Jennifer was left speechless. She did let anger cloud her judgment. She cherished the child growing in her belly. How could she bear to harm them?Moreover, she couldn't possibly skip her father's funeral. So, she had no choice but to agree, "Fine, I promise you. I agree with whatever you say! Besides, you already have someone watching over me. Even if I wanted to harm this child, someone would report to you, wouldn't they?"Maxwell finally let it rest. He knew Jennifer was hurt by her father's sudden passing and didn't want to coerce her. But the thought of her wanting to leave with their child left him no other choice.Even if Jennifer hated or resented him, Maxwell didn't mind as long as she was still by his side.…Jennifer was there when Zion was brought to his grave. Agnes cried uncontrollably while Jennifer remained very quiet. She didn't shed a tear and stared blankly ahead with a tired gaze.Maxwell sat beside her, holding her close. "If you want to cry, just cry. It's n

"Alright, let's go get some food." Maxwell pulled Jennifer downstairs.Martha had prepared breakfast. Seeing Jennifer in a better state, she quickly served her a plate of food. Maxwell instructed Martha, "Jennifer is pregnant. Lay down mats on the stairs to prevent her from slipping. Also, find a designer to design a children's room.""Yes, I'll get it done now." Martha smiled and agreed.She was grinning from ear to ear seeing how well Maxwell was treating Jennifer. Yet Jennifer remained unfazed.After breakfast, Maxwell took her to work. But the two bothersome bodyguards were still shadowing her. Jennifer stopped and whined, "Can you tell them off? I feel like a prisoner."Maxwell hesitated but didn't agree. "I'll have them stationed further away. Don't worry, they won't interfere with your work."Although Jennifer was annoyed, she was helpless against it since she failed to sway Maxwell's decision.So, Maxwell took Jennifer to work while the two bodyguards trailed after h

Jennifer didn't feel the joy of being picked up by Maxwell. Instead, she felt exhausted from living under constant surveillance. After getting into the car, she was startled to see the bruises on Maxwell's cheeks.She quickly asked, "What happened to your face?""Nothing, I just got into a fight," Maxwell said nonchalantly.Jennifer looked at him in disbelief. "Why are you getting into fights at your age?"Besides, with Maxwell's status, who would dare fight him? And even if there was a fight, why would he get involved personally?Noticing her confusion, Maxwell decided not to hide the truth. "I fought with Nathan."Jennifer's eyes widened in shock. "You... What did you say?"She was in disbelief. "You fought with Dr. Lowe? He… He did this to you?"She couldn't believe that the usually gentle and elegant Nathan would resort to violence.Maxwell sneered and warned, "Jennifer, you better be worrying about me and not Nathan."Jennifer fumed. "Why should I worry about you? Dr. Lo

Rachel froze at Maxwell's words. She asked in disbelief, "What do you mean… We won't meet again? Our child is about to be born. As their father, don't you want to witness their birth and be there as they grow up?"But Maxwell's next words crushed her completely. "Jennifer is also pregnant. The child she is carrying is the only Lance family heir my grandfather recognized and accepted."Rachel couldn't believe her ears. "What… What did you just say?"How could this be possible? They had already divorced. How could Jennifer be pregnant?Rachel trembled. "You two are divorced. You can't possibly know who she interacts with during her working hours. How can you be sure that this child is yours? She didn't conceive during the time you were married, so how could she be pregnant now that you're divorced?""Rachel!" Maxwell sternly reprimanded her. "Watch your words. I will not allow you to slander her. I know Jennifer well enough to be certain that the child is mine."Rachel felt her wor

Jennifer trembled in Maxwell's embrace and choked out, "My baby has a home now. I was so scared, thinking my baby would be without a father. I was prepared to be a single mom."Maxwell felt both heartache and anger. He cupped her face, making her look into his eyes, and said seriously, "You should have told me about this when you found out, instead of keeping it all to yourself. You'll only hurt yourself that way, understand?"Jennifer complained sadly, "You didn't believe me at first. You thought I reported to Grandpa and hurt Rachel's baby. What if I had told you back then and you didn't accept my child?"Regret and guilt washed over Maxwell. He held Jennifer close and gently patted her back. "Alright, it's all my fault. Let's not bring up the past, okay? From now on, Rachel will be out of the picture. Our lives will only consist of us and our baby."Jennifer smiled as she realized her love for him hadn't faded at all. Previously, due to Rachel, she had never dared to take this s
