You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 305
Maxwell asked, "Can we bail Zion out now that he's severely injured?""It'll be hard." Simon sighed. "The court has filed the case. We can postpone the trial date at most. But they will not allow Zion to be bailed out."Jennifer had anticipated this. Rachel would never be able to dance again because of the injury inflicted by Zion. Of course, she wouldn't let him off. No matter how influential Maxwell was, he wasn't above the law. He had already done enough for her. Jennifer had made up her mind. But she was anxiously waiting for news about Zion's surgery and couldn't focus on her issues with Maxwell.A few hours later, the nurse finally wheeled Zion out of the operation room. This was the first time Jennifer had seen her father since he was imprisoned."Dad!" She rushed to the bedside but was pulled back by the police. Zion was still under anesthesia, but his hair was turning gray. He seemed to have aged significantly in the past month. Jennifer's heart tightened and she

Maxwell's words lay heavy over Jennifer's heart. So, he still felt for Rachel. He also believed that her father deserved to be jailed and that everything was her father's fault.Sensing the silence, Maxwell thought he had convinced her and continued, "You have to understand. When your father crashed into Rachel, it was only due to luck that she escaped with broken legs. She could have lost her life if she hadn't dodged in time."Jennifer's heart tightened hearing Maxwell defend Rachel, but she couldn't argue against it. Tears welled up in her eyes and she shook her head. "Yes, my father was in the wrong. But he did this for me. He is still my father no matter what. And I have to save him."Maxwell's tone turned colder at her stubbornness. "And how will you do that? Do you have a way to fight the law?"Jennifer felt defeated and muttered softly, "Mr. Moore said we can settle this privately if Rachel withdraws the lawsuit. My father...won't have to go to prison. Maxwell, please.

Maxwell took out the scarf Jennifer had knitted for him from the wardrobe. "Come help me put it on." Jennifer silently walked over and stood on her tiptoes, wrapping the scarf around his neck. Her heart shattered from the pain.Maxwell held her hand and whispered softly, "Let's go. If we delay things any longer, the courthouse will close for the day." Since the decision had been made, there was no point in dragging it out. He knew how much Jennifer hoped to save Zion. Maxwell couldn't bear to see Jennifer sad. So, the only choice was to let her go, hoping she would understand how deeply he loved her. On their way there, neither Jennifer nor Maxwell spoke a word. They didn't even drive and simply walked hand in hand for an hour. They both wished the journey could be longer. But every journey had an end, and theirs had arrived. ...The divorce procedures were quickly completed. Jennifer stared at the divorce certificate and laughed bitterly. "I never thought the process wou

Jennifer straightened up. She believed Zion wouldn't lie to her."Dad, is it true?" Jennifer asked in confusion. "But Mr. Moore checked the driver's bank transactions and found no other transfers except the money you gave him. How did Rachel manage to bribe him?"Moreover, if Rachel didn't withdraw the lawsuit, the driver would be charged with attempted murder and go to jail. He was still young. And his entire life would be ruined! Would someone really risk their life for money?Zion shook his head. "I also can't figure out how she manipulated the driver. Although I hate that woman for destroying your family, I would never do something as outrageous as this!"Jennifer felt shivers down her spine at Zion's words. Did Rachel really risk her legs and child just to frame her father and force her to divorce Maxwell?If that were true, it only proved how horrible Rachel was!After some contemplation, Jennifer said calmly, "Dad, I believe you. I knew you wouldn't do such a thing. But I'

Maxwell's eyes lit up, and he went to open the door himself. However, he only saw Rachel in a wheelchair.Disappointment flashed in Maxwell's eyes and he glared at the secretary. "Who did you say was here?"The secretary was confused. But they still tried to flatter Rachel and said with a smile, "It's Mrs. Lance!"After all, Rachel's belly was already showing. She would become Mrs. Lance sooner or later! Wasn't the best option to flatter her?Of course, Rachel smiled from ear to ear after hearing this. It felt nice to be respected.However, Maxwell sneered at the secretary. "You're fired."The secretary was dumbfounded. "What… What did I do, Mr. Lance?""You lied!" Maxwell glared at her and yelled, "Leave! Now!"The secretary was devastated from being fired and ran away crying.Rachel was in an awkward situation as the caregiver wheeled her in.She asked the caregiver to leave, leaving only her and Maxwell.The man spoke lowly, "Your body hasn't fully recovered yet. You shou

Rachel believed that as long as Jennifer was out of the picture, Maxwell would return to her side. His resistance now was nothing more than lingering regrets from his time with Jennifer. Rachel sneered to herself. She had all the time in the world. One day, Maxwell surely would change his mind.…Days flew by. In the blink of an eye, more than a month went by. Jennifer had returned to the Yale residence and had not stepped inside Maxwell's place. It was as if Maxwell had never existed in her life. During the day, Jennifer would occupy herself with her busy internship. But every night, memories flooded over her."Jennifer Yale! What are you daydreaming about again?" Khloe scolded. "I told you to run a scan on the patient. Did you do it?"Jennifer calmly handed the report to her. "It's done."Khloe was unhappy she couldn't find any faults and snapped, "Several patients were uncomfortable during the night shift yesterday. You couldn't even handle such trivial matters and I had

At that moment, Jennifer panicked and ran off.Rachel also noticed Jennifer and immediately pretended to have a stomach ache. She moaned in pain. "Maxwell, my stomach is hurting again. Can you bring me to see the doctor?"Over the past month, she had been gentle and considerate, never bringing up the prospect of marriage. Her efforts seemed to have gained some of Maxwell's favor.Although Maxwell hadn’t given Rachel a title, he never missed a prenatal checkup and often made time to accompany her to buy prenatal books and baby supplies. Rachel didn’t want Maxwell to fall for Jennifer again. She couldn’t let all her efforts go to waste.…In the stairwell, Jennifer leaned against the wall with tears in her eyes. Just then, someone handed a blue handkerchief to her. Jennifer recognized the handkerchief. She looked up in surprise at Maxwell and instinctively asked, "How did you know I was here?""I made a guess." Maxwell smiled gently and inched the handkerchief closer to her.

Jennifer changed the subject. "By the way, where are the gloves you said you'd give me?" Quincy cheerfully took them out. "Here. Do you like them?" The gloves were made with red wool. There were even two white deer antlers sewn on it. It was adorable. Jennifer was touched. "They're beautiful. Thank you, Quincy."Quincy blushed at Jennifer's sincerity and waved her off. "You're too kind. They're not worth much, anyway." Jennifer put the gloves on. "How do I look?""You look great." Quincy smiled. "See, this is how it should be. We girls should treat ourselves better and not be affected by those who aren't worth it, right?" Jennifer knew what she meant.She looked at the warm gloves and recalled the messages Laura sent her every few days.Jennifer consoled herself. There were still many wonderful things to focus on. She shouldn't let the past tie her down.To cheer her up, Quincy suggested, "How about this? Let's take an afternoon nap and watch a movie tonight."Jennifer

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
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1194
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
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1191
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
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1189
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
