Years of experience made Rachel realize that Jasper's illness had relapsed. This time, however, it seemed worse than ever. Jasper struggled to breathe. "Mom, I... I feel terrible. Am I... am I going to die?""No, don't say that!" Rachel had tears streaming down her face. She yelled at Martha, "Call Dr. Watkins immediately! Get him over here, now!"Martha quickly called both Clement and Maxwell. Since Clement's lab was nearby, he arrived within 20 minutes. Upon arrival, he administered oxygen to Jasper, but it didn't help.In her desperation, Rachel shouted at him, "What's the point of giving him oxygen? Give him some medicine!"Clement's face fell. "We've run out of medicine. I... I don't have any solutions right now. You need to find a way to get Susan's medicine again. Otherwise, Jasper's life would be at risk."Rachel was furious. "What do you mean by that? Are you planning to abandon us? I provided you with Susan's medicine for your research, and you've produced nothing! You'r
Maxwell was already preparing to take Jasper to the hospital, so Rachel had no choice but to follow him. Once in the car, she returned the business card to Maxwell. "Jennifer hates me and definitely won't help me. You should make the call instead." She wasn't going to ask Jennifer for anything no matter what.Maxwell had no choice but to call Jennifer and explain Jasper's condition. Since Maxwell had saved her life before, Jennifer agreed to help.The car sped down to the hospital. Maxwell rushed to Jennifer's department with Jasper in his arms when they arrived.Jennifer had already changed into her medical attire and prepared for the emergency room. When Jasper arrived, she immediately had the nurses wheel him into the emergency room.Rachel tried to follow them in but was stopped by Jennifer. "Non-medical personnel are not allowed in the emergency room. Please cooperate."With that, Jennifer closed the door. But Rachel held it open. "Why won't you let me in? How can I trust y
Then Maxwell and Jennifer would be meeting openly. At this thought, Rachel suddenly piped up, "What does signing that consent form mean? If something happens to Jasper like that other child, will you leave all the responsibility on us?"Jennifer gazed at her sharply. "That incident has already been addressed on the hospital's official website. I suggest you check it out. You're free to take your child elsewhere if you don't trust me. I won't stop you."Rachel was conflicted. If they left, there might not be anyone else who could save Jasper. But if they stayed, would she watch as Jennifer and Maxwell rekindled their feelings?Suddenly, Rachel thought of an idea and said, "The hospital is full of bacteria and viruses. Jasper can't handle that. How about this? You can visit our place to treat Jasper or sell us the medicine, and we'll find our own doctor."Listening to her absurd demands, Jennifer burst out laughing. "Mrs. Lance, have you not realized the situation here? You're asking
Jasper blinked in surprise. "Will I have the chance to go to school?"Jennifer nodded. "As long as you go through with my treatment, you'll have the opportunity to be like other kids."Just then, Rachel rushed into the ward and pushed Jennifer aside. Jennifer immediately steadied herself by grabbing the wall, preventing herself from falling.She looked at Rachel in disbelief. "What are you doing?"Rachel glared at her. "What were you saying to my son?"When she entered the ward, she immediately noticed Jasper laughing with Jennifer. Was she planning to manipulate Jasper too?Jennifer yelled, "Are you paranoid or something?""You're the one who's paranoid!" Rachel snapped back angrily. "Why are you getting so close to my son? What exactly were you telling him?"Jasper intervened, "Mom, why are you so angry? The doctor is very nice. She just came to check on me and told me I'll get better. She also said she'll make it so I can go to school like other kids."Rachel held back her
Rachel didn't want to show her ugly side to her son, so she suppressed her anger again and forced a small smile. "It's not your fault, it's mine. But I have no choice. Do you think that lady wants to save you? In truth, she wants to steal your father.""Really?" Jasper looked at Rachel in confusion and shook his head. "The doctor doesn't seem like that kind of person. She's really kind."Rachel snorted. "That's all an act. Otherwise, why would she use you to get close to your father? I have always been good to you. Would I lie to you? Your father got hurt because he was protecting her! He almost lost his life."Jasper asked in disbelief, "Why would Dad protect her? Do they... know each other?""That's because that woman saw that your father is wealthy and powerful, so she wants to take him away. I don't know what kind of spell she cast on him, but he almost lost his life for her." Rachel pulled Jasper into her arms. "Jasper, you're my precious child. You must help me, okay?"Jaspe
Maxwell remained silent for a moment before smiling. "Silly boy, your mom and I both love you very much. We won't leave you."Jasper threw himself into Maxwell's arms happily. He knew it! His father would never abandon him. But Rachel's expression turned unpleasant. Maxwell was very skilled at choosing his words. He only said they wouldn't leave Jasper, but he had never made any promises to her. So, who would repay her for the five years she had spent with him, not to mention all the years of her youth?After Maxwell put Jasper to sleep, he turned his attention to Rachel. He observed Rachel's gentle front. "Did you say something to Jasper? Why did he ask me that?"Rachel maintained her composure. "I didn't say anything to him. I'm also confused. I don't know what got into him today to ask such strange questions."Maxwell gave her a skeptical look. "You should go home. I'll stay here with Jasper tonight."Rachel scanned the room disdainfully. "There isn't even a proper bed here.
Cassidy whined, "I want Mommy to hold me while I sleep, and I want Mommy to take us to school in the morning."Caleb pushed Cassidy aside and moved closer to the camera. "Mommy, both Cassidy and I are Chuelesians, which means our dad must be Chuelesian too. Have you seen anyone over there who looks like our dad?"Jennifer was taken aback. She once told them that their father had gone to another world. But Caleb was stubborn, convinced that his father was still alive.However, Caleb's words triggered something in her mind. She suddenly realized that Caleb bore some resemblance to Maxwell. Especially when he frowned. The thoughtful expression was almost identical as if made from the same mold.The thought made her heart sink. But she quickly brushed it away. She was being ridiculous. Maxwell Lance? How could that be? Besides, Nathan had told her that her husband was dead. Nathan wouldn't lie to her.Seeing that Jennifer was lost in thought, Caleb carefully asked, "Mommy, what's wron
Although Jessica agreed to start dating Nathan, she hadn't thought about their future. When Cassidy brought up marriage earlier, the idea felt so distant to her, and she felt a little nervous.She took out the medication Mark prescribed her and took two pills before going to bed. It had been a long time since she had dreamt. But she found herself having strange dreams that night.In her dream, she saw Maxwell. She dreamed of a beautiful wedding, and the man beside her was none other than Maxwell. Then, Rachel appeared along with Jasper, standing menacingly between them. This absurd scene replayed throughout the night.As dawn broke, Jennifer woke up in shock. The memory of last night's dream made her face flushed bright red. Why would she dream of marrying Maxwell? Was she just stressed out by Cassidy and Caleb's talk?Jennifer muttered to herself, "Susan, you absolutely should not dream of marrying that man!"Otherwise, she would look down at herself. She was beautiful and succes
