Ember was stunned even until the doctor left.

Her body became cold. She clenched her hands tightly. Her nails almost penetrated her flesh.

Lugh walked up to her, put his hands on her shoulders, and patted her gently. "Ember, don't worry. Everything's going to be okay."

He believed there must be a way to cure Jamie's congenital heart disease.

At Begonia Hotel, Penelope was strangled in the hotel room that had ambiguous lighting and a pungent smell.

"Caleb, let go of me… Let go…"

Caleb strangled Penelope fiercely and stared at her coldly with a terrifying expression.

"Penelope, I've warned you before, but obviously, you're not listening. I don't care what you and Henry are up to, but you won't get away with this."

Caleb's voice and gaze were cold.

He disliked the smell in the room, so he applied greater force and ordered, "Open the door."

The door was locked after he entered the room.

Penelope was frightened, and her body shivered uncontrollably.

    Caleb took the ornament, strode to the window, and hit the window with the ornament.Although he applied great force, the glass was unharmed.He tried several times again, but the glass was still as good as new.Caleb held the ornament with both hands and hit the window hard repeatedly.Finally, cracks appeared on the glass.The smashing sound of the window made a loud noise. He only has to wait for someone to complain and the hotel staff to check the room.Even if Henry bribed the hotel staff, someone might call the police.No one could stop him from leaving.Penelope had been exposed to the fragrance for a long time, and it started to take effect. She felt her body getting hotter.She squirmed around on the floor before taking off her skirt with one hand."It's so hot… It's too hot..."Penelope gradually surrendered to her lust.She seemed to have forgotten how scary Caleb was, seeing as she staggered and pounced on Caleb like a hungry wolf.Just like that, she wrapped h

    Caleb was the one who saved Jamie when she was kidnapped by human traffickers. She felt secure in Caleb's arms.That was why Jamie wanted to see Caleb so eagerly.Ember was stunned and almost cried.She wondered if Jamie had accepted Caleb as her father.Jamie asked again weakly, "Where's Daddy? I want Daddy."Ember came to her senses and realized she had not seen Caleb since she woke up from sleep.She wondered where he went.Ember frowned and subconsciously looked at Lugh nervously with tearful eyes."Don't worry. Maybe your daddy has work to do."Lugh bent down slightly, placed his palm on Jamie's head, and said gently."Jamie, your daddy has work to do. He'll be right back. I'm here. Don't worry."Jamie was calmed and comforted by Lugh's gentleness.Luckily, Jamie was a child, so she was easily distracted.Jamie looked at Lugh with tearful eyes and whispered, "Okay."She was weak after the operation and fell into a deep sleep after a while.Caleb did not show up even

    Ember narrowed her eyes upon hearing those words.To her surprise, a lot of things happened while she was unconscious.She returned to the ward and glanced at the fast asleep Jamie.Then, she turned to look at Lugh and said, "Lugh, please look after Jamie in my absence. I'll go find Caleb.""Okay, go ahead. Don't worry."As Ember turned around and left the ward, frostiness crept across her face.She took out her phone and dialed a number.She got straight to the point and said decisively, "Get three people and wait for me at Begonia Hotel."After giving the instruction, she was prepared to go to Begonia Hotel.Avery reached out and grabbed Ember's finger, raising his head with an innocent yet serious expression."Mommy, I want to go with you."Ember didn't know about Caleb's current situation. He couldn't be reached via phone calls, indicating a bad sign.Squatting down, she reached out to touch Avery's head and said gently, "Avery, stay in the hospital to look after your s

    Out of the corner of his eye, Caleb inadvertently glanced at the bathroom. He swiftly pulled the thin blanket off the bed and wrapped Penelope up like a burrito.He harshly lifted Penelope who was wrapped in the blanket and threw her right into the bathtub.He then turned on the water and set it to the lowest temperature before pouring it directly on Penelope's face.Just then, there were rapid knocks on the door all of a sudden. Along with the knocks, he seemed to hear Ember's voice.Caleb was instantly frozen and his bloodshot eyes flashed. After seeing Penelope lying immobilized in the bathtub, he strode towards the door."Em, is that you?"Caleb disregarded his usual calm image and shouted towards the door at the top of his voice.Ember was banging on the door, trying to attract the attention of the occupants inside the room and confirm Caleb's presence.When she heard Caleb's familiar voice, her eyes sparkled as she replied with a raised voice, "It's me!"Before Ember cou

    When Penelope heard Caleb's voice, she flashed an indignant glance at him with a coquettish look on her face."Caleb, how could you be irresponsible after sleeping with me? Look, you caused all these marks on my body. They hurt so much."Penelope made herself look pitiful as she stared helplessly at Caleb.However, Ember suddenly stepped forward before Caleb could speak.Before Caleb came to his senses, she raised her arm and smacked Penelope across the face.The smack turned Penelope's face to one side."Penelope Ferguson, I don't mind slapping some sense into you if you're still muddle-headed."Ember's aloof voice was devoid of warmth. She had a stern look in her eyes and emanated an air of hostility.For a moment, Penelope saw Caleb in Ember."Keep your eyes peeled! The man in front of you is mine! Put away those dirty thoughts of yours and stop having thoughts for my man!"As Ember spoke, a cold aura suddenly emanated from her, making Penelope fearful.After Ember finish

    On the way back to the hospital, Ember told Caleb about Jamie's current physical condition.When she brought up the matter, she kept frowning with a worried look on her serious face."Jamie managed to wake up this time, but she has congenital heart disease. We have to find a suitable heart if we want her to make a full recovery."It was not an easy task.Caleb looked grave with a firm gaze.He reached out and held Ember's hand."Don't worry, Jamie will be fine. I will get my men to find a suitable heart as soon as possible so that Jamie can undergo the surgery."Besides, Jamie has an excellent mother like you. If you can capture my heart, you will certainly be able to cure Jamie."His words of comfort made Ember feel better.She moved her petite body toward Caleb and leaned on his chest.-Jamie was awake by the time they both returned to the hospital.After Jamie woke up, she looked restless. Her eyes shimmered with tears when she didn't see Ember and Caleb.Lugh knew Jam

    Jamie was mad at the fact that Lugh had silently taken her away back then, but his feelings for her were genuine over the years.She didn't want to separate from Lugh after she reunited with her parents.In Jamie's eyes, being separated from Lugh was as uncomfortable as not having her parents around.Lugh's heart melted instantly. He stretched out his little finger and hooked Jamie's."Okay, I promise. I will be with you always."Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door. Ember and Caleb walked into the ward.Lugh took the initiative to give up his seat next to the bed and spoke gently, "Jamie, look who's here?"Jamie looked in the direction of the sound and saw Caleb and Ember holding hands and walking toward her.Jamie suddenly looked embarrassed and hid her head under the blanket as soon as she saw them.Looking at Jamie, Ember chuckled helplessly and smiled dotingly with her eyes.Caleb strode forward and sat beside the hospital bed. He then placed his palm on Jami

    Initially, Henry wanted to threaten Caleb with Jamie, but he didn't expect that he would rescue her in such a short time and foil his plan.He took advantage of the situation and lured Caleb to Begonia Hotel, hoping that his wife would catch him red-handed and divorce him.However, Henry didn't expect Caleb to resist Penelope with such strong willpower.Henry reached out and swept the wine glass off the table with a crash, leaving a mess on the carpet in an instant."Caleb Lane, fret not, I shall make you suffer!" he thought. "We have long days ahead of us. Just you wait!"Just then, a man walked into the villa.That man was Henry's most loyal subordinate. He was also a hacker who excelled in information investigation and network attacks.He walked up to Henry and lowered his head before he reported respectfully, "Mr. Brooks, I just found out that Caleb's mother-in-law is currently hospitalized. Maybe this is our best chance."The angry look on Henry's face slowly subsided afte

    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.

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.

    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?
