Jennifer halted in her tracks and turned around to scrutinize Rachel. She asked tauntingly, "You got someone to investigate me?"She even knew her real name.Rachel's face twisted and she spat, "So, you admit it. You're Jennifer, aren't you? What exactly are you planning after returning here under a different name? Are you trying to steal Maxwell from me? I've already moved in with Jasper. Our family is happy as it is! You don't stand a chance!"Jennifer looked bewildered. "What are you talking about? Trying to… steal who?"Rachel was taken aback, sensing something different about Jennifer. Although Jennifer had become more sharp and capable, it was as if she didn't recognize her.With a cold snort, Rachel demanded, "Are you saying you didn't come back to get revenge or steal Maxwell from me?""Are you out of your mind?" Jennifer laughed. "I don't know you at all. Why would I be competing with you for Max… Maxwell? I've told you, I won't treat your child. It doesn't matter what y
Maxwell was in disbelief. "She's already a specialist when she's only in her 20s?""Yes, it's laughable, isn't it?" Rachel snorted. "She's all bark and no bite. I was so furious that I brought Jasper back. No one who left her office had good things to say about her. She's not fit to treat Jasper."Despite her exaggeration, Rachel didn't believe an inexperienced rookie like Jennifer could treat Jasper. Even seasoned experts had deemed Jasper's condition hopeless, let alone someone like Jennifer.Thus, Rachel didn't hesitate to slander "Susan" to Maxwell.Maxwell didn't doubt her. After all, Rachel wouldn't have disregarded Jasper's life if the doctor was truly skilled.It seemed they lost their last strand of hope. Maxwell's disappointment was palpable.He sighed. "Since this one didn't work out, I'll keep searching for specialists. Jasper's condition must be treated. We can't give up."Rachel was secretly relieved. Thankfully, Maxwell didn't doubt her.Haven City was a large ci
Shaun sighed and shook his head. "He won't be waking up anytime soon."Rachel felt a wave of relief. "I came to ask you to investigate someone for me."She handed him a photo of Jennifer. "This person is named Jennifer. She's a cardiac surgeon who goes by the name Susan at Haven Hospital. Find out what she has been doing abroad all these years, who she's been with, and how she became a specialist."Shaun took the photo. "Consider it done, Ms. Walker. I'll take care of it.""Thank you." Rachel handed him a luxury watch. "Maxwell bought this watch at the auction. Jasper is too young to wear such a fine watch, so you should have it."Since Shaun was Hugo's most trusted subordinate and the others respected him, maintaining a good relationship with him was crucial.Shaun declined. "You're too kind, Ms. Walker. The boss saved my life. You and your son are the most important people to him. It's my duty to help you."Rachel didn't expect such unwavering loyalty. She hinted, "Shaun, I kn
Jennifer had given birth abroad!Rachel was terrified. She hoped Jennifer wouldn't return with those two children, remember her past, or meet Maxwell again. Otherwise, everything she had painstakingly built over the past five years would be in vain!Shaun was unaware of their past and suggested, "Ms. Walker, I heard Dr. Susan is very skilled. As soon as she returned, she developed a new medication that has shown excellent results for heart disease. Why don't you take your son to see her?"Rachel was distracted. "I see. I won't give up as long as there's a glimmer of hope."After Shaun left, Rachel was consumed by panic and contemplation. When she got home, she heard Martha's voice, "Mr. Jasper! What's wrong?"The frantic voice snapped Rachel out of her thoughts, and she immediately ran to the living room.Jasper was turning blue as he gasped for air on the floor.Rachel knew Jasper was having another attack and ran over to hold him. She yelled at Martha, "Quick! Call an ambulanc
No! Rachel absolutely couldn't let this happen. If Maxwell met Jennifer again, everything she had built over the past five years would be in vain! Rachel knew Maxwell still hadn't gotten over Jennifer even after five years.Rachel forced a smile. "That doctor is quite the character. Even the hospital director couldn't get her to cooperate last time, let alone us. I'll find her myself tomorrow. I'll get in line early to show my sincerity. Doctors probably appreciate sincere patients. I'm sure she won't take out her anger on Jasper."Maxwell thought for a moment and agreed. "Then you must go early tomorrow and see Dr. Susan. I'm busy with work and can't get away. If she refuses to treat Jasper, I'll talk to her myself."Rachel's heart raced. She felt she was toeing between life and death. She had to resolve this herself and ensure Susan administered the new medication to Jasper. Only then would Maxwell not think of meeting her. Fortunately, Jennifer had lost her memory. Otherwise,
Jennifer immediately called security. "Come in. There's a troublemaker causing a scene. Please escort her out."Soon, two security guards arrived and dragged Rachel out.Rachel was furious and shouted at Jennifer, "Just wait, Jennifer! I won't let you get away for disrespecting me!"After Rachel left, peace returned to the consultation room, and Jennifer continued to see patients as usual. Rachel didn't leave the hospital. She was determined to make Jennifer treat Jasper no matter what. If she couldn't persuade Jennifer, Maxwell would have to visit "Susan" personally, and that would not end well for Rachel.So, Rachel went to the hospital director. Maxwell knew the director, Preston, and the Lance family had donated several pieces of equipment to the hospital. Preston did not dare offend Maxwell.Listening to Rachel's complaints, Preston smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Lance. Dr. Susan is a skilled doctor, but she's also stubborn, and she doesn't care about status. How abo
Given her skills, the hospital was relying on Susan to bring them fame. With a heavy heart, Preston walked away, contemplating how to break the news to Rachel.As soon as he returned to his office, Rachel stood up and asked, "How did it go? Did she agree?"Jennifer might have been insufferably arrogant toward her, but Rachel believed she would not dare disrespect the director. Preston could only force a smile and said, "Please don't be anxious, Mrs. Lance. The truth is, Dr. Susan is a specialist we went to great lengths to hire, and she doesn't exactly take orders from me either."However, she has made a request. If you can meet it, she'll agree to treat your son."Rachel scoffed, raised her chin, and snapped, "Tell me what it is!"Preston cautiously explained, "Dr. Susan has requested that you do a good deed by covering the medical expenses for the pediatric cardiac surgery patients. Then, she wants you to apologize to her in my presence. What do you—"Before he could finish h
So, how could that be completely different from what Preston told Maxwell?Preston then said, "Didn't your wife tell you? I was worried her frustration might have led to a miscommunication, so I thought it'd be best to explain things to you directly.""Okay, I understand. Thank you, Dr. Gardner," Maxwell replied with a deep frown.After hanging up, he quickly made his way to the hospital where Jasper was admitted.When Rachel saw him, she maintained her composure and uttered with a smile, "Jasper is much better today than he was yesterday.""Step outside with me. I need to ask you something," Maxwell ordered icily.Rachel was momentarily stunned. Despite feeling uneasy, she still followed Maxwell out. As soon as they stepped out of the ward, Maxwell coldly asked, "Why did you lie today? Did Dr. Susan really agree to treat Jasper?"His words made Rachel's expression shift noticeably. With a strained smile, she asked, "D-Did you catch wind of something?""Rachel, I'm the one as
