Chapter 621

But to Rachel's surprise, Maxwell didn't say a word, allowing Jennifer to walk all over her!Rachel was seething with anger but maintained a smiling facade. "Dr. Susan, I've admitted my mistake. Won't you forgive me? Besides, who's going to take care of Jasper if I leave? My husband runs a company and is busy every day. Surely, you don't expect him to take over, do you?"Jennifer remained unmoved. "That's your problem, not mine. You can also choose the second option, and leave with your child!"Rachel couldn't believe that Jennifer had become so aggressive.Just then, Jasper got out of the bed and wobbled over to Jennifer. The boy was smaller than other kids his age. He looked up at her with a pitiful expression and pleaded, "Dr. Susan, please don't make my mommy leave, and don't make me leave either, okay? If I go, no one will be able to save me."Jennifer looked down at the small child. Although her expression didn't soften, she was touched.Jasper tugged on Jennifer's hand and

Chapter 622

If Maxwell found out that it was Rachel who had stolen Jennifer's medication and caused Jennifer to be falsely accused, he would never forgive her!"Mom, what's wrong?" Jasper looked at his mother with concern. "Are you upset about leaving me?"Rachel snapped out of her thoughts and forced a smile. "Yes… Yes, that's right. I disagreed with Dr. Susan because I was worried about you."She cautiously looked at Maxwell and asked, "Maxwell… Can you forgive me this one time? I didn't mean to clash with Jennifer. I just thought she wasn't giving Jasper the care he needed.""Why would you think that?" Maxwell eyed her suspiciously. "Did you do something to wrong her? If not, why are you so afraid of her?"Rachel quickly shook her head. "What could I have done to wrong her? Everything I've done has been for Jasper. Perhaps… having Jasper is the worst thing we could have done to her."Hearing this, Maxwell felt trapped, searching for an escape that didn't exist.Rachel was right. It was h

Chapter 623

Jennifer had just finished her rounds and was walking toward Rachel. The latter blocked her path and sneered. "Dr. Susan, you win this time!"Jennifer's expression remained cold. "I don't understand what you're talking about.""Oh, drop the act." Rachel narrowed her eyes. "You pretend to be some aloof saint, but really, you just want to be the mistress of a powerful man like Maxwell! Now that you've managed to get rid of me, you can openly flirt with Maxwell even during work hours!"Over the years, Jennifer developed the ability to remain unshaken, regardless of what others said. Even though Rachel was spouting hurtful things, Jennifer didn't lash out.After a brief silence, Jennifer suddenly looked behind Rachel. "Mr. Lance."Rachel's heart dropped, and she quickly turned around, only to find that no one was there. She realized that Jennifer had tricked her.When she turned back, Jennifer smiled mockingly. "Mrs. Lance, how did you ever become Maxwell's wife with your intelligenc

Chapter 624

"What... are you trying to say?" Maxwell was still confused.Jennifer's voice trembled with anger. "You're still pretending? Why did that child I was treating die? It was because the attending nurse didn't give him enough medication and sold the rest to someone else. That child died unjustly, while your son survived. Mr. Lance, did you already know everything when you witnessed the accusation? Did you find me and that child's mother foolish and laughable?""No!" Maxwell realized the misunderstanding and refuted, "You've got it wrong! Jasper was being treated by another doctor. His condition did improve, but it had nothing to do with your medication. I would never use another child's life to save my son!"Jennifer looked at him in disappointment, her eyes turning red with anger. She choked, "Why did you take that knife for me back then? Was it out of guilt? Because you took the medication and caused that child's death? Or were you afraid that no one would save your son if I died?"H

Chapter 625

Jasper rubbed his eyes and said gloomily, "I heard you arguing just now, so I couldn't sleep. But I don't understand what you were talking about."Maxwell looked at his son and smiled bitterly. "Sorry for waking you up. The truth is... Even I don't understand what she was talking about."He really didn't understand.Maxwell sighed and carried his son back to the hospital ward, putting him to sleep. But Maxwell himself couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried.He sat on the couch the entire night.Maxwell was certain he hadn't done anything related to the medications, but that didn't mean Rachel wouldn't have. However, he also found it hard to believe that Rachel would do something that heartless.Maxwell decided that after the morning rounds, he would confront Rachel to get to the bottom of this.However, to his surprise, the doctor who came for the rounds that morning wasn't Jennifer. Maxwell was uneasy. "Where is Dr. Susan?""Oh, Dr. Susan terminated her contract with

Chapter 626

"I'm going too." Rachel immediately followed Maxwell. "I want to know what's going on. Why would Jennifer accuse us of stealing her medicine? I refuse to bear such an unjust accusation!"Half an hour later, they arrived at the clinic. Michael was already there, leading a search.Maxwell anxiously awaited the results. However, after searching for a long time, his men found no one. The clinic was completely deserted.Rachel feigned concern. "Was Dr. Watkins a fraud? Let me call him! I can't believe he was deceiving us all along."She called Clement, but his phone was turned off. Maxwell then instructed Michael to search the clinic for medicine.Soon, Michael returned with several bottles filled with powder. "Mr. Lance, there's a lab in this clinic. These bottles contain something strange. I can't understand what's written on the labels..."Maxwell's gaze darkened as he ordered, "Take these for testing. Keep some samples as well."Rachel started crying. "How could I have been so ca

Chapter 627

The greatest lesson Jennifer had learned was from Maxwell and his family. She realized she was still too trusting, and it resulted in betrayal and exploitation.But every time she thought about it, her mind couldn't help but replay the moment when Maxwell shielded her from the knife, and how gently he had applied ointment to her ankle. Why do people have to be so complicated?Jennifer sighed and closed the curtains. She kept telling herself that once she returned abroad and got busy with her experiments, she would forget everything about this place.Just then, the doorbell rang.Jennifer was startled. Who could it be at this hour? She walked to the door and checked the porch camera. Her heart raced. It was Maxwell!She stumbled back, not intending to open the door.Her phone rang as well. It must be the driver. She answered the call and heard the driver's voice, "Did you call a taxi? I'm here. Where are you?"Jennifer stared at Maxwell outside her door through the camera and hes

Chapter 628

Jennifer walked to the window and opened the curtains. She leaned against the wall, gazing at the scenery outside. Then, she froze when she saw a figure standing under the streetlight.Was that Maxwell? Who else could it be if not him?Had he lost his mind? Why was he standing out there in the pouring rain?Jennifer quickly drew the curtains. She pressed herself against the wall and shut her eyes. Out of sight, out of mind. She didn't care what he wanted to do.Reason told her she shouldn't go out and get involved with him again. He was ruthless, and everything he did was for his child and family.But for some reason, Jennifer couldn't bear it any longer after hearing the claps of thunder outside. Her feet moved of their own accord, and she grabbed an umbrella and rushed out the door.When Maxwell saw her appear before him, a glimmer of hope ignited in his brooding eyes.They were only a few feet apart, yet it felt like they were separated by miles.Under the dim streetlight, t

Chapter 629

"Because you like me." Maxwell stared at her. "Jennifer, look into my eyes. You still have feelings for me, don't you?"He was convinced that even after five years, he still understood Jennifer. Even a single gesture or glance from her told him that she still cared.Jennifer felt as though her deepest secret had been exposed. She snapped defensively, "You're talking nonsense! You're a married man. Why do you keep coming to me? You know I won't do anything like that!"A look of pain crossed Maxwell's face. He had no choice but to take a step back. "Fine, let me explain everything to you now. If, after I've explained, you still can't forgive me, I won't say another word."Jennifer wasn't sure if it was the alcohol or the fact that she was drenched in the rain, but she felt a splitting headache and just wanted everything to end as quickly as possible. She nodded. "Alright, make it quick."With that, Maxwell followed her into her home. Both of them were soaked and looked disheveled. J

Chapter 630

Maxwell had already finished his shower in the other bathroom, but Jennifer still hadn't come out. He thought she was avoiding him.Jennifer bit her lip and finally said, "Well... Could you... Could you bring me my pajamas?"Realization dawned on Maxwell. A small smile played on his lips as he asked where she kept her pajamas. After she told him, he quickly brought them to her.Jennifer cautiously cracked the door open, just enough to extend her hand. "Give them to me."But Maxwell, mischievous as ever, didn't hand over the clothes. Instead, he pushed the door open."Maxwell! Give me my clothes now!" Jennifer yelled in frustration, tugging at the corner of her pajamas. "If you don't, get out of my house!"Sensing her anger, Maxwell immediately let go, intending to hand the clothes to her. Unfortunately, because Jennifer had been pulling hard, she lost her balance and fell backward when Maxwell released the pajamas.She screamed, bracing herself for a hard landing, expecting to
