Chris sat in silence until Tyler ordered him to drive off.Back at the Larson Group office, the senior management was worrying in the meeting room about Tyler’s lateness. Tyler was never late to meetings because some issues cropped up in the company's projects lately. The suffering of the management staff increased with each minute. When Tyler finally showed up, they anticipated him to scream and shout, but he was oddly agreeable and easygoing that day. He even gave them advice on future growth after hearing their business reporting.Seated to Tyler's right, Lilian Page looked up briefly from her minute-taking. She started working for Tyler after her recovery three years ago. He was rarely calm and mild in the past five years.Ever since "Joyce" gave birth and moved back to Oakside Villa, Lilian felt sidelined by Tyler. But Tyler wasn't exactly close to Joyce either. Confused by Tyler's good spirits, she followed behind him after the meeting ended.When she noticed that he was

After a slight pause, Lilian mustered a smile."Okay. I'll leave now."　　With each step she took, she wished that Tyler would stop her. But he did not look away from his papers until she left his office.Standing at the door, she glanced at the man with a heavy expression. She sensed that they were drifting further apart.She shut the door behind her and left his office. If Tyler would keep a woman by his side, she vowed to be the one he chose.On the same day, Joyce rushed to Oakside Villa after she was done with her schedule. She entered the living room and found Mr. Anders briefing the servants on dinner arrangements. She announced, "Dorian likes shrimp tacos, so load up on that. By the way …"Joyce immediately rattled off a few of Dorian's favorite dishes upon her arrival, as though she was the owner of the place. Mr. Anders responded suavely, "Ms. Michaels, Mr. Larson has requested us to make the dishes that you mentioned."She raised a brow and chuckled amusedly."Loo

When Dorian returned to the first floor, he huddled around Tyler and wouldn't budge no matter how Joyce tried to woo him. Secretly, she wanted to give the boy a good smacking, but she needed to put on a kind and motherly image in front of Tyler.After dinner, Joyce had to take a work call. Still, she hung around a bit because Tyler didn't show signs of leaving anytime soon. She took a seat beside Tyler.Dorian noted that and remarked, "If you're busy, you can leave. I won't ask you to stay."Whenever Tyler was not around, Joyce couldn't be bothered to chat with Dorian. She'd stay longer at Oakside Villa only if Tyler was around.Embarrassed by Dorian's remark, she chuckled."I don't have anything important. I'll spend some time with you."Dorian shot her a quiet look but said nothing. Joyce's eyes never left Tyler after she took her seat."Tyler, I received a call from the Hewetts. They invited me to Sheldon's engagement ceremony tomorrow. Are you going?"The Hewetts had want

Jean stood frozen but collected herself quickly. With a calm smile, she looked away and expertly hid her uneasiness. In contrast, Simone's heart almost stopped when she spotted Tyler."Why is he here?"It was an unexpected situation because they initially thought that the Hewetts and the Larsons were not in the same social circle. Simone shot nervous glances at a relaxed Jean. Jean held a glass of juice in her hand while explaining, "The two families were from Henkel and active in the same guild, after all. They might not have crossed paths in the past, but they might work together in the future."Simone was secretly relieved when she saw that Jean remained cool in Tyler's presence. She was about to say something when she noticed Tyler approaching them, causing her heart to race. She whispered urgently, "He's coming!"Jean tightened her hold on the glass as a frown appeared on her face. She could not ignore his imposing presence anymore.Taking a deep breath, she had her emoti

Once Tyler was seated, Raymond excused himself with a smile."Mr. Larson, I have to go now."Tyler gave him a light nod."Of course, Sir Raymond."Raymond took leave to make the other arrangements. Despite his wish to forge connections with the Larsons, it wouldn't be wise to ignore his other allies at his son's engagement ceremony.Jean was seated to Tyler's left and had a grim look on her face. Simone, who sat on the other side of Jean, almost screamed for help.She cautiously glanced at Jean but was relieved to find her friend watching the ceremony with calmness."Why the sudden decision to start a career in Henkel?" Tyler questioned.When Jean didn't answer, he directed his gaze at her, as though he was patiently waiting for a reply.Joyce was disturbed by the fact that Tyler had initiated a conversation with Jean.She held his hand and quickly explained, "Well, Henkel is her hometown after all. She can't live abroad forever. It's great that she's decided to grow her care
