Hearing Maxwell's plan, Jennifer finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Maxwell.""You don't need to thank me." Maxwell stroked her cheek. "Don't worry, I'm here."With his reassurance, Jennifer finally grew at ease.The next day, the couple returned to their regular work and routine. In the morning, Maxwell first dropped off Cassidy and Caleb at school, then drove Jennifer to work."I'll pick you up after you finish work, and we'll visit Mrs. Lowe together." Maxwell reminded her, "Focus on your job, and don't let your mind wander, okay?"Jennifer smiled. It was nice to have someone who would stand by her side, especially when that person was someone she truly loved."Okay," she promised, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek. Her face flushed as she added, "You should work hard too."She quickly hopped out of the car. Maxwell's heart filled with joy.As Maxwell dropped her off a distance from the hospital, Jennifer had only walked a few steps before she heard cries for
Jennifer rolled her eyes at Hailey. "It's my choice. What's it to you?"She originally wanted to tell Hailey off but decided it was too rude, so she toned it down.Hailey snorted. "Susan, I know what you're trying to do. You're just showing off in front of everyone, trying to get them to look up to you. But don't forget, I'm still the head here!"Jennifer shrugged. "Do I need to show off? Isn't it common knowledge that I can perform surgeries that you cannot? Oh, and you're just the temporary head."She deliberately emphasized the word temporary, causing Hailey's face to turn red with anger.Jennifer then left to do her rounds.Hailey clenched her fists. She was determined to surpass Susan. What was so special about this woman? She had never been looked down upon like this before!…After a busy day, Jennifer finally wrapped up her work right as her shift ended. Maxwell's car was already parked at the hospital entrance, waiting for her.Jennifer quickly got in. "Let's visit Mr
Jennifer caught onto Maxwell's teasing and playfully glared at him. "I'm already yours, so isn't it up to you how things go?"Maxwell chuckled. "That's something I should be saying to you."…Hugo had been in a foul mood ever since returning to Haven City. The people he sent to capture Camila had failed, and that cunning woman escaped!Shaun hummed thoughtfully. "She fled hurriedly and didn't take anything with her. All the jewelry your father gave her was left behind. She's lived in luxury for so long and is nearly 60 now. She won't be able to survive out there for long."Hugo's gaze hardened. "Then keep searching! I want her found, dead or alive. Let's see how much longer she can hide."Shaun tried to ease his frustration and suggested, "How about calling over that girl, Natalie, from last time? She could keep you company."Hugo immediately recalled Natalie's stubborn yet stunning face, and his throat went dry. He mumbled, "That woman doesn't seem like the type to go clubbing.
Hugo became even more intrigued upon hearing about Natalie."She’s a teacher?" Hugo grinned. "No wonder she feels different from the women at Nimbus Lounge. So, she’s a teacher!"Given his status, he was usually surrounded by bar hostesses or gold diggers. Hugo had never dated a teacher before and wondered what that would be like.Seeing Hugo in a daze, Shaun reminded him, "What’s the next move, Mr. Shaw? Should we find Ms. Lowe?""Wait a bit. We can’t be too eager or we might scare her off!" Hugo thought for a moment. "Find out how much those students’ parents are paying her. Then have the manager contact her and offer her more! This woman must be short on money right now. Otherwise, why would a teacher work as a waitress? She must’ve been desperate. So, I’m sure she’ll come back if we offer her a higher salary."Shaun nodded in agreement. He hadn’t expected Hugo to not be entirely blinded by love.…Meanwhile, Jennifer was delighted to learn that Maxwell had arranged for sever
Jennifer wasn't as angry as the nurse. From the moment she saved Camila, she could tell the woman was in a very poor situation.In any case, Jennifer had already said the medical expenses would be deducted from her salary.She comforted Camila, "You should focus on recovering. Don't worry about the medical bills."Camila's eyes lit up. "Really? Thank you! The hospital is so kind!"The nurse rolled her eyes. "The hospital? You should be thanking Dr. Susan. She's the one who paid for your medical expenses out of her own pocket!"Camila looked at her in disbelief. Was there really someone so kind in this world?"Thank you, doctor!" Camila grasped Jennifer's hand. After all, she was now being hunted by Hugo's men, penniless and with no place to hide. When her throat had swelled, she thought she was going to die. She couldn't believe she had survived.Jennifer said gently, "It's alright, miss. Let me know if you feel any discomfort."She thought this was just a normal patient. Howev
Camila shook her head vigorously. "No! The enemy is in the shadows, and I'm in the open. The police might be able to protect me for a while, but they can't protect me forever! If those people find out that I called the police, they'll kill me!"Jennifer hesitated. Nothing seemed to be working. But she couldn't turn the hospital into a refuge for Camila. With no other option, Jennifer came up with a compromise. "How about this? I have a house near the hospital. If you don't mind, you can stay there for the time being. Once things calm down, you can think about what to do next."Camila hadn't expected Jennifer to be so kind. She nodded in gratitude. "Dr. Susan, I don't even know how to thank you! If it weren't for you, I might already be dead by now!""Alright, there's no need to say that. I'm just doing what I can," Jennifer said. "Why don't you let the nurse handle your discharge, and I'll take you to my house after I finish my shift?"Camila finally relaxed.At noon, Jennifer bro
Jennifer almost wanted to tell Camila right then and there that Maxwell was her husband and they had two adorable children. However, Maxwell didn't know anything about this yet. At the very least, she needed to discuss it with him first.So, Jennifer didn't reveal her identity. She made a meal for Camila and went to Lance Group to inform Maxwell about the matter.…Maxwell hadn't expected Jennifer to visit him during working hours and was overjoyed. He didn't even ask his secretary to make coffee and went to make it himself."Don't trouble yourself," Jennifer grabbed his hand. "I don't want any."Maxwell put down the items and wrapped his arm around her waist with a smile. "What's this? Is my wife here to check on me? Well, go ahead, see if I've been behaving."He leaned in to kiss her.Jennifer quickly pushed him away. "Stop messing around!"Maxwell looked at her thoughtfully. "Don't you have work? Why are you here? Is something wrong?""I..." Jennifer smiled. "I just missed
Maxwell was shocked. Was it really a coincidence? But his mother's name was indeed Camila Tate.No matter how strong Maxwell was, he couldn't help but shed a tear.Jennifer took his hand. "Let me take you to her, alright? Maxwell, she's in a dangerous situation, and I don't feel safe leaving her alone. What if her enemies find her?"With that, Maxwell followed Jennifer to see Camila.…After more than 20 years apart, Maxwell still recognized his mother. Although time had left its marks, Camila still looked the same as she did back then.He could still remember that stormy night when his mother left the Lance family in anger.Camila never expected that not only had Jennifer delivered the message, but she had also brought her son to her. She threw herself into Maxwell's arms and sobbed, "Maxwell! I've finally found you!"Maxwell's heart ached but couldn't bring himself to call her "Mom."He pushed Camila away and demanded, "Where have you been? Do you know how long I searched fo
