"How could there be another chance?" Agnes was exasperated. "Damn it! If it weren't for Jennifer, Zion wouldn't have done this! That mistress already hated Jennifer, and now she definitely won't let Zion off!"The maid replied, "Mr. Yale has always doted on Ms. Jennifer. Since she was wronged, it's not surprising he would rush to defend her in the heat of the moment. But he shouldn't have run that woman over no matter how angry he was. Now that the mistress has all the witnesses and evidence, she will surely seize this opportunity to make a big deal out of it!"The more Agnes listened, the more anxious she became. "I can't wait any longer. Call Jennifer and tell her to come back. How can she sleep soundly when her father is in jail?""No, Mrs. Yale Senior. Please calm down." The maid stopped her. "Mr. Lance instructed us not to tell Ms. Jennifer about this. He said he would handle it. Let's wait for him to deal with it! Besides, what can Ms. Jennifer do even if she found out about i

Michael was speechless and wasn't sure if Maxwell hoped the baby would survive or not.He cautiously replied, "The doctor said the baby is strong and no problems have arisen yet.""Got it." Maxwell's face remained expressionless as he waved Michael off.Just then, Simon arrived.Maxwell asked anxiously, "How is it? Any developments?""Zion's driver insists that Zion ordered him to do it. Moreover, Zion was in the car and had every motive to direct the driver," Simon said gravely. "The chances of winning this case are very slim. Unless you get Rachel to call it off, then we might be able to settle it privately."Maxwell sighed. "You know I can't ask her for that. Even if I did, she probably wouldn't agree."Simon smiled meaningfully and teased, "Of course, you can't. After all, it was your father-in-law who crippled her. It'll be hard to ask for forgiveness."Just then, Simon's phone rang. It was his assistant. "Mr. Moore, did you forget about the interview with Ms. Scott today?

Laura hesitated. Should she take a look at the file?She knew she shouldn't infringe on Simon's client's privacy. But curiosity took control of her.What if it was related to the Yale family?With this thought, Laura opened the file and quickly skimmed through it. After reading it, she realized the Yale family was in big trouble.She immediately headed out.The assistant immediately asked, "Ms. Scott, Mr. Moore should be back soon. Won't you wait for him?""Something came up, sorry. Let's reschedule the interview." With that, Laura left. But she ran into Simon at the entrance.Laura screamed as her ankle twisted, and she fell backward.Just when she thought she would hit the ground, a hand firmly wrapped around her waist.Laura froze, staring wide-eyed at the handsome face."You…" She hadn't expected to bump into him just as she was leaving.Laura held her breath and stared at Simon.Simon gazed at her flushed cheeks through the gold-rimmed glasses.Laura was dressed in a

Laura had run over, and she was still panting. "Did you know your dad was in trouble?""My dad?" Jennifer was confused. But her heart suddenly dropped. "What happened to my dad?"Laura said, "I saw a lawsuit about your dad in Simon's office. It seems he's charged with assault. Simon is now your dad's attorney and is handling the case."Jennifer's mind went blank. She grabbed Laura's hand and anxiously asked, "Why would my dad commit a crime? Who did he hurt?"Laura complained, "The file was too thick and I couldn't read it in detail. I don't know the specifics either. I only know that your dad is in trouble. You need to go home and find out for yourself. I have to get back to the studio, so I can't stay."Jennifer thanked her and rushed out. She hailed a taxi as soon as she left the hospital.With her urging, the driver sped her back to the Yale residence.A maid quickly ran to Agnes. "Mrs. Yale Senior, Ms. Jennifer is back!""Does that mean there's a breakthrough in Zion's cas

If Jennifer knew the full story, she would be overwhelmed with guilt. So, Maxwell downplayed the incident, making it seem like an accident.However, Jennifer was filled with doubts. "That doesn't make sense. Why did Laura say my dad was charged with assault? Even if he hit someone, it should have been labeled an accident.""The other party probably charged him because they wanted compensation." Maxwell reassured her, "Don't worry. Simon is experienced with these sorts of cases. He will find the evidence soon if there is a problem."Jennifer's eyes watered, and she choked, "How is the victim doing now? Will my dad be released soon if their injuries aren't severe? Take me to see them. I'll apologize. I'll do anything if they let my dad go."Maxwell's expression shifted. "The victim is seriously injured and doesn't want to see us. They didn't even provide their address.""What should we do? I can't see my dad, and I can't see the victim. How can I help him?" Jennifer felt useless. Zi

"I know," Maxwell said gently. "But the child is safe, and that's something to be thankful for, isn't it?"Rachel cried in despair. "I always thought my legs would recover. If I hadn't overheard those two nurses, I wouldn't have known my legs were beyond repair! I feel bad for the child! They will grow up with a crippled mother!""Don't talk about yourself like that. No matter what, you've given this child a life." Maxwell reassured her. "Listen to me, I will find the best specialists to treat you. Your legs will be fine."Rachel shook her head. "You don't need to comfort me! I know the chances of recovery are slim. But I won't let the person who did this to me get away with it. Never!"Seeing her determination, Maxwell found himself unable to voice his thoughts. Rachel looked at him sorrowfully and asked, "You wouldn't want me to forgive Jennifer's father, would you?"Maxwell hesitated. "If we can settle this privately, I will make sure the Yale family compensates you.""Compens

Rachel's face was streaked with tears. "Maxwell, I've lost everything, and my legs are crippled. If you abandon me and stay with the daughter of the one responsible for my misery, what's the point of living?"Maxwell lowered his gaze. "Jennifer is not her father. We can't mix the two. I believe Jennifer would never do something like this. If she knew her father caused your accident, she would feel guilty and join me in compensating you."Maxwell wanted to stay and comfort Rachel, but seeing that she either kept trying to win him back or slandered Jennifer, he felt he didn't need to stay longer. "You should rest. I'll be going now. Call me if you need anything."...Not long after Maxwell left, Rachel heard footsteps outside her hospital ward. In the quiet of the night, the sound was particularly jarring. Rachel thought Maxwell had returned and felt excited. But to her surprise, the man who entered was Hugo as if he had come from the depths of hell."It's you?" Rachel tensed up

"No, please, I beg you!" Rachel grabbed Hugo's hand and pleaded, "Hugo, for the sake of the time we've been together, don't drive me to the edge. Besides, I'm carrying your child!"Hugo sneered, "But it seems you only have eyes for Maxwell. Do you even care about our child?""I was wrong. I will never do anything to harm our child again." Rachel admitted her mistake. "I know I can't hide anything from you. Please, give me another chance."Hugo pondered for a moment before threatening, "Remember this, I am irreconcilable with Maxwell. I will not tolerate my woman having feelings for him! The only reason I'm letting you stay with him is because you're a pawn for me. If I find out you're playing tricks again, I will kill you!"...Meanwhile, Maxwell had returned home. Jennifer was sitting in the courtyard, lost in thought. Her mind was occupied with Zion's situation. Occasionally, thoughts of Rachel and Maxwell also flashed through her mind. Hearing the car's engine, she immediatel

"Oh my! Mrs. Lance, why are you here?" Martha exclaimed. "It's still early. You should go back to sleep. Otherwise, how will you have the energy for your internship?"Jennifer forced a smile. "I couldn't sleep. Let me help you with breakfast.""This..." Martha firmly refused to let Jennifer help. "Mr. Lance will surely be upset if he finds out. You should rest, Mrs. Lance."Jennifer told Martha about Zion's situation. She lowered her gaze and muttered softly, "I can't do anything else. So, this is the only way I can repay him."Martha sighed, feeling heartbroken for Jennifer who was so considerate despite her age. Jennifer did all this merely to please Maxwell. So, Martha reluctantly allowed Jennifer to help her prepare breakfast.Outside, the sun gradually rose, and breakfast was almost ready. Just then, Maxwell suddenly walked into the kitchen. Seeing Jennifer in an apron, he asked, "What are you doing here? I was wondering why I couldn't find you this morning.""I wanted to pr

"You can go now," Maxwell dismissed Martha and looked upstairs, his expression filled with unresolved frustration.Just then, Jennifer came down the stairs fully dressed. She thought Maxwell was waiting to drive her to work as usual. At the entrance, she took his shoes and placed them by his feet, seemingly waiting for him to change into them.Seeing this, Maxwell suddenly felt a surge of anger. He pulled Jennifer aside and put on his shoes himself. "I married you to be my wife, not a maid!" Then, he stormed out of the house, leaving her standing there, stunned.He had been so happy this morning. Why had he suddenly become so harsh with her? What had she said or done to upset him?Jennifer quietly went to the hospital by herself. After a busy morning, she hesitated before finally gathering the courage to send Maxwell a message: "What did I do to upset you? Please tell me, and I'll change."She had thought long and hard before sending that short message. But it was like a stone
