Obviously, she was the most deserving candidate to stand alongside Caleb. But now she was being rejected!

One day, she'd make them all pay the price for failing to see her true worth!

At the time, Eva took Ember's hand inside the mansion.

She was quite fond of Ember, but Caleb was slow to take action. She had given him so much time to pursue his wife, yet there was still no action at all.

It seemed that Eva still needed to take some action.

She sat alongside Ember and said, "I know you're a great woman. If other shameless women dare to cause you trouble, you can seek me out. I'll help you!"

Ember knew Eva was honest to her, so she smiled and shook her head. She gently replied, "Don't worry, Grandma. I usually work at the hospital. No one will look for trouble."

Eva was generally well-informed and knew exactly Penelope's behavior towards Ember.

She was unable to teach Penelope a lesson today since she did not want to disrupt the pleasant environment in the mansion. After this, P

    "Ember, you might not know this. Although the wine burns when you drink it, the alcohol degree is actually very low, so don't worry about overconsuming it."However, Eva and Ember didn't drink the same beverage. Ember, who was kept in the dark, believed all she said.Ember drank one glass of wine after another, and her head began to spin.She shook her head to stay awake. After hiccuping, she murmured slowly, "Grandma, I really can't drink anymore. I'm going to get drunk if I keep drinking..."Seeing Ember's current condition, Eva felt she hadn't drunk enough, so she convinced her to drink two more glasses.Avery was astonished. Eva really was capable and experienced in this area.His parents would undoubtedly reconcile tomorrow once Eva made her move, so he no longer had to be concerned!Ember didn't eat much because Eva's wine had satisfied her hunger.Eva badly wanted Ember and Caleb to hurriedly get back together, so she gave Ember a strong dose. As a result, Ember immediat

    Ember wanted to hide somewhere right now. She vaguely remembered she was the one yanking on Caleb to keep him from leaving!Ember was so ashamed that she didn't know where to begin expressing her anger.Just then, Caleb moved a little.Seeing this, Ember stumbled out of bed, picked up the clothing on the floor, and put them on.Her huge movement caused her body to ache slightly.Ember couldn't help but mentally curse at Caleb. She wondered how much strength did he use last night for her to suffer from back pain. How long has it been since he had been with a woman?Ember walked downstairs to find Avery and Eva playing on the couch.When Avery saw Ember walk down the stairs, he smiled and swung his arms up. He asked teasingly, "Mommy, how was your rest last night?"If Avery wasn't still a child, she may assume he did it on purpose.Feeling embarrassed, she blushed and changed the topic, "It's time to leave with mommy."Eva smirked as she examined Ember's countenance. She had be

    He stared at Ember, remembering her taking the initiative last night. This caused him to smile."Ember, why are you rushing to leave? Why don't you and Avery have breakfast first, and I'll drive you to the hospital later?"It was only then that Eva reacted. How could she have forgotten to invite Ember and Avery to breakfast?"It's still early. You should stay and have some breakfast first."Ember had mixed feelings when she saw Caleb.Now that she was mortified at the sight of Caleb, she simply declined. "No need. There's still work in the hospital that I'm in a hurry to take care of."Disappointed, Avery tugged on Ember's hand. "But I'm hungry now, Mommy. Besides, the manor is so far from the hospital. I don't want to walk."Caleb gazed at Avery with surprise. Wasn't he being too obvious in wanting to help his father out?"Then you can stay here. I'm leaving."Having picked up on Ember's strange tone, Avery followed her and left without eating breakfast.Arriving at the hosp

    The doctors likewise glanced at each other, knowing there was nothing they could do after seeing the patient's condition.The patient had sustained a terrible injury. There was a massive wound near the heart that was spurting blood. The injury was fatal. It would be bad if they were charged with murder as a result of this incident.Everyone was watching, unable to agree to provide treatment so easily.The patient bled so heavily that his lips had lost all color. Gritting his teeth, he exclaimed, "You doctors are heartless! I know you think my life isn't worth anything! If I die today, it'll be your fault! Everyone, do me a favor and help report these doctors!"Ember couldn't bear to see this situation, so she reassured the patient, "Don't worry, I'll do my best to save you."The patient's family members saw that she was young and did not appear particularly trustworthy. Their expression became scornful. "The other experienced doctors dare not promise us anything. You, on the other

    "Doctor, thank you. I heard that my injury was pretty serious, so I was very upset. Please don't take it personally."While Ember wasn't impressed, she replied, "There's no need to say so much, I can understand how you felt at that time. If I were you, I'd be worried and upset too. Saving lives is my duty."This man's injury was quite tricky. It was not severe enough to put him in a coma instantly, but it was still life-threatening. Not to mention, it was especially close to his heart, so no doctor dared to take over.Ember left after leaving a list of do's and don'ts.As for Penelope, she was utterly humiliated in Lane Manor yesterday. The more she thought about it, the worse she felt in her heart.How could she have gotten into such a bad situation if it hadn't been for Ember? She must make all of those people pay!Penelope reviewed Ferguson Corp's partners in her office. She happened to flip through and discovered a timber cooperation. That was when she recalled that Caleb's c

    Ember looked at the photo. The woman in the photo was just one of Caleb's secretaries. How could Penelope say otherwise?It seemed that Penelope did not do her homework very well, as she couldn’t even identify Caleb's secretary. Now, she texted Ember with the intention of driving a wedge between Ember and Caleb. It was stupidity to the extreme.However, Penelope had a good point. Caleb was never short of women. Even if the one in the photo was the secretary, so what? He did have a lot of women around him.Ember was late in responding to Penelope. The latter couldn't sit still at all, so she sent another message. "Ember, to tell you the truth, Caleb likes you now just because you're Avery's mom. Do you think Caleb will still take care of you if he successfully takes custody over him?"Ember did not want to engage in a verbal altercation with her, but Penelope was a fool and had to prod Ember into fury.Ember had always been someone who would not offend anyone unless others offended

    Avery felt there was tension in the room. Why was Ember acting strangely ever since she saw Caleb?Avery laughed and wrapped up the conversation. "Haha, Mommy! I was just joking. I'm not going anywhere."The little boy was perplexed by what just happened. He had sacrificed too much for daddy and mommy's love!Caleb picked Avery up from the ground and gently tapped his little nose with his index finger. "Avery, I've prepared toys for you. I'll give them to you later, okay?"Avery nodded enthusiastically. "Okay! Yay!"After walking Ember and Avery to the car, Caleb realized he had left the toys at home."Ember, the toys I bought for Avery has been left at home. Why don't I take you and Avery to retrieve the toys first before sending you two home?"Ember didn't refuse the offer. Instead, she nodded her head and agreed.Her heart lurched as she noticed the familiar house outside her car window.Caleb had already gotten out of the car and opened the door.

    This was also where Ember had spent many years in. It would be a lie to say she had no feelings for it.Every corner, every ornament, and even the scent in the air here evoked memories from the past.Ember stepped out of the living room and wandered about aimlessly.She had mixed sentiments about the familiar surroundings and scenery.Previously, she would wait for Caleb to return to the house. She'd knot his tie, put on his suit, and send him off to work.She would also set a table with delicious food and wait for him to return.Ember unconsciously wandered to the garden, where the housekeeping staff milled about busily.A housekeeper in the back garden heard footsteps and assumed it was Caleb. She turned her head and respectfully replied, "Sir, you have..."Before she could finish speaking, she noticed a familiar face."Mrs. Lane, you're back!"This brought Ember back to her senses, and she looked at the familiar face in front of her, shaking her head sheepishly."Kara, it

    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.

    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.

    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 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?
