Seeing this, Hailey believed Madison even more. She smiled slyly. "Mr. Lance, are you and Madison… close? Does Susan know?"Maxwell narrowed his eyes dangerously but ignored both Madison and Hailey. Speaking to them was beneath him. With that, he took his children and headed toward Jennifer's office.Cassidy and Caleb were charming and quickly won over the doctor, who started playing with them. He found a few needleless syringes and handed them to Cassidy to play pretend.Meanwhile, Maxwell entered Jennifer's office and asked, "I saw Madison when I brought the kids in. Why is she here? I just got rid of her, and now she has the nerve to show up again?"Jennifer sneered at the mention of her. "She's here to provoke me. She said she's here as an intern and even dared ask me to continue sponsoring her."Maxwell fumed and gritted his teeth. "It seems she hasn't learned her lesson! Don't worry, you won't see her tomorrow."Jennifer sighed. "She's made it clear to the department that I

But how could Jennifer let Madison off the hook that easily?So, Jennifer hummed. "Dr. Brooks, shouldn't you have given me a heads-up before taking my student under your wings? Don't you find taking over my student without warning disrespectful?"Hailey's smile didn't falter. "Aren't we discussing it now? Dr. Susan, you're not being petty over an intern, are you? Or… Is there some conflict between you and Madison? I get the feeling you don't like her. I honestly feel sorry for her watching her take on night shifts every day."Hailey wished she could expose Jennifer's family secrets to the department. She wanted everyone to know this was just Jennifer's façade. In reality, being married into a wealthy family meant not only enduring her mother-in-law but also tolerating her husband's infidelities.But things didn't go the way Hailey had expected.Jennifer didn't hold back despite having an audience. "I don't mind giving up an intern, Dr. Brooks. But remember the young scholars' gran

Because Madison and Lucy were from the same hometown, and Madison had once spoken favorably of Lucy to Camila when she was in her good graces, Lucy was very grateful to her.When Lucy saw Madison, she grew cautious and led Madison to a secluded area outside the yard. She whispered, "Why are you here? I'm done for if Martha sees you!"Madison scoffed. "Why are you afraid of that old hag? What can Martha possibly do with Madam Camila around? By the way, where is Madam Camila? I need to see her."Lucy sighed. "Don't even think about it. Madam Camila hadn't returned since she and Maxwell had a huge argument over you. We don't even know where Maxwell sent her.""What?" Madison was shocked. "But that's his mother! Did he disown her?"Lucy shook her head. "I don't know the details. But Maxwell kicked us out after you left that day. Only he and Madam Camila stayed. We overheard some arguing, but I couldn't make out exactly what was said."Madison's heart dropped. Maxwell had even distanc
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 914
When Maxwell heard this, he immediately grew furious and roared, "She dares come back? Who did she meet? Throw that person out immediately!"Although Martha was strict with the maids, she still sympathized with them. After all, this was just a job, and life wasn't easy for any of them. So she said, "Please don't be too hasty, Mr. Lance. Lucy is timid and wouldn't lie. I'm just worried Madison might be up to something, so I thought I should inform you."Jennifer didn't want to drag an innocent person into this. So, she said to Maxwell, "Martha is right. Even if Madison and Lucy are plotting something, firing Lucy might alert them. It's better to wait and see what they're up to."Maxwell was silent for a moment and instructed, "Martha, assign that maid to work in the garden starting tomorrow. Don't let her near the kitchen, and make sure she doesn't handle anything related to Jennifer. We need to stay vigilant whether she has other intentions or not.""Yes, Mr. Lance. I'll handle thi

Maxwell felt sorry for Jennifer. She had to save lives while also fending off backstabbers. He wanted to deal with Hailey and Madison himself. He would eliminate anyone who stood in Jennifer's way. But he knew that wasn't what Jennifer wanted.The next morning, Maxwell asked Michael to bring the surveillance camera that Jennifer had requested. Jennifer was helping their kids get dressed then.Michael discreetly handed the camera to Maxwell with a sly grin. He hadn't expected Maxwell to be this bold, going as far as to need such a device."Why are you smiling like that?" Maxwell was puzzled by Michael's expression.Michael chuckled and handed Maxwell a few adult toys. He winked at Maxwell. "These are freebies from the seller."Realization dawned on Maxwell. What did Michael think he was using the camera for? Maxwell kicked him and tossed the adult toys back. "Take these and get out!"Michael was baffled. Did he say something wrong? Or was Maxwell just shy? Either way, Michael knew

Since Preston was close with Jennifer, he didn't plan to reprimand her for being late. However, Hailey couldn't resist taking a jab.She sneered, "Dr. Susan, do you know how influential the patient for this afternoon's surgery is? How dare you be late for this meeting? Are you planning to have the department take the fall with you if anything goes wrong?"Jennifer calmly sat down and retorted, "Dr. Brooks, are you the lead surgeon for this afternoon's surgery? If you're not, what use is it if you show up on time for the meeting? Since I'm the lead surgeon, I get to have a say! I don't need you to take responsibility if anything goes wrong. I'll handle it myself."Hailey paled and huffed. "Dr. Susan, I advise you not to be so arrogant. You know what they say; you can never be too sure. Be careful you don't end up in a dead end!"Preston snapped, "Both of you, enough!"Jennifer and Hailey were fighting as if Preston wasn't in the room. Only after he raised his voice did they stop.

However, Jennifer didn't notice Madison was hiding around the corner, staring at her with a sinister look. She felt ignored by Jennifer's team. Since everyone was focused on the surgery for the afternoon, she quietly slipped out of the meeting room.…Half an hour later, Jennifer finished discussing the surgery with her team.She smiled. "Thank you all for your cooperation. Let's grab some lunch. Let's work together to ensure a smooth surgery."It was almost 1:00 pm by the time Jennifer returned to her office. She planned to have a quick lunch to boost her energy before the surgery.As soon as she entered her office, her phone started buzzing. Jennifer took out her phone and remembered she had connected it to the camera via Bluetooth earlier in the morning. The camera must have detected something unusual.Jennifer thought Hailey had sneaked into her office again. After grabbing her lunchbox, she checked the surveillance video, intending to watch while eating.What she saw next m

Madison decided to beat around the bush. "Aren't you interested in beating Jennifer?"Hailey had always thought of Jennifer as a thorn in her side. Since the opportunity arose, she wouldn't let it slip by. "Is it money you're after? Or something else?"Madison gave it a thought. "I want one million dollars. Also, a secure job offer in the future, how does that sound?"Hailey sucked in a deep breath. She hadn't expected Madison to be so bold. Madison continued, "If Jennifer is out of the way, you'll become the best cardiac surgeon here. Surely you'll have the authority to keep me in the department then, right?"Hailey desperately wanted to get rid of Jennifer. Now that the chance was presented, she wouldn't pass it up. So, she nodded. "Fine, tell me your plan. If it works, I can give you the money and help with your job too."With that, Madison approached Hailey and whispered, "I've already drugged Jennifer's food. It's a hallucinogen, and it'll take effect in about two hours. Co

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

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

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

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

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
