You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 404
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

Jennifer's face finally lit up with a smile as she said, "Thank you."Maxwell exhaled in exasperation. He could not shake the feeling that he was wrapped around her finger.…Once they arrived home, Maxwell instructed Jennifer to eat dinner first. He, on the other hand, rushed to the bathroom and took a cold shower, calming the desire that had built up throughout the journey.As soon as he was done, his phone rang urgently.Maxwell answered the call, only to hear Michael's panicked voice."Mr. Lance, we have a problem. The news about your plan to acquire Yale Corporation has reached the board of directors. The shareholders are too scared to question you, so they've been calling me for answers."Now that Mr. Lance Senior is critically ill, your father and brother are eyeing your position. At a time like this, we can't let anything go wrong."Maxwell was well aware of everything Michael had said. However, with years of experience in the business world, he had long learned to stay
You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 406
Jennifer did not understand why Maxwell would slander Zion like that.In her perception, her father had always been so kind and loving toward her. He was dedicated to his job, often leaving early and returning late.So, what gave Maxwell the right to accuse Zion of being a murderer? Jennifer grew increasingly furious the more she dwelled on it. Her eyes were now blazing with anger.She was overwhelmed with disappointment as she wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. Jennifer had believed that after leaving Robert's ward and pouring her heart out to Maxwell, he would finally understand her. Yet, he remained the same arrogant and selfish man. After what seemed like an eternity, the familiar voice reached her ears. "How long do you plan to stay here? If you catch a cold, I'll have to take care of you."Jennifer was startled into a jump. She turned back to look at him and answered defiantly, "If I catch a cold, I'll manage on my own. I don't need your help! Otherwise,

Zion's face turned ashen with anger. However, for the sake of Yale Corporation, he had no choice but to endure it. Clenching his teeth, he asked in a low voice, "Mr. Lance, Jennifer mentioned that you asked to see me today to discuss acquiring Yale Corporation. If I refuse, you'll respect my decision, right?"Maxwell stared at him quietly and replied, "There are some things I'd like to address first. I believe you'll agree once I say them."Zion could not figure out Maxwell's intentions. So, he answered with a hint of impatience, "Well then, Mr. Lance, please enlighten me.""Jennifer and Laura are best friends. If I'm not mistaken, you and Harry were once very close as well. Why does it seem like you're strangers with no connection now?" Maxwell interrogated, enunciating each word deliberately.In an instant, Zion's expression changed drastically. Though Maxwell did not delve into the details of those years, his gut feeling told him that Maxwell must know something.He struggled

Zion, unable to contain his emotions, defended himself, "Jennifer is my daughter, and I cherish her more than anything. How could I possibly use her for my gain?"Yes, I've made mistakes in the past, but I intended to help people, not harm them. I'm not someone who would stop at nothing to get what I want!"Maxwell laughed sarcastically in response. "If you truly felt guilty and knew you were wrong, you would be in prison by now. In the end, you still covered up your crimes and remained free." Zion could not hold it in any longer. In the next second, he burst into tears as he covered his face with his hands. "Yes, you're right. I didn't step forward back then and did everything I could to hide my crimes instead. But all these years, I've deeply regretted it. I haven't had a single good night's sleep!"Yet, Maxwell did not feel sorry for him. After all, compared to Simon's ordeal, Zion got what he deserved.He reminded Zion, "I'll try my best to protect you and Yale Corporation

Jennifer lowered her head shyly, her heart in turmoil. She wondered what she meant to Maxwell now.But after hearing what Zion said, she was grateful for everything he had done for her and Yale Corporation. Agnes was also delighted to see that the issue was resolved. For the first time, she looked kindly upon Jennifer. She could not help but think that her granddaughter had finally proven her worth.At the very least, Yale Corporation now had Maxwell as a powerful backer. Therefore, Agnes hurriedly told Jennifer, "Jennifer, moving forward, make sure you get along well with Mr. Lance. You should also come back and learn some cooking from me. Being more domestic will appeal to men."Jennifer furrowed her brows awkwardly and replied, "Grandma, I've already divorced Maxwell."Even if she had not, she did not want to resort to treating herself poorly to win his favor. Agnes' expression darkened right away. "Take it as doing it for your father and our family. Shouldn't you be more

So, Jennifer took the wine glass from Agnes, set it aside, and uttered, "Grandma, he said he doesn't want to drink. Besides, alcohol isn't good for our health."Agnes felt embarrassed and shot her a glare. In contrast, Maxwell chuckled lightly."Okay, I'll listen to you," he said to Jennifer, his voice tinged with affection.At that moment, Maxwell seemed like a man under his wife's thumb.Jennifer's face flushed red with embarrassment. She could not fathom why he had chosen to speak to her in such a suggestive tone in front of her father and grandmother. After finishing their meal at the Yale residence, Agnes insisted on Maxwell staying for coffee. "No, thank you. I have things to attend to back home, so I'm leaving with Jennifer now."After declining, Maxwell held Jennifer's hand, ready to leave.But right then, Zion called out to them. He looked at Maxwell intently and remarked, "Mr. Lance, I'm entrusting Jennifer to you."In the gaze shared between Zion and Maxwell, ther

Jennifer bowed her head silently, and whispered, "But Rachel lost her child. Don't you blame me for it?"Would Maxwell accept her child if he no longer blamed her?Maxwell fell silent, neither blaming nor forgiving her. After all, Jennifer still didn't know Rachel never went through the abortion. The doctor was about to begin the surgery when he rushed in. But he managed to take Rachel out before they could proceed. Now that Ben was on his side, he wouldn't tell on him to Robert. But Jennifer knew nothing about this.Maxwell was conflicted. Should he tell Jennifer the truth? But knowing Jennifer, if she knew Rachel was still pregnant with his child, she would never come back to him willingly.Jennifer's hope died away with Maxwell's silence. She wished he would tell her it was all water under the bridge and he didn't blame her. But he didn't.Indeed, the child Robert forcibly aborted was Maxwell's flesh and blood. How could he not be heartbroken or resent her? Jennifer smiled se
