But none of this mattered anymore. Jennifer was just relieved she hadn't told Maxwell about her pregnancy. Otherwise, things would have only gotten more complicated.Seeing her silence, Maxwell questioned, "Have you gone mute? Why aren't you answering? What exactly did you two talk about that made you disregard Grandpa's safety?"Jennifer lowered her gaze. "He told me Rachel's child is still alive."Maxwell's expression changed instantly. He was no longer aggressive but rather flustered and at a loss.Jennifer smirked at him. "Are you satisfied now?"Maxwell felt a lump in his throat. He wanted to explain, but any explanation seemed pointless.Suddenly, cries erupted from the direction of the hospital ward, and Maxwell and Jennifer rushed to the ward.The doctor had already announced Grandpa Robert's time of death. Lorraine and Zachary wept as they covered Robert with a white sheet.Maxwell stood there stiffly, watching the white cloth slowly cover Robert's lifeless face. He c

Nathan ignored Maxwell. After paying his respects to Robert, he approached Jennifer."You're here, Dr. Lowe." Jennifer stood up and thanked him for coming over.Looking at the pale and noticeably thinner Jennifer, Nathan's heart ached. He gazed at her. "My condolences. I'm waiting for your return.""Thank you, Dr. Lowe," Jennifer replied weakly, her sorrow evident in her voiceNathan was surprised. After all, Robert was not Jennifer's biological grandfather, yet she was showing filial piety. His admiration for Jennifer seemed to grow even stronger.Just then, Maxwell approached them. He said coldly, "As you can see, Dr. Lowe, our family has a lot to handle right now. Many matters need our attention so I won't be keeping you. Michael, please see him out!"And so, Nathan was forcefully escorted out by Maxwell.Maxwell gave Jennifer a stern look and warned, "Don't forget your promise to Grandpa, Jennifer. You'd better behave yourself at his funeral."Jennifer felt wronged. She and

When dinner time came around, Jennifer went downstairs on schedule. She wasn't just responsible for herself now. There was now a baby she had to take care of. She didn't mind starving, but the baby couldn't.Martha noticed her increased appetite and poured her another bowl of soup. But when Jennifer saw the layer of fat on it, she felt nauseous again. She clutched her chest and ran to the trash can to dry heave.Martha was startled. "Is the food I made not to your liking, Mrs. Lance?"Jennifer rinsed her mouth. "It's not your fault, Martha."Martha suddenly thought of something and probed, "Are you pregnant, Mrs. Lance?"Jennifer's expression shifted and she mumbled irritably, "Don't talk nonsense. We've been divorced for so long. How could that be possible?"Martha had never seen this side of Jennifer and agreed awkwardly, "Yes, I must be getting old."Jennifer sighed. She glanced at the empty seat across her and asked, "How long has it been since he last ate?""Sigh. Mr. Lanc

Jennifer's heart tightened. She knew they couldn't reconcile. But she had promised Robert to protect Maxwell and not let anyone harm him. Even if she wanted to leave, she would wait until Maxwell had sorted out the situation with Lance Group and found his footing.Jennifer smiled. "Rachel's child is also your child. It's natural not to wish to kill your flesh and blood. And I will keep my promise and stay with you through this difficult time."Maxwell's heart warmed and he pulled her into his embrace. He mumbled, "Jennifer, I'm not sure if you know this, but you've grown soft."Jennifer used to be a rose with thorns. But now, she seemed to have shed them away. But Jennifer knew that wasn't the case, that she was left with no other choice.There were many things beyond her control, and she could only accept them reluctantly.After Maxwell ate, they went to bed early. After many busy days, lying together gave them a sense of security, allowing them to finally fall asleep.The next

Lorraine was on the couch with her legs crossed, looking as if she was there to settle a score. "Hmph! You're finally here! I thought you were too guilty to even face me!"Jennifer wanted to argue with her, but Maxwell held her hand tightly and stopped her. He calmly descended the stairs and gave the maid a weird smile. "What's this? Ms. Young has been here shouting all morning. Why haven't you served her a cup of tea?"Lorraine froze and Jennifer looked at Maxwell in disbelief.Had he gone mad? Usually, Maxwell wouldn't even bother with Lorraine. So, why was he being polite with her now?Lorraine retorted, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You must be plotting something! Did you poison the tea? Are you trying to kill me?"Maxwell chuckled. "Poison you in my own house? That would be foolish of me. But now that Grandpa is gone, I must take care of you on his behalf, Ms. Young."Lorraine narrowed her eyes. What was with Maxwell's change of attitude? Was he trying to curr

"You!" Lorraine rushed forward. "As your elder, I'll teach you some manners today!"However, Maxwell grabbed her wrist before her slap could land. She glared at him nervously. "What… What are you doing? Are you going to hit me?""I don't hit women. But I won't tolerate anyone being unruly in my home! No one is allowed to land their hands on my woman!" He pushed her away with a dark look.But Lorraine was not one to back down. Maxwell had always oppressed her since Robert protected him. Now that her husband and son controlled Lance Group, why should she endure Maxwell's disdain?"I advise you to be sensible and apologize to me on behalf of that brat, Maxwell! Also, you clearly tampered with Grandpa's will. There's no reason he wouldn't leave some assets to your father. Zachary is his only child. These assets should belong to him instead!" Lorraine sneered. "If you comply, you might still get some dividends from Lance Group in the future. But if we take this to court, I guarantee you

Maxwell nodded and asked, "So, are you only worrying because of Grandpa? Aren't you afraid that I might end up homeless and penniless one day?"Jennifer retorted angrily, "You had it coming! You've been moping around at home instead of going to the company! You're the one who gave up!"Seeing her upset, Maxwell decided to reveal some truth. "Have you ever heard of 'killing with kindness'? If they want to cause trouble, let them mess things up with Lance Group."Jennifer stared at him in a daze. Her confusion was utterly adorable.Maxwell suddenly turned to Martha. "Did you record everything like I asked you to?"Martha quickly handed him the camera. "Yes. The woman's tantrum and unreasonable behavior are all on tape!"Maxwell reviewed the footage with satisfaction.Jennifer finally understood. "So you were prepared for this? But the recording won't be enough to prove anything. They're accusing you of tampering with the will. Have you figured out how to clear yourself?""Why wou

Jennifer decided not to press further. She knew Maxwell must have tried his best to find his mother, but she might be deliberately hiding from him. Or perhaps she was no longer alive. Either scenario would shatter Maxwell's hopes and cause him great pain. After all, it would be even more heartbreaking if his mother intentionally avoided him for over 20 years.Maxwell read her mind and mumbled bitterly, "Maybe she's dead. Or maybe she started a new family. She might have even forgotten about me."Jennifer didn't know how to comfort him. Any words seemed pointless because she had not experienced what he had. All she could do was be there for him, letting him know she was by his side.After a while, Jennifer spoke gently, "I believe your mother still remembers you. Perhaps she was hurt too deeply by your father and didn't want to come back. Maybe she is thinking of you, watching over you from a place you can't see."Maxwell smiled and stroked her hair. "I'm not a child anymore. Are yo
