Ember said, "Avery, I'm going to your great grandmother's house. Something happened to her. Can you stay at home alone? I promise I'll be back soon."

"Don't worry, Mommy. I'll be fine."

Ember was worried. After leaving the house, she flagged down a cab and headed to Lane Manor.

She frowned when she glanced at the watch. Then, she turned to look at the driver. "Faster, please."

The driver glanced in the rearview mirror. He guessed that Ember must be in a hurry after spotting her nervous expression.

The driver stepped on the gas pedal. They arrived at the destination in ten minutes instead of the usual twenty minutes.

Upon reaching Lane Manor, Ember checked on Eva.

"Hurry and call an ambulance!"

Eva had already passed out. If Ember did not seize the time for treatment, Eva might lose her life.

The servant was in a hurry and anxious.

Caleb rushed back in time.

Seeing Eva had passed out, he quickly picked her up.

Caleb looked tired after dealing with the scandal and looked for

    Annoyed, Caleb said indifferently, "Penelope, you should leave now. Take him with you."Penelope was offended. Caleb was gentle when he talked to Ember, yet he sounded so cold and distant when he talked to Penelope. She clenched her fists tightly while glaring at Ember.Ember did not say anything. She put the medicine on the chair and left after waving at them.Caleb warned furiously, "Penelope, please behave and stay away from me."He turned around to go after Ember.Suddenly, Caleb's vision went dark. He then fainted.Penelope reacted quickly by catching him in her arms. She muttered, "Caleb, stay with me..."At the same time, Ember came back to get something and witnessed the scene.Anxiety took over her for a split second, but she soon calmed down.Penelope cradled Caleb's face affectionately while looking at Ember like a winner.Dull pain spread from Ember's heart at that moment. She turned and left.Penelope was overjoyed to see Ember looking so deflated."Dr. N, wh

    Caleb went to Maeve's office after he reached Haverhill Hospital, "Ms. Knight, I want Dr. Sanders to take my case."Maeve frowned, still holding her pen. Then, she smiled. "Mr. Lane, it's not my call. Dr. Sanders's famous, you know. She has many patients to take care of. Let me ask if she has time to take your case."Caleb got her prevarication and nodded, "Okay."Maeve left and went to Ember's office.Ember was prescribing medicine for a patient. She was stunned when she raised her head and saw Maeve."Take this and go to the pharmacy."After the patient left, Maeve stated, "Caleb came to me just now and wanted you to take his case."Ember felt ridiculous when she thought of the scene when Caleb fell into Penelope's arms.Did the fake Dr. N disappoint Caleb? He should be enough to take care of him, after all."Sorry, Ms. Knight. I'm busy. I don't have time for his case."Caleb leaned against the door frame with his head tilted as he gazed at Ember. He asked, "Are you not e

    Ember knew she couldn't get her point across to an idiot like Penelope.She stood up and walked over to the fake Dr. N. A sneer traced her lips as she spat out, "We'll know soon. How about another test, Dr. N?"Last time, Eva's symptoms were visible. This fake Dr. N knew modern medicine.This time, Ember decided to try the alternative way. The actual Dr. N should be an expert in both.Panic flashed across Dr. N's eyes at that moment. His eyes darted everywhere before he glanced at Penelope.Penelope sneered back in disdain. "Excuse me? Dr. N has proved himself. You can't change anything with another attempt. Dr. N is ready for all challenges."Dr. N was amazed by Penelope's stupidity. Was she blind? He never said that. There was even a trace of reluctance in his eyes.Still, he put on a confident façade. "It's not too late to give up."Ember smacked her lips before asking, "Don't you feel guilty when you say that?"This time, they had to tell the health condition of a patient.

    Ember smiled at the fake Dr. N coldly. "You can ask the patient if I'm right."Dr. N averted his gaze while shooting back, "How do I know if she'd tell the truth? You're doing this to stop me from becoming Mr. Lane's doctor!"Ember continued sneering. What an idiot."You don't have to provoke me. That panicked look of yours tell everything."The patient clicked her tongue and complained, "Is he supposed to be the best doctor? I would probably be dead now if I were extremely ill."Penelope was embarrassed. She felt like a clown. Caleb, who returned from shopping, saw them arguing.He frowned while glancing at Penelope in a hostile manner. "What's going on?"Penelope was at a loss for what to do. Her palms soon turned clammy from sweat.Ember curled her lips coldly, feeling quite ironic.She was cold and distant when she spoke. "Ms. Ferguson, you should be grateful this so-called Dr. N is a poor actor. Could you even bear the consequences if Grandma's condition worsened?"Dr.

    Penelope unconsciously gripped her handbag and shot Ember a dirty look before walking out."Em, everyone here has witnessed your medical skills. I have never believed in Penelope anyway. Rest assured I will leave my grandmother to you for her treatment."Caleb stared intently into Ember's eyes while looking affectionate.However, Ember did not believe any of these deceitful words.She sat calmly on the office chair, looking as cool as a cucumber. As if she was talking to a stranger, she said, "Ms. Ferguson said something went wrong with the medicine I prescribed your grandmother. I don't want to be accused of being a murderer."With that, Ember turned around and left the office.In the director's office, Maeve praised, "Dr. Sanders, you didn't let us down with your medical skills as expected."In the match just now, Ember knew exactly what was wrong with the patient right after feeling her pulse.It was difficult to determine the patient's condition just by feeling the pulse, l

    Hank hired a man later. Holding a cigarette between his fingers, he slowly blew out a smoke ring and stared at the man for a while.The man sold himself hard and said flatteringly, "Mr. Ferguson, I am a good actor, you can rest assured."The man looked like a scoundrel, which was exactly what Hank needed."Very well! I promise to give you every penny if you manage to work it out this time!"When the man heard those words, he grinned ear to ear and said "yes" repeatedly.Penelope looked at Hank with admiration as she said, "Dad, you're the best."As expected, the older people were wiser. She felt happy and thought about her plan.If the plan worked out this time, there was a chance that no one in the medical field would dare to employ Ember in the future.Hank snorted. "How can someone bully my daughter easily?"Penelope showed a meaningful smile.If it weren't for Ember, she would have become Caleb's wife a long time ago.Caleb kept her hanging about marrying her because of

    "Sir, please calm down. I will help you..."Before Ember could finish talking, the man grabbed the pen holder on the desk and threw it at her.The pen holder hit her right on the forehead as she was unable to dodge it in time.Ember inhaled sharply. Ignoring the pain on her forehead, she hurriedly calmed him down."I know you are devastated now, but don't mope over it. Trust me, I'm going to cure you."Regardless of Ember's explanation, the man refused to believe her and kept making a scene in the office."I don't care! You are just a quack. Many patients came to you because of your reputation. Is this how you treat us? You have to give me an explanation, or else I won't leave!"Just then, a group of rubbernecking patients had gathered outside the office."Sir, I understand how you feel right now, but there are many patients waiting outside. I can't treat you if you act like this."The patients outside the office were a little dissatisfied and urged, "What are you doing? Many

    Ember rushed forward and held the man's hand, trying to snatch the glass shard from his hand.As if he had anticipated this result, the man pushed Ember away and roared, "Get lost! You are nothing but a quack! No one else is here, so just drop the act already!"He was emotional, so Ember did not dare to act rashly.She tried to calm him down. "Take it easy. Things haven't reached that point as you imagined. Please believe me."A trace of hesitation flashed across the man's eyes. Ember took the opportunity to grab the man's wrist and snatch the glass shard from his hand.The quick-witted man refused to let go of the glass shard, as if he didn't see the blood running down his hand.Ember successfully snatched away the glass shard from him, but her hand got cut in the process. Blood flowed out of her wound as a result.Fortunately, Ember had snatched the glass shard from his hand in time, or else the consequences would be unimaginable.Ember had a doubt in her mind and sensed some

    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

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.

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!
