Lahat ng Kabanata ng You've Got the Wrong Woman, Mr. Lance: Kabanata 931 - Kabanata 940

Jennifer was momentarily stunned, even a bit disoriented.When she first learned that Camila was responsible for her mother's depression and suicide—the one who had sold her to traffickers and ruined Hugo's childhood—she definitely felt the urge to kill her.However, Jennifer knew the knife in her hand was a tool for healing, not for harm. She wouldn't stoop to that level.So, her voice turned cold as she replied, "Hugo and I don't have the kind of cruelty your mother does. She's the one who wants us dead!"Maxwell's gaze darkened upon hearing that. "I believe you don't have that in your heart. But Hugo… He says he's moved on, but deep down, he still wants my mother dead. I never realized he was the kind of person who'd say one thing and do another."The truth was, Jennifer didn't know Hugo that well. After all, she had only recently acknowledged him as her brother. She wasn't entirely sure what he was capable of, especially with his violent streak."Just let him go!" she snapped

Maxwell gripped the steering wheel tightly, drawing in a deep breath. All he wanted was for Hugo to land behind bars and never see the light of the day again.How dare he barge into Lance Group and cause chaos? Did he really think Maxwell wouldn't do anything about it?But the thought of Jennifer made him hold back. Maxwell forced himself to stay calm, his voice tight with restraint. "Don't call the police yet. I'm on my way."…When Maxwell arrived at the company, murmurs swept through the employees. It was as if they were watching a drama play out right in front of them. No one had ever seen anyone bold enough to stir up trouble at Lance Group, least of all the president's brother-in-law. Was this really happening?As Maxwell strode toward the elevator, heads turned and eyes followed him.Feeling the weight of their stares, he spun around and snapped, "What are you all looking at? Want to come upstairs and get a front-row seat?"His sharp gaze and cutting tone sent a chill t

However, Camila's fear only lasted a few seconds as she forced herself to calm down.Even if Hugo were bold, he wouldn't dare to kill anyone openly in Haven City, especially not in a busy hospital. There was no way he would act on his own. Perhaps his arrival could even offer her a chance to turn the tables.Suddenly, a wicked idea took shape in Camila's mind."Hugo, are you here to check on me? To see if I'm still alive?" she said with a sneer.Hugo snarled back, "Stop flattering yourself! If it weren't for Jennifer, I wouldn't waste a second here. Maybe I'll send you flowers when you finally kick the bucket. "I don't get how the fire didn't finish you off. You're just the kind of evil person who keeps living while the good ones die young."Camila's smile widened as she replied, "So, you're admitting that the arson was your doing, then?""Bullshit! If I wanted you dead, would I need to start a fire? Why would I give you a chance to escape?"Hugo gritted his teeth and continue

But what had Maxwell done wrong? He had worked so hard to atone for Camila's mistakes. Yet, they treated him the same way they had treated her, branding him a sinner.At that moment, the doctor called Maxwell over. It seemed Camila had suffered from oxygen deprivation for too long, nearly resulting in cardiac arrest. Hence, he needed to sign an advance directive. After signing it, Maxwell ignored Jennifer and hurried toward Camila's ward.Left alone in the corridor, Jennifer sat in silence. At that point, her hands and feet were icy cold. She wanted to leave, but couldn't bring herself to go until she knew if Camila would wake up.Earlier, Maxwell's demeanor had made it clear. If anything happened to Camila, he wouldn't let Hugo off the hook.It felt as if Maxwell had reverted to the cold, ruthless man he once was. Jennifer couldn't even bear to recall the look he had given her just moments ago.Right then, Michael approached her slowly. He offered a cup of warm milk and said,

"Alright, I'll talk to Simon and see if he can find a way for you to meet Hugo," Maxwell replied.As the car came to a stop, he looked at Jennifer earnestly and added, "But you have to promise me one thing. No matter what happens, our family can't fall apart. "I won't forgive my mom for the harm she caused you and Hugo in the past, not even after she almost lost her life this time. Most importantly, I need you to stand by me. No more tantrums, running away, or hiding out at Nimbus Lounge, okay?"Jennifer shot back, "You were the one who raised your voice at me today!"Maxwell's face reflected a blend of irritation and affection. He ruffled her hair before pulling her into an embrace. "Okay, I'm sorry, honey. I was wrong. From now on, I'll try—no, I'll make sure to keep my temper in check, alright?"Once they cleared the air, they finally headed home.…Cassidy and Caleb observed their parents, noting that the tension seemed to have eased. Both children let out a sigh of relief.
