Vengeance Against That Scum Chapter 232
For the sake of the appointment with Caleb, Penelope purposely chose a beautiful outfit and put on exquisite makeup before setting off.Penelope showed up at the cafe at 3:00 p.m. sharp.She was dressed in a red maxi skirt, wore red lipstick and had black sunglasses resting on her high nose bridge. She was holding an elegant purse as well.After glancing around the cafe, she accurately located Caleb in the corner.Penelope strode over and said with a smile, "Caleb, I hope I'm not late."She deliberately sounded coquettish. Then, she bent down, put her long hair up and sat opposite Caleb.When Caleb saw Penelope coming over, he walked towards her with a cold gaze.He got straight to the point and asked coldly, "Did you give the IP address to Queenie Brown?"It never occurred to Penelope that this was the first thing Caleb would say after he asked her out.She trembled violently with a trace of panic in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and her mouth twitched into

Penelope played her trump card when she noticed Caleb didn't believe any of her explanations just now.She quickly made herself look pitiful in a flood of uncontrollable tears as she said aggrievedly, "Caleb, how could you do this to me? Even if you don't like me, you shouldn't misunderstand me for something I didn't do."I'm so sad that you're doing this to me."As Penelope spoke, she reached out and covered her chest, looking utterly devastated.Her pretense had no effect on Caleb. Instead, it made him feel disgusted.The man's handsome face was devoid of warmth as he stood up with one hand in his pocket and looked down at Penelope."Penelope, wipe that look off your face. It is ineffective against me. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and I will never accuse you."Just as Penelope was about to defend herself again, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.Ember pushed the door open and walked into the cafe.She bit her li

However, Ember glared at Caleb as soon as he opened his mouth.Ember stared coldly at him, still giving off an aura of rage."Mr. Lane, please do not interfere with what I am going to do next. I will show no mercy if you go against me for the sake of your confidante."After saying these words, Ember stopped looking at him. She turned around and strode out of the cafe.Caleb stood there stunned for a while. When he came to his senses and wanted to chase after Ember, she was long gone.-When Ember returned home in the evening, Avery rushed up to her and asked seriously, "Mommy, are you still angry?"Facing Avery, Ember would keep her temper.She chuckled, "I'm not angry anymore."Avery looked seriously at his mother's facial expression. Although she said she was not angry anymore, he could tell that she had not forgiven his father yet.Avery grasped the tip of Ember's little finger and shook it gently. "Mommy, Daddy told me that he already knew he was wrong.""Let's forgive D

The hospital was bustling today. Ember had to treat many patients, but she was a little absent-minded."Dr. Sanders, how's the condition of the patient just now? The patient is still waiting outside. Are the results out?"The nurse's voice suddenly sounded, bringing Ember back to her senses.Ember has been absent-minded many times since this morning.She felt immensely guilty for being distracted, so she smiled apologetically at the nurse. Then, she cleared her head and resumed working seriously."The report will be out soon. Go tell the patient to wait for a moment."When the nurse left, she took a hard look at Ember and reminded kindly, "Dr. Sanders, you should rest for today if you are not feeling well."There were many patients waiting for treatment. How could Ember afford to rest? She shook her head lightly as her mouth twitched."I'm fine. Let's continue."After getting busy with work, Ember came downstairs to the hospital to get some air during breaktime.There was a s

Jamie agreed.When Lugh saw her nod, his lips curled into a relieved smile."Since you've already invited Jamie, why don't you invite me to your house as well?" Lugh deliberately joked in a soft voice.Ember's beautiful eyes sparkled in the sunlight as she chuckled. "Of course. You may come over with her tonight."-When Ember returned home in the evening, she brought some ingredients and was prepared to cook for the children.Seeing his mother carrying bags of ingredients, Avery blinked and asked, "Mommy, are we going to have guests in the house today?"Ember put down the items in her hands. She then reached out and rubbed his nose as she said pleasantly,"Yes, Jamie and Lugh are coming over today. Can you entertain her later on my behalf?"Avery immediately cheered and clapped his hands. "Okay, okay, I'll take care of Jamie on your behalf."The doorbell rang.Avery jumped down from the sofa and shouted happily, "Mommy, I'll open the door. It's Uncle Lugh and Jamie!"Ember

Lugh picked up Jamie and whispered in her ear, "Jamie, say goodbye to Aunt Ember and Avery."Jamie had a great time with Avery. She waved her hand with a smile on her adorable face and said, "Goodbye, Aunt Ember and Avery."-To Lugh's surprise, he met Caleb downstairs while carrying Jamie.The moment he saw Caleb, he became vigilant and tensed up, tightening his grip on Jamie.Caleb's emotionless face darkened as he gazed at Lugh.Jamie was terrified looking at Caleb's cold face, so she kept moving her body close to Lugh.Sensing Jamie's uneasiness, Lugh patted her on the back."Mr. Lane, what can I do for you? If you have no business with me, I will take the child home. You scared her."Caleb's eyes fell on Jamie, his expression softened. He then took a deep look at Lugh and spoke in hushed tones, "Let's talk in private."Lugh did not refuse him and replied, "Okay."He hugged Jamie and put her in the car. Then, he reached out and touched her head to comfort her, "Jamie, wa

After a long time, Caleb stared at Lugh with a steely gaze and looked as if he was strategizing.As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was full of threats and warnings. "Lugh, I will follow the formal procedures. You'd better brace yourself for the consequences of taking my child away."His child would always belong to him. No one could take her away.With that, he ignored Lugh and strode away.Lugh stood still for a while.When he heard Jamie gently tapping on the car window not far away, he came back to his senses and strode towards Jamie."Uncle Lugh, what were you talking about with that man?"When Jamie saw Lugh come back, she looked innocent as she asked curiously,This was the first time that Jamie had become curious about a stranger.Helpless, Lugh replied with a smile, "We talked about some issues between adults."After Lugh left with Jamie, Ember and Avery sat on the couch and watched TV.Avery leaned on Ember's arms and said softly, "Mommy, I like Jamie very m

What Lugh did to Jamie and Ember was unforgivable.Much to his irritation, Lugh knitted his brows and scratched his head. For a moment, he really didn't know what to do.Finally, he sighed feebly. He did not tell Ember the truth in the end.He thought about waiting a little longer. Once Jamie's condition was stabilized, he would tell Ember the truth in person and apologize to her.-On the other hand, Penelope couldn't swallow the anger and the hatred in her heart grew when she recalled the severe humiliation she had suffered at Ember and Caleb's hands.It was all Queenie's fault for betraying her!Penelope couldn't let it go.She made a phone call with a ferocious gaze as she gritted her teeth. "Hey, I want you guys to take care of someone."Shortly afterwards, a mob of gangsters wearing leopard print clothes and earrings came to Penelope.A nasty man swung the stick in his hand and asked arrogantly, "Ms. Ferguson, whom do you want us to take care of this time?"A hint of m

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.

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
