Even though Dorian wasn't Jean's son, she didn't have the heart to leave his side whenever she recalled how obedient and understanding he was.Meanwhile, Dorian bound down the stairs in search of Albert. He was unable to locate the butler; instead, he found his father reading a book in the living room.Hence, he ran over to Tyler's side happily."Daddy, Aunt Jean is awake. But I don't have any toiletries meant for her in my room. Can you help me grab some toiletries for her?"Tyler put down his book upon hearing Dorian's request. The little boy looked so bright and cheerful, which meant he was definitely recovering well.He reached out to feel Dorian's forehead. The child responded by smacking his hand away."My illness is gone thanks to Aunt Jean! Daddy, hurry up and fetch some toiletries for me, okay? Aunt Jean's still waiting for me!"Tyler could only gaze at his son in exasperation. "You won't fall sick as long as Jean stays with you, right?""Yup!" Dorian nodded seriously.

Tristan visibly relaxed as soon as Jean gave him her answer.He nodded before continuing, "The cast is ready for the shoot. Let's begin now."Jean inclined her head slightly before casting a glance at Dorian, who was still holding her hand. Then, she grabbed a chair for him to sit on."Stay here, Dorian. You can come looking for me if you need anything. I'm going to start working now."Dorian nodded obediently. He watched as Jean started working on the shoot. Then, he started to wait for Jean's return while seated on his chair.Albert couldn't help but marvel at the power of genetics when he noticed how patient Dorian was.After all, Dorian was the type who could never sit still for a few minutes when he had to watch Joyce play the piano in the past.Meanwhile, Cassie rushed to the set once she received Tristan's message. She didn't have any other acting gigs at the moment. Tyler didn't give her any additional gigs as well.That was why Cassie could only return to the set as

Joyce sounded extremely gentle and harmless. As a result, Cassie lowered her guard against her.Cassie explained, "The reason why I called you today is to tell you something. Jean brought a child to the set today. His name's Dorian, if I'm not mistaken. "When I looked at his face, I was reminded of Mr. Larson because of how similar they look. That's why I was thinking if the boy happens to be your and Mr. Larson's child."Joyce's grip around her phone tightened considerably at that moment.During the past few years, Tyler rarely permitted Dorian to appear with Joyce in public. This was because he didn't want the paparazzi to take photos of the child.Even if Joyce were to head over to Teak Villa just to pick Dorian up, she'd have to arrive and leave in a car which Albert had personally arranged for her.To think that Tyler would permit Jean to take Dorian with her to the set …Not to mention, the set was crawling with various celebrities and reporters as well.If Jean wasn't c

After Joyce's car slowed down to a halt outside Larson Group, Albert came over to open the door for her.Once Dorian got out of the car, he moved to stand next to Albert immediately.Joyce put her phone away, a gentle smile now gracing her features. She looked at Albert while thanking him courteously."Thank you."Albert took Dorian's hand while saying, "Mr. Larson is currently in a meeting. He told me to take Dorian to his office."A hint of dissatisfaction streaked across Joyce's eyes at that moment. Still, she retained her gentle smile."Dorian and I can wait for him to get off work in his office," she proposed.Albert replied courteously, "Mr. Larson has other plans for tonight. You can drop by next time, Ms. Michaels."After that, he led Dorian into the company.Joyce watched them leave, her expression already darkening. At the same time, she clenched her fists tightly.Dorian turned to glance at Joyce after taking a few steps. He noticed that she remained rooted to the

The driver dared not waste any time after hearing the order. He cruised toward the prison immediately.At the prison, Barnabas received word that he had visitors. A guard soon led him to the visitor's room.The moment he laid his eyes on Joyce, his expression brightened immediately as though he had seen his savior."You're finally here, Joyce! When can you get me out of this place? No one can possibly live in a place like this!"Joyce looked very serious. "I did talk to Jean about posting bail for you. In fact, I even begged her for your sake. But she doesn't want to let you off the hook. I don't know what to do now, Uncle Barnabas."Upon hearing Joyce's answer, Barnabas wrung his hands tightly while looking murderous."That ingrate! I knew she'd never let me off so easily!"Joyce chewed on her bottom lip while looking anxious and guilty."I'm sorry, Uncle Barnabas. It's all my fault that you're in jail right now."She started weeping softly at the end of her sentences.Barna
