The student pursed their lips and replied, "When I passed by Dr. Lowe's office earlier, I overheard the executives inside saying they wanted to kick Jennifer out of the program."This is a big deal. Didn't they send her home after suspending her internship?"Quincy corrected them with displeasure. "She wasn't 'sent home'! Jennifer was wrongly accused! Dr. Lowe told her to take a two-day break to stay low, that's all.""Come on! Don't be naive. If Dr. Lowe hadn't said that, would Jennifer have gone home?" The classmate enjoyed the drama. They clicked their tongue and commented, "I used to think Jennifer was reliable. I never expected her to mess this up so badly!"In Quincy's mind, there were only two words. "It's over!"It seemed like Jennifer would not be let off easily this time. She would have to take the blame for Khloe's actions. …Meanwhile, everyone in Nathan's office wore grave expressions.The hospital director and dean held Nathan in high regard. However, with the

Moreover, this was Nathan, a man who understood the ways of life yet remained uncorrupted by its cynicism. However, his words had mercilessly revealed the ugly truths hidden beneath the facade of these higher-ups."You!" The director was livid, his face turned ashen as he said, "I won't discuss this with you anymore. The intern has made such a grave mistake that even God can't help her!"And you, how could you protect an intern who had caused trouble instead of standing up for your subordinate? It's absurd!"I'll discuss the solution with the dean now. All you need to do is inform her to return to the school and face whatever punishment is due."That said, the director and the dean left Nathan's office, fury written all over their faces. Nathan slammed his fist on the desk in frustration. Why didn't Jennifer answer the phone?Khloe, on the other hand, remained unscathed. When she saw the director storming off, she immediately understood what was happening. It was likely that

"I'm sorry, but Mr. Zion and Mrs. Yale Senior aren't home, either." The housekeeper then suggested, "Sir, why don't you come in and wait? But I can't say for sure when they'll be back."Yet, Nathan had no time to wait. He needed to find Jennifer as soon as possible. Otherwise, he could not put his mind at ease.…That evening, after Quincy finished work, she immediately went to find Jennifer and told the latter everything she found out. Jennifer was on the brink of despair. Yet, she refused to believe it."Dr. Lowe said he would clear my name," she uttered softly.Quincy furrowed her brows and replied, "When I went there, the director was in Dr. Lowe's office. Many overheard the director say they were going to punish you severely. "But no one heard Dr. Lowe defend you! Jennifer, it's likely that he's sacrificing you for his career. We need to think of another to save you!"Jennifer insisted, "No, Dr. Lowe isn't like that."She believed her judgment of people couldn't be th

Quincy was seething with anger when she brought that up. Jennifer urged Quincy to hurry back to her shift. Otherwise, she might be late. Yet, the former was unwilling to head upstairs. She feared that Robert would notice something amiss and worry about her.And so, Jennifer sat alone in the garden behind the hospital. As she watched the sky gradually darken, she felt a chilling cold settling into her core.Suddenly, a pair of leather shoes appeared before her.Jennifer lifted her head abruptly. To her surprise, it was Nathan. Her gaze was filled with despair and anguish, and she remained silent. Nathan had given up on her. He even sacrificed her, so what else could she say?"This is where you've been hiding, huh?" Nathan remarked. He stared at Jennifer intently. It was as if he was waiting for her to explain. Nathan would not have come across her if he hadn't needed to pass through this garden on his way to the car park. In fact, he did not even know where to begin lo

"I—" Jennifer began. But she immediately figured out that it had to be Maxwell's doing, and her anger flared up."So, are you still blaming me for not informing you? The director and others think you're guilty because you didn't show up today. Your actions only confirmed their suspicions about you!" Nathan responded with an icy tone.Realizing she had misunderstood him, Jennifer hurriedly apologized, "Dr. Lowe, I'm sorry. I-I didn't know you did so much for me. It's my fault. I've let you down."Her voice choked with emotions as she spoke. She was on the verge of crying. Nathan's heart softened at that sight, and most of his anger dissipated. He looked at Jennifer with a frown, asking, "You just said you don't want to be a doctor anymore. Did you mean it?"Jennifer fell silent. Thoughts of the pressure and unfair treatment she had endured during her internship crossed her mind. She was losing hope in the profession. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably as if floodga

Maxwell chuckled coldly while nodding. "Go ahead and scream. I'd like to see if you have the heart to drive Grandpa to his grave!"Jennifer was cornered by him. Overwhelmed with frustration, she broke down in tears and voiced out her grievances, "Do you know that because of you I have to drop out? "I've been expelled by the hospital and the school! How can you treat me like this?"Maxwell was stunned upon learning that. "Explain yourself. What exactly happened? Weren't you still working yesterday?" he demanded.Jennifer shook him off furiously, her eyes red. "I don't need to explain anything to you. You can't help me, either. But Maxwell, you're too much. You're also a shallow person."Do you only care about scandals and affairs? Dr. Lowe is a great man. He's far better than you! At least, he isn't domineering and selfish. He actually cares about others!"Having said her piece, she turned and ran, leaving Maxwell with nothing but her retreating figure. A surge of anger welle

Otherwise, Nathan would completely take over Jennifer's heart, leaving Maxwell with no place in it.After finishing the cigarette, Maxwell trudged back to Robert's ward, feeling depressed.But to his surprise, Jennifer had already returned. Her gentle smile lingered as she chatted with Robert. It was as if nothing had happened.Maxwell did not know what she said which made Robert burst into laughter. At that sight, he felt even more guilty. Jennifer was devastated, yet she managed to conceal her emotions, ensuring Robert remained unaware of her distress.However, Maxwell knew her heart had to be aching at that moment. He stood at the doorway, observing the smiling woman in silence. He could not bear to disrupt the beautiful moment. Eventually, it was Robert who noticed Maxwell standing there.The former was astute. He yawned before saying, "Jennifer, I'm tired. I'd like to rest now. You and Maxwell should go to sleep too. "Oh, by the way, I had someone change to a bigger

"You! Why did you come back?" Khloe glared at Jennifer and asked, "You've made such a grave mistake, and you still have the nerve to return, huh? Didn't the school inform you about your punishment?"Right then, Nathan appeared. "I asked her to come back," he remarked nonchalantly.His tone seemed to tell everyone that Jennifer's presence there was completely normal and nothing to be surprised about.Khloe could not be bothered about hierarchy and reminded him, "Dr. Lowe, you must have forgotten that the school's and hospital's higher-ups have already decided on Jennifer's punishment."She no longer has the right to appear in our department, let alone intern here!"Nathan's gaze turned somewhat icy. "I'm on my way to the higher-ups' office. This is something they should worry about. "Dr. Carter, you should be concerned with your patients and make sure this never happens again. You won't always have someone to take the fall for you."Nathan was known for his high emotional intell

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

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
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
