All Chapters of If I were Yours: Chapter 531 - Chapter 540

Jean was startled to see him, but moments later, she began to smile faintly."Mr. Jacobs."When Toby saw Jean approaching, he smiled and came over to her.Jean was still holding her jacket. Toby glanced at it before taking her briefcase from her and saying, "Put your jacket on first. It's getting cold. You might get sick again."Toby calmly took Jean's briefcase from her. It was as if it had been his job to do it in the first place.At first, Jean was startled, but she soon nodded in agreement.After putting on her jacket, she wanted to take her briefcase back from Toby."You can give it back to me now," she said softly.Yet, Toby did not pass the briefcase back to Jean. He simply said, "You overworked yourself today. I'm sure you're exhausted. I'll help you carry your briefcase. It's not a big deal."Upon hearing that, Jean chuckled and said, "I don't feel that tired."At the very least, she liked this workaholic side of her.Toby chuckled at her reaction. "I never thought

Jean was indeed nervous. After all, this was a prominent family. Even though her identity was just an act, she couldn't help but feel anxious.If she didn't manage to please Miriam, it would certainly be a significant loss for Toby.Toby held Jean's hand tightly and said in a gentle tone, "Don't worry. I know you can do it."Nodding, Jean entered the Jacobs villa with Toby.The interior of the villa was luxuriously decorated. As Jean was led in by Toby, she noticed that a few people were standing in groups in the courtyard."Hey, isn't that Toby?" one of the guests chirped. "And that person beside him must be today's star—his girlfriend," another said.Toby didn't introduce her, and Jean didn't ask about them. She looked at the two who had spoken with an indifferent gaze. She furrowed her brows when she noticed the mockery in their eyes.It was clear that even though Toby was now in charge of the Jacobs family, these people still didn't take him seriously.Toby walked past th

Miriam smiled excitedly. Toby ordered the maids to bring in the gifts. A few of them were those that Jean picked out. One in particular was an item from Aeston.It was a toy made from woven straw and was hard to come by. Toby had searched far and wide before finally obtaining it from an elderly farmer. These toys were commonly used by locals in their region as entertainment to cure boredom.When the others saw that this toy was made of straw, their faces fell in disdain. Elena Stirling sneered and commented, "I was wondering what it would be. But it's nothing more than this shabby thing? What do you take my family for, Ms. Michaels? This rubbish is hardly worth our time."Elena had remained silent earlier, searching for something to mock. However, now that she saw the simple straw toy Jean had presented, she finally found an opportunity.The Jacobs family was a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, considered to be a wealthy household. Jean maintained her composure, o

Jean wore a faint smile and said in a calm tone, "Thank you for the compliment, Ms. Weston."Aria's expression shifted at Jean's response, only coming to realize that Jean was not someone to be trifled with.Miriam, upon hearing Jean's voice, focused her gaze on Aria. She asked with a smile, "What are you two talking about?"From Miriam's tone, Aria knew that she had accepted Jean. All she could do now was smile sweetly. "I was just telling Ms. Michaels how beautiful she was. And she has a great sense of style too. She complements Toby perfectly."Aria bit her tongue, feeling repulsed by herself.Jean still wore the same calm smile.Miriam nodded. "You're right. Jean is indeed beautiful. But you're not bad either."Not bad?Aria's face fell at Miriam's words. Miriam seemed to be implying that while she may not be as beautiful as Jean, she was not unattractive either.Aria took a deep breath, involuntarily clenching her spoon tightly. To make matters worse, she noticed that Fin

"Fine. You two are still in the honeymoon phase, and you should spend the evening together. Get some rest. I'm going to sleep as well."Miriam got up slowly from the couch, and Jean followed her. A hint of embarrassment flashed across her eyes as her cheeks reddened unconsciously. But it was because of this that the act looked especially convincing.After escorting Miriam back to her room, Jean exited the room. At the door, she noticed Elena and Finn standing there. Confusion and suspicion immediately washed over her.Elena glanced at Jean and closed the door to Miriam's room. "Get some rest, Mom." Miriam didn't reply. Elena didn't feel awkward over this and left.Finn stared at Jean for a while before chuckling. "You're an outstanding woman, Ms. Michaels. It's quite a downgrade to be with a bastard."It was clear Finn intended to make Toby uncomfortable by calling him a bastard child.Toby's gaze grew cold. He was about to retort when Jean spoke up. "You're wrong, Mr. Finn. No
