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

Jennifer thanked the doctor, and an overwhelming sense of relief washed over her. After she left the doctor's office, she gently caressed her belly with a contented smile. She thought, "Thank you for not leaving me, my dear baby."Realization struck Quincy as she observed her. "Didn't you want to abort the child before? What's wrong? Did you have a change of heart? You looked nervous earlier, afraid that something might happen to the child."Jennifer smiled in embarrassment and muttered, "The longer I have this child, the more important they are to me. It's getting harder to say goodbye to them."Quincy gave her a pitied look. "But Maxwell still isn't aware of the child. He wouldn't have treated you like that if he knew. Besides, you can't hide it forever once your belly starts to show."Jennifer still couldn't bring herself to do it. She sighed. "Let's see as we go. I'm afraid he still resents me. After all, his first child died because of me, no matter how you look at it."Quinc

Jennifer screamed and ran to Maxwell as if he was her savior.Jordan's eyes were bloodshot and he raised his fist. "You're still so arrogant even now!"He was about to charge forward and return the punch when Jennifer suddenly shielded Maxwell with her body. Jordan's fist froze in the air.Jennifer closed her eyes but stood her ground, not budging an inch. She heard Maxwell's furious roar in her ears before he pulled her behind him."Are you crazy, Jennifer?" Maxwell yelled. "Who told you to interfere?"He didn't even want to imagine what would happen if Jordan's fist connected to Jennifer's face.Jordan's heart ached watching this. Were they acting like a loving couple in front of him? It didn't matter if he could beat Maxwell in a fight, he already lost.With that, Jordan lowered his fist and glared at them before storming off.Maxwell still had a grim look on his face. But when he met Jennifer's innocent and aggrieved gaze, his anger dissipated. He gently stroked her cheek a

Zachary and Lorraine exchanged a look. They heard Robert had drawn up a will. With the limited time left, they needed to pressure Robert to amend the will, ensuring either Jordan or Zachary would take the position of Lance Group's president.The butler emerged. "Mr. Lance Senior wishes to see you, Mr. and Mrs. Lance."Zachary pulled Lorraine along, afraid that Robert might conspire with Maxwell. But the butler stopped them firmly. "Mr. Lance Senior specifically instructed to see only Mr. Maxwell and Ms. Jennifer. No one else is allowed in."Zachary stepped aside in frustration while Lorraine stomped her feet in anger, wishing Robert would hurry up and die.Maxwell and Jennifer entered the room to find Robert connected to an oxygen tank, his face pale and weary."You're here!" Robert smiled kindly. "Have a seat."Tears instantly welled up in Jennifer's eyes. She ran to his bedside and sobbed. "How are you feeling, Grandpa? I'm sorry, it's all my fault. It's because of my family th
