You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 397
Jennifer hurriedly caught up with Maxwell. "I did everything you asked last night. About Yale Corporation, you—"Before she could finish her sentence, Maxwell interrupted, "You don't need to keep talking about it. I know what to do."Jennifer was reluctant to say more as her attempt to speak was silenced by him, and she was afraid of angering him.…At Lance Group, Maxwell went through the information Michael had investigated and was shocked to the core. He had long suspected something was amiss when Zion's financial chain collapsed out of the blue. Why would banks suddenly halt their loans? And what could prompt business partners to withdraw abruptly?Everything seemed orchestrated as if someone was behind it. However, Maxwell could not understand why this person would be Simon. Michael analyzed, "Mr. Lance, if we lend money to Yale Corporation, won't that sour things with Mr. Moore? Considering your relationship with him, it might not be the wisest move."Maxwell massaged

As soon as the words escaped Maxwell's lips, it immediately dawned on him. If even he could think of that, how could a lawyer, with such meticulous reasoning, overlook such a thing?Simon must have considered all these aspects before continuing his investigations. That was how he discovered the connection between Zion and what happened to Anthony, his father.Maxwell did not push further. After all, Simon would not tell him everything due to his relationship with Jennifer. But thinking of her, Maxwell could not help but ask, "Tell me, what do you plan to do with Zion? Or, how much is he involved in your father's death?"If he understood the full extent of their connection, he could at least speculate on Simon's plans for handling Zion."You know I won't tell you anything. If you want to help Jennifer, go ahead. But what I want to do is my business," Simon replied, enunciating each word deliberately. Maxwell's heart clenched upon hearing that, his gaze penetrating. "But now th

Maxwell had anticipated Zion's reaction. He nodded and answered, "I got it. You can leave now."…That evening, after work, Maxwell went to the cardiac surgery department entrance to pick Jennifer up. Coincidentally, he saw Jennifer coming out of the department with Nathan. Maxwell did not know what they were talking about. But Nathan flashed a gentle smile at Jennifer, who returned the smile in kind. It had been a long time since Jennifer had smiled at Maxwell like that. When they spotted Maxwell standing at the door, their smiles disappeared simultaneously. Nathan's eyes held a mix of emotions, and without even greeting Maxwell, he told Jennifer, "Remember not to be late anymore. I'll take my leave now.""Goodbye, Dr. Lowe," Jennifer politely bid him farewell. At the same time, she could sense the awkward tension in the air.Noticing Maxwell's displeasure, she quickly explained, "I was assisting Dr. Lowe in surgery today. That's why we came out together."The sight of Je

Jennifer's eyes were red with anger as she shouted at him, "Maxwell Lance, you've gone too far!"Yet, Maxwell ignored her. Instead, he said, "It's time to visit Grandpa. Remember what you promised me. We have to act like everything's fine in front of him. Don't let him see through us."Jennifer genuinely wanted to refuse. However, putting on this act was more than getting his help for Zion's company. It was also about giving Robert peace of mind in his final days. With that, she went with Maxwell to Robert's ward.Robert observed them as they entered hand in hand, suspicion evident in his eyes. "Grandpa, why are you looking at us like that?" Jennifer inquired with a faint smile. "You're making me feel embarrassed."She tried her best to appear natural, hoping to fool Robert's sharp eyes.With a scoff, Robert adjusted his reading glasses. He then stared at Maxwell and remarked, "You rascal! Did you force Jennifer to act with you so you can fool me again?"Maxwell feigned helpl

Jennifer looked at Robert in surprise. She thought about how well Jordan had treated her in the past and remarked, "Mr. Jordan isn't like that, right? Maybe it's his parents' idea.""Well, like mother, like son. I know exactly what they're up to," Robert answered. Then, a smug smile spread across his face before adding, "But don't worry. I've already prepared the will a long time ago. With you by Maxwell's side, I can rest easy handing over Lance Group to him. "Jennifer, though I always criticize Maxwell, he's still the grandson I raised on my own. His mother left the Lance family when he was very young, and his father had another child with that woman. "You're aware of all these things. He may appear cold and distant, but he's actually in desperate need of love. "He grew up without his parents around, and his father never treated him like his own son. I-I genuinely feel sorry for him."A dull ache surged from within as Jennifer listened to Robert's words. It was not a sharp

Jordan's expression changed slightly as he clenched his fists tightly.Lorraine, on the other hand, could not hold back any longer. "You've already divorced Jennifer, haven't you? Why are you still referring to her as your wife?"After all, Robert was extremely unhappy about Maxwell's divorce. So, she figured their family could use this to their advantage.But now, who would have guessed Jennifer had returned? Were they planning to remarry? Perhaps they thought of exploiting Robert's affection for Jennifer to gain more of his assets.At that thought, Lorraine reacted instantly, her anger palpable."Don't think I'm unaware of your plans!" she spat. "No woman would tolerate their husband having an illegitimate child. "You're just acting with Jennifer to curry favor with Mr. Lance Senior. You're afraid he'll hand over control of Lance Group to Jordan, right?"Maxwell's gaze sharpened as he processed her words. Suddenly, realization dawned upon him. "Was it you who told Grandpa abo

Maxwell's lips curled into a faint smile as he reached out to hold Jennifer's hand."Dad, you heard what Jennifer said, didn't you? So, there's no need for you to worry. I'm not one to leave my opponents any way out."Suppressing his anger, Zachary let out a disdainful snort. With Lorraine and Jordan in tow, he barked, "Let's go!"With every word Jennifer spoke in defense of Maxwell, Jordan felt a sharp pain in his heart. It was as if something was gripping it tightly, making it hard to breathe.He gazed intently at Jennifer before following his parents into Robert's ward. It was only after they had all left that Jennifer finally heaved a sigh of relief. Immediately after, she felt Maxwell's intense gaze locked onto her. Startled, she quickly lowered her head and asked softly, "Why are you looking at me like that?""Earlier… Why did you suddenly speak up for me?"Maxwell's eyes were fixed on Jennifer. He was afraid he would miss any subtle expression of hers. "You're not tr

Recalling the hurtful words he had said, which reduced Jennifer to nothing, Maxwell was now consumed with guilt.He gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands. Instead of driving away, he sat there in silence while his heart ached terribly. Suddenly, Maxwell leaned over and pulled Jennifer into his arms. He stroked her hair repeatedly and whispered, "I'm sorry, Jennifer. I'm so sorry…""You don't owe me any apologies."Jennifer trembled in his embrace, her voice choking with sobs as she responded, "I wanted the divorce, and now, I need your help with my father's problem. I've asked too much of you. "I can't treat you like my benefactor, and I can't force myself to set aside my ego to please you like other women. But Maxwell, I don't like it when you accuse me. I feel extremely sad whenever you misunderstand me."As he listened to the woman in his embrace, all the pent-up emotions Maxwell had been carrying for days dissipated instantly.He felt a sharp pang shoot throug
