You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 547
She would carry the child for 10 months! Who was Maxwell to take the child from her?Nathan noticed that Jennifer's expression was off and quickly supported her. "It's okay, Jennifer. Things haven't gotten that bad yet. I'll help you. Don't be afraid, okay?"Not long after, several bodyguards appeared at the entrance of the ward. It was the attentive nurse who first noticed those men, and only then did Jennifer realize that Maxwell had already arranged for people to watch her.He would know wherever she went.Jennifer stood at the entrance of the ward, looking at those bodyguards disguised as patient family members, feeling helpless. Even if she called the police, they had no evidence to arrest them since they hadn't committed any crimes.When Nathan came over that evening and learned of this, he reassured her, "Don't worry. I've been planning to ask the director to maintain normal order. Each patient should have only one or two family members as caregivers. The caregivers will ha

"Go ahead, Mr. Lowe. I can manage by myself." Jennifer smiled at him.Nathan gave her a worried look before leaving.Jennifer sat alone in the room, lost in thought, her mind filled with Nathan's proposal. The more she thought about it, the more nervous she felt. Yet there was a faint hint of anticipation welling up.Just then, the door opened, and Jennifer instinctively looked toward the door. It was Maxwell. In just a few days, stubble had grown on his chin, and he looked a bit haggard.Jennifer looked at him coldly.Maxwell walked over and said softly, "Jennifer, don't look at me like that, I... I got scared too. I'm afraid of losing you, afraid of never finding you again."Despite his heartfelt words, Jennifer was no longer as easily swayed as before. She only found it ironic. She smiled bitterly. "You have so many bodyguards watching over me. And you want to take the child away once I give birth. Yet you have the nerve to say these things to me?"Maxwell frowned. "That's be

Jennifer covered her mouth, looking at Rachel with terror. After a long while, she asked, "Why are you here?"Rachel showing up this late terrified Jennifer. Could it be that she had lost her mind and was here to kill her?Unexpectedly, Rachel just chuckled softly. "You don't need to be afraid. I'm here to tell you something. Aren't you curious about why your father suddenly committed suicide?"Jennifer was shocked and looked at her in disbelief.Rachel stepped closer, her expression becoming more twisted. "It was Maxwell! He started planning from the moment your family's business fell into a crisis. He was having a great time with me on the day your father died!"Jennifer shook her head and glared at her. "You're lying! That's impossible!"Even if there were conflicts between her and Maxwell, she wouldn't believe Maxwell would harm Zion. She still remembered all the good Maxwell had done for her. That was why she firmly believed Rachel was trying to sow discord and separate her

Rachel kept relaying the video, imprinting every word into Jennifer's mind.Jennifer covered her ears, feeling that Rachel was a demon reincarnated. She broke down. "No, stop playing it! Get out, leave!"Rachel smirked. "Jennifer, stop deceiving yourself. The truth is, Maxwell wants to have it all. He wants you, and he wants me. We are both important to him. So, he pushed your father to his death to avenge me. You can stay by his side if you accept this. After all, he still loves you, right?" With that, Rachel snorted and left Jennifer's hospital room.Jennifer felt like the colors faded from her world, that she had fallen into the abyss. She hugged herself close, biting down her pain. She choked, "Why? Why do you always lie to me?"Jennifer sat awake in the hospital room all night long.Perhaps Maxwell did love her. But just like Rachel said, Maxwell's heart wasn't hers alone. Not only did Maxwell love her, but he loved Rachel and her child too. And Maxwell had made it clear th

Maxwell gritted his teeth. "What about you? Hurry up and get searching!""Already on it." Michael's phone suddenly rang. But he froze after hearing what his men had to say and knew he was doomed.Maxwell noticed his expression and pressed, "What's wrong? Do you have news of Jennifer?"Michael stuttered in disbelief, "They said Mrs. Lance… she… She's undergoing an abortion."Maxwell widened his eyes and grabbed Michael by the collar. He roared, "What did you say? Repeat yourself!""Mrs. Lance is having an abortion." Michael swallowed hard. "My men said the surgery started half an hour ago…"Maxwell's mind went blank and he pushed Michael away before sprinting off. When the lift took too long, he ran downstairs instead.He ran past many red lights along the way, yet Haven City was always in a traffic jam. He only arrived at the hospital an hour later.When he arrived at the obstetrics and gynecology department, he pushed past everyone and barged into the operating room. The nurse

"You don't have to thank me." Lily was also part of Nathan's team and was always one for gossip. She grinned at Jennifer. "Wish the twins a happy birthday for me, Susan. Make sure to put them to bed early and spend more time with Dr. Lowe!"Jennifer playfully glared at her. "Careful, or Dr. Lowe might give you overtime!"Jennifer hurried home after that. In the car were the gifts she bought for her children last month as a reward for their good results in kindergarten. They would have to pass as birthday presents now.As soon as she opened the door, the aroma of steak and pizza filled the air. Her twins, a boy and a girl, rushed toward her."Mommy! What took you so long?" The girl jumped into her arms, hugging her neck and whining, "I missed you! Where are our gifts? Did you buy us gifts?"The little girl's chubby cheeks made her look like a doll. Meanwhile, the boy, dressed in a little black suit, scoffed. "You're so childish, Cassidy! Mommy is busy. She probably forgot to buy pr

The next day, Nathan took Jennifer to Mark's office.Mark had a nurse take Jennifer for a brain scan and some neurological tests while Nathan stayed in Mark's office.Mark said, "Nathan, Susan's frequent headaches suggest she might be starting to remember. Her amnesia, caused by the stress during her complicated childbirth, has the potential for recovery. I've had similar cases before."The more Mark spoke, the more terrified Nathan felt. He would rather Jennifer remember nothing.Jennifer had gone through a difficult childbirth and lost a lot of blood but successfully delivered the twins, Cassidy and Caleb, in the end. But when she woke up, she remembered nothing.Nathan even felt relieved. After all, why remember such painful memories? He told Jennifer she was an orphan with no relatives, and that her husband died in an accident.Since then, he had taken Jennifer to his lab abroad to focus on research.To his surprise, Jennifer had a great talent and interest in medicine. She

Nathan accompanied Jennifer out of the hospital. He wanted to cheer her up and suggested, "How about skipping the lab today? Let's take Cassidy and Caleb to the zoo. They've been asking to go for a week now.""Dr. Lowe." Jennifer interrupted him apologetically. "The kids are young and are always bothering you. I'll talk to them about this."Nathan sensed her rejection and decided to reveal his feelings. "Are you truly oblivious, or are you just pretending? After all these years, even if you were slow, you should have realized my feelings for you go beyond that of a teacher-student relationship."Jennifer avoided his gaze and murmured, "I want to focus on my research and complete the project. If this drug's clinical trial succeeds, many children with heart disease can be saved.""Don't come up with an excuse to brush me off," Nathan said, turning her to face him. He spoke firmly. "I believe work and relationships are not an either-or. Throughout history, many scientists have managed

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
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 1190
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
