As soon as Ella had a good word in her throat, she suddenly realized something was wrong.

Before she left, she had explained to Mr. and Mrs. Kane that no one could open the door except Jenna, but this Aunt Ruth was not an outsider, and she had made an appointment with Mrs. Kane to make barbecue today.

Would they just open the door?

Thinking of this possibility, Ella pretended to be surprised: "Huh? Mom told you to come today to make barbecue? But she has already taken the two children out to play at the moment. Could it be that she forgot?"

Aunt Ruth was also a little surprised: "Is your mother not at home?"

Ella nodded affirmatively: "The two elders just took their two grandchildren out early in the morning."

"I guess she really forgot," Aunt Ruth quickly came to her senses and waved her hand. "If she forgot, she forgot. It's not a big deal. I'll ask your mother when I see her later. That's fine, girl, go to your work."

Ella nodded in agreement and didn’t talk too much nonsense with

    Ella and Lucas left one after the other, but they didn't notice that someone had been silently watching them from the second-floor window of the Kane family's building.It wasn't until they were gone that she took out her phone and sent a message.Without waiting for a reply, she put her phone in her pocket and continued up the stairs to the Kane family's door. "Mrs Kane, it's me. I've come to find you to make barbecue..."When Mrs. Kane heard the voice, she was stunned for a moment, then slapped her thigh and stood up from the sofa."Oh, I forgot that I had an appointment with Mrs. Ruth to make Barbecue today!"She was about to walk to the door but was stopped by Mr. Kane."What are you doing..."Mrs. Kane didn't finish her sentence before Mr. Kane covered her mouth.Mr. Kane lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, "Don't you remember what Lila said when she left? Don't open the door to anyone except Jenna!"Mrs. Kane widened her eyes. "Mmm..."Although she was only making a sou

    Upon hearing Samuel Griffith's words, Luke quickly chimed in, "Yes, that's right. This is coercion. Testimonies obtained through coercion are not convincing and will not be accepted in court."Ella ignored Luke and turned to Samuel with a smile. "Don't worry, Officer Griffith. I know what to do."After Samuel left, Ella bent down again and lit the charcoal she had brought with her in a basin. Luke watched her actions and felt a chill run down his spine."What... what are you going to do? Just now, that officer said that testimonies obtained through coercion are useless...""Who said they're useless?" Ella sneered, picking up a piece of charcoal and walking toward him. "Just because the court doesn't accept them doesn't mean I don't. I don't care about evidence or no evidence! Do you really think I arrested you to overturn the case?"Luke's head buzzed with her words. "If you're not trying to overturn the case, then what do you want?""My father died in that fire, and my life was ruine

    After Director Sam finished speaking, in order not to delay the surgery for the patient, he quickly let the other doctors go to the operating room first. Leo pressed his lips tightly. He was usually reasonable and gentle, but this time he was unusually stubborn. "Director Sam, Lila... she's the girl I like." Director Sam was surprised. No wonder Dr. Leo hadn't dated or married for so many years. It turned out that he already had someone in his heart, but... "If that's the case, I can't let you participate in the surgery even more." Although the hospital did not have a written rule that doctors cannot perform surgery on their loved ones, it had long been an unwritten rule in the medical community. This was because when doctors perform surgery, they need to be fully focused, and any emotional fluctuations could lead to irreversible consequences. After all, how many people can guarantee that their hands won't shake when they are cutting open their loved ones with a knife? No

    Mom Went Abroad?Kai frowned, feeling that things weren’t that simple.Although his mother, Ella, didn’t tell him what she was going to do when she went out today, he knew that her outing must be for something very important — maybe even dangerous. She had repeatedly told his grandparents and him before leaving: Don’t open the door to strangers.At noon, he held back and didn’t call Ella.It wasn’t until after three in the afternoon, past the time Ella had planned to meet his godmother Jenna, that he couldn’t hold back any longer. He called her, but…Her phone was off.At first, Kai thought her work wasn’t finished yet. But when he tried again half an hour later and the phone was still off, a faint sense of unease crept in. Something wasn’t right. His instinct told him to check the security cameras, but he remembered his promise from yesterday: No hacking.Reluctantly, he put the idea aside and called Uncle Leo instead.No answer.Frustrated, Kai ran a hand through his hair.“Broth

    Mr. Kane wanted to say something more, but Mrs. Kane interrupted, "I think Kai misses his dad, right? It's fine, Lila has gone abroad for something, Kaia followed Jenna, and Kai can stay with his dad for a while."Kai pursed his lips and forced a smile. "Grandma is the best."Although Mr. Kane eventually agreed to take Kai to the general Hospital, Leo was a cardiovascular surgeon, so since Kai still complained of stomach pain, they naturally went to the pediatric department first.The doctor listened and examined Kai's little belly with a stethoscope and his hands, then had the grandparents take him to check his excrement. Finally, he remained silent for a while before speaking."He probably ate too much and caught a slight cold. It hasn't reached the point of enteritis, but children's stomachs are delicate and need attention."Mr. and Mrs. Kane breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.As they left the pediatric department with the medicine, the Kanes reflected all the way.

    “Uncle Leo, can I go in and see Mom?”“Your mom just had surgery and needs to rest quietly…”“I’ll be very quiet.”Leo looked at Kai, who was trying hard to look strong, and suddenly thought of himself. He waved his hand. “Okay, you can go in.”Kai turned his head and asked in surprise, “Aren’t you coming in, Uncle Leo?”Leo shook his head. “I... won’t go in.”Kai didn’t insist and pushed the door open to the ward.The ward was so quiet that it made people feel uncomfortable. Kai looked at Ella lying on the hospital bed, wrapped in bandages and wearing a ventilator. Even though he had prepared himself mentally, he couldn’t help the sourness in his eyes.“Mom…”“It’s all my fault.”“I should have noticed something was wrong earlier and come to see you earlier.”Kai gritted his teeth. Tears finally slipped down his pale face, but he wiped them away the next second. He was already a little man and couldn’t be so weak.“Mom, don’t worry.

    Fortunately, Leo didn’t ask for anything else after hearing that."What’s the matter?" he asked.Edwin immediately replied, "Mr. Quinn already knows about the situation in Fairfield. He’s very satisfied with Young Master’s intelligence and decisiveness, so he specifically asked me to inform you to come home this weekend.""Go home?" Leo’s lips curled up, repeating the two words. Edwin recalled what Mr. Quinn had said on the phone today and looked at the man beside him, with a hint of flattery in his expression. " Young Master Leo has been in the hospital all day. He probably doesn’t know that Lucas is critically injured and his life is in danger. When the news came out, the Apex Corp was in chaos.""Speaking of which, we should thank Mrs. Montgomery. If she hadn’t kidnapped Miss Lila's child and angered Lucas, she wouldn’t have been kicked out of the board of directors by Lucas, and things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly for us today."Leo glanced at him."What, has my father already

    Dan smirked, "We all care about your situation, Dr. Leo, not just anyone else." Leo smiled and didn’t say anything else. After driving into the garage, he was about to get out of the car when his phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, his gentle expression immediately turned cold. He lowered his eyes for a few seconds before answering, "Dad?" "Did you have something to do with Edwin's death?" The voice on the phone was imposing, with a natural sense of oppression. Leo’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was tinged with a hint of doubt. "Vice President Edwin? What happened to him?" There was a pause on the other end of the phone, as if judging the truthfulness of Leo’s words. After a while, the voice said calmly, "He was killed last night." "Vice President Edwin is dead?" Leo's tone was slightly surprised, but he quickly regained his composure. "Have you found out who did it?" There was silence on the other end of the phone again. "We're still investigating. Is every

    Amy’s face twisted in frustration. It wasn’t the first time she’d been insulted by Leo, but this was different. She had just suffered humiliation that made Leo’s sharp words feel like a mere irritation. And now, she had to hold it together, even when every nerve in her body screamed for retaliation.She inhaled deeply, controlling the rising tide of anger. "Mr. Leo," she said, forcing a smile through clenched teeth. "You should know that no one stays down forever. If you're willing to help us this time, we’ll repay you a hundredfold. Our family has always been grateful to those who lend us a hand."Leo's eyes gleamed with amusement, and he leaned back in his chair. "Repay me?" he chuckled darkly. "What can you repay me with? Money? Or your body that has already deformed after giving birth?"Amy’s blood boiled at his words, her face flushing a deep red. Was he really going to stoop this low? But she had no time to waste on her pride. With her family's future on the line, she couldn

    Leo tried to downplay Ella’s injuries as much as possible, but the fact that she still hadn’t woken up was a cause for concern. Despite Jenna worries, she ultimately chose not to impulsively return home, taking into consideration Kaia’s emotional state, after being persuaded by Leo and Amelia.After hanging up the phone, Leo looked down at the woman lying in the bed and let out a sigh. "I wanted you to wake up and see how the Montgomery family is slowly falling apart, but I don’t have the patience to watch those who hurt you continue to thrive.""Ella, you understand me, right?" Leo said, waiting for a response that only came in the form of the mechanical beeping of the machines beside the bed."If you don’t speak, I’ll take it as a yes," he said, feeling a bit childish after saying it. He chuckled and leaned down to kiss her hand, which was wrapped in bandages.Knock knock-There was a knock at the door, and Leo turned to see that it was the security guard. "Dr. Leo, a Miss Lopez

    Los Angeles, USA.Jenna had been waiting under the scorching sun all day, finally getting her shot and finishing her two lines as the vase character. As she got into the nanny car, Amelia, who was looking at her phone, suddenly looked up and gazed at Jenna.Jenna was confused, "What's wrong, Amelia?"With a glance, she saw that Amelia's phone screen was lit up, as if she was scrolling through Instagram. Jenna immediately straightened up, "Amelia, don't worry, I've been waiting obediently on set these past few days, I haven't messed around with any men, I haven't bullied anyone, and I haven't caused any trouble...""Okay, okay, that's enough!" Amelia interrupted her, "It's not about you.""Huh? Did I trend on social media? Then why are you looking at me like that?"Amelia sighed, "I'm just glad that you advised me to sell my shares in the Montgomery Group earlier."As soon as Jenna heard the words "Montgomery Group," she became alert, "What do you mean, Amelia? Tell me more."Seeing
