Chapter 268 Old Friend

The moment Zenith saw Jean, his face lit up with happiness. “I remember that you used to like these dolls when you were young. Do you still like them? I’ll buy them for you.”

“Uncle, I’m not a child anymore. But I will gratefully accept it if you were to get me one.” Jean replied to him with a giggle.

“Jean, you really know how to please your elders. With your dad…” Zenith’s face fell. He slapped himself on his thigh and changed the topic.

“I’ll go get you something to drink.” Zenith pushed himself up and walked to the kitchen.

Jensen had been listening to their conversation at the side. He quietly said to Jean, “My dad has always talked about Mr. Eyer. He never imagined Mr. Eyer leaving us so soon. I hope you don’t mind Jean.”

Jean shook her head.

“I don’t. I’m sure my dad in heaven would be pleased that people remember him.”

Her phone rang. She checked the caller ID and frowned. She declined the call without a second thought, but the caller kept calling.

“I’ll go help my dad.”

Jensen noticed what she was doing and quickly excused himself.

Jean chewed on her lips and when the phone rang again picked it up.

“What do you want?” She asked in an annoyed tone.

“Where are you?”

“Mr. Royden, I am my own person; I don’t have to report to you.”

She had said all she wanted to say to him, so she had not expected him to call her after that.

“There are a lot of reporters eyeing the relationship between you and Jensen Rocher. I advise you to keep a distance from him, and also fire him.”

Jean bit her bottom lip.
