“Mr. Mann, her eyelashes and hands are moving! You must have connected with her emotionally. She could hear you,” Tommy exclaimed.

“Jean! Open your eyes. Look at me!” Robert cried out.

Jean finally opened her eyes after a few seconds.

“She is awake, Mr. Mann. Your daughter is awake.” Tommy was in joy. “She must have heard your call and woke up. I will alert the doctor now.”

“Jean, my dear daughter, you are finally awake… Dad has come to see you.” Robert was tearful, his voice trembling.

Jean stared at him blankly.

“Dad… Dad…”

Her voice was so hoarse that her words were almost unintelligible.

“Yes, it’s me… it’s Dad…”

“Dad... It... it hurts.” She seemed to have exhausted all her strength to say those few words.

It ached for Robert to see her condition, tears flowing from his eyes.

She was just like when she was a child, looking for him to comfort her after she fell.

She had not fully awakened yet, as she had not realized what she had gone through. She was just l

    “She woke up?” A few seconds later, everyone heard his overly surprised voice. Etan’s hands holding the cutlery froze for a second. ‘She is awake!’ The look in his eyes softened a tad. “Her dad? Are you sure? Is he gone?” “I thought she didn’t have a dad. He only came now after this thing happened. I will be there right away. Take good care of her.” Jason hung up and walked back with a smiling face. “What has happened that makes you look so happy?” the old Mrs. Mann asked. “A friend of mine was hospitalized and had been in a coma for two days and is now awake. I am going over there now. Would you excuse me, Grandma?” “Male or female friends? Go ahead, your mind is already elsewhere, anyway.” Jason let out a smile and bowed his head. “I am leaving now, bro.” “Okay.” Etan clenched the cutlery, his face calm. “A girl?” Mrs. Mann asked as soon as Jason left. Etan did not answer; he was in a black mood. “I can see that this kid is getting serious this time, not jus

    Etan was irritable today. He got even more irritable when he thought of Jason having gone to see Jean. He would usually treat Anne like a gentleman for the sake of his grandma. But today, he did not even bother to pretend. Anne could see his impatience, of course. But she did not want to miss this opportunity. Now that Jean survived the suicide and had regained her consciousness, public opinion online gradually shifted, with more and more people calling Anne names. The less confident she was, the more desperate she was in wanting to marry Etan. Pretending to be calm, she drew her hair back to reveal her collarbones, and then leaned toward Etan. “Etan, would you like to go in for a cup of coffee? My mom has made some delicious cookies. Would you like to try them?” Etan held his breath and leaned back as soon as she drew close. “Thanks, but no thanks. Get out now.” When Anne twiddled her hair, she thought she was giving out an aromatic scent. But it smelled pungent and

    He did not know why he came. Jean did not move, not even looking at him. “I am not sure if staying alive is a good or bad thing for me.” She did not expect Etan to come. What a lucky day. She was thinking about how she could best gain his sympathy. You cannot just entice men with your body. “What makes you think staying alive is a bad thing?” “Don’t you think death is an escape for me?” Her face was still pale. She was so skinny that her bony face made her eyes look bigger than they actually were. There was no light but an invisible gloom in her eyes.  Etan’s heart fluttered. He suddenly felt that she looked more pleasing last time. “I thought you were someone who would never run away from problems.” Jean chuckled. There was a different kind of sadness and beauty on her face, which made him want to take care of her and protect her for life. “No one can be really brave. I am scared and timid, so I pretended to be tough, thinking that others would not dare to bully

    Fluid trickled down his neck the next moment. It felt tingly warm as if she was about to make a brand in his heart. Jean pushed Etan away smiling as she wiped her tears away. “I am okay now. Thank you for coming to see me. Don’t worry, I have gotten wiser and will not do stupid things again. It really hurts though.” Etan’s arms were empty, and he felt a twinge of jealousy inside him.  He straightened up, remaining silent for a moment before asking, “The person you like…” Jean looked at him in the eyes, as if she was about to drown in the vortex of his eyes. “He will never know.” Etan’s heart skipped a beat as he seemed to have understood something. “Go now. I am going to bed. Don’t come again, lest Anne finds out.” Jean did not give him the chance to continue asking. She turned her back to him and ignored him. Then, she only heard his departing footsteps after waiting for about two or three minutes. Jean’s lips raised in a smirk as she had subtly planted a seed in Eta

    ‘Etan. That was Etan Mann. Everyone in Cornview knows him, who owns nearly half of the city.’ Jenny lifted Jean’s chin and looked at her left and right. “It was no wonder that you got him. How could any man, as straight as an arrow they are, resist the temptation of a beauty like you?” “They say men have two major hobbies. One is to make an honest woman out of the trollop, while the other is to make a trollop out of an honest woman. In my situation, everyone seems to see me as not an honest woman. So, I might as well give him a chance to save me,” Jean said. “I am afraid that you might drag him down with you.” Jenny shook her head in all seriousness. Jean laughed. … Anne told Alana about Etan’s suspicion of her. The mother and daughter discussed all night. She asked Anne to go see Mrs. Mann and cry in front of her, saying nothing else except that the marriage was called off. The next day, Anne went to the Mann family with a haggard face. “Oh, what happened? Did you no

    “No time? He is always busy. Just tell him to collect my body if he doesn’t come home now. I am having a heart attack.” Elliot had no words. Her voice was so forceful and louder than he was. She did not sound like she was ill. “I will convey your message to Mr. Mann.” “Now. Right away.” “All right, Mrs. Mann.” Elliot hung up and bent to put down the phone. “Mr. Mann, don’t you want to go home and take a look? Your grandma seems furious.” Etan was not in a meeting. He had foreseen that Anne would go to his grandma, and his grandma would come for him. He knew what that woman was thinking. “Did you find the woman who looks similar to Jean in the video?” Etan asked, instead of answering Elliot’s question. “We got the lead and will find it soon. The police have also expanded the search.” “Mr. Mann, can I ask you a question?” Elliot was so curious, he couldn’t help but ask. “You can’t.” “What exactly is your relationship with Miss Mitchell?” Elliot asked anyway. “Ar

    “What do you mean, not hers?” Mrs. Mann was dumbfounded. “You have a woman outside now? Have you recovered?” She knew Etan’s problem, whereby he would not allow women to get close to him. Etan did not answer. Not that he had recovered. It was just that Jean was the special one. “It would be even better if you can recover. But you’d better cut off your relationship with the woman outside. It will hurt Anne dearly if she finds out.” “She knows.” “What?” Mrs. Mann was anxious. “I see. Is that why she wants to cancel the engagement? Don’t be foolish, Etan. Anne is a good girl, and she likes you. Don’t you ever let her down. Do you hear me?” “Grandma, between repaying kindness and having great-grandchildren, which is more important?” Etan asked all of a sudden. “Of course having great-grandchildren is more important. Why?” Mrs. Mann looked expectant. “I just want to tell you that you may not have great-grandchildren if I marry Anne.” “What do you mean, you rascal?” “Noth

    “Of course. It will be all yours.” Robert had no hesitation. He was very clear in this regard. “Alana will do the same. There are no parents who would not favor their children in this world.” Jean spread out her hands. “But I can understand her. Alana wanted her daughter to get a better footing in the household of her future husband when they got married. So, she took Anne back as leverage on the Mitchell family’s status. This is entirely normal. It benefits our family anyways. As long as they don’t try to usurp our family wealth.” Her words sounded casual, but Jean made sure that they would plant a seed of suspicion in Robert’s mind. She knew her dad was conceited and paranoid. Jean was too young and impulsive back then. It gave Alana an edge over her. But she would not give Alana another chance. … Back home and before resting for the day, Robert said, “The doctor said Jean is recovering well and will be discharged in a few days. You will go with me to take Jean home.” A

    Chapter 395"You were promoted several days ago, right? In the past, it seemed that you are just an assistant of the legal department, and your monthly salary was only about 3,000 dollars. According to your previous income and your family situation, you can't afford to the house of Royal Penthouse."This information was provided by Ben. He and Jean both felt that this was a rare opportunity. They had to investigate the accounts as soon as possible.While Jean was speaking, she stared at Daniel. He was calm and just frowned. His expression did not change. It seemed that he was not guilty.But...Jean still found his flaw. His right hand was unconsciously clenching his pants, and he panicked. Daniel looked righteous and angrily rebuked, "This is all your arbitrary speculation. I don't need to report the situation of my family to anyone. If you really doubt me, just call the police. There is no need to be entangled with me."Jean nodded. "Yes, you're right. Since there's no need to

    Chapter 394She could have time to check the company's accounts, fire Brennan's people, and minimize his influence.This was a good opportunity for her.Jean hurriedly got up, washed up, and went downstairs."Mrs. Mann, good morning. I'll go bring you breakfast." Ellen said while heading for the kitchen."No. I have something urgent today. I have to hurry to the office.""You should have breakfast. You're pregnant!"Jean stopped, and her gaze was gloomy.'Yes, I'm pregnant now. I should pay attention. Otherwise, I would easily be suspected.'Ellen brought up the breakfast. In less than ten minutes, she finished her breakfast.On the way to the Mitchell Corporation, Jean called Jenny."Jenny, I can't go to Dreamers Entertainment recently. Please keep an eye out for me. Send me two capable accountants.""There are some in Dreamers Entertainment. There is no need to look for them elsewhere.""Ask them to come to the Mitchell Corporation now!""Okay. I'll call them."Jean co

    Chapter 393Jean was confused as she listened, "Who are you talking about? Who has his arm broken?""Oops, I am just too excited to make it clear. It's Brennna. I was told about this the moment I entered the company. He went whoring in a hotel. But that prostitute has a boyfriend who is a member of a gang. Brennna and that prostitute were caught sleeping on the bed. Her boyfriend broke Brennna’s arm and chopped off two of Brennna’s fingers on the spot. Now Brennna is in the hospital with police there." Summer gave a quite vivid description of the matter with happiness written all over her face.Rubbing her forehead, Jean thought it was indeed something unexpected."Do you think this is good news?"  Jean nodded, smiling, "Yes, it's good news. I didn't expect that he did this."Summer looked very delighted, "He did it. Now, this matter has been spread through the whole company? Brennna, a widely recognized good man, turns out to be a jerk. It is too bad that I used to think he i

    Chapter 392The day he disappeared a week ago, Jean had just ruined Anne's engagement.Etan frowned and his cold face made Elliot a little scared."Keep investigating! Robert must be found! I want to know if he is dead or alive."He not only wanted to find Robert but also wanted to find Robert before Morgan did.If he let Morgan find Robert first, maybe Jean would worship him in her heart. She might even think that Morgan was a good man!Etan would never give Morgan this chance.What's more, he would not give Jean any chance to be with another man.Elliot said cautiously, "Besides, there is one thing I don't know whether I should say."Etan glanced at him and said, "Go ahead. Don't dilly-dally."Elliot immediately said, "I also found out that Mr. Mitchell handed over the company to his long-time friend to manage it for him a month ago. However, that person held a shareholders' meeting today and almost kicked Mrs. Mann out of the company."Etan's eyebrows tightened. "What?"

    Chapter 391"Jean, I still hold the view that you and Etan are husband and wife. After all, you've married Mr.Mann. There is nothing that cannot be solved between husband and wife. Don't be like enemies."Jean smiled...There were some things that couldn't be resolved between husband and wife, just like her and Etan. In the end...even if they were not enemies, they couldn't have a happy ending.Ellen tried to persuade her, "You should at least think about the child in your womb!"Jean lowered her head and looked at her belly. She pursed her lips and did not say anything. ..."Make an investigate about how many times Jean had met Morgan recently. Where and how long did they meet each other? And when did she call the police?" That was the first order Etan made when he arrived at the company.Elliot immediately replied, "Yes, Sir." He didn't even dare to ask anything.Just as he was about to leave, Etan suddenly called out to him, "Wait..."Elliot stopped immediately, "Sir,

    Chapter 390Etan straightened up his clothes unhurriedly and said coldly, "The man you pick this time is actually good. Morgan is indeed worth trusting. Unfortunately he meet you."Jean became alert when she heard his words.She sat up with her arms on the bed and said, "I'll say it again. There's nothing going on between Morgan and me. Even if I want to be with a man, I won't be with anyone from the Moss family. I went to him just to ask about my father's case."Etan immediately got to the point, "You called the police?""Or what?""You don't believe me, and then why do you come to me?" Etan's face, which had easily eased a little, darkened again.In Cornview, the Mann family was definitely the most powerful.Jean knew this, but she called the police anyway.What did it mean? It meant she didn't trust him."It's one thing for me to believe you, and it's another for me to come to you or not. You're my father's son-in-law. Your father-in-law's missing. Shouldn't you deal with

    Chapter 389Etan's face suddenly changed color. But before he could utter sarcasm, Jean said, "I know you despised what I said. You think I'm humiliating you. You would say I'm not worthy of your caring! I don’t deserve you treating me as an equal! A glance at me would be a stain in your eyes. You would never love me!" Etan's grip on Jean's shoulders grew more fierce.Jean's face went pale with the pain then. She took a breath and scoffed, "But, don't you think you're acting so weird today? I just had a meal with Morgan, and you got so annoyed. Don't you think you're overreacting?""Not to mention that Morgan and I have nothing between us, even if we did, do you need to be mad like this?"Etan felt like his chest was filled with explosives, and each word Jean said was igniting him.Damn woman! How the hell did she want to be screwed? Jean snorted, "Sooner or later, we'll get a divorce. I know you won't let me be your wife forever. I'm well aware of my position!""So… it's onl

    Chapter 388Jean was trembling with pain. Etan and Jean glared at each other and their eyes seemed fighting. One was unconvinced, the other was very mad.Seeing Jean's painful look, Morgan immediately said, "Etan, you almost break her wrist."These words, however, instantly ignited Etan’s fury."Morgan, she is my wife. This is none of your business. Get the hell out of here. Don't think I dare not to mess with you."  Jean roared, "Enough. Could you stop doing that? Just come at me. Don't take out your anger on unrelated person."Etan laughed.‘She simply is defending him like this and telling me to come at her?’Etan only felt that his heart was set on fire, and he nodded, "Well, come at you."     Morgan said, "Etan, you need to calm down!"      "This is between me and my wife and has nothing to do with you."Etan dragged Jean away in strides.Morgan worried that Etan would hurt Jean, but the two were indeed a couple, so their affairs were out of his hands.‘But, what i

    Chapter 387Jean didn't think that Etan flew into a rage because of jealousy.He just felt that as his wife, she secretly ate with another man without his knowledge. He felt that his authority had been challenged and that he was cuckolded.After all, Etan didn’t believe her at all. He doubted her...Morgan didn't expect Jean to defend him right away and she even didn't defend herself.He was a policeman and he had always stood up to protect others. But it was the first time that someone had stood in front of him to protect him.Morgan's original impression of Jean was very complicated. He felt that this woman was scheming, cunning, but somewhat pitiful. But at this time, he felt that perhaps he had had a bias against Jean before.He had no habit of being protected, especially being protected by a woman.Morgan stood forward. "Etan, Ms. Mitchell and I have serious things to talk about today. You think too much."Etan sneered. "Serious things? Morgan, I know you very well. When
