Maeve had not checked this batch of surgical equipment yet. When she saw Ember's determined expression, she nodded and said seriously, "Okay, I'll check them right away."

At Ember's reminder, Maeve ditched what she was doing and checked on the equipment right away.

After that, Ember returned to her office and worked on the patient's medical records.

As soon as Ember sat down, a nurse barged into her office and began shouting, "Dr. Sanders, hurry! Something's wrong with the patient in Ward No. 3!"

"What happened?"

Ember had a bad feeling about that. The patient in Ward No. 3 was the one she had operated on in the morning. As far as she knew, the operation was successful.

"I don't know, Dr. Sanders! Hurry!"

The nurse then led Ember to Ward No. 3.

When Ember reached the ward, she saw the patient shaking violently. She quickly ran to the patient.

"Doctor, what happened to my husband?" The patient's wife was very panicked.

Ember did not answer her. Her attention was on the patien

    Ember knew such a careless mistake would tarnish the reputation of Haverhill Hospital if revealed to the public."Ding!"Maeve and Ember had just reached Maeve's office when the former's phone blared loudly.She tapped on the screen and was stunned when she saw the message."Dr. Sanders, look!"Maeve covered her mouth, clearly shocked. She looked at Ember and turned the screen slowly toward her.Someone had posted the incident online."They're so irresponsible! How could they use defective equipment?""Not this doctor again! This isn't her first offense since she worked at Haverhill Hospital!"…Discussions were abuzz under the post. Many were cursing Ember and her family. Ember ignored those comments and turned off the phone."Dr. Sanders, It's my mistake. I should have inspected the equipment properly."Maeve blamed herself for being careless, but she had no idea how to solve the crisis."Take it easy. It's not over yet. Someone's behind this. I'm calling the police."

    "Ah, I get it."They chatted some more before Caleb took his leave.Caleb called Ember immediately after he left the hospital.A moment's hesitation later, Ember finally answered the call."Do you have time tonight? Why don't you join me and Avery for dinner?"Caleb didn't want to bring up the equipment incident, but Ember decided to talk about it nonetheless. "Do you know what happened at the hospital? It's strange. Maeve said the staff in charge was careless, but why hasn't this happened in so many years? It doesn't make sense.""Yeah." Caleb felt the same, but he didn't tell Ember anything at first as he didn't want to offend her."Don't you want to find out the truth? Meet me at Happy Restaurant at noon. I'll let you know my plan."It was an opportunity for Caleb to ask Ember out. He also wanted to investigate this incident as he'd be involved in a project with Haverhill Hospital in the future.Ember arrived at Happy Restaurant at noon.Caleb noticed her when she entere

    Caleb cast a quick look in Ember's direction and nodded. "Got it. You may leave now."He decided to comply with Ember's wish, so he waved his hand and let Zane go."Thank you, Mr. Lane!" After bowing in a hurry, Zane quickly disappeared from their line of sight."You should know who it is, right?" Ember raised her head and looked at Caleb.She saw Caleb nod. It seemed that he had an inkling of who the perpetrator was."It's related to the Fergusons," Caleb spoke slowly.Ember remained silent, indicating her acquiescence.She had guessed that it was related to the Fergusons, but there was no evidence. Now, the truth of the matter slowly surfaced with Zane's appearance."You should deal with that admirer of yours," she remarked.After that, Ember picked up her bag and left without looking back.Caleb knew in his heart that the admirer Ember was talking about was Penelope.As Caleb watched Ember's figure disappear, he picked up his phone and called his assistant. "Terminate a

    "If you don't want to visit them, I'll go on your behalf. I'll contact Ember to find out if those children need anything else. After that,I'll bring the items over."Nick came to the company this time to discuss the children's welfare with Caleb. Since Caleb didn't care about the children, he had to make his own decision."You don't have to do so. I'll contact her and find time to visit them."Nick had a feeling that Caleb was jealous.He smiled, not expecting Caleb to be jealous of him. He didn't mind as he didn't harbor any feelings for Ember anyway.The office fell into a brief silence. Penelope knew that now was the perfect time for her to speak up.She carefully walked up to Caleb and asked him softly, "Caleb, why did you sever the business ties with our family?"Caleb still regarded her as an invisible existence.When Nick learned the news, he quickly jumped up from the couch and asked, "Huh? Caleb, did the Lanes sever business ties with the Fergusons? Wasn't the business

    "You know what he's like. He'll be fine in a few days." Nick didn't know what else to say, so he kept comforting Penelope."Can you ask Ms. Sanders if she is still angry with me when you have time? I can apologize to her. If I hadn't talked to her, I wouldn't have fallen into the water because of her. Caleb wouldn't have gotten angry as a result."Penelope wiped her tears away while looking sincere. Nick had no idea that she was faking it the whole time.Nick couldn't bear to see Penelope in this state, so he said, "Take it easy and don't cry. Caleb will resume cooperation with your family when he figures it out. Don't worry.""I've talked to Ember before. She might be assertive, but she doesn't bear any ill intentions toward you. You have to try to accept her. After all, Caleb has chosen her." Nick said those things just so he could wake Penelope up from her delusions.Upon hearing those words, Penelope was about to explode with anger. She didn't expect that Nick would speak up

    Caleb rejected Nick's invitation on the spot. He was busy with too many matters recently and had no time to attend the party."You've extended your marriage with Ember, so why don't you bring her out and introduce her to our friends? Besides, it's been a long time since we've had a gathering. Don't you think it's time for us to meet up?"Nick knew that Caleb would naturally accept the invitation as soon as he mentioned Ember.Upon hearing what Nick said, Caleb suddenly thought that he could gradually expose Ember to his social circle, which was a good thing."Alright, I'll take Em there, then."As a result, he accepted the invitation with a change of attitude.When Nick heard Caleb's reply, he hung up the phone while feeling satisfied.In the evening, Caleb wanted to return to Lane's Manor to visit his grandmother after finishing work.However, Ember's car was parked in front of the house.Caleb knew that Ember was probably here to visit Avery, or else she would not have come

    Avery obediently opened his mouth and ate the vegetable. "See, I told you Avery is not a picky eater."Caleb finished those words with a prideful look on his face. He sounded as though Avery was not picky about food because of what he said.Ember, who had seen through Caleb, rolled her eyes at him and Avery. "Avery, you can't turn on me!""Mommy, I won't turn on you ever."Having said that, Avery's body unconsciously moved closer to Caleb.After that, both Caleb and Avery laughed in unison. Ember also showed a smile.Eva watched this happy scene.She was delighted to see the trio looking so happy. This made her feel a lot better.In the evening, Eva stopped Ember from leaving the manor. She wanted to discuss something with her."Ember, why don't you consider moving in?""Grandma, I don't think that's a good idea. I have my own place to stay."Ember and Caleb were no longer legally married. She didn't plan to move back into the manor and thought of it as inappropriate for h

    "I'm not going!" Ember was worried that Caleb would have a card up his sleeve, so she firmly refused him.No matter what Caleb said, she just refused him. Despite being married for so many years, she didn't know Caleb's friends at all. It was only natural that she didn't want to attend the party.In the end, Caleb failed to dissuade Ember and had no choice but to let her go home.Helpless, Caleb called Nick and complained, "I've said all the nice things, but Em refused to attend the party with me. Can you think of a way?""Haha! Isn't this your own choice?" Nick couldn't help but scoff at Caleb's helpless tone."I didn't call you so that you could laugh at me! Hurry up and give me some ideas!"Caleb didn't expect that his friend would scoff at him immediately."She is your woman, not mine. What else can I do?"Nick couldn't do anything about Ember as she was different from ordinary women.Caleb called Nick for some ideas at first, but he couldn't do anything about the situatio

    He was an arrogant man by nature. Now that he was upset, it was only natural for him to blame Caleb and Ember."Caleb, Ember, when I rise again, I will never spare you two!"Initially, these were words to himself, but he had not anticipated that they would be picked up by someone else."Fine, then we'll wait and see. However, you'd better think about how you're going to escape today."Henry looked around, surprised to see dozens of pairs of eyes.His voice trembled, and he attempted to reach into his coat for a weapon.He had just begun to move when he saw a corpse being thrown in his direction by Caleb's men."Do you think you still have a chance of escaping? No amount of weaponry will help."Henry was astonished when he peered down and saw his man."Are you going to come with us on your own accord today, or am I going to give you a straight up pain in the ass?"Henry's palm tightened into a fist, indicating that he did not want to choose either option."I don't want to go

    "Alright, tell me who the mastermind is in exchange for sparing your mother. My patience is wearing thin."The nurse averted her gaze with a hesitant look on her face."I've already told you that no one ordered me behind the scenes. If you don't believe me, there is nothing I can do about it."Ember realized that she couldn't make the nurse give in with mere words, so she increased her bargaining chip.She opened up a picture on her phone and asked, "You are familiar with this thing, aren't you?"After taking a clear look at the picture, the nurse was a little confused about what Ember was going to do."I admit that I used this drug to kill your mother. You can take revenge on me however you want.""No, it seems that the mastermind didn't tell you the effect of this drug. This drug has been developed to cure vegetative patients. My mother gradually got better after taking it."The nurse's eyes brightened. She asked with a pleading look in her eyes,"Do you mean my mother can g

    Jamie placed her hand gently on her heart."Will Valerie be with me forever?""Of course."After a great deal of persuasion, Jamie finally stopped crying. She even readily cooperated in the treatment and apologized to Ember."Mommy, I'm sorry. I was rude to you just now."Ember couldn't bear to blame Jamie upon noticing how sensible she was."Silly girl, you are my daughter. How could I possibly blame you?"Good girl, let's go see Valerie together when you get better.""Okay."After leaving Jamie in Carrie's care, Ember left with peace of mind. She had to attend to an important matter now.Caleb had already told Ember everything, she couldn't wait to meet her mother's murderer after learning that she had been captured.Caleb planned to leave the decision in her hands this time.When Ember saw the nurse who gave her many sleepless nights, she rushed forward and grabbed her collar."Who is the mastermind?

    The nurse gritted her teeth, unwilling to say anything.Caleb didn't expect to worm any information out of her, so he waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to take her away.What mattered most to him now was to wait for Jamie.Not long after he arrived at the door to the operating room, he heard good news from the inside.The operation was successful. Next, they had to observe Jamie's condition.Jamie would be fine as long as her body didn't show any signs of rejecting the heart.Caleb felt heartbroken when he looked at the pale Jamie lying on the hospital bed.Fortunately, Jamie was finally getting better.Much to everyone's surprise, Jamie didn't make any noise after she woke up.She didn't say a word and just lay there like a rag doll.Distressed, Ember looked at her daughter and said, "Jamie, I will take you to see Valerie after your recovery, okay?"For the first time, Jamie's eyes were filled with mixed emotions.

    At the mention of the surveillance footage, the nurse hurriedly clapped her hands and said,"You're right. How could I forget the most important surveillance footage?"While speaking, she was about to turn around and go to the security room to check the surveillance footage, but Caleb stopped her."I'll go there. You should go to the operating room and see if you can be of any help."With that, he turned around and left.The nurse returned to the operating room for the time being and told Ember everything, reassuring her.Caleb led his subordinates to the security room and checked the surveillance footage.Shortly afterwards, his eyes darkened at the sight of a familiar figure.His subordinates soon exclaimed when they discovered that it was the very same nurse who had killed Mia in the hospital last time."We never found her. It turns out that she has fled back to Frissia."Caleb had run out of patience as his lips curled into a sneer."Catch her immediately! You have twenty

    Jamie went out to pluck flowers for Valerie. There were many beautiful flowers in the back garden, so Jamie wanted to bring them to her in person.To her surprise, the hospital bed was empty when she returned to the ward.Jamie panicked and subconsciously ran in the direction of a nurse who was looking for her.She couldn't believe her ears when she heard the answer."I'm going to find Valerie. Miss, please get out of the way."The nurs,e who had been looking after the two children, knew that they were good friends.Witnessing the scene, the nurse felt helpless with a lump in her throat."Let's find Valerie later. Jamie, can you come with us now?"Jamie had vaguely guessed the answer, but still she stubbornly refused to give up."No way. I have to wait here for Valerie. She wants to see the flowers I've plucked."The nurse couldn't do anything about Jamie. When she was at her wit's end, Lugh appeared.He knelt down and spoke softly, "Be a good girl, Jamie.

She'll stay here for a while. Get along well with her, okay?"Jamie blinked, curious about the stranger in front of her."Hi, Valerie."Valerie had not talked to kids her age for a long time due to her health.

    Ember and Caleb looked at each other when they heard Valerie. They could not imagine how difficult her life was that made her so mature.Carrie was comforted after a while, wiped away her tears, and spoke with choked sobs."It was my daughter's decision. I'm glad she could help your daughter."They did not act superior even though Ember and Caleb were receiving their favor.Carrie felt so distressed that she could hardly breathe when she thought of Valerie, who would die in a few months.Ember was moved. "We're here to express our gratitude. Please let us know if there's anything we could help."She wanted to make it up to them.Fortunately, they did not feel offended but refused to ask for compensation."We're not doing this to get anything in return. I only hope my organs can save lives. That's my only wish."Ember and Caleb felt so impressed.

You'll be alone for the rest of your life."Duncan became furious when he heard that."Bitch! I've been too nice to you just now. I don't mind telling you what it takes to challenge me! You want to die with this trash, right? As you wish!"Someone grabbed his hand when he took a rope and moved toward them."Don't you dare!"Duncan was stunned and felt annoyed. "Stay away from my business! Everyone in this village knows who I am! Get lost!"As he spoke, he turned his head and saw two beautiful figures.In just an instant, he was deeply attracted by Ember's beauty and stunned.Caleb could not stand such a vulgar person, so he beat Duncan to the ground.Ember walked to Carrie and Valerie at that moment."Are you okay?
