Jennifer's heart tightened. She knew they couldn't reconcile. But she had promised Robert to protect Maxwell and not let anyone harm him. Even if she wanted to leave, she would wait until Maxwell had sorted out the situation with Lance Group and found his footing.Jennifer smiled. "Rachel's child is also your child. It's natural not to wish to kill your flesh and blood. And I will keep my promise and stay with you through this difficult time."Maxwell's heart warmed and he pulled her into his embrace. He mumbled, "Jennifer, I'm not sure if you know this, but you've grown soft."Jennifer used to be a rose with thorns. But now, she seemed to have shed them away. But Jennifer knew that wasn't the case, that she was left with no other choice.There were many things beyond her control, and she could only accept them reluctantly.After Maxwell ate, they went to bed early. After many busy days, lying together gave them a sense of security, allowing them to finally fall asleep.The next

Lorraine was on the couch with her legs crossed, looking as if she was there to settle a score. "Hmph! You're finally here! I thought you were too guilty to even face me!"Jennifer wanted to argue with her, but Maxwell held her hand tightly and stopped her. He calmly descended the stairs and gave the maid a weird smile. "What's this? Ms. Young has been here shouting all morning. Why haven't you served her a cup of tea?"Lorraine froze and Jennifer looked at Maxwell in disbelief.Had he gone mad? Usually, Maxwell wouldn't even bother with Lorraine. So, why was he being polite with her now?Lorraine retorted, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You must be plotting something! Did you poison the tea? Are you trying to kill me?"Maxwell chuckled. "Poison you in my own house? That would be foolish of me. But now that Grandpa is gone, I must take care of you on his behalf, Ms. Young."Lorraine narrowed her eyes. What was with Maxwell's change of attitude? Was he trying to curr

"You!" Lorraine rushed forward. "As your elder, I'll teach you some manners today!"However, Maxwell grabbed her wrist before her slap could land. She glared at him nervously. "What… What are you doing? Are you going to hit me?""I don't hit women. But I won't tolerate anyone being unruly in my home! No one is allowed to land their hands on my woman!" He pushed her away with a dark look.But Lorraine was not one to back down. Maxwell had always oppressed her since Robert protected him. Now that her husband and son controlled Lance Group, why should she endure Maxwell's disdain?"I advise you to be sensible and apologize to me on behalf of that brat, Maxwell! Also, you clearly tampered with Grandpa's will. There's no reason he wouldn't leave some assets to your father. Zachary is his only child. These assets should belong to him instead!" Lorraine sneered. "If you comply, you might still get some dividends from Lance Group in the future. But if we take this to court, I guarantee you

Maxwell nodded and asked, "So, are you only worrying because of Grandpa? Aren't you afraid that I might end up homeless and penniless one day?"Jennifer retorted angrily, "You had it coming! You've been moping around at home instead of going to the company! You're the one who gave up!"Seeing her upset, Maxwell decided to reveal some truth. "Have you ever heard of 'killing with kindness'? If they want to cause trouble, let them mess things up with Lance Group."Jennifer stared at him in a daze. Her confusion was utterly adorable.Maxwell suddenly turned to Martha. "Did you record everything like I asked you to?"Martha quickly handed him the camera. "Yes. The woman's tantrum and unreasonable behavior are all on tape!"Maxwell reviewed the footage with satisfaction.Jennifer finally understood. "So you were prepared for this? But the recording won't be enough to prove anything. They're accusing you of tampering with the will. Have you figured out how to clear yourself?""Why wou

Jennifer decided not to press further. She knew Maxwell must have tried his best to find his mother, but she might be deliberately hiding from him. Or perhaps she was no longer alive. Either scenario would shatter Maxwell's hopes and cause him great pain. After all, it would be even more heartbreaking if his mother intentionally avoided him for over 20 years.Maxwell read her mind and mumbled bitterly, "Maybe she's dead. Or maybe she started a new family. She might have even forgotten about me."Jennifer didn't know how to comfort him. Any words seemed pointless because she had not experienced what he had. All she could do was be there for him, letting him know she was by his side.After a while, Jennifer spoke gently, "I believe your mother still remembers you. Perhaps she was hurt too deeply by your father and didn't want to come back. Maybe she is thinking of you, watching over you from a place you can't see."Maxwell smiled and stroked her hair. "I'm not a child anymore. Are yo

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."
