You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance Chapter 18
Jennifer realized that things had escalated too far immediately. "Laurie, stop it. You're going to get in trouble."Laura still retained her rationality. She had just wanted to teach Rachel a lesson; with that done, she flung Rachel toward the driveway. "Get lost!" She pointed a threatening finger at Rachel. "If I see you harassing Jennifer here, I'll beat you up again!"After Rachel left, Jennifer clutched at her chest. "You scared me, Laurie.""That's nothing." Laura pounded on her chest. "If my future husband ever cheats on me, I'll make sure the bitch regrets being born!"Jennifer laughed as well. "That was rather vindictive, to tell you the truth. If I knew this would happen to me, I would've taken martial arts classes when I was young as well!"As she spoke, she went into the kitchen and got Laura a glass of water.After fighting and sweating so much earlier, she must be thirsty."Why are you here so early, Laurie?" she asked curiously."Sorry, Jennifer," Laura said glo

Jennifer ran over immediately. "Sir, there's a misunderstanding here. Please don't arrest her. We'll pay for all damages, or if she wants to sue, we can hire a lawyer.""That comes later," one of the policemen said coldly. "The victim has already reported the case. We have to follow the due process."With that, they left with Laura.Before she left, Laura gave Jennifer a forced smile. "Don't worry, Jennifer, I'll be fine. Oh, and don't tell my dad."If her father heard about this, he would give her yet another scolding. Even worse, he might offer Rachel money to settle this.She didn't want to give Rachel any money at all.After Laura was arrested, Jennifer panicked.However, it was late at night; Robert was definitely sleeping by now. She couldn't call him for help.The only person who could help her was Maxwell.Jennifer tried calling him, but he did not pick up his phone.She figured that he was probably taking care of Rachel, considering that she'd been hurt in the fight.

"Who said you could come here and spout nonsense, Jennifer Yale?" Maxwell said darkly. "Why are you announcing your status to everyone now? Are you trying to use public opinion against me?"Jennifer hadn't expected him to think of her that badly.She suddenly realized that he had fired the receptionist not because he was standing up for her, but because he needed to shut everyone up. It was a subtle threat.She felt cold all over.Maxwell was a ruthless man. She would never understand what was going through his mind."I just hope you can let Laura off lightly. I didn't want to announce our relationship either," Jennifer said meekly. "Laura only did it because of me. She's hot-tempered."Maxwell turned suddenly and stalked over to her. "Do you know how badly you hurt Rach?" he roared. "She's a dancer. You dislocated her arm. This is going to be detrimental to her career! You hate Rachel, don't you, Jennifer Yale? You told Laura to beat her up!"Jennifer almost cried in grievance.

However, Michael still preferred Jennifer to be his boss' wife when he compared the two women. After all, Rachel was a hypocrite who only pretended to be kind when Maxwell was around. If Maxwell wasn't there, she showed her true colors and bossed everyone around. At the end of the day, Rachel was merely a mistress whom Maxwell kept on the side. Michael had grown tired of her antics in trying to act as the lady boss! Thus, Michael decided to go along with the flow and help Jennifer out this time. …Jennifer searched through several hospitals in Haven City with well-known orthopedic departments. Finally, she found Rachel at a private orthopedic hospital. Maxwell had chosen the best VIP ward with a beautiful view overlooking a lake for Rachel. The ward was equipped with the best facilities as well. Moreover, he employed six caretakers to stay inside the ward and wait on Rachel hand and foot. Jennifer couldn't help feeling bitter when she saw the scene before her. Clearly, Rache

Rachel gritted her teeth and said, "Then, just wait for Laura to be prosecuted! Even if she gets released eventually, she will still have a criminal record with the police. This record will follow her for the rest of her life, becoming a blemish that will haunt her forever!" Jennifer's heart sank. Laura ended up in this situation because she was trying to help her. At this point in time, did she have any other choice?Finally, Jennifer conceded to Rachel's demands so that she could get Laura out of the police station as soon as possible. "How can I trust you?" Jennifer looked at her suspiciously. "What if you back out and refuse to release Laura after I divorce Maxwell and admit to causing your grandmother's death? I would have to suffer a double whammy!" Rachel snorted and gave Jennifer a sidelong glance. "Jennifer, do you think you still have a choice? I'm giving you an opportunity, not negotiating with you! You better be clear about that!" Jennifer knew that even if danger

Maxwell sensed something off about Jennifer. His heart quivered as he pressed further, "What's wrong with you? Tell me!" Jennifer took a deep breath and held back her tears. "I promise, you won't regret coming back this time." After his call with Jennifer ended, Maxwell stared at the darkened phone screen in confusion. Rachel was right beside him, lying injured on the hospital bed. However, Jennifer's voice on the phone just now was clearly off. Maxwell didn't want to admit that he felt concerned. Nonetheless, his heart was gripped with worry. He wanted to return home and see what was going on. Rachel guessed that the call was from Jennifer. After all, she would want to get the divorce done as soon as possible for the sake of getting Laura out. She was almost certain that Jennifer called Maxwell home to talk about their divorce. Rachel pretended to be understanding and said, "Maxwell, is that your wife? Did she ask you to go home?"When Maxwell remembered the grievances th

"Jennifer?" Maxwell was startled and quickly stood up. He gathered her into his arms and rushed to the bedroom. After he placed her on the bed, Jennifer still hadn't regained consciousness. "Jennifer, stop the act and get up!" Maxwell snapped as he stood beside her. "One moment you're sobbing, the next you're trying to gain my sympathy. Tell me, how many tricks do you have up your sleeve?" Unfortunately, there was no response. Maxwell reached out and touched her forehead. It was scalding hot. Was Jennifer running a fever?Maxwell took out his phone and made a call to his private doctor, Derek Spellman. While waiting for Derek, he went to the bathroom and fetched a basin of cold water. He intended to use a towel to cool her down. Coincidentally, Maxwell caught sight of her damp clothes in a basin beside the sink. These were the clothes Jennifer wore when she came to see him this morning. So, did she walk back in the rain today? "Damn it," Maxwell cursed under his breath

Jennifer quickly ran downstairs, but the divorce agreement that she printed yesterday was not on the coffee table. She searched high and low. Finally, Jennifer found the torn-up divorce agreement in the rubbish bin. There was only her signature there. The space for Maxwell's signature remained blank. At that moment, Jennifer wasn't sure whether she felt relieved or disappointed. She felt relieved because Maxwell was still her husband. On the other hand, she was disappointed because she hadn't fulfilled Rachel's request. Laura was still locked up at the police station. She couldn't be so selfish!…Martha returned to the villa that morning. Jennifer didn't expect her to come back today. After all, she hadn't had the chance to call Martha as many things had happened recently. Martha said with a smile, "Mr. Lance asked me to return and take care of you, Madam. He still cares about you as he said that you can't take care of yourself alone." Jennifer forced a smile, but she di
