Maxwell had invested all his feelings, only to receive Jennifer's betrayal in return. After their eyes met for a moment, they quickly looked away.Jennifer couldn't help but panic. But she forced herself to remain calm and addressed him as she would any other patient. "Please sit. Have you been feeling unwell lately?"Seeing her cold expression, Maxwell was reminded of how she had deceived and betrayed him.He slowly walked over and sat down opposite her."Dr. Susan, you're mentally strong!" Maxwell sneered sarcastically. "They say a doctor's mission is to cure and save people. But you seem to know best how to destroy a person's heart."Listening to his sarcastic remarks, Jennifer's gaze remained firm. "Are you going to have the examination? If not, then let the next person come in."Just then, a nurse entered with a file. "Dr. Susan, this is your resignation paperwork. Dr. Gardner asked you to sign it.""Alright." Jennifer quickly glanced at the document and signed her name.A
Did Maxwell discover something?Jennifer remained silent, her breathing quickened from the nervousness.Maxwell chuckled and shook his head. "I must be going crazy. That was just Jasper's classmate. Maybe the child doesn't look like either of us. Perhaps I just wish our child didn't die. But we can't change the past…"Jennifer breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart still ached. For some reason, she didn't like seeing Maxwell this defeated.She quickly changed the topic. "Your heart and lungs are fine. I heard you're getting married soon. Congratulations."Her words pulled them back into reality. Maxwell forced a smile. "Thank you."At that moment, he realized that this marriage was merely a form of revenge for himself. Jennifer had long since moved on from him. With how much she hated him, why would she care who he married?Thus, Maxwell left the examination room. He walked slowly and soon disappeared from sight.It wasn't until she felt a burning sensation that Jennifer real
Laura hurriedly went back to work.Jennifer sighed helplessly and decided not to go to the coffee shop. Instead, she parked her car outside the studio and waited in the car.Just then, her phone rang. It was the hacker Nathan had helped her find previously. "Ms. Susan, the surveillance footage from Nimbus Lounge on August 12th, five years ago, has been retrieved. I've sent it to your email. Please check it."Jennifer hadn't expected the hacker to be so efficient. She had almost forgotten about it with how busy she had been lately."Okay, thank you. I'll take a look." Jennifer thanked him and immediately opened her email after hanging up.The footage was split into many videos, and she opened them, browsing through each one.As she watched, her eyes gradually widened. She saw two women stealthily bringing her unconscious form into Nimbus Lounge. These were likely her stepmother and stepsister. Then, Maxwell entered the room.Soon after, she stumbled out of the room, and the next
Jennifer had a moment where she felt the same impulse as Laura, but she quickly decided that it was too hasty.Moreover, if she confronted Maxwell now, he might still try to reconcile with her even if he realized the true nature of Rachel. She didn't want to be trapped by Maxwell again, nor did she want him to discover Caleb and Cassidy's existence.After much contemplation, Jennifer said, "I'll tell him the truth after I leave Haven City. By then, he won't be able to find me."Laura suddenly thought of something and smiled. "Isn't he getting married soon? Why not reveal the truth at his wedding? Let's see if he'll go through with the wedding!"Just thinking about that made Laura feel a great sense of satisfaction!Seeing Jennifer's dejected look, Laura wanted to cheer her up and suggested, "I used to go clubbing when I was feeling down. I'd feel much better after sweating it out. How about we go clubbing now?""Clubbing?" Jennifer had gone to clubs before, but not often.Laura,
Michel glanced at him. "She's mine. You'd better stay out of it."Michel saw Laura coming down from the dance floor and pushed the model aside before following the slender figure.When Laura came out of the restroom, she was surprised to see Michel standing by the door. She froze before her gaze turned cold. "Move!""Laura, it's not the time to be stubborn," Michel blocked her way and smirked. "You must be here to earn some quick cash, right? Here's the deal. Since we have a past, I'll give you 100 thousand dollars if you spend the night with me. How about that? Pretty generous, right?"Laura slapped Michel. She glared at him and said scornfully, "You disgust me. This is the restroom. You should look at yourself in the mirror. I'm afraid even you would be disgusted by yourself!"With that, she turned on her heel and walked away. However, Michel gripped her arm.Michel was enraged by the slap and spat, "Hmph, you're still putting on airs after five years? You're just a whore who's
Jennifer and Laura were both locked up at the police station.The bar had ties to the Jenson family. So, when Michel got into trouble, the bar wasted no time and detained Jennifer and Laura.Jennifer trembled with fear. "Laura, did I… Did I just kill someone? I hit him in the back of the head. Will he die?"Laura clutched her aching abdomen and tried to reassure her, "Don't worry, he was the one trying to take advantage of me. We were just defending ourselves. Besides, even if something did happen to him, you can put all the blame on me."After all, Simon wouldn't just ignore her. He still wanted to have his way with her and would find a way to get her out.Just then, the sound of high heels clicking against the floor echoed. A woman's voice followed, "Thank you, officer. I'll be swift."Laura immediately recognized the voice. She sneered, "The Jenson family is quick to act, aren't they?"Patricia appeared before them. Her eyes widened when she saw Jennifer. She had heard that J
With that, Patricia spun around and stormed off, her heels clicking with every step.In an instant, Laura's body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground. It was as if every ounce of energy had been drained from her. Although Jennifer couldn't recall who Patricia was, she gathered enough from their conversation to grasp what had transpired. Her concern for Laura grew as it was clear that Patricia wasn't someone to be taken lightly.…Meanwhile, at Valor Law Firm, Simon had just wrapped up a long day when his phone rang. A flicker of annoyance crossed his face when he saw the caller ID, but he answered anyway."Simon, do you have a moment?" Hailey's coquettish voice came through the line. "I've come down with a fever, and my parents are on a trip. I'm all alone here. What should I do?"Simon frowned and retorted, "You're a doctor, aren't you? If you've got a fever, take some medicine. It's not rocket science." Hailey felt a surge of anger at his indifferent tone. Despite havi
Rachel hadn't expected Shaun to call her at this hour. Could something have happened to Hugo? Part of her wished he was dead.She picked up the phone, feigning concern as she asked, "Shaun, did something happen to Hugo?""No," Shaun replied. He hesitated before continuing, "Ms. Walker, Nimbus Lounge's system was hacked a couple of days ago. They accessed surveillance footage from August 12th, five years ago. "We've been looking into it for two days but haven't found anything. I thought you should be informed. Does that date have any special significance?"After all, Shaun was unaware that Rachel had impersonated Jennifer and spent the night with Maxwell five years ago. He simply found the situation suspicious and, with no one else to discuss it with, decided to inform Rachel.Rachel was stunned by the news. August 12th, five years ago? That was the very day! She was sure that this wasn't a coincidence. Jennifer must be behind this. Exasperated, she yelled, "Why didn't you let
