Lugh shook his head helplessly. "Ember, it's not your fault. I'm not a celebrity. It won't affect me."Ember was helpless. What troubled her the most was their fans on Facebook. Neither of them mentioned the fans who admired their so-called love story. Lugh comforted her. "Ember, don't take it seriously. They don't know the truth. Just be yourself."Lugh wanted Ember to know that he did not care about what the netizens commented online. He only cared about Ember's feelings.Ember had kept her distance from him to prevent more scandals since their scandal went viral online. On the other hand, Penelope was planning something big with the photos she had.She knew Caleb's schedule well, so she went to the hospital for Ember when Caleb was not around.Ember was busy with her work when Penelope arrived. When she raised her head, she saw Penelope looking at her arrogantly.Ember stared at Penelope coldly and said, "Ms. Ferguson, please leave now."Penelope ignored her and sat down.
Penelope snorted, slightly frightened. "Do you think you can fool me? Not a chance. I know how you deceived Caleb with those tactics of yours."She continued, "Mark my words! If you keep pestering Caleb without any shame, I will expose your scandal!"Not only did Penelope want to expose Ember's scandal, but she also wanted everyone to know about it!Ember couldn't stand Penelope for being noisy in the office. The latter kept telling Ember to give Caleb back to her.After rolling her eyes, Ember narrowed her eyes at Penelope and asked coldly, "Do you want to take another beating, huh?"Penelope take a few steps back and looked at Ember warily before she replied, "So what? Ember Sanders, do you think you can do anything to me? Tell you what, the scandalous materials in my hands are more than enough to ruin you! You'd better get lost with your precious son!"A silent Ember watched Penelope cursing her, as if she was looking at a madwoman.However, Penelope kept cursing. "You are a
If Penelope posted these photos online, even Caleb wouldn't be able to help Ember by then!Penelope was satisfied looking at the photoshopped photos on the screen that met her desired requirement.Ember was wearing revealing clothes and hugging a man in the photos, letting one's imagination run wild.Penelope saved the photos and did not post them for the time being.Then, she transferred a great sum of money to the photoshop expert and replied: [I am satisfied with the photos that you photoshopped. I will come to you again next time.]A sneer appeared on Penelope's face. She wanted to find out how Ember was going to clear her name this time!Ember would not be lucky every time. Penelope didn't believe that Caleb would be so infatuated as to believe in that vicious Ember!Avery pestered Ember early in the morning and said that he wanted to accompany her to the hospital because it was boring to stay at home alone.Ember was a little helpless. She often took him to the hospital w
Avery thought that the hypocritical expression on Penelope's face was funny. Since she had already said she was here to accompany him, he might as well teach this bad woman a lesson on the behalf of his mother!"That's great, Aunt Penelope. It just so happened that I accidentally lost the toy that Daddy gave me just now. I haven't been able to find it. Aunt Penelope, can you help me?"His sincere eyes and appearance were lovable.Penelope had no way to refuse Avery. After agreeing to his request, she searched around with much difficulty, thanks to her short skirt and high heels. But she couldn't find it at all. Avery sat on the couch and wailed about the toy being his favorite.Penelope helplessly squatted on the ground to search for the toy, looking wretched. She even suspected that Avery was playing tricks on her. However, it seemed not to be the case when she saw how sad he was.Not only did Penelope fail to find Avery's toy, but she also messed up Ember's office. Eventually, s
Penelope instantly became the target of public criticism. Knowing that justice was not on her side, she rolled her eyes at Ember and clapped her hands."Great, this place is indeed your turf. To think that even a mere nurse can talk shit about me!"Ember told the other nurses to leave the office because she didn't want to involve other innocent people."Penelope, you and I should've just stayed in our lanes. Yet, you tried to mess with me every time. As for Caleb, he is not an object but a human being. If you like Caleb so much, you could've confessed your love to him. You didn't have to come to my place to seek attention because now you have seriously interrupted my work."Ember showed Penelope the door, but Penelope remained unmoved, as if she didn't hear Ember.Now that she had the scandal about Ember, she didn't have to waste her breath arguing with her.She slowly took out a stack of photos from her bag and impatiently threw them on Ember's desk.Penelope snarled out, "Embe
Caleb expressionlessly stretched out his hand to keep a distance from her and got straight to the point. "Penelope, I know you had something to do with Queenie. I have warned you many times not to mess with Ember. Why did you turn a deaf ear?"Queenie was the actress who caused trouble for Ember.As if she had seen something terrible, Penelope quickly looked away from his menacing gaze and denied, "Caleb, you are mistaken. How could I be acquainted with a nobody like her?"Caleb had already investigated everything that Penelope had done. He would not have come here if he hadn't had sufficient evidence."Penelope, I'll offer you one last chance. Take the earliest flight abroad tomorrow with the compensation I give you. The money will be enough for you to live luxuriously for the rest of your life."Penelope couldn't believe her ears. She was a total stranger in a foreign country. How could she be willing to stay in that kind of place for the rest of her life?"Caleb, we have known
A look of disappointment flashed across Caleb's face when he heard what she said. However, he was unwilling to give up. "Em, you're exhausted from work today. Why don't I take you two out to dinner?"Just then, Avery in his arms echoed, "Mommy, just agree to it. You performed surgery all morning today and wasted so much time reasoning with that bad woman. Even I feel tired for your sake! I have to make Daddy spend a lot of money today!"However, Ember remained unmoved and kept a straight face as she spoke, "Avery, have you forgotten that you just ate? Let's go back quickly and rest."Avery pretended not to hear her and acted like a spoiled child. "Mommy, please! I really want to go out! Mommy, you are the best!"Avery tried every trick in the book, but Ember was unyielding. Therefore, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.It was then that Caleb took Ember's hand and said, "Em, I know you are dedicated to your job, but you need to have a proper meal after work. Since Avery wants
After cutting a steak with a knife and fork, Caleb looked dignified as he pushed the plate toward Ember.Then, he took out a piece of tissue and wiped his hands, revealing a self-deprecating smile. "Em, do you know?" He looked at Ember affectionately and said, "In fact, I have been longing to have a sweet and pleasant life like this with you where we have dinner together with Avery after work, just like normal people."Ember had a smile on her face. How could she not have fantasized about this scenario? She had fantasized about the scenario countless times, but she never got a second chance.When she married Caleb back then, she was arrogant enough to think that she could capture Caleb's heart.However, she ended up suffering a crushing defeat before she gave up.Ember looked at the plate of steak in front of her and hadn't made a move since the beginning, as if it was a hot potato. She then said with a smile, "You have to understand that once there are cracks in some things, th
