Murray looked at the man across from him. It was then he finally realized that something was wrong, and he had a very angry expression.

"You're trying to cheat and threaten me! I don't want to play today! Let me go right now!"

However, none of the men took Murray's words seriously.

"I see that you were quite happy playing just now. Let's play two more games. When I've had my fun, I'll naturally let you go.

"You're in such a rush. Could it be that you believe you can't win? Didn’t you say so many times you’ll win? Who knows? You might win the next round."

When Murray heard these words, he was quite tempted.

But he wasn't irrational.

If he lost again in the next round, he would end up losing everything under his name. All of his money was now on the line, and he was also in debt.

He couldn’t gamble anymore.

Murray recited the reason in his heart. The look on his face gradually became firm and unshakable.

He once again tried to stand up. "I'm not gambling today. If you didn't ha

    His remarks instantly piqued the man across from him.Bert laughed out loud. "Fine. Since you dare propose such an offer to me, I will accompany you to the end."With a clatter, the blond guy shoved out all of the chips in front of him, arrogantly raising his brows and staring at Caleb with disgust."I've placed all of my chips, so where are yours?"Caleb's steely gaze swept a glance at the frightened Murray. He answered casually, "I don't need any chips. All I need is one move to win against you. If I win, that man will be mine. His gambling debt will be written off."Hearing his statements, the man across the table grimaced in obvious discontent.Just before he snapped, Caleb spoke again, calmly and deliberately, "If I lose, I'll triple the number of chips in front of you plus the gambling debt this man owes you."This was a risky trade.However, Bert was once again tempted.These chips in front of him were not in small quantities.Bert was a veteran of this casino. He freq

    "What? Are you going to smash your own sign? Have you eaten your words?"Caleb had already noticed that Bert was a man who could be counted on in this drug city. Even if he wasn't the boss, he was one of the most powerful figures.That was why he dared to stop Murray with such arrogance.Bert stood up effortlessly and arrogantly, saying, "That's right!"Caleb appeared out of nowhere with empty gloves and gained so much money from him. How dare he tried to leave now!Caleb's demeanor showed no signs of terror as he glanced at Bert."You have won my money! Do you think it’s that easy to walk away? That is, unless we bet again!"Caleb didn't hold back and scoffed, his eyes filled with contempt."You don't want me to make a bet with you. You just want me to lose to you once, right?"Bert lifted his chin, indicating that Caleb was correct."However, you wouldn't have that chance."The corners of Caleb's mouth raised gradually, and his clear, frigid voice spoke word for word.Ber

    However, without waiting for his reaction, two men dragged Murray away as if he weighed nothing.Ember waited impatiently in a black car.She glanced over to the casino and couldn't help but be concerned.Caleb had already gone in for so long. Why hadn't he returned yet?Did he face any danger?Earlier, after Caleb discovered that Murray enjoyed gambling, he had informed Ember right away.Ember was concerned about her mother's condition, so she and Caleb went to the casino immediately.However, since the people in the casino were promiscuous, Caleb did not allow her to accompany him. He preferred to enter alone and place his bet.Ember panicked as she looked out at the dark sky.Just as she was going to leave to check what the scene was like, she noticed two men in black suits walking out of the casino with a person in tow.She soon recognized the man as Murray.Ember opened the car door swiftly after she realized something.The two men in black greeted Ember respectfully b

    Ember raised her head, met Caleb’s eyes, and nodded."Relax. Tell us the truth, or we'll take you to those men. I bet they'll be happy to see you," Caleb said calmly. Terrified, Murray sweated profusely.He hesitated and said after a while, "Alright, what do you want to know? I’m afraid I can’t tell you much. I don't know their plan."Ember clenched her fists involuntarily and asked anxiously, "What is the buyer going to use the herbs for?"She was eager to know whether the buyer did it deliberately to stop her from getting the herbs.That would be troublesome.Murray shook his head, "I have no idea. He contacted me all of a sudden and didn't mention his purpose, but I'm sure he's not doing medical research."Ember nodded in confirmation before asking, "What does he look like? Can you describe it in detail?"Caleb took his mobile phone, selected a photo, and showed it to Murray.Murray trembled with fear when he saw the photo. Ember had not met Henry yet. She looked at the

    "You never seen us today. Just go with your usual schedule. You can leave now."Murray opened the car door and rushed out without looking back.Ember looked at Caleb and asked desperately, "Caleb, who is he?"As she expected, Caleb spat out a familiar name. "Henry."Ember sank into deep thought when she heard that.Caleb called Allen on the phone. "What’s Henry doing now? I need to know right now.""Got it, Mr. Lane," Allen responded immediately. He started investigating after hanging up the phone.Caleb received a message from Allen after a bit.[Mr. Lane, Henry is going to hold a cocktail party soon.]Caleb narrowed his eyes slightly. That cocktail party was the best breakthrough.He put his phone back in his pocket and said to Ember, "Let’s go home."Ember nodded. Caleb frowned and remained silent, thinking about Henry. He was planning to buy those herbs from Henry.Ember was keenly aware of his drifting thoughts, so she leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?""Nothing

    "Okay," Ember responded.She was willing to offer her hug anytime, anywhere, as long as it could comfort her beloved Caleb.It started to drizzle on the way home.Ember got a message from Avery asking when she and Caleb would return. He and Jamie missed them.Ember immediately urged the driver to drive faster. Her children must be lonely right now.Avery and Jamie were waiting for their parents at the front door of Lane Manor.The butler felt sorry for them, so he persuaded, "Avery, Jamie, let’s wait inside. It's raining. You’ll catch a cold."Avery shook his head, holding Jamie's hand, "Thank you, but we want to wait for Mommy and Daddy here."Jamie agreed and smiled.They sat there and waited. Avery felt worried after seeing the rain getting heavier."Where are Mommy and Daddy? Did something bad happen? Is Daddy bullying Mommy again?"Avery was considering tracking their whereabouts with his laptop.The butler was speechless. His young master was so obsessed with his moth

    "Okay, let's go in," Ember said softly.Avery nodded. Ember held Avery’s hand, whereas Caleb held Jamie in his arms. They entered the manor a moment later.After putting Jamie down and letting Avery take her upstairs to play, Caleb called Allen again."Contact Henry and tell him I want to buy the herbs from him."Allen sent Caleb a message immediately after contacting Henry."Mr. Lane, Mr. Brooks agreed to meet for the deal at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."Caleb was having dinner with Ember, Avery, and Jamie when he received the message. They enjoyed their dinner. Caleb was confident about the deal.Caleb met Henry at Time Restaurant."Anything I can help you with, Mr. Lane?"Henry touched his beard and looked at Caleb opposite with a playful expression.Even though Caleb tricked him yesterday, it did not bother Henry at all because he knew Caleb would come to him today.Caleb went straight to the point."I’m here to buy the herbs. What’s the price?" Caleb stated while obs

    "Wait, calm down, Mr. Lane! Let me finish speaking."Henry smiled and asked Caleb to sit down.Caleb was furious."Well? Spit out!"Henry did not look offended. He just smiled instead."I can't sell the herbs to you, but you can compete with other potential buyers. I’ll hold a cocktail party in a few days. Please bring your wife along. This is the only chance left for you to get the herbs. I wish you the best, Mr. Lane.”Henry handed Caleb an invite with gold linings."I’m hoping to see you there."Caleb could not help but frown. He held the invite tightly until it creased.He was holding his anger for the plan.He put the invite in his pocket with an indifferent expression."Okay, I'll consider it."Caleb left the restaurant after saying so.Then, he called Allen with a terrifying expression."Get someone who looks like a wealthy businessman to approach Henry for the herbs. Don’t alert him.""Roger that, Mr. Lane!"-Caleb went home.Ember was waiting for him and exc

    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
