All Chapters of You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Rachel immediately realized that Jennifer must have complained to Maxwell.She looked at him innocently and said, "Is that what your wife told you? I didn't even know she had started working at that hospital. How could I possibly go there to find her?"I just went for a check-up today and saw her there. After she found out that I was pregnant, she chased after me and repeatedly asked if this was your child."At that point, Rachel bit her lip in grievance. "S-She even warned me to get rid of this child. I dared not tell you all these things. How could she still play the victim?"However, Maxwell's expression did not soften the slightest."There are so many hospitals in Haven City. Why did you specifically go to the one where Jennifer works?" Suddenly, Rachel burst into tears. It was as if she had suffered a great injustice. "You're accusing me! I know you don't trust me anymore ever since I pretended to be sick and deceived you. But how could I joke about my baby?"At the mentio

When Rachel woke up early the next morning, she found that Maxwell was already awake.His towering figure was seated on the couch, and the ashtray before him was filled with cigarette butts. It seemed like he had been smoking quite a bit. Rachel walked over and crouched before him. Her voice choked up as she said, "You didn't sleep well either, right? You couldn't bear to part with our child, could you?"Maxwell neither admitted nor denied it. After all, this was his child, too. He was about to end the life of his flesh and blood. So, of course, he felt bad.But it did not matter anymore. What Maxwell wanted was Jennifer's child, not Rachel's. He handed Rachel two property transfer agreements and two cards. "I had Michael arrange this overnight. These two villas are situated in Haven City's prime locations. And the funds on these cards are enough to keep you comfortable for the rest of your life," Maxwell calmly explained.Rachel shook her head in response. "What do you t

Rachel nodded in acknowledgment. "Alright, I'll sign it."She was about to follow the doctor back into the operating room when Maxwell suddenly grabbed her hand.Rachel was bewildered and asked, "Max, you… What are you doing?""We're not proceeding with this surgery," Maxwell replied solemnly with a darkened expression. Rachel was overwhelmed with joy by his words. "Max, is this true? Don't make it hard for yourself. I'm fine, really. Let's just go ahead with it. As long as you're happy in the future, I'll be at peace."But Maxwell wrestled with his conscience. He knew he could not be that selfish.Though he did not want to lose Jennifer, he could not rob a woman of her chance to become a mother.The surgery was too risky, and Maxwell did not want Rachel to take that chance. And so, he led Rachel out. When they reached the ward entrance, Maxwell spotted Jennifer standing there.Her face was devoid of emotion, but her eyes were filled with disappointment and pain. Jennife

Touched by his words, Jennifer gazed at Zion. "Perhaps you were right. I shouldn't have held onto that glimmer of hope and married Maxwell from the start. Just as you foresaw, I wasn't happy.""But staying here indefinitely isn't the solution. You need to address the problem," Zion responded, worry written all over his face. "Yes, I want a divorce."Although Jennifer's tone was soft, she was resolute. "I don't want to share a husband with other women. It feels dirty to me."Instead of dissuading her, Zion looked at Jennifer with admiration. "That's my daughter! Just hearing you say that is enough. I'm ready to face any challenge to help you break free from the Lance family.""Dad, don't worry about me. Maxwell won't harm me. But I'm afraid he'll take it out on you. I know his character and temper well. Please don't confront him head-on," Jennifer advised. Zion's eyes turned red as he let out a long sigh. "Bridget's mother has taken her away, and they've vanished without a t

Now, Rachel chose not to force Maxwell into getting a divorce. On the contrary, she skillfully handled the situation. Without saying too much, she was ready to leave. Only by doing so could she prevent Maxwell from feeling displeased. Rachel knew that she did not need to urge him to divorce Jennifer. As long as this child and their relationship existed, Jennifer would never be able to accept it. They would not be happy. At that thought, Rachel appeared even more considerate. She wanted to let Maxwell see the difference between herself and Jennifer. "Max, I'm leaving now. Don't overwork yourself, okay?"Rachel cast Maxwell a reluctant glance and left his office.Eager to curry favor with her, the secretary escorted her downstairs. As Rachel was about to get into the car, the secretary asked in a flattering tone, "Ms. Walker, when will we have the pleasure of attending your and Mr. Lance's wedding?""It should be soon." Rachel smiled shyly. With that, she got into the ve
