You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1062
With that, Jennifer followed Laura upstairs to her apartment.They navigated the chaotic streets, climbed the crowded stairs, and squeezed through a narrow hallway before finally reaching Laura's tiny apartment.However, the noise from outside felt a million miles away once they stepped inside.Laura had managed to make the small space feel warm and cozy. Moreover, it was immaculately clean. Still, the cramped apartment made Jennifer feel a pang of sympathy for her.Laura poured Jennifer a cup of warm milk, urging her to drink and warm up. With red-rimmed eyes, Jennifer asked, "How much do you need for the lawyer? Laurie, be honest with me. Are you struggling financially right now?"Laura pursed her lips, then replied, "The lawyer's fees are high, but I've almost managed to scrape enough together.""Stop lying to me," Jennifer said, guilt creeping into her voice. "I know I've been neglecting you and not caring for you like I should have. That's why you've had to go through al

With a grin, Britney winked at Laura. "But I love seeing you and Mr. Moore together. Every time I see you two, it feels like I'm watching a romance drama!"Laura was somewhat speechless upon hearing that. A romance drama? To her, her relationship with Simon was more like something out of a tragic TV show. In an instant, her colleagues started urging her to call Simon. Yet, Laura simply replied with a smile, "He has a business dinner to attend tonight. Besides, this is just a department get-together. If he were here, it'd be hard for us to really enjoy ourselves, right?"And just like that, she managed to sidestep the awkward moment.Laura silently noted that she had to find time to set the record straight with her colleagues. She needed to make it clear that her relationship with Simon was over. Otherwise, they'd continue seeing them as a couple.…Later that evening, Laura and her colleagues headed to a nearby seafood buffet after work. But with such a large group and it bein

Laura masked her discomfort and calmly said, "I've already broken up with him."In an instant, the table fell into an uneasy silence. It was so quiet that even the sound of breathing seemed magnified. Her colleagues shifted awkwardly in their seats. A few even shot Britney pointed looks, silently blaming her for saying too much."Laurie, don't worry about it. You wouldn't have been happy with a man like that anyway," someone reassured her.Another voice chimed in, "Exactly. Men like Mr. Moore live in a completely different world. You deserve someone who puts you first."One by one, they tried to comfort her. However, their words only deepened Laura's shame.If they ever found out Hailey was Simon's real girlfriend—and Laura was just the other woman—what would they think of her then? "Alright, I get it," she responded with a strained smile. "Let's eat. I'm starving!"Her tone made it clear that she didn't want to dwell on the topic any longer. Laura then turned her attention t

Hailey hurried after Simon. He was as cold as ever, but at least he'd agreed to have dinner with her.That was progress. She was certain it wouldn't take long before she could win him over completely. At that thought, Hailey's spirits lifted. "Simon, there's a park nearby. Shall we take a stroll?" she suggested. "Look, there are so many couples out tonight.""I'm tired from work. Let me take you home. It's getting late," Simon replied indifferently.At those words, disappointment flickered across Hailey's face.And sure enough, Simon drove her straight to the entrance of her residential area. "Simon, won't you come in for a bit?" she asked softly, her voice almost pleading. "You could have some coffee and take a break."Besides, one of my housekeepers is amazing at massages—it's perfect for relieving tension. Didn't you say you were tired? I'll ask him to give you a massage."Yet, Simon found her chatter insufferably annoying. With a frown, he responded, "No, it's late. I don

It was only then that Laura recalled her neighbor's words from two days ago. Someone from building management had knocked on her door, but she wasn't home. "Alright, just a moment!" she answered. Then, Laura grabbed a jacket and hurriedly threw it over her pajamas before rushing to the door.The moment she opened it, a group of thugs barged in. Michel was the last to enter. He sauntered into the apartment with his hands in his pockets, a cocky grin playing on his lips.Laura froze in shock, and then demanded, "What are you doing here?""You don't remember?" Michel sneered. "I told you, Laura. One day, you'd be begging me on your knees."Without missing a beat, Laura spat, "Get out now! Otherwise, we'll see who ends up begging whom."Suddenly, Michel burst out laughing. He narrowed his eyes and replied, "You really think your martial arts skills are enough to take me down? These men I brought with me are professionals. If you want to put up a fight, go ahead. They'll enjoy it."

Everyone in the room turned toward the door, alarm etched on their faces.Standing there in a long black trench coat was Simon. Wearing a cold expression, he ordered, "Let her go and get the hell out of here!"Michel had harbored resentment against Simon for some time. He'd been just one step away from claiming Laura, but Simon had to show up and ruin everything!At that point, Michel had lost all sense of reason. He released Laura and stormed toward Simon."Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Moore himself!" he mocked. "So, this is where you come to have fun now, huh? Don't you know you're here in the red-light district? Women here sell themselves for cash! What's the matter, Mr. Moore? Is this your type now?"Michel's words had barely settled when a murderous glint flashed in Simon's eyes. Without warning, he grabbed Michel by the collar and yanked him forward.Two sharp slaps echoed through the room as Michel's head whipped from one side to the other."You! Simon Moore, how dare you

Only then did Laura snap back to reality. Without thinking, she nestled into Simon's warm embrace, and as she listened to the steady beat of his heart, a sense of calm began to wash over her.That was until she saw the blood still trickling from the wound on his arm. Laura's eyes widened in shock, and she pulled away from him instantly. "You're hurt!" she exclaimed, her voice thick with concern.Simon grabbed a couple of tissues and wiped away the blood before saying, "I just got nicked by their knife. It's nothing.""Let me take you to the hospital," Laura replied, her voice quivering with emotion. Tears welled up in her eyes as her worry was laid bare. He took her hand and calmly responded, "It's just a superficial wound. I'm fine. Do you have a first aid kit? Just wrap it up for me.""Are you sure? What if it's deeper than it looks? What if it gets infected?" Laura asked, her voice tinged with worry.Simon gave her a reassuring glance. "Trust me. It's nothing. Just get the

Noticing Simon's silence, Laura turned toward him with curiosity. As soon as she did, he reached out to cradle the back of her head. In the next instant, his tall frame leaned in. Each breath he took was heavy as he savored the softness of her lips. Laura's heart pounded violently in her chest. She tried to push him away, but his arm tightened around her waist. It was as if he wanted to meld their bodies together.Under Simon's dominance, Laura gradually gave up resisting. Memories of him arriving just in time to save her flashed through her mind. Suddenly, the void in her heart felt as though it had been filled, though she couldn't say with what.Yet, she didn't want to think about it—couldn't, even if she tried. His fervent kisses overwhelmed her, leaving her weak in his arms. Just as things were about to intensify, Laura abruptly stopped him.Simon paused, desire simmering in his dark eyes. He looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?"Her cheeks burned as she answere

You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1196
After visiting Harry, Simon left the prison with a heavy heart.He drove along a mountain road, letting the cool air blow against his face. He smoked a few cigarettes to clear his mind before finally heading home.It was late when he got back. Laura was in the kitchen trying to make something to eat. Simon sighed and walked over. "Go rest. I'll handle this."He took the ladle from her and began cooking.Laura didn't leave. Instead, she stood to the side, lost in thought. When had Simon started becoming this gentle? He used to be so distant and untouchable.She had been with him for five years, yet she had never known he could cook.Deep down, Laura wished he stayed the same cold and unreachable figure. At least then, she could keep her feelings in check.Simon asked, "Why aren't you resting?""I… I've been lying down all day. I just wanted to stand for a bit." She came up with an excuse. After a brief pause, she hesitantly asked, "Did you smoke?"Simon only then noticed the

Harry finally realized Simon had orchestrated everything. He had believed the Jensens were the mastermind behind this.Suddenly, thoughts of his daughter flooded his mind. He tried to stand up and confront Simon, but the handcuffs and shackles restrained him, forcing him to remain seated.Harry glared at Simon. "What have you done to my daughter? Tell me! What exactly have you done to her?"Simon smirked. "Nothing much. I simply taught her how to serve me, please me, and keep me happy."Harry's heart dropped. The thought of his daughter, whom he had lovingly raised and cherished, reduced to Simon's plaything after his imprisonment, tore his heart to pieces.It was a fate worse than death. "You! What happened to your father back then was my fault! I take full responsibility!" Harry's voice trembled, "But Laura is innocent. I beg you, let her go. Don't hurt her! You can kill me if you want. I'm begging you. Please, let Laura go!" Simon gazed at the desperate man before him. Ye

It was as if Simon blamed Laura for always asking stubborn questions.Their relationship was far from normal. He didn't understand why she insisted on getting to the bottom of everything.Laura's heart dropped. She returned to the bedroom, feeling utterly lost. Her heart ached. Simon was the most ruthless, selfish, and self-serving man she had ever met.Everything she had endured last night seemed insignificant to him. What mattered to him was that his mother hadn't caused her death, sparing him from any trouble.Around noon, Simon entered the bedroom.Laura was sitting on the rocking chair by the window, staring outside. The once-proud Laura now carried a sense of melancholy.Simon's heart tightened seeing her pale face. Unfortunately, apologizing wasn't his strong suit. He was too prideful for that.Still, he walked over to her and stroked her hair. "Don't take what I said to my mother earlier to heart. It wasn't aimed at you. Laura, you've been with me for five years. I thoug
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1193
Simon's words comforted Laura.After finishing the soup, she burrowed back under the covers. She peeked out to gaze at Simon, who was working on the couch. She could never get enough of him no matter how long she looked.Even though she knew she was being pathetic, she couldn't help herself. She was charmed by Simon. Every move he made exuded the poise and charisma of a mature man. Especially when he was focused on his work, it always stirred a sense of admiration in her.Eventually, drowsiness took over, and she drifted off to sleep again. She wasn't sure how long she slept. But later, she groggily heard Simon's voice as he spoke on the phone.Simon was on the balcony, talking to Fiona. Fiona feigned innocence. "How would I know she was on the balcony? I just noticed it was about to rain and wanted to close the balcony door for you."Simon's tone sharpened. "Mom, there's no point in making these excuses. We're mother and son. I can see right through you. If you pull another st

Laura understood Simon was technically still single since he wasn't married yet. She could still deceive herself and live in denial. But he would become someone else's husband once he married. Would she want to be his mistress?If it came to that, even she would despise herself.Simon hummed. "You can decide for yourself when that time comes. You can leave if you don't want to stay with me. But my promise will be void. You'd better believe me when I say, only I can save your father."Looking at Simon's emotionless face, Laura suddenly realized how cruel and cold-hearted he truly was. The feelings she thought they shared, the love and devotion she had poured her heart and youth into, were but a transaction in his eyes.Laura nodded. "Then let's set a deadline. I'll give you one year. If, after one year, my father's case remains unchanged, then we'll… cut ties."Simon replied calmly, "Fine, as you wish. Now get some rest."Only then did Laura close her eyes and stop resisting his t

Simon didn't give Laura any chance to react. He took a sip and then lowered his head before capturing her lips.Laura's eyes widened as Simon forced her to swallow the soup. She pounded on his shoulders before Simon let her go.He demanded, "I'll have no choice but to feed you like this if you don't drink the soup and take your medicine."Laura glared at him, her face flushed with both anger and embarrassment. She grabbed the bowl and downed the soup in one go. Then, she took the cold medicine he handed her.Simon finally relaxed and tucked her in. "Sleep."But how could Laura possibly fall asleep? Especially when Simon lay down beside her, pulling her into his embrace. She gritted her teeth. "Can you not touch me? I'm begging you. Don't touch me!"Simon didn't respond. He held her tightly, his warmth radiating through the thin fabric of her pajamas.Later, he noticed Laura was trembling and thought she was cold.When he turned her to face him, he realized her eyes were red, an

A sharp pain pierced Simon's chest. In the next instant, he held Laura tightly, as though trying to shield her from the cold. But still, she trembled uncontrollably. Without hesitation, he rushed to fill the bathtub with warm water and slowly placed her into it.Simon stroked Laura's pale face, then gently instructed, "Stay in the bath for a while. I'll make you some peppermint tea. If you start running a fever later, we might need to go to the hospital."Having said that, he turned to leave the bathroom. But as soon as he closed the door, he heard her crying.Simon froze in his tracks, then turned and rushed back in. He quickly undressed and stepped into the tub before pulling her into his arms. "I'm sorry, Laurie. I'm so sorry I came home so late," he apologized in a hoarse voice. "I-I didn't know they would—""Go away! Don't touch me!"Laura shoved him away with all her strength. Her voice broke as she screamed, "While you were happily spending time with your family, I was

As soon as Simon finished speaking, he froze. He had repeated what Laura had told him that day, almost exactly.He was a lawyer. Yet, his response was far from professional. Laura's words and actions had crept into his thoughts without him even realizing it. The realization unsettled him, leaving him feeling irritated.Meanwhile, William avoided Simon's gaze, guilt written all over his face. "Why are you bringing this up again? I've already told you. Those people came from some poor countryside. They don't deserve one million dollars."Besides, who in the right mind would complain about having too much money? If I can settle this with 200 thousand dollars, why should I pay a million? Didn't you say you found evidence to clear Brooks Group of most of the responsibility?"Simon had indeed found such evidence. That crucial piece meant Nick's family couldn't demand much compensation. Yet, a tightness gripped his chest, as if something unseen was pressing down on him. For some reaso

Fiona fixed her gaze on Simon, then replied, "Tell me honestly. Do you really only see Laura as the daughter of our enemy? If so, why do you keep putting off your engagement to Hailey?"Is there something else on your mind? Let me warn you. If you've developed any sympathy for that bitch, I'll end my life right in front of you!"Simon's heart sank as he heard that. He could clearly see the unwavering determination in her eyes. He would never doubt Fiona's words. After all, it was Harry who had caused Anthony's death, and that had shattered her life completely.The humiliation and torment Fiona had once endured flooded Simon's mind. He clenched his fists, unwilling to dwell on it any longer.He knew that Fiona would never accept Laura. The incident was something Fiona could never get over. Suddenly, she became agitated and grabbed Simon's arm tightly. Her voice was desperate as she demanded, "Tell me now. Do you have feelings for that bitch? Answer me!""Mom, calm down. I promi
