Maxwell stared at Rachel in shock and said incredulously, "Please think about it carefully. It wouldn't be fair to the child if they're born without a father.""They have a father!" Rachel gazed at him, sorrow evident in her eyes. "It's just that their father refuses to acknowledge them."Maxwell massaged his temples in frustration. He had to admit that he hadn't treated Rachel fairly in their relationship. And he couldn't shake the feeling that she should not bring this child into the world, either.But could Maxwell really turn a blind eye if Rachel were to go through with this pregnancy?Right then, Rachel suddenly stepped forward. She wrapped her arms around Maxwell's waist from behind and pressed herself tightly against his back. "Maxwell, promise me not to be so cruel. Please give us a home, okay?"The sound of her crying sent shivers down his spine. Suddenly, memories of their past flooded Maxwell's mind. He had once loved her and wanted to give her nothing but the

Khloe, on the other hand, was utterly flabbergasted. She couldn't believe that such an exceptional and handsome man appeared while she was on duty.Moreover, judging from his impressive demeanor, he was not an ordinary individual. But Khloe couldn't fathom how someone as normal as Jennifer knew a man like Maxwell. "Jennifer, why don't you introduce this gentleman to me?" Khloe said as she fixed her gaze on Maxwell. After all, she was a single woman in her thirties. Hence, at the sight of such an outstanding man, she was determined to seize the opportunity. Just as Maxwell was about to respond, Jennifer beat him to it. "Ms. Carter, this is my brother."Maxwell's expression visibly darkened in response to those words. Meanwhile, Khloe's demeanor shifted instantly. She straightened her hair and adopted a flirtatious tone, saying, "Mr. Yale, you treat Jennifer so well. Your sibling bond is enough to make anyone envious!"Yet, Maxwell did not spare her a glance. "Come with me

When Jennifer saw the lust in Maxwell's eyes, she quickly shoved him away, saying, "Don't get carried away. I'm on duty. I can't chat any longer. It's been too long already.""Okay, head back then. Remember not to overwork yourself."Maxwell affectionately kissed her forehead. As he watched her walk away, his gaze held conflicting emotions.He knew he couldn't hurt such a pure and lovely woman. But on the other hand, there was Rachel, who was pregnant with his child. What could he do?Right then, Maxwell finally made up his mind. He decided to resolve the issue before Jennifer found out.

Despite being pregnant, she continued teaching at the dance studio, ensuring her work remained unaffected.Rachel saw Maxwell outside through the floor-t

Since Maxwell had not returned yet, Jennifer took advantage of the moment to knit the final part. Right then, Zion called. After answering the phone, Jennifer asked, "Dad, it's late. Why did you call?""Are you resting? Is Maxwell with you?" Zion responded with a deep voice. His question left Jennifer somewhat puzzled. "Why are you suddenly asking about Maxwell? He's working late at the office and hasn't come back yet."Zion fell silent for a moment before solemnly saying, "I brought your grandmother to the hospital for a check-up today and ran into him. He didn't see me, but I noticed he was there with a woman."Jennifer's heart sank immediately. She tightened her grip on the phone, and her thoughts drifted to Rachel.Noticing her lingering silence, Zion continued, "I don't know if this woman is the one Bridget mentioned before. But from what I observed, she seemed to be quite close with Maxwell.""Do you know which department they went to at the hospital?"Jennifer waited

Suddenly, Jennifer's stomach fluttered with butterflies. Maxwell had called her "honey". It was the first time he had called her that.She felt as though she could drown in his gentleness. Maxwell tucked her in snugly and said, "I'm going to take a shower. I've had a long day."Thoughts from earlier weighed on Jennifer's mind. Finally, she could not hold it back any longer. "Is there so much to do? You've been tied up at the office all day, right?" she asked indirectly.Maxwell paused momentarily. Then, he nodded. "Yeah, there's too much going on."Jennifer's gaze darkened. It was as if a thick black curtain had enveloped her heart, making it difficult to breathe.So, he did lie to her. Maxwell had clearly accompanied someone to the hospital, yet he did not mention anything about it.He remained oblivious to Jennifer's change of mood and made his way to the bathroom.Jennifer took a deep breath. However, the tightness in her chest persisted.She wanted to confront him d

Khloe proceeded to schedule the tests for Rachel. After taking the examination slip, Rachel suddenly told Khloe, "Doctor, could you please let the young doctor beside you accompany me? I've been feeling dizzy and experiencing tightness in my chest. I'm afraid I might faint if I go alone."Khloe thought the woman before her was somewhat troublesome. But just last month, she had her bonus docked by 500 dollars because of a patient complaint.So, she did not want to offend patients anymore and would usually try to accommodate their requests. Hence, Khloe instructed, "Jennifer, go with her." "Alright."Jennifer was aware that Rachel was most likely doing it on purpose. However, some things could not be avoided just because she wished they would not happen. With that, Jennifer followed Rachel out of the consultation room. "I'd never thought we'd meet here, Ms. Yale," Rachel said while touching her slightly bulging stomach.At the same time, she observed Jennifer's reaction out

Jennifer's heart shattered into pieces. She nodded at Rachel and asked, "You've achieved your goal. Spill it. What more do you want?"Rachel gazed at her with satisfaction. With a mocking tone, she replied, "Ms. Yale, I know you value your dignity and pride. Since the truth is right before you, what's the point in clinging onto Max?"Having said her piece, she strode away, leaving Jennifer standing alone in the cold hallway. Despite the crowd and noise, Jennifer felt as though she couldn't hear or see anything. Her mind had gone blank. It wasn't until Quincy's voice echoed in her ears that she snapped back to reality. "What's wrong, Jennifer?"Quincy had passed by the outpatient clinic and saw Jennifer standing there in a daze. When she approached the latter, she realized Jennifer was crying. Anxious, Quincy shook Jennifer and insisted, "Talk to me. What's going on?""I'm fine," Jennifer muttered numbly as she wiped her tears.She forced a smile and added, "I need to get

Khloe repeatedly brought up Maxwell to prompt Jennifer to open up about her brother. Khloe wanted to know details about his financial situation and job. Unfortunately, Jennifer had never shared any information about Maxwell. Left with no choice, Khloe resorted to a direct approach. "By the way, is your brother coming to pick you up today?""I don't know."A brief moment of confusion flickered across Jennifer's face. Yet, Rachel's pregnancy filled her mind. This time, Khloe asked indirectly, "Your brother probably doesn't have a girlfriend, right? Otherwise, he'd be spending time with her instead of picking you up.""Ms. Carter, it's time to clock out. I'm taking my leave now."Khloe's question was left unanswered as Jennifer rose to her feet and left the clinic. At that sight, there was a hint of disdain on Khloe's face. Had it not been for Jennifer's handsome brother, Khloe wouldn't have been so lenient with her. But Jennifer remained tight-lipped. Several days had pas

Jordan knew he was no match for Maxwell now. Nevertheless, he feared his presence might lead to Maxwell venting his anger on Jennifer."Max, I'm just here to say goodbye to Jennifer. There's no need to be so angry, right?" said Jordan.He continued, "Anyway, I'm leaving tomorrow. I won't pose any threat to you. Please don't make things difficult for Jennifer. I'm begging you."Maxwell sneered and responded disdainfully, "Even if you stay, you're still not a threat to me. As for my wife, do you think you're worthy of calling her by her name?" Jordan's expression changed slightly. But he was in no position to fight for himself. Indeed, Jennifer was Maxwell's wife. So, what right did Jordan have to speak up for her?Jordan sighed and looked at Jennifer intently. "I'm leaving now. I hope you'll be happy."Jennifer remained silent as she watched his retreating figure. After Jordan left, Maxwell coldly remarked, "He's almost out of sight, but you're still looking, huh?"Jennifer

That was because Maxwell could tell Jennifer already knew something."Who told you?" he asked with a darkened expression. He had clearly warned Quincy not to say a word. Yet, she remained oblivious to the consequences and told Jennifer about it. As tears trickled down her face, Jennifer replied with a trembling voice, "If Rachel hadn't come to the hospital today to put on a show for me, I'd still be in the dark, letting you play me for a fool!"What do you want exactly? Are you waiting for her to have the baby so I can witness your perfect family? You've gone too far, Maxwell Lance!"Jennifer trembled with anger. At that point, she had lost her composure and was crying uncontrollably.Suddenly, Maxwell stepped forward to embrace her. "I'm sorry, Jennifer. I'm truly sorry," he muttered."Stop apologizing to me!" Jennifer forcefully pushed him away. She shook her head and questioned, "Why did you lie to me, Maxwell? Why didn't you tell me the truth? Are you worried I wouldn't
