Vengeance Against That Scum Chapter 404
"Deliver my message to Mr. Lane before it’s too late."After speaking, Susan hung up the phone without hesitation.Allen sat on the bed and looked at the dim phone screen. After hesitating for a moment, he called Caleb.Caleb frowned in irritation. He muted his phone after a glance and turned to check whether Ember was awakened.Ember had been worried about Mia and did not sleep well for the past few days.Caleb moved carefully and lightly for fear of accidentally waking her up.He came to the living room with his phone and called Allen back."What's the matter?"Allen reported truthfully, "Sorry for calling in the middle of the night, Mr. Lane. Ms. Baker called me just now. She wanted to see you."Caleb was thinking about which Ms. Baker he was talking about."She said it’s about Mrs. Lane’s mother. She sounded urgent."Caleb frowned doubtfully.He wondered what Susan wanted to do.She was smart and would not joke about that."Tell her to come to the research institute n

But Susan forced herself to endure it."Mr. Lane, I’m risking my life to tell you this. I can’t tell it for free."Caleb frowned angrily and said in a deep voice, "Tell me first. It depends on the value of your information."Susan clenched her fists tightly, took a deep breath, and spoke."Last night, Dr. Miller asked me to meet him at a small house at No. 72 Maroon Street."Caleb stared at Susan with murderous intent when he heard that.Susan was frightened by his expression and shrank, "Please don't look at me like that. He approached me anonymously. I didn’t know it was him."Caleb's eyes were cold and solemn, and his jaw was tense, showing his anger."What did he want from you?"Susan had decided to tell Caleb everything she knew. She could not help Wilson because Caleb would notice she was in league with Wilson anyway.She knew what Caleb was capable of. Losing the chance to study abroad would be the least he would do.Susan would never take the risk."Dr. Miller wan

"Just agree with Dr. Miller if he ever asks for your opinion. You don't have to interfere with the issue at the lab. I will take care of it."Susan vaguely understood Caleb's intention, so she nodded slightly."I have to attend to other matters. Ms. Baker, you should go back now."-Ember was groggy from sleep inertia. She turned over subconsciously and felt the cold area next to her.She opened her eyes drowsily, only to find that Caleb was no longer beside her.She grabbed the phone beside her and looked at the time—it was just a little before 5:00 a.m.Where could he have gone at this hour?She no longer felt sleepy after noticing Caleb's absence, so she got up and went downstairs.Just then, the travel-worn Caleb walked into the house with an air of aloofness.When he saw Ember sitting on the couch in the living room, he stopped in his tracks and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little while longer?"Ember's eyes fell on him as she r

Caleb trusted Stephen completely.Stephen was a little surprised when he received a call from Caleb. He couldn't help but ask, "What business do you have calling me at this hour, Mr. Lane?"Caleb looked serious as he told Stephen everything that might happen at the lab.After hearing those words, Stephen's expression changed as he asked, "Someone is trying to sabotage the research? Who is it?""I still don't know their identity, but Dr. Miller contacted Susan Baker before. She is the most suspicious person so far."Stephen grimaced at Susan's name and said in a deep voice, "Tell me what you need me to do, Mr. Lane."Stephen had long known that Susan fancied Caleb.He wasn't surprised that Susan had gotten involved, but he was very disappointed in her.Caleb spoke cautiously in a cold voice, "Professor Stone, I may need you to tamper with your research on purpose after this to create confusion. You have to make everyone else mistakenly believe that the research has gone wrong, e

Ember trusted Caleb completely.She nodded slightly at him and agreed readily, "Okay."She wanted to spend more time with her mother.After agreeing to the suggestion, Ember suddenly realized something. She then looked up at Caleb with a concerned look in her eyes and asked, "Will it delay your work?"Caleb slowly curled his lip with a gentle look in his eyes.He reached out, stroked Ember's head, and replied dotingly, "Of course not. I have left the company's affairs to Allen, so I don't need to worry about it."Your mother matters the most now."It warmed Ember's heart when Caleb still stayed by her side despite the difficult time.A smile blossomed across her fair face as she gently hugged Caleb and said gently, "Caleb, thank you for being willing to be with me all this time.""What are you talking about? We are spouses. Of course I will always be with you.""Alright, don't you have to go to the hospital later? I'll take you there before I head to the lab."Ember nodded s

"Dr. Miller sent me a message today to ask for my answer. I replied to him as you instructed, Mr. Lane."Caleb narrowed his dark eyes. After hearing her words, he nodded slightly with satisfaction.He leaned back on the chair and rhythmically tapped his slender fingers on the table.Without concealing his intention, he got straight to the point and said, "I need you to lure out Dr. Miller and the mastermind behind him. Can you do it?"Susan couldn't help but look confused upon hearing those words."How do I do it?"After a pause, she quickly continued, "Mr. Lane, you already owed me a favor when I divulged the information to you back then. How are you going to repay me if I help you this time?"Susan was a shrewd woman.She knew that this cooperation was dangerous for her, but at the same time it was the best opportunity for her to get close to Caleb.Caleb stared at Susan with razor-sharp eyes. After hearing her words, he slowly narrowed his eyes.An imposing aura emanated f

"I don't have any ulterior motive, Mr. Lane. I just want to take a stand in this matter so that you can completely trust me. I will fully cooperate with anything you task me with."Caleb was quite satisfied with the reply.He nodded slightly and said coldly, "Try to contact Dr. Miller and make an appointment with him to find out about the mastermind behind him."Right now, Caleb wanted to confirm if Henry was the one who had taken Wilson away.With a reluctant look on her slightly crumpled face, Susan replied, "Contact Dr. Miller? This may be a little difficult."Dr. Miller contacted me using a different phone number every time. They are all virtual numbers, so I have no way to determine his contact information, let alone his address."Caleb had a sinister look in his eyes as he curled his lip coldly. He then said firmly, "Don't worry, he will contact you tomorrow for sure."Caleb came out of the lab and went to the hospital.As expected, Ember hadn't left the hospital yet.On

Caleb grimaced at those remarks.He looked coldly at the staff present and questioned, "Is there really no way to proceed the research? Why didn't you all check carefully when you conducted the experiment in the first place? How could you make such a rookie mistake?"After hearing Caleb's questions, Stephen, standing among the crowd, cleared his throat and interrupted him in a low voice, "Alright, all of you, stop arguing. It is normal for deviations and errors to occur during a research. Let's solve the problem now. It's pointless to make a fuss about it."Stephen spoke lightly, but the surrounding researchers disagreed with him.They all looked embarrassed and said reluctantly, "Professor Stone, that's easy for you to say. It will be time-consuming to redo the experiments, and we will run out of time!""Once we missed the deadline given by Dr. Sanders, there will be no way to wake up her mother even if we manage to develop the specific drug."Silence instantly filled the confer

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
