Semua Bab You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance: Bab 431 - Bab 440

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

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."

Jennifer thought Maxwell misunderstood her relationship with Jordan and cried, "I can't believe you still think I'm having an affair with him at a time like this! I looked for him because I was hoping he would spare you!"She bawled her eyes out, feeling wronged, and angrily hit him with her uninjured hand.Maxwell's heart warmed as he let her vent.After a while, he took her hand and muttered, "I never thought that. I was just angry that you went to see him alone and almost got taken advantage of. I was even angrier that you chose to hurt yourself. Do you know how scared I was when I heard you had slit your wrist?"Jennifer broke into a smile. "Dummy. Why would I commit suicide over a scumbag? I was just scaring him."Maxwell paused, staring at the bandage on her wrist. "So, is this wound fake too? Would the doctors have bandaged it so securely if it were fake?"Jennifer chuckled. "Don't forget, I'm a doctor too. I know exactly where the arteries are. Why would I cut an artery?

"Here's your bread." Maxwell put the bread on the table and fed it to her patiently. "Remember to chew."Jennifer felt like the happiest woman alive. "Was it a long wait? Your ears are red from the cold."Maxwell chuckled. "I see you still have a heart. But I can wait as long as it takes if it means making you happy."Jennifer took a bite. It was just as delicious as she remembered. After a while, she bit her lip, looking like she had something to say. She mumbled, "Dr. Lowe was here earlier."Maxwell was surprised. He hadn't expected her to bring it up. Jennifer took out the ointment Nathan had given her and explained, "He came because he heard from the doctor that I was hurt. He brought me this scar removal ointment."Maxwell's anger faded because of her honesty. He glanced at the ointment. "I'll get you something better, okay?"Jennifer laughed. "This ointment is good enough. It's probably imported. But you really are petty."Maxwell feigned anger. "Say that again! Are you tr

"Mr. Lance, please come back and fix Lance Corporation! The three of you are from the same family, so why are your capabilities worlds apart?" The shareholders, who had dismissed Maxwell earlier, now realized how unreliable Zachary and Jordan were. They didn't have strategic minds and only knew how to paint rosy pictures.But this was their own decision. After they dismissed Maxwell, they started regretting their actions. Now that Maxwell had finally returned, the shareholders and executives took the opportunity to expose Zachary and Jordan's actions, hoping to bring Maxwell back.Zachary was furious to hear this and turned red with anger. He cursed them. "You traitors! You supported me when it was profitable, and now that you've had no use for me, you want to turn against me! Don't forget, this company belongs to the Lance family!"One of the shareholders sneered. "What have we used you for? Rather than that, it's more like you deceived and abused our trust! While this company be
