After a pause, his cold voice suddenly sounded hostile. "Even if you aren't going to say anything, I can find out the truth through other means. It's just that it will take some time."However, you will have a different fate by then."It didn't take long before Queenie's back was drenched with sweat.She bit her lip. Just when Caleb's patience wore thin, she suddenly said, "I'll tell you, Mr. Lane! Penelope Ferguson gave me this IP address and told me to find a way to reveal it to you. I was just a pawn. I never meant to harm anyone, nor did I know what the IP address was for."Mr. Lane, I really have nothing to do with the leak of the company's confidential documents. I was used by Penelope. She did all this."After hearing those words, Caleb clenched his fists on the table with a menacing look and his eyes darkened."Mr. Lane, that's all I can account for. I know nothing else."Queenie blurted out everything she knew and even said things she shouldn't have said, fearing that

For the sake of the appointment with Caleb, Penelope purposely chose a beautiful outfit and put on exquisite makeup before setting off.Penelope showed up at the cafe at 3:00 p.m. sharp.She was dressed in a red maxi skirt, wore red lipstick and had black sunglasses resting on her high nose bridge. She was holding an elegant purse as well.After glancing around the cafe, she accurately located Caleb in the corner.Penelope strode over and said with a smile, "Caleb, I hope I'm not late."She deliberately sounded coquettish. Then, she bent down, put her long hair up and sat opposite Caleb.When Caleb saw Penelope coming over, he walked towards her with a cold gaze.He got straight to the point and asked coldly, "Did you give the IP address to Queenie Brown?"It never occurred to Penelope that this was the first thing Caleb would say after he asked her out.She trembled violently with a trace of panic in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and her mouth twitched into

Penelope played her trump card when she noticed Caleb didn't believe any of her explanations just now.She quickly made herself look pitiful in a flood of uncontrollable tears as she said aggrievedly, "Caleb, how could you do this to me? Even if you don't like me, you shouldn't misunderstand me for something I didn't do."I'm so sad that you're doing this to me."As Penelope spoke, she reached out and covered her chest, looking utterly devastated.Her pretense had no effect on Caleb. Instead, it made him feel disgusted.The man's handsome face was devoid of warmth as he stood up with one hand in his pocket and looked down at Penelope."Penelope, wipe that look off your face. It is ineffective against me. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and I will never accuse you."Just as Penelope was about to defend herself again, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.Ember pushed the door open and walked into the cafe.She bit her li

However, Ember glared at Caleb as soon as he opened his mouth.Ember stared coldly at him, still giving off an aura of rage."Mr. Lane, please do not interfere with what I am going to do next. I will show no mercy if you go against me for the sake of your confidante."After saying these words, Ember stopped looking at him. She turned around and strode out of the cafe.Caleb stood there stunned for a while. When he came to his senses and wanted to chase after Ember, she was long gone.-When Ember returned home in the evening, Avery rushed up to her and asked seriously, "Mommy, are you still angry?"Facing Avery, Ember would keep her temper.She chuckled, "I'm not angry anymore."Avery looked seriously at his mother's facial expression. Although she said she was not angry anymore, he could tell that she had not forgiven his father yet.Avery grasped the tip of Ember's little finger and shook it gently. "Mommy, Daddy told me that he already knew he was wrong.""Let's forgive D

The hospital was bustling today. Ember had to treat many patients, but she was a little absent-minded."Dr. Sanders, how's the condition of the patient just now? The patient is still waiting outside. Are the results out?"The nurse's voice suddenly sounded, bringing Ember back to her senses.Ember has been absent-minded many times since this morning.She felt immensely guilty for being distracted, so she smiled apologetically at the nurse. Then, she cleared her head and resumed working seriously."The report will be out soon. Go tell the patient to wait for a moment."When the nurse left, she took a hard look at Ember and reminded kindly, "Dr. Sanders, you should rest for today if you are not feeling well."There were many patients waiting for treatment. How could Ember afford to rest? She shook her head lightly as her mouth twitched."I'm fine. Let's continue."After getting busy with work, Ember came downstairs to the hospital to get some air during breaktime.There was a s

Jamie agreed.When Lugh saw her nod, his lips curled into a relieved smile."Since you've already invited Jamie, why don't you invite me to your house as well?" Lugh deliberately joked in a soft voice.Ember's beautiful eyes sparkled in the sunlight as she chuckled. "Of course. You may come over with her tonight."-When Ember returned home in the evening, she brought some ingredients and was prepared to cook for the children.Seeing his mother carrying bags of ingredients, Avery blinked and asked, "Mommy, are we going to have guests in the house today?"Ember put down the items in her hands. She then reached out and rubbed his nose as she said pleasantly,"Yes, Jamie and Lugh are coming over today. Can you entertain her later on my behalf?"Avery immediately cheered and clapped his hands. "Okay, okay, I'll take care of Jamie on your behalf."The doorbell rang.Avery jumped down from the sofa and shouted happily, "Mommy, I'll open the door. It's Uncle Lugh and Jamie!"Ember

Lugh picked up Jamie and whispered in her ear, "Jamie, say goodbye to Aunt Ember and Avery."Jamie had a great time with Avery. She waved her hand with a smile on her adorable face and said, "Goodbye, Aunt Ember and Avery."-To Lugh's surprise, he met Caleb downstairs while carrying Jamie.The moment he saw Caleb, he became vigilant and tensed up, tightening his grip on Jamie.Caleb's emotionless face darkened as he gazed at Lugh.Jamie was terrified looking at Caleb's cold face, so she kept moving her body close to Lugh.Sensing Jamie's uneasiness, Lugh patted her on the back."Mr. Lane, what can I do for you? If you have no business with me, I will take the child home. You scared her."Caleb's eyes fell on Jamie, his expression softened. He then took a deep look at Lugh and spoke in hushed tones, "Let's talk in private."Lugh did not refuse him and replied, "Okay."He hugged Jamie and put her in the car. Then, he reached out and touched her head to comfort her, "Jamie, wa

After a long time, Caleb stared at Lugh with a steely gaze and looked as if he was strategizing.As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was full of threats and warnings. "Lugh, I will follow the formal procedures. You'd better brace yourself for the consequences of taking my child away."His child would always belong to him. No one could take her away.With that, he ignored Lugh and strode away.Lugh stood still for a while.When he heard Jamie gently tapping on the car window not far away, he came back to his senses and strode towards Jamie."Uncle Lugh, what were you talking about with that man?"When Jamie saw Lugh come back, she looked innocent as she asked curiously,This was the first time that Jamie had become curious about a stranger.Helpless, Lugh replied with a smile, "We talked about some issues between adults."After Lugh left with Jamie, Ember and Avery sat on the couch and watched TV.Avery leaned on Ember's arms and said softly, "Mommy, I like Jamie very m

What Lugh did to Jamie and Ember was unforgivable.Much to his irritation, Lugh knitted his brows and scratched his head. For a moment, he really didn't know what to do.Finally, he sighed feebly. He did not tell Ember the truth in the end.He thought about waiting a little longer. Once Jamie's condition was stabilized, he would tell Ember the truth in person and apologize to her.-On the other hand, Penelope couldn't swallow the anger and the hatred in her heart grew when she recalled the severe humiliation she had suffered at Ember and Caleb's hands.It was all Queenie's fault for betraying her!Penelope couldn't let it go.She made a phone call with a ferocious gaze as she gritted her teeth.
