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
Allen didn't know the details of the conversation between the waiter and Ember. He just saw Ember talking to the waiter a few meters away before she left with him.Caleb was lost in thought. It was impossible for a waiter to approach Ember for no reason.A suspicious person crossed Caleb's mind—Henry Brooks.It was highly possible that Henry had sent the waiter over because of the acquisition of the herb coupled with the fact that he had been coveting Ember.Henry was most likely the person who had taken Ember away.Caleb felt a sense of crisis at the thought of his wife falling into the hands of some man who had been coveting her. However, he would never allow someone like Henry to bully his beloved, not to mention hurt her.Caleb narrowed his eyes when Henry's name appeared in his mind.A thought struck Allen as he asked, "Could it be that Henry took Ember away?"Caleb turned around and left without replying to Allen.Now, he had to find Henry and see if Ember was with him
Avery walked toward a few computers and turned on all of them one by one. He then fluently operated the computers despite the complicated processes...Avery used Ember's phone number to track her current location.Although he didn't know the identity of Ember's kidnapper, he could at least know her approximate location now.Avery finally found Ember's current location through the GPS after ten minutes or so.He quickly dialed Caleb's phone number and said, "Daddy, I have found Mommy's location.""Hurry up and tell me.""The GPS coordinates show she is in an abandoned brick factory..."Avery told him the exact location.After knowing Ember's exact location, Caleb was so impatient that he immediately ordered his subordinates to follow him to that place. He swore to get Ember back even if he had to look high and low.-Ember's abductor quickly left the banqueting hall and took her to a deserted place.That inhabited place used to be a factory, but later it closed down and was l
However, he was now in a mad rush, as if it was more difficult for him to take off his pants.Upon regaining consciousness, Ember felt the surroundings was a little cold and fumbled around, only to find herself lying on the floor.Shocked, she immediately opened her eyes.After waking up, Ember realized that she was in a strange place. Then, she immediately looked around and saw an ugly man taking off his pants right in front of her.The astonished Ember quickly picked up a brick beside her before the man noticed that she was awake.She planned to hit the man hard with the brick to maintain her chastity if he ever laid a hand on her.The man finally took off his pants, leaving only the underwear on him. He walked towards Ember step by step and suddenly found that she was awake.Ember chided loudly, "Who are you? Get away from me!"The man was extremely ugly. Looking at Ember's beauty, he immediately smiled at Ember and walked towards her step by step."I like it when you resis
Ember held her arm tightly as blood spread from the hem of her clothes. Caleb tensed up as he carefully lifted the clothes on Ember's arm."You are hurt!"Caleb immediately panicked, but at the same time he felt intensified anger towards Henry. Ember groaned in pain, making Caleb's heart ache.Caleb couldn't imagine what cruel deeds Henry had done before he arrived at the scene.Hearing Ember's groan, Caleb made up his mind to make sure that Henry would suffer a fate worse than death."Em, don't worry. I will deal with Henry Brooks, and I will make him pay for what he did to you today at all costs."Caleb comforted Ember lying in his arms.Ember forced a faint smile and replied, "Caleb, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me."Her faint voice made Caleb brokenhearted.The moment they arrived at the hospital, Caleb ran to the doctor with Ember in arms.The doctor cleaned Ember's wounds. After examination, he confirmed there was nothing serious about her condition and infor
Caleb told Allen, "Contact the millionaire in disguise and tell him that I have urgent business with him."Then, Allen quickly informed the millionaire in disguise.After confirming that Ember was fine, Caleb told Avery and Jamie to look after her. He then returned to the company.Caleb went to meet the millionaire in disguise after learning about his arrival."Mr. Lane, you are looking for me.""I believe you know why I asked you to come over."Caleb spoke slowly with an interested look in his eyes."Of course, Mr. Lane, but I'm facing trouble in this task. I'm afraid I won't be able to complete it successfully with my strength."The millionaire in disguise knew Caleb's intention.However, he was well aware of his strength and if he was careless, he would be discovered. Everyone knew that Henry was no easy target."What are your plans for the herb?" Caleb spoke nonchalantly, trying to know what idea the other party had in mind."I will find a way to acquire the herb. I am i
The place where the transaction took place was quite luxurious. It was probably a private residence of Henry.When the millionaire in disguise arrived at the place, Henry was already waiting there."I have brought the cash, Mr. Brooks. Please check the amount."As soon as the millionaire came in, he sat on the couch, opened the box in his hand, and got straight to the point.After glancing at the box on the table in front of him, Henry raised his head and signaled the bodyguard behind him.The bodyguard knowingly walked forward, opened the box and began to count the money.During the process, the two of them didn't stay idle. Henry took the bag beside him and said, "Mr. Simpson, this is what you want. You may count them."The millionaire nodded. He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and had a beard, looking smart and capable.He didn't know anything about herbs, so he had come over with a doctor.After handing the herbs to the millionaire, Henry crossed his legs and sat dignified
"I have brought the herbs we lack. We can continue our research."I only managed to obtain this batch of herbs. How long will it take for you guys to develop the specific drug?"They all were stunned by the news at first, but then they beamed with joy. “You really found the herbs, Dr. Sanders! It's perfect timing!""Yes, our research has just reached a bottleneck. Now that we have the herbs, we can develop the specific drug in as soon as three days!"-This research had been going on for a long time. Everyone was very excited when they finally made a breakthrough except for one person.Since Ember walked into the lab, Wilson continued his research without raising his head.He just chuckled at what Ember said.No one noticed Wilson in the corner, whereas he only cared about conducting his research.-Caleb, on the other hand, didn't remain idle. He had been investigating Henry since Ember went to the lab.Now that they had obtained the herbs, it was time to implement the ne
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
