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
The patient's condition stabilized with Ember's rescue efforts. Then, she asked, "Are you still not going to admit that you are working under someone?"The man hesitated for a while and then admitted, "Dr. Sanders, I'm sorry. It's true that I accepted someone's money."Ember did not pursue the matter. "Rest well."She left after saying those words.The man felt a little guilty. He had hurt Ember for money, yet she still directed all her efforts into saving his life.Ember returned to the office and asked Lugh to investigate the matter.Overwhelmed by guilt, the patient planned to do a live stream to clear up the misunderstanding.As soon as the live stream started, many netizens joined the chat room, eager to know the follow-up.The bullet comments were all over the screen."I started the live stream just to clarify one thing. All the bad remarks about Dr. Sanders on the Internet are untrue."The puzzled netizens posted bullet comments one after another.[What's going on? Di
As he stared at Allen beside him, Caleb arched a brow while saying coldly, "Since the Fergusons are so impatient, let's teach them a lesson!"Allen replied respectfully, "Yes, sir."Since they dared to hurt Ember, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless.Then, Caleb's voice rang again. "I want you to the contact the bosses who are cooperating with Ferguson Corp in secret and disrupt their cooperation no matter what the cost."Now that he had a turnover of funds, he was no longer under any restraints.After receiving the order, Allen quickly left and went to meet the bosses secretly.Allen was decisive like Caleb and got straight to the point. "Everyone, Mr. Lane wants to cooperate with you, but he has a small request."The presidents looked at each other, not knowing what he got up his sleeve.Lane Group was a partner that many people scrambled to cooperate with. Why did their president suddenly want to cooperate with them?A confused middle-aged man said, "I wonder what y
After Lugh got Ember and Avery into his car, he said, "Ember, you have been quite tense recently due to many troubles. Let's go to the temple and relax this time."Ember's eyes smiled as she turned to look at him and replied, "Thank you."After the two of them finished burning incense, Lugh looked at the fortune teller beside them and said, "It is said that this fortune teller is accurate in divination. Why don't we have our fortune told?"The thing was, Ember was not superstitious. She hesitated, thinking if she should refuse his offer.Just then, she heard Avery's coaxing voice. "Mommy, you finally came out to get some fresh air. Why don't you and Uncle Lugh go and have your fortune told?"Ember couldn't argue with him, so she gently pinched his chubby cheek."Miss, hold out your right hand and let me read your palm."After looking at it, the fortune teller said, "Miss, your career will be smooth sailing, but you will have a rocky relationship."The fortune teller continued,
Ember searched around the first floor, but there was no sign of Avery.She was instantly devastated, and her eyes brimmed with tears. She couldn't imagine what would happen if she were to lose Avery again. He might not be as lucky as he was last time.She suddenly remembered something and hurried to the guardhouse to check the surveillance footage.The surveillance footage showed that Avery had gone out and gotten into a cab.Ember paused the surveillance footage, feeling a little anxious.The security guard comforted her. "Miss, calm down. He got into a cab. Could he have gone to a relative's house?"Ember was overwrought as she thanked the security guard.After pondering for a moment, she frowned and hurriedly took out her phone to call Caleb, but she couldn't get through. She suddenly remembered Avery's smartwatch and called him.After Avery picked up the call, Ember hurriedly asked, "Avery, where are you now? I was worried sick."Avery coughed twice before he spoke weakly,
Ember sneered and said nothing.When Caleb saw her get emotional, he lowered his voice. "Em, I wasn't trying to take Avery away from you. I was just—"Ember didn't want to listen to his excuses anymore. Before Caleb finished speaking, she interrupted him, "Stop explaining. Since Avery is willing to be with you, then he can stay here."Things had gotten out of control. Avery wrinkled his nose with an indignant look and said in a choked voice, "Mommy, I was wrong. Please don't abandon me..."Ember shot Avery a dirty look before she slammed the door and left.After Ember left, the dispirited Avery sat on the sofa.He didn't expect things to come to this point. Now, everything he and Caleb had done was in vain.He just wanted his parents to be together. Why was it so difficult?Just then, Penelope came to Caleb for help because of Ferguson Corp.Avery was a little surprised to see her. He then rolled his eyes, pretended to be overjoyed and asked excitedly, "Aunt Penelope, what bri
Before Penelope could explain herself, Avery wiped off his tears and said aggrievedly, "Daddy, I won't allow you to find me a stepmom. Boohoo... I hate Aunt Penelope!"Penelope didn't expect that a child would make a fool of her. She suppressed the anger in her heart and comforted him. "Avery, it's my fault. I will take you to the amusement park, okay?"Caleb didn't believe her and refused her offer outright. "That won't be necessary. You should go home. I will take care of Avery."She clenched her fists as she was reluctant to leave. Ember and her son were the stumbling blocks that prevented her from marrying into the Lane family!Avery, sitting by the window, stopped crying when he heard the word "amusement park" and asked, "Really? Aunt Penelope, are you going to take me out to have fun?""Of course, I will take you anywhere if you want to." Penelope was planning on teaching him a lesson with a scheme in her mind.Shortly after that, Avery packed up his things and went out wit
Just then, a group of onlookers gathered around the lake.An old man snorted and said sternly, "Miss, you mustn't conduct immoral misdeeds. You obviously tried to push the kid just now, but you fell into the lake because you didn't expect that he would suddenly stand up."Penelope grimaced as she didn't expect that someone would see through her.A group of people gossiped behind Penelope's back. "This lady looks quite pretty, but why is she so evil? What if the child fell into the deep lake and drowned?"No one cared about Penelope. She floundered about in the lake for a long time.It was then that the bodyguard realized something was wrong and got Penelope out of the water.She looked miserable with dripping wet hair stuck to her face. Penelope hugged her shivering body and shot him a hostile glance. "Where did a hooligan like you come from? How dare you touch me!""Miss, you look like a rich lady in this outfit, but why are you so malicious? He was the one who rescued you j
