"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

Caleb's phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Allen.He had to let go of Ember and turn on his phone.Allen informed him that the dispatched men were well-disguised. Henry didn't notice anything odd and even had an amicable conversation with them.They were about to strike a deal soon, so they had to be prepared.Caleb put away his phone and looked at Ember, whose face was slightly flushed."Henry gave me an invite and told me to take you to the banquet he is going to hold in a few days. Do you want to go there?""Of course," Ember agreed immediately.A few days later, Ember linked arms with Caleb as they attended the banquet. It was crowded with guests drinking together, and many of them came after the batch of herbs.There were many unfamiliar faces at the banquet. Caleb grasped Ember's hand and turned to look at her with a frown."There are many people at the banquet. Stay by my side later and don't go anywhere."Ember nodded, understanding Caleb's concern."Mr.

"Mr. Lane, you are as generous as ever."Henry took a sip of the red wine in his hand and his lips curled into a sneer.He wanted Caleb to taste how unbearable it would be when he didn't get what he wanted."Fill out however I want? Mr. Lane, you've really gone to great lengths to acquire the herb in my hands."As Henry did not take the check, anger flashed across Caleb's eyes."Don't forget what you said before," Caleb reminded in a low voice.Henry burst into laughter while looking at Caleb."I only promised you a fair competition if you attended the banquet. Did I say anything else?"Caleb felt the urge of punching Henry when he was asking for trouble."Your conditions are indeed tempting, but still, I have to think it over." As he spoke, he made himself look troubled.Caleb had to admit that Henry was really a good actor. People who didn't know him well might be fooled by his appearance."You!" Ember's eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger as she pointed at Henry and

"Mr. Brooks, I would like to have a private discussion with you. Would you do me the honor?"Henry understood that the millionaire wanted to ask about the herbs. After excusing himself from the other people, the two of them went to a private room.Needless to say, Henry was the one who had invited the millionaire to the banquet."Mr. Simpson, what brings you here today?"Henry was really good at playing dumb.The millionaire sneered inwardly. On the surface, he replied with a smile, "I came to this banquet today for the goods in your hands of course, Mr. Brooks.""Most of the people at the banquet are after the goods in my hand. But Mr. Simpson, I wonder if you..."Although Henry didn't finish his words, the quick-witted millionaire immediately understood what he meant. The millionaire gestured for the bodyguard behind him to immediately put the password-locked briefcase in his hand on the table and opened it.It was full of cash.Henry's eyes filled with joy, but deep down,

On hearing what Ember said, Caleb had no choice but to nod and leave the banquet because those plots were very important to the company.He reminded Ember before he left.Henry received the news that Caleb had just left the banquet."The troublemaker is gone. Now it's our turn."Ember glanced at the crowd at the banquet, thinking where to get information about the herbs."Hello, Mrs. Lane."Just then, a waiter interrupted Ember's train of thought."Mr. Brooks would like to invite you over to his place. He has something important to discuss with you."Henry's subordinate earlier pretended to be the waiter.She thought for a moment. If she wanted to know the status of the herb, she might as well seize the opportunity to worm information out of Henry since he knew best."Please lead the way."The waiter quickly led Ember to the private room where Henry was."Mrs. Lane, what would you like to drink?"Henry revealed a triumphant smile at Ember's arrival.Ember looked serious a

Ember cursed again and vented all her anger on Henry.As Henry heard Ember cursing him, he had a faint smile on his face..After cursing him, Ember slammed the door and left the private room. It was really suffocating to stay in the same room with such a person.Ember left the private room and went straight to the banquet hall, thinking of getting the subordinate Caleb had left behind to take her home.To her surprise, the entire banquet hall suddenly went dark."A power outage?"There was a big commotion in the banqueting hall. Feeling a little nervous, Ember couldn't help but think the power outage was aimed at her as she encountered this incident right after she walked out of Henry's private room. Before she could make a move, she smelled a burst of fragrance. She suddenly felt that the whole room was spinning around her and her vision gradually darkened until she fell to the ground motionless.Two men, who saw Ember faint on the ground, immediately took her away from the b

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
