small smile. He then laughed and said, "Don't worry, I've retained a clean image all these years in the industry.

It's really irritating."Hearing that, realization struck Robin."My stomach's made of steel. It's not as fragile as yours. It's practically invincible," she said immediately.Robin's triumphant tone made Terence smile involuntarily.A hint of amusement appeared in Robin's eyes as she looked at Terence's smiling face.This was a side of Terence that she had never seen before.Robin didn't know that Terence was actually such a smiley person.When they first met, Terence would always sit on the sidelines coldly.

Nervousness flickered in her eyes at Tyler's comment, but she quickly regained her composure."It just feels like I've always known how to do it," she said.Tyler looked at Jean with pursed lips and asked in a gentle tone, "Jean, have you gotten back some of your memories?"Jean paused. She didn't know how to respond to Tyler's question.Jean had been having dreams recently. The people and things that happened in those dreams seemed to be experiences from her past. She knew that her memories were gradually returning.Seeing that Tyler looked a bit nervous, Jean smiled and reached out to hug his arm."It does seem like I'm starting to remember some things. I think I learned how to drive from you," she said with a smile.Upon hearing that, Tyle

    They arrived at Tyler's office floor.   When Jean saw Tyler enter his office, she poured him a cup of water and made sure Tyler took his medicine before returning to her workstation. From her seat, Jean could see Tyler's every movement as he started working on his task. Tyler, too, could clearly see what she was doing. Jean sighed, inserted the SIM card that she had bought into her phone, and signed into her social media account with her phone number.Within a moment, she successfully logged into her account. Jean pursed her lips and started checking her past posts on her profile. She looked for a while but could not find anything about her and Tyler. It was as if they were never a married couple. Also … there was literally not a single post about Tyler for the past few years. Jean was shocked. Even if she was only married to Tyler in place of Joyce, everything eventually came to light.Also, they had a kid. Logically speaking, Tyler should appear on her feed at so

    After all, Jean was doing all this behind Tyler's back. But Tyler remained calm in front of her all this time. Jean saw Tyler looking at her with a confused face. She squeezed out a smile and asked softly, "What's the matter?"Tyler quickly shook his head and looked away from Jean to continue working. Jean sighed in relief when Tyler did not continue the conversation. But just because Tyler didn't question her, it didn't mean that he was not aware of what she was doing. Because whenever Jean was online, Tyler would get a notification about it. Tyler put down his phone and continued with his work. Before this, Jean would always let him know about everything. But now, Jean was choosing to keep it a secret. Tyler couldn't help but ask himself how long he could maintain this kind of relationship with Jean. But he also didn't want her to keep everything to herself. Jean sighed in relief when she saw Tyler had resumed working. Still, she couldn't help feeling bad about i

    Jean sat at her workstation. She rejected the invitation with a surprisingly stern look. After hearing Jean's rejection, Rowena smiled and said, "If you insist, Ms. Michaels, I'll decline Mr. Page's invite."Jean nodded.Rowena peeked at her and asked, "Ms. Sage didn't come to the office today.

But since Robin was away, it would be hosted by Jean.Rowena also heard that Terence came to pick up Robin yesterday. Of course, she would want to take this chance to bad mouth Robin to Jean."Recently, Ms. Sage doesn't seem as motivated at work. Also, she has been coming in late while leaving early. Is it true that she's planning to quit her job?" Rowena asked.Jean stopped her work, looked up at Rowena, and asked seriously, "Do you have nothing better to do?"

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.

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.

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

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?

    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.
