“Doctor Ember, there has been a car accident. There are five victims who suffered serious injuries, and they’ve all been transferred to our hospital. We don’t have enough doctors.”

A nurse jogged into Ember’s office to report what was happening.

Normally speaking, Ember had already clocked out and it was time that Avery finished school. Originally, she wanted to go pick Avery up and go back home, but this accident ruined her plans.

However, when patients were involved, she couldn’t delay. She agreed to it. “I’ll come soon.”

When she thought about Avery, she didn’t feel he would be safe. Someone must pick him up first. As she was out of options, she gave Caleb a call.

“I have a surgery. Can you pick Avery up and take care of him for the afternoon?”

Ember made it short and concise. She wanted to rush into the surgery theater to start performing the surgery for the patients.

“Alright! Leave Avery to me. Don’t worry.”

Caleb could hear the urgency in her tone. He didn’t tease Ember

    “I’ll listen to my Daddy, mister. I won’t interrupt your meeting.”Caleb hadn’t even replied, but Avery spoke first.Calen patted his head, and then turned to everyone in the meeting room. “Don’t worry, my son’s well-behaved.”Since he had already said that, the others weren’t going to object.“Sir, this software is going to be released into the market. However, we noticed a small problem.”The person-in-charge of the project introduced everything well, but when he was going to conclude, he suddenly added that sentence.“Why didn’t you show me before it’s done?” Caleb didn’t understand the reason, and there was anger in his eyes.They were going to release the software today! To think that there were still bugs they hadn’t dealt with.“We’ve only noticed this problem, and we’ve already told our team to deal with it. We’ll fix this as soon as possible,” the person-in-charge said. He felt frightened and guilty when he saw Caleb’s expression darkening.“What kind of problem? Show

    Once Avery had the computer, his little hands started typing away on the keyboard.While he was very young, he had a lot of knowledge in his little head, and knew how to use the computer well. In less than three minutes, a complete code appeared on the computer monitor.“See? I can say it out loud, and I can code it, too.” Avery pushed the computer to the technician with pride.The technician looked at row after row of perfect code, and his expression turned sour.The technician could only give Avery a thumbs up, and apologized sincerely. “I’m wrong. You’re fantastic!”Listening to the technician’s apology, Avery smiled happily.Caleb was even happier. He was proud that he had a son this smart.“Mr. Caleb’s son is just as smart as him. Looks like we don’t have to worry about inheritance.”“He can write codes to solve a problem at this age. He’s a prodigy!”Everyone in the meeting room started praising him when they saw how the tables turned.Caleb knew that they were flatte

    “You’re here? Do you want me to take you out to eat?” Penelope wanted to get acquainted with Avery first. After that, she would have more chances.However, she had just gotten close to Avery when the boy turned around and darted off into Caleb’s office.Avery could sense that Penelope was up to no good. Caleb’s heart was no longer with her, so she could only lie low.Penelope adjusted her emotions before pushing the office door into Caleb’s office.“What are you doing here?” When Caleb saw Penelope, his smiling face instantly turned serious.Penelope’s smile froze, the edge of her lips still twitching. However, she managed to get it all under control.“Caleb, I know that you probably haven’t eaten yet, so I made some soup for you.” She quickly walked toward him, and put the soup in front of him.“I’ll be taking Avery out to eat later. And I told you before, you don’t have to come anymore.” Caleb’s tone was getting colder, and he wasn’t even willing to look straight into her ey

    “Avery!”When Caleb saw what was happening, he picked Avery up, worried that Penelope would push him away.Things were already getting out of hand, so Caleb immediately told her to leave. “Avery’s getting upset with you here. You should leave.” Penelope couldn’t stay no matter how thick-skinned she was, so she turned and left.“Daddy! I helped you get rid of the bad lady!”When Penelope left, Avery clapped happily. He looked at Caleb smugly, as if fishing for a praise.“What kind of reward do you want? In about half an hour, I can take you out to eat.”“I want to play on the computer!”Ember was usually quite strict. It was rare for Avery to be able to play with any electronics, aside from using it for homework or practice. “Sure. No problem,” Caleb said, indulging him.Very quickly, a laptop computer appeared in front of him. Caleb watched as Avery turned on the computer and started playing some mini-games.Avery always heard from his peers in the kindergarten about how m

    Ember wasn’t interested in joining any meaningless parties. Not to mention, she would have to look at Penelope’s face if she were to attend. That made her not want to join it even more.“But I’ve taken care of your son for a whole afternoon. Can’t you help me with this?”Caleb knew he couldn’t force her when he heard how quickly she refused him. Thus, he used Avery as an excuse.“I can agree with your other conditions—except joining this party.”Ember rolled her eyes at him. This was his son, too. Of course he had to take care of Avery!Thinking about their relationship, she thought that she should still thank him.Caleb gave Avery a look, signaling the boy to say something on his behalf. Back at the office, they promised that Avery would help him to win Ember’s heart again.“Mommy, just say yes, okay? It’s quite hard for him to take care of me today.” Avery shook Ember’s hand, acting cute.When Caleb saw how much Avery was helping him, he smiled in satisfaction.“Alright, eno

It was a complete coincidence. The paparazzo didn’t expect to see them have a meal here, so he hid in a corner and quietly took pictures of them.Before they finished their meal, the paparazzo had already published the videos and photos on the web. The moments Caleb shared some of his food with Ember and Avery were also published.[They’re really a family? They look so sweet.][My third-eye is telling me that they’re definitely a family.

    Caleb didn’t rush it. His voice was firm as his fingers flew on the keyboard, as if he was busy with something.Ember couldn’t believe that he was able to find a clue in such a short time. With that information, it meant that the children could be found very soon.“Can you increase your efforts? Please?” she pleaded.“Of course, it’s no problem if it helps you. But about that party... Can you please come with me? I don’t want to be with another woman. Also, can you visit Grandma with me? She hasn’t been in a good mood lately.”When he said that, there was a hint of affection in his tone.Ember was somewhat taken aback. Since Caleb managed to find those missing children for her, she didn’t mind agreeing to his small requests.Not to mention, Grandma Eva had treated her well. It was fine for her to visit the old lady.“Fine, I’ll agree to that. Please hasten the investigation.”“I’ll do whatever I promised you. Don’t worry, I’ll dispatch more people to investigate tomorrow,” Cale

She didn’t feel any awkwardness as she got into the car.The two of them quickly arrived at the Ferguson residence.“You’re here, Caleb!”Penelope immediately looped her arm around Caleb’s arm. It made them look very close, as if she was used to it.Caleb was getting impatient. Many times, he already told her to maintain a proper distance with him. Yet, she simply refused to listen.“Let go! I have a partner with me,” he snarled, his tone severe. His gaze on her was pure frost. Penelope was shocked, and had no choice but to let go. When she saw Ember walking out of the car, her eyes burned with envy.“Allow me to introduce her to you again. This is my wife, Ember. We’re legally married, so

    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

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.
