All Chapters of You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance: Chapter 981 - Chapter 990

Jennifer was almost ready to curse in anger. She fumed. "Does he think being a lawyer makes him untouchable? We should file charges against him and make sure he pays for what he's done!"Laura smiled bitterly. "I used to think justice would prevail. That if we followed the law, we'd have nothing to fear. But since I got involved with Simon, I've realized how naive I was. He can have people beat my dad black and blue in prison, yet my dad will grit his teeth and refuse to report them, saying he fell on his own. Simon has a way of making you feel pain without leaving any trace of proof against him."Jennifer felt unsettled and wanted to help Laura. Laura reassured her, "Don't worry, I've started looking for other lawyers. I've been researching attorneys outside the area who might be able to take on Simon. I found several highly regarded lawyers in Regalton, but their fees are steep. Still, if it means freeing my dad and getting rid of Simon, I'll pay whatever it takes."Jennifer nodde

When Jennifer arrived home, the house was a mess. From a distance, she could hear the noisy chatter.Entering the living room, she saw Camila was hosting a tea party again.As soon as they spotted Jennifer, the group immediately turned on her."Jennifer, you've gone too far! How could you teach your child to harm your mother-in-law?""Exactly! And you call yourself a doctor? Have you no conscience? Your mother-in-law is already 60 years old. How could she handle being shoved like that? It's a miracle she's even standing here today! She could've been fatally injured!""A daughter-in-law like you has no place here! If our daughters-in-law were all as terrible as you, we'd be driven to an early grave!"Jennifer felt a headache building from the noise. She looked at them coldly. "What do you want?"Her gaze was icy, yet unflinching as she looked them over.For a moment, these ladies, who relied on their husbands and had little power of their own, exchanged uneasy glances. They only

Jennifer smiled at Maxwell. "I've already prepared your bath. You should head in. Was today... exhausting?"Maxwell looked at her, puzzled and slightly surprised. He was still adjusting to Jennifer's sudden change in demeanor.Sensing his thoughts, Jennifer smiled sheepishly and explained, "I thought about what you said last night, and I think... you're right."Maxwell paused. "Really?"Jennifer nodded. "Yes, I've thought it through. Maybe you're right. I should have come to you first when something like this happens. So, Maxwell, I'm ready to confess. If you believe me, help me look into it. If not, I'll let my brother keep investigating. I know she's your mother, and I understand how difficult that can be for you."Maxwell was determined. "Do you remember what I told you? I'll always stand by your side no matter what. I'll believe you as long as you're willing to talk."Jennifer huffed, unconvinced. "Liar! You didn't believe me or the kids when Cal pushed your mother."Maxwell

Maxwell gently placed Cassidy on the bed. He felt guilty. "Cass, I'm not here to blame you, so don't be scared."Cassidy backed away. "So, you're taking me to see a psychologist?""No," Maxwell replied softly. "I'm here to apologize. I didn't investigate thoroughly before and almost wronged you. Can you forgive me?"Cassidy looked confused and asked in disbelief, "You... really don't blame me anymore?"Maxwell sighed. "Although this incident wasn't your fault, you shouldn't have kept secrets from Mommy and me and let your imagination run wild. Do you not trust us? How could we ever abandon you?"Cassidy felt guilty. "Mommy already scolded me. I... I won't trust Grandma again. I only trust you and Mommy, and also Cal."Maxwell kissed his daughter's cheek and smiled. "That's right. Now go to sleep. I will take you and Cal to school tomorrow."Cassidy tilted her head at him. "So, are you and Mommy back together? You're not fighting anymore?"Maxwell chuckled. "Have we ever fought

"Thank you, Dr. Gardner. Your trust is all I need," Jennifer said. Preston left after that.Not long after, Maxwell called her, sounding anxious and worried. "Jennifer, are you okay? I just finished a meeting and saw the news online. Don't be afraid. I'll clean up this mess as soon as possible. I'm going back to confront my mom right now.""Could you pick me up on your way back?" Jennifer sighed helplessly. "The hospital told me to take maternity leave early, which, to put it bluntly, means I've been suspended."There was a moment of silence on the other end before he mumbled, "Jennifer, I'm sorry.""I'm not blaming you. You're your own person." With that, Jennifer hung up.Half an hour later, Maxwell arrived at her hospital and took her home. Upon arriving home, they found that the women who had been slandering Jennifer were all there. Camila was surrounded by them, appearing as if she had been wronged.Maxwell walked in with Jennifer, his face red with anger. He didn't car
