Semua Bab If I were Yours: Bab 371 - Bab 380

"Tyler, how are you recovering so far?" Lilian asked.She walked slowly to Tyler's side, as if she were inquiring casually. Then, she took the seat directly next to him.Seeing this, Jean handed the gift to a nearby maid and returned to her own seat.Tyler looked at Lilian as she walked in. Only then did he start to eat. He replied, "It's been going well."His voice was still deep, but his tone was a lot lighter than before.At this moment, Lilian picked up her fork as well. Her gaze was fixed on Tyler as she asked with a pleasantly surprised expression, "Why are most of the food on the table what I like to eat?"Jean retracted her gaze and swept a casual glance over Lilian. "This is just what we usually have for dinner. Lilian, I think it must've been a long while since you've had a meal with your family," she said calmly.Hearing Jean's words, sadness flickered in Lilian's eyes. She said in a low voice, "That's true. It's been a while since I've had a meal with my family. It

Jean watched Dorian make efforts to help Tyler remember their past and felt a deep sense of sadness.It was clear that Dorian's words had stirred Tyler's emotions as well."Alright. Get some rest," Tyler replied in a low voice.Dorian obediently hummed in agreement. Then, he bade farewell to Tyler before quietly lying down in bed.Jean stood at the door. Just as she was about to enter, she saw Dorian reach out and turn off the bedside lamp. Then, he settled into peaceful sleep.Dorian, who usually needed Jean's coaxing to sleep, was now peacefully sleeping on his own.Jean took a deep breath and withdrew her outstretched hand.She handed the milk to the maid next to her. "He's gone to sleep, so I suppose he doesn't need this. He ate quite a bit at Larson Residence today."The maid nodded gently upon hearing that and took the glass of milk downstairs.Jean followed suit and walked downstairs.After the maid cleaned the glass, she walked back into the living room. She saw Jean

Tyler listened as Jean spoke. He squinted his eyes slightly, fixing his gaze intently on her."Are you suggesting that you want to take this to court?" he asked.Jean remained calm, her gaze cool."Yes," she replied in an impassive tone.She continued, "Dorian has grown up now. He can make his own decision about who he wants to stay with. If he chooses you, then so be it."Jean paused for a moment, her gaze piercing as she glared at Tyler."You may have forgotten, but before you underwent surgery, you promised to return Dorian to me. You were the one who stole him from me in the first place, after all. Giving him back to me now shouldn't be an issue," she said.She added, "If you want to take this to court, I'll do it."Jean's gaze remained extremely calm. She showed no signs of cowering.Tyler's expression darkened even further. The darkness in his eyes seemed intent on devouring Jean whole.Jean smiled faintly and glanced at the time."It's getting late. I have other matte

Tristan delivered his speech nonchalantly, as if he thought his actions were perfectly justified. However, Jean couldn't help but find it ridiculous."Even if you clear things up later, I'll still be burdened with the accusation of plagiarism," Jean responded indifferently."Tristan, we've known each other for years. Have you really not considered the consequences?" she added.Tristan remained silent.Jean maintained her composure and continued, "I'll transfer the shares of the studio into cash for you. I'll do the same with Simone's share. I hope you'll withdraw the lawsuit immediately and issue a public apology. Otherwise, I'll sue you for defamation."Then, Jean hung up the call.One of Jean's employees witnessed how assertive Jean was while in conversation and was momentarily stunned.All of them knew that Jean had always been ignorant of the studio's operations. She usually relied on people like Tristan to manage the studio.When Jean saw that her employees looked at a los

Ms. Walker?It was probably Simone.Jean sighed. She didn't expect that Simone would be by her side helping her.Simone was on pretty good terms with Tristan.Jean exited the texting app with the reporter and went to find Simone's social media account. She typed, "Thank you."After that, she deleted it immediately.Hesitation flashed across her face. In the end, she called her.After all, they had been best friends for so many years.Jean couldn't bear to let it go just yet.It took Simone a long time to pick up.Jean pursed her lips and asked, "How are you doing?""How are you doing?" Simone said at the same time.Jean couldn't help smiling when she heard that. She said softly, "I'm fine. Nothing big. What about you?"The last time Jean heard about Simone was through Alison.Simone took a deep breath. "I'm fine too."Pursing her red lips, Jean asked, "When are you coming back? You're not refusing to come back because of me, are you?"Smiling, Simone said, "How could th
