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
Public opinion grew rapidly on the Internet, and the employees of Lane Group saw the post.Many netizens commented under the post.As Penelope looked at the heated public opinion online, her lips involuntarily curled into a smirk.Now that she had exposed Ember for stealing company secrets, she wanted to find out how Caleb was going to explain to the senior directors in the company.Those directors were all old-fashioned, stubborn and would not believe Caleb's words easily.Caleb was dealing with work at the top-floor president's office in Lane Group, but he suddenly heard Allen knocking rapidly on the door."Come in."In response, Allen hurriedly pushed the door open and entered the office.Allen strode to Caleb's desk with a solemn look on his face and handed over the tablet to him."Mr. Lane, someone spread the word online about Mrs. Lane stealing company secrets. Now the directors know about this incident and have come to the top floor. They want you to give them an explan
Now that one person spoke up, the others began to voice their own opinions. "It's all over the Internet right now. I don't care what relationship you have with Mrs. Lane—you must give us an explanation!"Hearing these remarks, Caleb's handsome face darkened, his eyes keen and stern as he stared across everyone around him. His voice was incredibly icy."Who here has evidence in your hands that she leaked the company's secrets?"Once this was uttered, they all looked at each other in surprise.Right. None of them had evidence.Caleb laughed bitterly before snapping, "You have no evidence at all. You simply saw some rumors on the Internet and believed them? Isn't it a little too arbitrary?"One of the senior directors was displeased with what Caleb said. "Mr. Lane, it's true that we don't have any evidence, but there’s no smoke without fire. Why isn't there a story on the Internet that I'm the one who spilled the secrets? There must be a reason for the rumors about Mrs. Lane!"Ther
Ember arrived home from a hectic day at the hospital, only to discover that the Lane Group's leakage of the confidential documents had been uncovered and the truth had emerged.An unknown netizen had uncovered the arrangement between Penelope and Queenie on the internet.Ember couldn't help but think of Caleb's call from today.Did he do all this?Her slender, white fingers glided across the screen of her cell phone, looking up information on the internet.Ember was moved, and the corners of her lips rose slightly.Avery had been observing Ember's motions. When he noticed her holding her phone and smirking, he covered his mouth and drew back from the doorway.Closing the door behind him, he silently took out his phone and sent a message to Caleb."Daddy, I've already helped you solve those public opinions on the Internet. Mommy also saw it, and seems to be very happy about it."At the president's office in Lane Group, Allen was holding a tablet, and Caleb was reporting the inc
