However, Caleb still had to settle the score with Penelope.It was already noon when Ember woke up. Feeling sore all over, she got up with a frown and saw Caleb giving her a meaningful look.Ember knitted her brows as she threw the pillow at him and cursed, "Caleb, you scoundrel! You took advantage of me! Penelope loves you so much. Why didn't you go to her?"She was furious, but she didn't know where to put herself when she thought about what happened last night.On the other hand, Caleb seemed fine, as if he didn't remember the ridiculous thing he did last night.That man was a shameless and indecent bastard!"Em, we have been married for a long time. Why do you still find it embarrassing?"Ember's face darkened as she retorted with a sneer, "I'm not married to you! Get out!"Caleb walked out of the room upon seeing her in a bad mood.After she got dressed, she left Caleb's house.Ember had to admit that she was unlucky about what happened last night. She decided to treat t
Penelope looked at Nick in disbelief. After shaking her head, she cried out bitterly, "Nick, who is your friend? Ember or me? Why do you all prefer her? What did I do wrong? What did my dad do wrong?"Nick looked at her crazed expression, as if she was a madwoman.Then, he replied, "Sorry, I can't help you."With that, he stood up and left without the slightest regard for her feelings.Overcome by emotion, Penelope stood up and knocked over the glass on the coffee table.The huge commotion over here attracted the attention of many onlookers, and they all scowled at her.Just then, a waiter came out of the coffee shop and said respectfully, "Excuse me, miss. You have to pay for the damaged item."Penelope grimaced as took out a few banknotes from her bag. She then threw them at the waiter's face before she left with a huff.To think that a mere waiter dared to kick her when she was down! Even though Ferguson Corp had temporarily fallen from grace, it didn't mean that anyone coul
"Ember Sanders! This is all your fault! You are a vicious woman! Why don't you just die?"Then, Penelope pretended to be pitiful and continued, "Ferguson Corp is about to go bankrupt. I deserve to be admonished for ruining my father's life work. If I die, it will be all your fault!"Ember really couldn't understand what she was up to."Penelope, you should reflect on your own mistakes! You brought this upon yourself, didn't you? Why are you acting pitiful here?"She dared to say those words because she was sure that Penelope would certainly not kill herself.Some netizens sympathized with Penelope.[Oh gosh, does Ember have any sympathy? She had the audacity to say that to Penelope while she was emotionally devastated.][Seriously, she should have calmed Penelope down first!]-When Penelope saw all the netizens were supporting her with the bullet comments, she started to pretend to be aggrieved. "Not only has Ember stolen Caleb from me, but she also abused the children in the
Ember saw the man's lackadaisical appearance. He didn't look like he was here to see a doctor; in fact, he seemed to be here just for fun.She frowned slightly, looking a little unhappy. "What brings you here today?"The man stammered for a long time, but couldn't mention his symptoms.Finally, he said nonchalantly, "Dr. Sanders, I have been having an upset stomach recently. Can you examine me?"Ember reached out and placed the phone in his hand on the table before replying, "If you are really here to see a doctor, I will be happy to examine you. Please go back if you are here to live-stream me."As soon as the man heard what she said, he became upset and snorted. "Quit acting noble. Your monthly salary is only a fraction of the money I make in a day! How dare you drive me away! I won't leave today. What can you do to me?"Ember was a little impatient. She held back her temper and stated the facts, "Sir, many patients are lining up outside. Don't delay the others from getting tre
Caleb had achieved his goal, but netizens misunderstood their relationship as a result. This was not what Ember wanted.Just then, a young nurse walked in with a bouquet of roses in her hand and teased, "Dr. Sanders, I didn't know you had such a gorgeous husband. He's been sending you the flowers for half a month. I really envy you."Ember was frustrated. Not only had the netizens misunderstand their relationship, but even her colleagues in the hospital misunderstood them.However, the nurse didn't believe her explanation.After looking at the bouquet of roses, Ember waved her hand and asked the nurse to put it aside. She treated it like it were plague.Saint Lucia Convent became famous because of this incident.Many baby girls had appeared in front of the all-girls school in the past few days, giving the staff a headache.The staff called Ember and told her about what happened, "Six baby girls have appeared now. What should we do now?"Ember held her forehead and sighed. "Sett
Lugh was broken-hearted when he saw how busy Ember was. She was already exhausted at the hospital, and now she had to worry about the matters at the all-girls school.Unlike young children, someone had to watch over the babies at all times. Otherwise, a mishap may occur due to negligence.The other three teachers were so busy that they didn't even get to eat throughout the day.One of the teachers smiled and said, "How wonderful, Ms. Sanders. The babies neither cry nor make noises with your presence."Ember looked at their tired looks and nodded slightly. "You all should go and eat dinner. I'll stay here and take care of the babies."Lugh thought that this was not a good idea to go on like this, so he called Maeve."Ms. Knight, I need the surveillance footage for Ember's office corridor around ten o'clock this morning."Maeve learned about what happened at Saint Lucia Convent in the past few days. Soon, she copied the surveillance footage and sent it to him.Lugh saw a fully-co
Ember had been busy traveling between the hospital and the all-girls school in the past few days and was unable to take care of Avery for a while.Avery was aware of the commotion online and knew that his mother was trying to take care of those baby girls.When he finally saw Ember, he asked sweetly, "Mommy, can you take me to school with you today? I want to take care of the younger children too. I'm bored of staying alone at home."Ember stroked his face as she replied, "Okay, I will take you there today."At the all-girls school, Avery curiously stood up next to the cribs and looked at the baby girls. He then looked at Ember and said, "Mommy, the babies are so cute. I want a little sister too."His innocent words startled Ember. She then raised her hand, stroked his fluffy hair and coaxed him with a smile, "If you like the babies so much, you can come to school with me every day to see them, okay?"Avery quickly pouted when Ember did not agree to his request. Looking a little
It happened to be the weekend the next day. Caleb followed Avery's advice and took him to the all-girls school on time every day. He even gave Ember gifts in different ways.On the first day, Caleb brought Ember's favorite meal. Later, he noticed that there were many employees and thoughtfully brought delicious meals to everyone.He just wanted to win her heart through everyone's gossip and the sense of atmosphere.He didn't believe that Lugh would continue staying here.Most of the teachers who came this time shipped Ember and Caleb online. They had no idea about the intricate relationship between the two of them.They all joked, "Wow, Ember! You are so lucky to have a loving husband. We envy you so much."Ember smiled faintly and cast a cold glance at Caleb, as if trying to warn him to stop.Caleb pretended not to notice her and said, "Everyone, good job."Just then, Avery noticed that Ember was a little upset. He held her hand and said with a smile, "Mommy, Daddy is doing th
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? Tell me!"The unwavering nurse stood by her initial statement."No o
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. She raised her head and replied in a choked voice,
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. We are going to ex
Valerie's words touched Carrie. She packed their clothes and left with Caleb and Ember.Ember asked Valerie and got them a room next to Jamie's ward.Jamie looked awkward when she saw Valerie."Mommy, who is she?"Ember rubbed Jamie's head and answered gently."Jamie, her name is Valerie. 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. She was attracted by Jamie's politeness."Hi, Jamie."Jamie and Valerie started talking. Children's friendship was simple. Ember got them many toys to play with.She tried to treat Valerie's illness but to no avail.The cancer cells had spread to the surrounding organs. The best Ember could do was decrease Valerie's suffering as much as she could.Valerie was very sensible. She gritted her teeth and endured the when it hurt.Jamie noticed that after having a similar experience.Sh
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. They wondered what they could do for Valerie.Suddenly, Duncan rushed in and said, "Don't mind if I do, then. You can have all my da
Then Carrie looked at Duncan again and cursed, "Duncan, I'll make sure you won't have any more children if you take the money. 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? Let me take you to the hospital."Valerie thanked her sweetly and helped Carrie get up, "It's alright. Thank you, miss."Carrie hurriedl
