"Caleb, what's wrong with you? Did something happen? Why do you look so nervous all of a sudden?"

Ember rarely saw such a nervous and cautious look on Caleb's face. For a moment, her heart skipped a beat out of anxiety.

After taking Ember into the study, the grim-faced Caleb closed the door.

He sat Ember down on the chair. He then looked seriously at her and said slowly, "Em, I have something urgent to tell you now. This matter concerns your mother, so you'd better brace yourself.”

His tone and expression made Ember feel uneasy. She couldn't help but sigh and subconsciously grab Caleb's hand.

"What's going on? Hurry up and tell me!"

For the moment, Ember couldn't think of any emergency concerning her mother.

Caleb placed his palm on her shoulder and patted her comfortingly before he spoke seriously,

"I have sent someone to investigate Dr. Miller in the past two days and found some issues with his old resume. He lacks medical ethics and used human bodies for medical experiments a

    Wilson's sneaky behavior and the fact that he didn't tell anyone indicated that his experiment was dangerous.As the thought crossed her mind, Ember couldn't control herself and clenched her fists. She dug her nails into her flesh, but she couldn't feel the slightest pain."No, I have to go to the hospital right now and stay by my mother's side at all times. She will certainly be fine as long as I stay by her side."As if in a daze, Ember suddenly stood up and pushed away Caleb in front of her. She then raised her feet and prepared to walk outside.She was a little emotionally unstable now. The fact that she wanted to go to the hospital right now worried Caleb immensely.Caleb stretched out his arms and held Ember tightly in his arms with a smooth motion.Looking distressed, he exerted a force with his slender arms and said comfortingly in a deep voice, "Em, calm down and listen to me. We cannot give the game away for now. A crazy research fanatic like Dr. Miller may clutch at st

    When the woman saw the two thick stacks of banknotes in Caleb's hand, she was bright-eyed and said eagerly, "If you need me to do something, just say so. I will do anything as long as it's not illegal and doesn't harm any lives."Caleb sat on the chair with his legs crossed and emanated an air of majesty as he kept his word. "Don't worry, what I want you to do is very simple. "You just need to take this vial of medicine and pretend to be vegetative. You will complete the task after you lie on the hospital bed and pretend to be a vegetative patient for a while."After hearing what he said, the woman had a trace of panic in her eyes and asked in a quivering tone, "There will be no side effects after I take the medicine, right? Will I become vegetative after taking it?"Caleb convinced her with a determined look in his eyes and said firmly, "Don't worry, I didn't call you here to harm you or to make you do anything illegal. It's just because you look like my mother-in-law."This med

    "Don't even think about leaving if you don't explain yourself for what happened today. My car is new. Have you seen the license plate number? This is a limited-edition luxury car! You have to compensate me today for disfiguring my car! "Wilson almost lost his temper upon hearing those words.He was breathing heavily with the usually calm look on his face, trying to hold his temper.He reached out and pushed the thick-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, not bothering to argue with the other party. He then took out his phone and said coldly, "In that case, let's call the police and leave the decision to them."When the tattooed-armed man noticed that Wilson was going to call the police, a flickering light streaked past his fierce eyes. Then, he moved swiftly and snatched the phone from Wilson's hand.The tattooed-armed man threw Wilson's phone to the ground with a thud, breaking it into pieces right there and then.The tattooed-armed man raised his chin high and shouted arro

    The car moved steadily down the road at top speed, heading toward Huntsville Hospital.After taking Mia out of the hospital, Ember calmed her nerves and leaned on Caleb's shoulder, feeling fatigued.Although she had done nothing, she felt like she had been through a great battle, proven by how sore she felt. She said, "Caleb, thank you for what you have done for me."If Caleb hadn't discovered Wilson's abnormal behavior in time, Ember wouldn't have known it by now.Mia would continue to suffer from Wilson's evil scheme in the hospital. She really couldn't imagine the consequences.After hearing her words, Caleb gently held Ember's hand and his deep voice was filled with indescribable tenderness."What nonsense are you talking about? As spouses, we should share the joys and sorrows together. Your mother's affair also concerns me. That's what I should do in the first place."I'm going to get angry if you keep being courteous with me."After Ember heard Caleb's serious words, she

    Ember and Caleb took Mia to Huntsville Hospital.A large number of doctors and experts were waiting for them at the hospital.As soon as the car stopped, the medical staff carried Mia into the emergency room on a stretcher.Stephen teamed up with several experts to conduct a comprehensive physical examination on her.Meanwhile, Ember and Caleb were waiting anxiously outside the emergency room.As time passed bit by bit, Ember gradually felt more and more anxious with beads of sweat on her forehead and her palms were sweaty."Why hasn't Professor Stone come out yet?"Ember's heart tensed as her imagination ran wild, wondering if her mother was in bad condition.Upon noticing her anxiety, Caleb held her tightly before he said, "Don't worry, may God bless your mother. She has survived so many years, and nothing will happen to her this time."Besides, there are Professor Stone and so many experts here. Even if you don't believe my words, you have to believe in their professional a

    Stephen was grim-faced with a tired look in his eyes and spoke truthfully in a hoarse voice, "Your mother is in a bad condition."The news struck Ember like a bolt from the blue. She was about to collapse, but fortunately Caleb held her in time.Stephen continued seriously, "Your mother was in bad condition to begin with and only has three months to live."It is possible for her to wake up if the specific drug is developed within three months. She woke up from a coma this time, but it was not a normal awakening."Stephen spoke at a steady pace, but every word that came out of his mouth was like a knife into Ember's heart."We finally found the reason why your mother was able to wake up after a night of examination. Someone injected her with a neuroactive drug. This drug could stimulate a vegetative patient and make them stay awake for a short time, but in fact, it's just a drastic measure."Prolonged injections of this drug will completely deplete the patient's bodily functions u

    When Stephen saw Caleb, he slowly shook his head without the slightest change in the facial expression."I've been practicing medicine and treating diseases for so many years, and I have seen countless cases of vegetative patients, but this is the toughest case I've ever encountered. I am really at my wits' end."Stephen was an expert in the study of vegetative patients. Since he said that it was the most difficult case he has ever encountered, it seemed that Mia's condition was really serious."You better advise the patient's family members not to get too emotional during this period. If they spend more time chatting with the patient, it will greatly increase her chance of waking up."It is best if the family members don't express their negative emotions in front of the patient, or else it will affect her condition as well."Caleb slowly narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly with a grim expression on his face."I know. I'll count on you then, Professor Stone."Ember was current

    "Wait a minute, both of you."Caleb called out the two caregivers in a cold voice.The two caregivers stood in front of him tremblingly. Hailey asked cautiously, "Do you have any order for us, Mr. Lane?"Caleb was serious-looking as he got straight to the point and said, "You two can pack your things and leave today. I will double your wages as compensation, and you don't have to come here starting from tomorrow.""Why?""Did we do something wrong, Mr. Lane? If we did something wrong, you can point it out and we are willing to turn over a new leaf."The two caregivers were shocked by Caleb's words, revealing confused and frightened looks on their faces."I'm firing you not because of your work-related issues, but because the patient is going to be discharged from the hospital and there will be no need for caregivers in the future.""Alright, I don't need you here anymore, so you can just pack your things and leave."The caregivers looked confused upon hearing those words.Did

    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.

    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?
