At that moment, the secretary knocked on the door and reported, "Mr. Lance, your wife and son are here."Maxwell was momentarily stunned. But upon learning that Jasper had arrived, he went to greet them personally. He hadn't anticipated Rachel would bring Jasper with her today. Moreover, Jasper looked noticeably healthier than he had before."Dad." Jasper lifted his head and looked at Maxwell with wide, innocent eyes. "Can we go to the movies tonight? And I'd really like some fried chicken and fries."Maxwell's expression grew serious as he asked, "Is that a good idea? Jasper, the doctor said you shouldn't eat junk food like that. He also said that you should rest more and limit your activities." After all, Jasper had been born prematurely and had a heart condition, which meant even a few steps could leave him breathless.Then, Maxwell cast a disapproving look at Rachel. "Why did you bring him out? Aren't you worried about the air quality? He could get sick again."Given Jaspe

Since Jasper's health had begun to improve, Rachel had him discharged from the hospital and brought him home. Clement, his personal physician, visited daily to monitor his condition and provide treatment. But of course, the medication administered had been taken from Jennifer. As a result, Jasper's condition continued to improve day by day.Rachel, on the other hand, was in great spirits and often participated in gatherings with other women from high society. Even though she and Maxwell hadn't had a wedding ceremony, she had given birth to his child and had been living in Lance Manor for a long time. Thus, everyone recognized her as Mrs. Lance.As the most affluent family in the elite circle, Rachel's influence grew increasingly significant.That day, at a tea party with the other wealthy ladies, one of them commented with admiration, "Mrs. Lance, you're truly fortunate. Mr. Lance makes a lot of money and treats you so well. Have you received the ten-carat blue diamond yet?""B

Jennifer was paralyzed with fear. Her eyes widened in horror as she braced for the worst. In a flash, a tall figure shielded her. Maxwell was overwhelmed by a sharp pain, and blood immediately gushed from his abdomen. This unexpected turn of events left everyone stunned.Realizing he had attacked the wrong person, the man grew flustered. In the next moment, several security guards rushed forward and restrained him.Maxwell clutched his wound as blood seeped through his fingers. He knelt on one knee in agony, bent over and struggling to breathe. The scene felt like a barrage of swords piercing straight into Jennifer's heart. At that moment, it was as if her heart was being crushed by an invisible hand, causing her intense pain. Her mind went blank as she dropped to her knees. She supported Maxwell from behind and yelled frantically at the crowd, "Quick! Someone get a doctor from the emergency department now!"As Maxwell leaned against her, he saw tears well up in Jennifer's col

Besides, if it weren't for Maxwell's timely arrival, Caleb and Cassidy would have ended up as orphans. They never had a father, and if they lost their mother too… Jennifer couldn't bear to think further.She lowered her head, guilt weighing her, and replied, "You're right. What can I do to make it up to you?"Jennifer knew she would always be burdened by guilt if she didn't find a way to compensate him. However, Maxwell was an influential and wealthy man. He seemed to have everything he needed. So, what could she possibly offer him? Maxwell quickly took the opportunity to say, "Why don't you look after me until I'm healed and discharged?"Jennifer was caught off guard by his request. With a look of shock, she stared at him in disbelief.Maxwell asked, "What's wrong? Is my request too difficult for you? Or do you find it unreasonable?"Jennifer hesitated. It didn't seem overly demanding. At least, he wasn't asking for anything outrageous or seeking financial compensation. Yet,

A wave of panic hit Rachel, and she snapped, "Then think of something else! We can't afford to run out of Jasper's medicine!"Shaun looked at her, clearly puzzled. "Ms. Walker, why not just take Mr. Jasper to see Dr. Susan? She's a doctor, after all, and her job is to treat patients. She wouldn't refuse to help Mr. Jasper."We've already ended a life doing this. Things will get out of hand if we keep going. They'll start to suspect something!"Shaun had spent many years with Hugo in the underworld. Although he had gotten his hands dirty more times than he could count, he and Hugo weren't without principles. At the very least, they weren't the kind who crossed every line.However, Jasper was Hugo's only son. So, Shaun gave in to Rachel's persuasion to help treat Jasper's illness. Yet, he felt that he had made a grave mistake. Thus, Shaun tried to talk some sense into Rachel. "Ms. Walker, I know you want to cure Mr. Jasper, but stealing the medicine isn't the answer. Every child is
