Chapter 431

If anything, Maxwell should have sided with Simon and helped with his revenge. However, since it involved Jennifer, Maxwell ultimately chose to support the Yale family.Simon was probably still angry with him. How could Maxwell look to him for help?So, he put on a nonchalant front. "There's plenty of lawyers in Haven City. We don't have to stick with Simon all the time. Let's find someone else!"Jennifer sensed something was amiss and asked, "Did you have a fight with Mr. Moore? You'd always looked for him whenever you needed a lawyer. So, why are you hiring another lawyer now?"Maxwell hid his surprise and smiled. "Why are you such a worrywart? This is between us men. Don't worry, Lorraine and Zachary are no threat to me!"Despite his words, Jennifer knew Zachary and Jordan had taken control of Lance Corporation. And with them suing Maxwell, they had to be hell-bent on forcing him to a dead end.Jennifer pondered for a moment and found an excuse. "I've been on leave for a few d

Just then, a group of executives emerged noisily from inside the president's office.They mumbled discontentedly, "He can't do anything himself and made the wrong decision. Why is he taking it out on us?""That's true! Those two are a bunch of morons! They can't hold a candle to Mr. Maxwell!" said another.After the executives walked away, Jennifer finally knocked on the door.Jordan swung open the door angrily. But when he saw Jennifer, his expression softened. "What brings you here, Jennifer?"Jennifer stared at him fearfully, as if she was seeing someone with a split personality. After all, his furious yelling still echoed in her mind.Jordan urged, "Come in; what would you like to drink? I'll have the secretary prepare it.""No need for that." After entering, Jennifer didn't sit down but got straight to the point. "I'm here to ask you to spare Maxwell."Jordan's smile turned sinister. "Oh, I thought you came because you'd finally figured things out. But you're here to ask m

Simon's assistant immediately caught up to him. "We have a meeting with a client later, Mr. Moore.""Reschedule it," Simon ordered before driving to Maxwell's place.On the way, he had someone look into recent events at Lance Corporation. He learned that after Robert passed away, the company had been taken over by Jordan and Zachary. And they'd even taken Maxwell to court.He sped up, heading straight for Lance Manor.Martha knew Simon was friends with Maxwell and let him in directly. "Mr. Moore, Mr. Lance has been in a bad mood and stayed in his study all day. You should check on him."Simon nodded gravely. "I'll go see him."…In the study, Maxwell was surprised to see Simon. "What brings you here?"Simon looked him over. "You don't seem as bad off as Martha described! Why didn't you contact me about this? Were you planning to keep this from me forever?"Embarrassment flashed across Maxwell's face. "I didn't want to interfere with your plans for revenge against Yale Group."

Simon was getting impatient. "I agreed to be Lance Corporation's legal advisor because of you. I don't want to end up working for your useless brother!"Maxwell's gaze darkened. "I want to see how far they can go. This will also determine the consequences they'll face!"Simon had always admired Maxwell when it came to power plays. He knew how shrewd Maxwell was, having taken over Lance Corporation at just 22 years old.Simon shook his head. "I don't understand you. Aren't you worried this will affect the company's performance?"Maxwell snorted. "I can identify their spies and accomplices within Lance Corporation by doing this. This time, I plan to chase them out completely."Simon gave him a thumbs up. "Wow! But are you sure you don't need my help with the lawsuit?"Maxwell smiled. "Do you think I'd hesitate to ask you if I needed help?"He checked the time again. Jennifer still hadn't returned.Just then, his phone rang. It was a call from Michael.Michael had been demoted re

Chapter 435

Jennifer thought Maxwell misunderstood her relationship with Jordan and cried, "I can't believe you still think I'm having an affair with him at a time like this! I looked for him because I was hoping he would spare you!"She bawled her eyes out, feeling wronged, and angrily hit him with her uninjured hand.Maxwell's heart warmed as he let her vent.After a while, he took her hand and muttered, "I never thought that. I was just angry that you went to see him alone and almost got taken advantage of. I was even angrier that you chose to hurt yourself. Do you know how scared I was when I heard you had slit your wrist?"Jennifer broke into a smile. "Dummy. Why would I commit suicide over a scumbag? I was just scaring him."Maxwell paused, staring at the bandage on her wrist. "So, is this wound fake too? Would the doctors have bandaged it so securely if it were fake?"Jennifer chuckled. "Don't forget, I'm a doctor too. I know exactly where the arteries are. Why would I cut an artery?

Jennifer stared at Nathan in shock. "How did you know I was here, Dr. Lowe?"Nathan frowned at her injured wrist. "My colleague told me there was a girl who slit her wrist, and she looked like one of my students. I never thought it was you. Explain yourself, Jennifer."Nathan had always been lenient with her, but this was the first time he questioned her with such a stern voice. Jennifer lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry, Dr. Lowe. I had no choice, but I can't explain why."Nathan's frown deepened, and he grew angry. Jennifer had always kept her distance, never wanting to involve him in her life. He couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration. Looking at her bandaged wrist, he asked, "Is your husband incapable of protecting you?"Jennifer stared at Nathan in surprise. Nathan was shocked at himself too. How could he make such an unprofessional remark? Why was he sowing discord between a married couple?Without waiting for her response, Nathan quickly corrected himself.

"Here's your bread." Maxwell put the bread on the table and fed it to her patiently. "Remember to chew."Jennifer felt like the happiest woman alive. "Was it a long wait? Your ears are red from the cold."Maxwell chuckled. "I see you still have a heart. But I can wait as long as it takes if it means making you happy."Jennifer took a bite. It was just as delicious as she remembered. After a while, she bit her lip, looking like she had something to say. She mumbled, "Dr. Lowe was here earlier."Maxwell was surprised. He hadn't expected her to bring it up. Jennifer took out the ointment Nathan had given her and explained, "He came because he heard from the doctor that I was hurt. He brought me this scar removal ointment."Maxwell's anger faded because of her honesty. He glanced at the ointment. "I'll get you something better, okay?"Jennifer laughed. "This ointment is good enough. It's probably imported. But you really are petty."Maxwell feigned anger. "Say that again! Are you tr

Chapter 438

Maxwell was followed by Lance Corporation's executives, shareholders, and some bodyguards. It was a formidable group of people.The door to the president's office was kicked open by a bodyguard, catching Jordan completely off guard. He never expected Maxwell to barge in so boldly, and he lost his cool."Maxwell, what... What do you think you're doing? Where do you think you are?" Jordan stammered. "Don't forget, you had been dismissed during the shareholders' meeting. Now, I'm the president of Lance Corporation, and Dad is the chairman. If you don't wish to be thrown out, you'd best leave now!"Maxwell stood before him, unmoving. A murderous glint flickered in his eyes.Jordan panicked and shouted, "Quick! Call security! Get security up here!"Before he could finish, Maxwell signaled to his bodyguards. Jordan suddenly cried out in pain as the bodyguards dislocated his arms.Jordan bared his teeth at Maxwell. "How dare you do this to me? Just you wait, Maxwell! Security will be he

Chapter 439

"Mr. Lance, please come back and fix Lance Corporation! The three of you are from the same family, so why are your capabilities worlds apart?" The shareholders, who had dismissed Maxwell earlier, now realized how unreliable Zachary and Jordan were. They didn't have strategic minds and only knew how to paint rosy pictures.But this was their own decision. After they dismissed Maxwell, they started regretting their actions. Now that Maxwell had finally returned, the shareholders and executives took the opportunity to expose Zachary and Jordan's actions, hoping to bring Maxwell back.Zachary was furious to hear this and turned red with anger. He cursed them. "You traitors! You supported me when it was profitable, and now that you've had no use for me, you want to turn against me! Don't forget, this company belongs to the Lance family!"One of the shareholders sneered. "What have we used you for? Rather than that, it's more like you deceived and abused our trust! While this company be

Lorraine's heart sank, and she asked, "What do you mean by that? We lost the company too?"Zachary gritted his teeth. "Those silver foxes saw Maxwell return and clung to him like he was their savior! They've all betrayed me. No one supports me anymore. They're… going to dismiss me soon.""What?" Lorraine's eyes widened in disbelief. "How is that possible? How can a done deal just vanish?"Zachary laughed bitterly, "Now I understand why Maxwell hasn't been coming to the company or handling any affairs. He was waiting for Jordan and me to mess up. The more we failed at what he could easily accomplish, the more the shareholders would trust him. He had never lost control over Lance Corporation!"Lorraine felt a chill run down her spine. She thought they would gain control of Lance Corporation after Robert died, and everything else would fall into place. But in just one day, everything changed. Fate had burst her bubble and forced her back into reality.Lorraine shook her head, "Imposs
