On one side, the accusations were flying high.

On the other, Caleb received a message and rushed over.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Ember dressed in thin clothing and surrounded by the deceased little girl's angry family members.

Ember remained silent in the face of everyone's accusation. She pursed her lips and stood rooted in place.

Lugh stood in front of her, shielding her. Like her, they both silently endured the family's anger.

Feeling a twinge in his heart, Caleb walked up quickly and said, "You came all the way here to cause a scene. It's just for money, isn't it? Speak up. How much do you want?"

"How dare you?! My daughter is dead, and you want to insult me?"

The girl's father stared at Caleb with wide eyes, his emotions becoming increasingly unstable as time passed.

Caleb dismissed the man's words and said, "Stop talking nonsense. It's all about money, isn't it?"

He wanted to settle it with money, but the girl's father was uncontrollable.

Penelope and Samuel reached an agreement and immediately left the scene.She arranged for professional troublemakers to assist Samuel in causing a scene.On her phone, there was a video. In the video, Ember had her head lowered and was drinking a pack of grape glucose syrup.It was a small matter, but it could become an explosive topic in the hands of someone with ill intentions.She smirked slightly and dialed the paparazzo's number. "I've got some wonderful material for you."The paparazzo frowned, "What kind of material?""A returned overseas doctor from Haverhill Hospital caused someone's death and happily got herself a drink afterward. Where do you think she got the money for that drink?"The paparazzo initially wanted to dismiss it. But upon hearing her explanation, he suddenly understood and purchased the video.Then, the video was released. At first, it didn't cause much of a stir. But later, with the emotional posts from marketing

    At this moment, Samuel arrived at the hospital with a group of people."Incompetent doctor! Get out here!" He shouted loudly downstairs, attracting a crowd of onlookers."Everyone, help me get justice! My daughter was perfectly fine when she was brought to the hospital. After the surgery, she died. Isn't this a medical accident?!"We ordinary people can't deal with them, and the hospital is helping them. Was my daughter's death in vain?!"Samuel's emotions were intense. He rallied the crowd and unfurled banners, insisting on seeing Ember.The commotion at the entrance was loud, and Lugh looked through the window with furrowed brows.Having heard the commotion, Ember was about to go downstairs when Lugh stopped her."He clearly has malicious intentions with how he's causing trouble here. Going down now will only fuel their arrogance. Ember.""Avoiding it isn't a solution either. It'll make us look guilty." Ember shook her head, a determined expression on her calm face."No need

    Seizing the opportunity, the reporters crowded into the lobby."Dr. Ember, can you confirm that your surgery was truly done according to the standard procedures?""Dr. Ember, we heard that you were on leave that day. Why did you return to perform this surgery?""You just returned from outside that day. Was there a possibility that you made a mistake due to fatigue?"-The reporters were relentless, trying to find loopholes from various angles.Lugh felt uneasy hearing this and positioned himself in front of Ember. "If you continue to press aggressively, we will have to take legal measures!""Dr. Ember, please answer our questions!"Ignoring Lugh completely, the reporters sidestepped him. They thrust the microphone towards Ember and held their large cameras in her face, waiting for her response."Where's the security team? Get them out of here!"The situation was chaotic, and it took considerable effort for the security guards to push through the crowd.Ember frowned. The r

    Ember casually glanced at the unfamiliar incoming call when the phone rang. She remembered this was another number Caleb used after she had blocked him, so she had no intention of answering.Lately, she had been bothered a lot and had no interest in discussing the collaboration with Caleb. Hearing her phone continuously ring, Lugh found it strange and asked, "Ember, why aren't you answering?""It's Caleb," Ember replied nonchalantly.As soon as she said that, the ringing stopped.However, the phone rang again shortly after. Noticing Ember's calm demeanor, Lugh suggested, "Ignoring the call isn't a solution. How about I answer and see what he wants?"Ember shrugged indifferently. "Sure, go ahead."As soon as the call connected, Caleb's voice came through, "Em, the public opinion can't be suppressed for the time being. Don't worry; I'll figure something out.""You're suppressing the comments?" Lugh narrowed his eyes, somewhat surprised.Upon hearing Lugh's voice, there was

    Netizens quickly changed their tune, and soon, another comment climbed to the top of the trending list—The Most Beautiful Doctor, Ember Sanders.With the matter finally resolved, Lugh's expression softened. He pointed at the comment and said with a playful tone, "Ember, you've been voted the most beautiful doctor. Avery will surely give you a big reward when you go home tonight."Ember glanced at him and said, "You're always thinking about that brat. Keeping him at home isn't the solution, you know? When things stabilize, I plan to send him to kindergarten.""Alright, I'll help you check it out then." Lugh was very supportive, and the two of them looked into various kindergartens.Recently, with Lugh's help in taking care of Avery and the hiring of a nanny, Avery was well cared for. When Ember returned home, the little boy rushed into her arms."Mommy, I've been so incompetent! I made you suffer so much," Avery complained.Ember was unsure if she should laugh or cry at his wo

    Caleb opened his mouth to say something, but he suddenly felt powerless in the face of Ember's caution and composure.Avery peeked out from behind and made a funny face. "I don't believe you. Stay away from Mommy and me. Don't think about bullying Mommy!"Avery's words, accompanied by a wrinkled nose, deeply pierced Caleb's heart. Looking at the determined eyes of the mother and son, he had no choice but to give up.He handed the nutritional supplements he brought to Ember without hesitation. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice, "If you don't want to see me, I'll leave. Take the things."After he finished speaking, he turned around and left quickly as if afraid of Ember's rejection.Seeing Caleb's somewhat lonely figure, emotions stirred in Ember's heart. It left a slightly bitter taste in her mouth."Mommy! Mommy!" Avery called several times before Ember snapped out of it. She turned around, burying herself in Avery's shoulder. Her eyes were a b

    “What your favorite foods are, what your favorite activities are, where your favorite places to have fun are... I’ll remember all of it.”There was sincerity in Caleb’s eyes, and his handsome face seemed to have the same sincerity Avery had.Avery seemed to be touched by his words. He frowned, deep in thoughts.Caleb tried to touch his hand. Avery immediately moved away, but in truth, he didn’t hate Caleb touching him that much.It was a good beginning, Caleb thought to himself in glee. “I requested for this limited-edition action figure to be made. Do you like it?”He reflected upon his actions last night, and then immediately asked his men to find all information on Avery. He needed to hit the boy’s sweet spot, so he asked someone to make Avery’s favorite action figure.While Avery was smart, he was still a child in the end. When he saw that the action figure he had wanted for a long time appeared in front of him, he looked at it excitedly.However, he was still wary of Caleb

    The expression on Caleb’s face instantly turned gloomy, but the speaker didn’t notice him.Ember was also getting a headache when she noticed Caleb’s sudden anger. She didn’t expect that everything would happen at the same time. She then gave Lugh an apologizing look.The salesman was still trying to sell, as if he couldn’t see the conflict brewing between them.Caleb took a step forward and instantly got closer to Ember, shortening their distance. Then, he rejected the salesman. “No thanks, since this man is an outsider. I’m not so generous to let my wife take a picture with someone else.”Only then did the salesman seem to have realized what was going on, and looked at them with wide eyes. Then, he quickly apologized. “I’m so sorry, sir. I didn’t know.”And then, as if he was trying to salt Caleb’s wounds, the salesman was still mumbling something as he left. “That’s weird. Those two look more like husband and wife.”Caleb was at the verge of exploding, but Avery was giggling

    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.

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.

    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.

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.
