With a melancholic smile, Jennifer answered, "It doesn't matter anymore! Whether it was my birthday or any other day, the person you choose will always be Rachel. "But tell me, Maxwell, what have I done wrong? Why do you keep hurting and humiliating me like this?"Her swollen, red-rimmed eyes were brimming with tears. Nevertheless, she held them back, determined not to let them fall. Maxwell was not one to back down easily, so he quickly came up with an excuse."Grandpa is getting older. I'm afraid that our sudden divorce would be too much for him to handle."The pain in Jennifer's heart intensified after hearing that. It turned out that Maxwell had been dragging the divorce solely because of Robert. How could she have been so foolish and harbored hope that he would eventually come around and see her worth? Jennifer rubbed her eyes vigorously and said stubbornly, "Then tell him that I've cheated on you, that I'm not worthy of being his granddaughter-in-law. That way, Grandpa

Or perhaps Jennifer did not make herself clear?Suddenly, it was as if Maxwell had read her thoughts. He smirked and said, "Jennifer, you'll come back eventually."His tone was cold yet confident.Laura watched his retreating figure, gritting her teeth in frustration as she told Jennifer, "That despicable man! He's taking advantage of your soft heart and assuming you can't bear to divorce him!"Jennifer realized that her emotions had been tied to how Maxwell treated her. It was as if he determined every bit of joy, anger, and sorrow she experienced.She did not want a life like that anymore. She did not want to endure sleepless nights, nor did she want him to control her emotions. Jennifer longed for a life free from fear and uncertainty, where she did not need to be burdened by worries.Therefore, she had decided. "You told me you had found Simon to take on my case last night. Is that true? Given his relationship with Maxwell, how could he possibly help me?" Jennifer asked L

This marked Laura's fourth encounter with Simon. The first time, she had begged him to help with Jennifer's lawsuit against Rachel's relatives. However, Simon had asked for Laura to be his lover in return. Thus, she promptly refused.The second time was at Jennifer's house. Unfortunately, Laura's towel slipped in Simon's presence, exposing her to his lecherous stare. Their third encounter was at the ball, and they were paired together by chance. His slender hand traced her waist, openly expressing his desires.The more Laura thought about it, the more she felt like she was transparent. It was as if Simon could see right through her with just one glance. "Ms. Scott, I haven't spoken yet. Why are you blushing already?"The corners of Simon's mouth curled into a smirk. He then rose and strode over to her.There was no hint of tobacco on him. There was only the fresh scent of mint. Simon leaned in, and his lips almost touched her flushed earlobe. In a flirty tone, he asked, "

It seemed that the person who investigated Laura had not brought this up to Simon. Laura raised her chin proudly and answered, "Yes, my fiancé will be asking for my hand in marriage at the end of the year."Simon had always been adept at concealing his emotions. "Congratulations," he responded with an enigmatic smile. Then, he sat back in his chair. "You can go now. Leave the information about your friend's case. I'll review it and get back to you."Laura was somewhat taken aback. Was that it? She had expected him to put up a fight. She could not believe that not only did he not give her a hard time, but he also agreed to take on Jennifer's case. "Thank you. When should I transfer the lawyer's fee to you?" she asked with gratitude. "No rush," Simon replied lightly, causing Laura's heart to skip a beat again. After all, his willingness to help without accepting payment meant that she owed him a significant favor.Laura preferred if Simon took the lawyer's fees. That way

Suddenly, Jennifer felt powerless. She realized how vast the world was, yet, there was nowhere for her to escape and no path to take.Harry hesitated before saying, "I'm afraid that if you spend another day at my place, it'll be the end of my family.""I know what to do, Mr. Scott. I'll go home tonight. Sorry for troubling you for the past few days," Jennifer responded, her voice choking with emotion while tears welled up in her eyes. Harry reminded her, "Also… Please speak well of me in front of Mr. Lance. As you know, his words can determine the life or death of our family. I don't have a choice, either."Jennifer merely hummed in acknowledgment, waves of sorrow and anguish washing over her. She had not expected Maxwell to resort to such tactics to force her to return. What made it worse was that he had made her go back and beg him willingly. On the way back to the villa, Jennifer chuckled self-deprecatingly. She even felt like she was nothing but an ant to Maxwell. She

But what was Jennifer to Maxwell? He could not provide her marital bliss, yet he refused to grant her freedom. The more Jennifer thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. She immediately grabbed the plate in front of her and devoured the pasta. Her eyes brimmed with tears before streaming down her cheeks. Witnessing her cry over a mere meal, Maxwell angrily said, "I wanted you to eat more because you've lost weight. Is that putting you in a difficult position?""I don't need your insincere kindness!" Jennifer stubbornly wiped her tears and continued eating. All she wanted was to finish her food as he requested so she could discuss the Scott family's matter with him. Maxwell served her some other dishes. "Don't just eat the pasta."Jennifer then mechanically stuffed the food into her mouth. Although she was choking, she forced herself to swallow. Finally, Maxwell could not stand it any longer. He grabbed her plate and coldly remarked, "Forget it. If you don't wa

"Jennifer Yale, do you not like this or do you not like it when it's with me?" Maxwell asked.His tone was sharp, his intent gaze fixed on her as he pressed, "Did you enjoy it when the man you cheated with touched you?""You're despicable!" Jennifer yelled. She was so frustrated that she cried. "Since you think I'm dirty and find me repulsive, why don't we just get a divorce? Why do you want to humiliate and torture me?" Maxwell felt his chest tighten as he thought about Jennifer wanting a divorce and her affair. He sensed that he was on the verge of losing his rationality.Suddenly, he cupped her cheeks and planted a passionate kiss on her lips, fierce and unrelenting like a storm. On the other hand, Jennifer felt pain and numbness in her lips. She could feel it whenever Maxwell was gentle.However, right then, he was venting his frustrations on her. It was not until Maxwell tasted the salty tears that he slowly released her. Looking into Jennifer's defiant and resentful

"Tell me! Is there anything else?" Maxwell asked sternly.Lilia sighed and answered, "Recently, Ms. Walker likes to watch soap operas. She'd watch them while crying, saying she's the third party. She also mentioned she has ruined your family. "And today, she told me she wants to see you one last time before quietly leaving Haven City. But I… I can't bear to see her torment herself like this. After all, Ms. Walker is a nice person."Maxwell never imagined that Rachel would want to leave the city quietly. Feeling nervous, he immediately opened her room door. Rachel seemed somewhat surprised and hurriedly hid something under the bed."What are you hiding?" Maxwell asked somberly."Nothing." Rachel nervously added, "Max, can we have a good chat? T-There's something I want to tell you."Her words carried the weight of a farewell. Right away, Maxwell crouched down to pull out the box from under the bed. "You've packed your luggage. What do you want to do?" he inquired sharply.
