"Good, I'll make a note of this, when I go to the research institute next time, I'll talk to Professor Stone, I'm sure he likes passionate researchers like you."

Wilson had a good old-fashioned smile on his face and smiled. "Thank you Dr. Sanders. I’ll definitely do my best to research the special medicine that can cure your mother as soon as possible."

Ember was extremely grateful.

"Dr. Sanders, it's getting late, why don't I invite you to dinner, just so the two of us can sit down and chat about the research at the institute."

When Ember heard this, she didn't hesitate and opened her mouth to consent.

However, before she could finish her sentence, a low, mesmerizing male voice emerged from behind her.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Wilson. I'm afraid she can't make it today as I want to bring her on a date."

Ember twisted her head in astonishment when she heard Caleb's voice and saw the man approaching her in wide strides.

The corners of her mouth couldn't help but bloom into a smile as she

    Caleb investigated Wilson, but he did not find anything wrong with him. Instead, Wilson was notably professional.He was well known for his expertise in comatose patients.Moreover, he was in charge of Ember's mother while she was in a coma.Caleb doubted Wilson's intention, but Ember thought he was just jealous.Ember smiled and promised softly, "Okay, okay. I'll keep my distance from Dr. Wilson, okay? I promise.""Fine."Caleb smiled, and his gaze softened when he heard Ember's doting words. -Caleb kept his promise about the date.He had been busy working day and night since returning from abroad.He had not contacted Ember since. Of course, he wished he could stay with Ember all the time and spend time together with just the two of thjem.Caleb took Ember to a famous nearby restaurant."This restaurant is famous for its food. Let's try some. Just the two of us."Ember smiled sweetly while holding Caleb's hand.Unexpectedly, they saw Susan there.Susan was there with

    "Mr. Lane, what a coincidence."Caleb stared at Susan coldly.He raised his chin condescendingly and said coldly, "Yeah, there's not many restaurants here. We could meet anyone."Caleb was disgusted by Susan's tone.He intended to leave, but Susan grabbed his wrist and stopped him. She looked at Caleb with a pitiful and innocent look. "Mr. Lane, I admire you, but that's all. I won't do anything. I hope Dr. Sanders doesn't misunderstand my intentions."Susan said it deliberately to express her feelings for Caleb while provoking his relationship with Ember.Caleb felt offended by her touch.He suddenly raised his hand, pushed Susan away, and warned coldly, "Ms. Baker, don't touch me. Your feelings have nothing to do with me. I know what you're up to."Caleb strode away without looking at her again.Susan stood there. Her smile faded as she looked at Caleb.Ember was ready to leave when Caleb returned.She asked, "What took you so long?"Caleb seemed to be in a bad mood. He

    Ember waved the paper to Caleb and asked, "What's this?"Caleb was confused. "Huh? Is it in my pocket?"Ember nodded.That paper was folded twice into a square, so it was not garbage.She strode to a streetlight, slowly opened the paper, and saw a hotel room number alongside a scribbled note. "Mr. Lane, I'll be waiting for you tonight. We'll have so much fun together."Ember was alarmed.Someone was trying to seduce Caleb!Caleb caught up and glanced at the paper.Ember angrily balled up the paper before Caleb could read it. She then looked at Caleb and asked, "Did you meet someone in the washroom?"Caleb was stunned and quickly figured it out.His expression became horrifying.Susan!Caleb put his hands on her shoulders and explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't know about the paper and so as its content. I met Susan on my way back from the washroom."Susan's name made Ember unpleased.She glared at Caleb angrily, threw the paper to him, and strode forward without saying a word

    Ember and Caleb returned home.Jamie and Avery ran toward them happily.Jamie had accepted Caleb after living together for days.She jumped happily before Caleb and called out to him continuously."Uncle Caleb, welcome home.""Daddy, I miss you so much."Caleb's heart was filled with warmth.He got down on one knee and gathered the children in his arms before kissing them on their faces."I miss you too. I brought you gifts. I hope you'll like it."Caleb knew how to deal with children.He bought a complete set of Barbie dolls for Jamie and a toy car for Avery.Avery and Jamie were overjoyed. They hugged Caleb and kissed his cheeks.Then, they started playing happily with their toys for a long time.Ember went downstairs to remind them when it was getting late."Jamie, Avery, you should sleep now. It's late now. Your class with Mr. Waller starts tomorrow."Jamie and Avery put their toys down and went to the bedroom obediently while holding hands.At night, when Caleb was

    Caleb crossed his hands on his chest and frowned slightly. He looked like a dog that had been ignored by its owner, waiting for its owner's comfort.Ember was amused by his expression. She could not help but chuckle as she leaned closer.She gently drew circles on Caleb's chest and asked seductively, "What's wrong? Are you jealous? He's too young to be my type. What are you worrying about?"Caleb looked at Ember with even more resentment and bit Ember's finger."I am jealous. Do something about it."Caleb flipped around so that he could straddle Ember. He did so while staring at her the whole time.-The next day, Ember went to the hospital to visit her mother as she did every day.On the way there, she brought a large bouquet of flowers to decorate the ward.Ember sat beside the bed, gently holding her mother's withered hands with both hands, and said in a warm and soft voice, "Mom, Jamie, and Avery miss you. They wanted to live with you. I wish we could do that."By the way

    "Professor Stone, what kind of herb is it? Where can I find this herb?"No matter how difficult it was, Ember was willing to find the herb as long as they could develop the specific drug."This herb grows in the most dangerous forest of Southeast Ayar," Stephen said slowly. "Basically, it is not available in other places. One can only buy it at an exorbitant price."Ember knitted her brows upon hearing those words.Just as Ember was thinking about what to do, Wilson, who had been sitting next to her, suddenly stood up and spoke seriously, "Professor Stone, it is not easy to find this herb. It may even cost a fortune, so it is not worth it. Why don't we continue the previous research?"The progress of the previous research is already at 80%. We will produce some results if we work harder. It is much easier than finding the herb."Wilson had been leading several researchers to conduct research in this aspect before Stephen's arrival.Although they had not produced any results, the

    "I think our lab should be fully focused on this research program instead of developing a new research program."Wilson couldn't help but become a little excited at the end of his speech.Ember noticed that Wilson spoke excitedly for the first time.In normal times, Wilson would speak regularly and slowly. He would never speak eagerly.Although Ember did not fully participate in the research, she was familiar with its progress and results.The previous research progressed slowly while being effective.But at the final stage, the research had reached the bottleneck without any progress.Ember was also considered a researcher. One had to be patient and persevere in doing research.However, blind persistence sometimes may lead to wrong results instead of victory.Her mother was running out of time. If they proceeded with the previous research, they would certainly not complete it within two months.Maybe others could afford to wait. Neither Ember nor her mother could wait any lo

    Ember returned home and placed the large bouquet of flowers in a vase.Jamie and Avery had just completed their lesson at that moment. They ran out of the study happily knowing that Ember had come home."Aunt Ember, you are back!""Mommy!"The two spoke simultaneously as they ran towards Ember with open arms.Ember squatted down out of habit. She then reached out towards the two children and hugged them gently."Tell me, did you both listen to Mr. Waller and do well in class today?"Jamie and Avery nodded vigorously. They looked serious as they responded obediently, "We did."Seth walked out of the study. When he saw Ember, he greeted her with a shy smile.Ember stood up and asked casually, "Seth, how were the two of them? Did you have a hard time taking care of the two children alone?”Seth was tall. Ember had to raise her head to look at him while he was standing there.He had fair skin. After he saw Ember, he was ruddy-cheeked and smiled shyly. Then, he said seriously, "N

    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
