All Chapters of If I were Yours: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Joyce started panicking on the inside.Dorian noticed Joyce approaching him with a small smile on her lips. He took a deep breath before uttering in a low voice, "No, I didn't get to know anyone here."Joyce's expression faltered slightly when she noticed how stiff and awkward Dorian sounded. Still, she managed to recompose herself in a flash."Look at you, all grown up now. To think that you're starting to keep secrets from your own mother."Joyce dropped the subject. She knew that Dorian had always been independent.She remained seated for a while before drawing to her feet. With a serene smile on her lips, Joyce stated softly, "Dorian, why don't you stay here with Mr. Anders? I'll be right back."Dorian never bothered answering her. All he did was look elsewhere.Albert just nodded in response. He stayed by Dorian's side quietly without a complaint.Joyce's smile vanished the moment she stepped out of the private room. She strode down the stairs right away, soon spotting D

Joyce's expression crumbled instantly when she saw Dorian appearing at the stairway. Thankfully, Albert appeared right on time. He approached Dorian swiftly before moving to stand in front of him, thus blocking everyone's line of sight."Let's return to our seats, Dorian."Dorian shook Albert's hand away before heading downstairs. "I wanna be with Daddy!" he retorted.Albert turned to look at Tyler immediately. Tyler didn't seem to disapprove of Dorian's actions, so Albert decided to let Dorian have his way for now.On the other hand, Dorothy and Joyce were clearly panicking. The latter even jogged over to Dorian's side before bending over to look him in the eye."The banquet's about to start, Dorian. Let me take you upstairs, alright?"Joyce scooped Dorian into her arms as she spoke. Then, she started jogging up the stairs despite the fact that she was wearing high heels.Dorian wanted to resist Joyce at first, but she had him trapped in her arms the whole time. It was as t

"I happened to stumble upon this garden, so I planned to take a stroll and enjoy the scenery," Jean answered while staring at Joyce.Joyce wasn't sure if Jean had overheard her conversation with her lover, so she decided to probe her for an answer. "Did you hear anything, then?""What's the answer you're looking for?" Jean questioned, her calm eyes meeting Joyce's flustered expression."N-Nothing! I heard that this hotel's garden is pretty famous. Many couples love taking strolls in this garden. You know how bold some couples are. I was just worried that you might feel awkward if you happened to overhear some … indecent sounds."Joyce raised a hand to tuck a stray lock behind her ear as she spoke in faux concern for Jean.Jean's lips curled into a smirk. She didn't seem to care about Joyce's response at all."Oh? In that case, I'll be leaving now.""Why don't we chat for a moment, Jean?" Joyce said immediately. "I know you hate me, but I hope you won't hurt my son. He's innocent

Tyler's voice drifted from a short distance away. Jean turned to see him approaching her, Sydney, and Glenn.She replied nonchalantly, "I was about to leave."As of now, Sydney was completely under Glenn's spell. Jean needed to locate the golden opportunity to expose Glenn's true colors in front of Sydney.Obviously, the opportunity was nowhere to be found today.Joyce had already returned to the banquet hall when Jean interrupted Sydney and Glenn's moment earlier. She was watching the entire situation play out silently from a distance away.After all, she was worried that Jean might have overheard her and Glenn's conversation in the garden. By keeping an eye on things, she'd be able to come to Glenn's aid should Jean say anything unnecessary.Unexpectedly, Tyler actually approached the group to check on Jean.Joyce quickly joined him as soon as she saw him."Tyler, Dorian and Albert have already gone home. You should—"Jean was reminded by the things Joyce had told her in the garden,

Tyler gestured for Jean to enter Teak Villa. He had shed his usual cold and sharp bearing, so he looked more like a chivalrous gentleman at the moment.Jean shot Tyler a look while feeling slightly weirded out. If he had shown her this gentlemanly side consistently during the three years they were together, she would've fallen for him back then.At that moment, she felt apprehensive about the invitation. Still, she was compelled to accept it due to her thoughts about Dorian.Soon, Jean entered Teak Villa. She used to recognize every inch of the house. Now that she stepped into it, she realized that everything had changed.Even though she wanted to see Dorian very badly, she had to suppress her impatience and eagerness because of Tyler's leisurely pace.That man was known for his paranoia, after all. Jean was worried that he would start to suspect her intentions if she were to behave erratically.Not to mention, she had already lost control of her emotions at the banquet earlier.
