Caleb understood Ember's urgent desire to develop a special medicine, but he couldn't face the thought of Ember sacrificing her sleep and food every day to conduct research.Ember had lost a lot of weight in a few days, and her lovely face looked weary.Caleb drove to the institute right before dinner."Ember, today is Professor Stone's first day at the Institute with his apprentice. We should rightfully treat Professor Stone to a meal. What do you think?"Caleb gave this reason so that Ember could temporarily relax.Ember thought about it and felt that what he said was logical.It was an honor for the institute to welcome such a well-known figure as Professor Stone."Good. Then let's throw a welcome banquet for Professor Stone today. Since we're inviting guests, we can't just invite Professor Stone alone. I'll call all the researchers of the institute today and go to dinner together."Caleb, of course, had no opinions.He nodded with a loving smile on his face. "Okay, all as

Due to the fact that Susan was Professor Stone's apprentice, Caleb remained polite to her and laughed softly. "Why are you toasting me? We are just strangers..."Susan's eyes were filled with smiles. No one could find fault with her."You may not know me, but I know you. You funded a large number of college students back then. I am one of that group of college students."If it wasn't for your funding back then, I wouldn't be here now. Now that I've seen my benefactor, of course I have to toast you."After saying that, without waiting for Caleb to respond, Susan guffawed some more and looked toward Ember, smiling coquettishly. "I think you won't understand me if I provide you with this reason right, Ms. Sanders?"Ember had been focusing on her food, not expecting Susan to bring up her name.She raised her head and smiled indifferently, with confidence and generosity."Of course. I didn't expect you and Caleb to have such a bond."Susan smiled and replied, "Yes, I didn't expect t

Susan appeared to be inebriated as she raised the wine glass in her hand. The red liquid ran down the corners of her mouth, down her neck, and into her clothing.Derek frowned slightly and worriedly asked, ''Susan, aren't you a little drunk? Don't drink if you're not up to it. You need to continue your research tomorrow.Hearing this, Susan grinned, swayed slightly, and said, "I'm sorry, I accidentally drank a little too much when I was happy. It's really because I can't control myself when I see Mr. Lane."After saying that, she shook slightly and fell into Caleb's arms, who was beside her.Fortunately, Caleb responded fast. He rapidly stood up, reaching out with one hand to hold Susan, who was about to fall.Caleb's brows furrowed as she bent over, and his face darkened.Ember returned from the bathroom and arrived at the door just in time to see this scenario.She gradually narrowed her beautiful eyes, and she lifted her foot to take a large stride into the room.Caleb's eye

Caleb stretched out and took Ember in his arms, his brow furrowed. "Ember, would Susan's presence impact your work? If it does, I'll go talk to Professor Stone and ask him to send her away."Ember considered briefly before softly shaking her head. "It's better to forget about it."So far, Susan had not done anything unusual other than having ulterior motives toward Caleb.Susan was brought here by Professor Stone. The professor would feel uneasy if Susan were to be sent away for this reason.Ember could still handle the situation so far. Thus, it was better to avoid trouble.Caleb had a serious expression on his face. "Okay. Then I'll leave it alone for now. But if she does anything excessive again, please tell me."Ember was already upset over her mother's situation at the moment, and he didn't want to add to her problems."Okay, I know."Ember discussed her next plans with Caleb when they came home at night after washing up."Although my mother's situation has stabilized, it

When Ember returned to her workplace, she ran into Susan, who was walking toward her.Susan had a smile on her face at first, but when she spotted Ember, it vanished. She looked like she had encountered an enemy as she swept a chilly glare at her.Ember was going to greet her. But when she received a blank expression, the smile she kept at the corner of her mouth dipped.Just as Susan was about to go, Ember called out to her harshly."Do you have time for a chat, Dr. Baker?"Susan turned around violently as she heard her voice, and their lines of sight appeared to meet in the air, as if giving off sparks..Susan raised her chin and snorted disapprovingly. "Fine."The two of them arrived in an empty corridor.Susan took an aloof posture, her arms folded across her chest like a rooster preparing for combat."What do you want to talk about, Dr. Sander?"Ember, on the contrary, had a slight smile on her face, but it did not extend to her eyes."You should know the purpose of com

"Jamie, this flower is for you. Is it pretty?""This flower is so pretty, let's give it to Aunt Ember when she comes back.""Okay. When Mommy comes back, we'll give it to her. But this one is yours. If Mommy has a pretty flower, you should have one too."Ember couldn't help but smile as she heard Jamie and Avery's voices in the yard.She walked in while calling out, "Jamie and Avery, I'm back."When the two children playing in the courtyard heard her voice, they acted like two small butterflies, stretching out their wings and rushing toward her."Mommy!""Aunt Ember!"Ember hurriedly squatted and extended her arms toward the two children who pounced at her.The two of them crashed into her arms.Ember's heart was about to melt as she heard the two children's gentle voices.She caressed Jamie's cheeks and kissed her on the forehead. After that, she did the same to Avery.She asked in a motherly voice, "Did you two miss me?"After spending some time with Ember, Jamie fell in

Gazing compassionately, Ember said softly, "Mom, I brought the children to see you."Avery raised his head, saw his mommy's red eyes, and sensed her feelings. He felt a little sad too."Grandma, I'm Avery. I've come to see you. Grandma, you must get well soon."Would Ember be happier if he chatted to his grandma more and encouraged her to smile?Jamie stood next to him and called out in a quiet voice, "Grandma, I'm Jamie. Are you sleeping? Can you hear me telling you a story? I will tell you a story so that you won't feel lonely and bored on your bed."Ember stood by the side, with a lump in her throat. She was touched as she saw the two children surrounding her mother.How could she have given birth to such two little angels?When they left the hospital, Ember explained the situation to the two."Jamie and Avery, Grandma's condition is a bit serious. I'm going to stay by Grandma's side for a period of time. Are you willing to stay and accompany her as well?"Avery didn't hesi

"I'll go back to deal with my work. Then I'll immediately rush back to accompany you and the children.""I'll wait for you."Ember tenderly hugged Caleb again after sending him to the airport and couldn't help but nag, "After you go back, don't just focus on work. You should also take care of yourself and eat on time."Caleb was reluctant to leave, but he had to.Ember intended to sleep with Jamie and Avery that night since Caleb was absent.The two children laid on Ember's left and right sides, and she carried a picture book in her hand, telling the story to them in a soft voice.Ember was telling the story of a tadpole searching for its mother.Avery had heard that many times before, but he listened closely because Ember was the one speaking.The story was only halfway through when Jamie couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Ember, did the tadpole find its mom in the end?"Jamie stared at Ember with teary eyes, bringing a sudden sadness in her heart."Of course the tadpole found its

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
