Now that one person spoke up, the others began to voice their own opinions. "It's all over the Internet right now. I don't care what relationship you have with Mrs. Lane—you must give us an explanation!"Hearing these remarks, Caleb's handsome face darkened, his eyes keen and stern as he stared across everyone around him. His voice was incredibly icy."Who here has evidence in your hands that she leaked the company's secrets?"Once this was uttered, they all looked at each other in surprise.Right. None of them had evidence.Caleb laughed bitterly before snapping, "You have no evidence at all. You simply saw some rumors on the Internet and believed them? Isn't it a little too arbitrary?"One of the senior directors was displeased with what Caleb said. "Mr. Lane, it's true that we don't have any evidence, but there’s no smoke without fire. Why isn't there a story on the Internet that I'm the one who spilled the secrets? There must be a reason for the rumors about Mrs. Lane!"Ther

When he noticed her holding her phone and smirking, he covered his mouth and drew back from the doorway.Closing the door behind him, he silently took out his phone and sent a message to Caleb."Daddy, I've already helped you solve those public opinions on the Internet. Mommy also saw it, and seems to be very happy about it."At the president's office in Lane Group, Allen was holding a tablet, and Caleb was reporting the inc

Caleb opened his mouth instinctively. "Don't worry, Avery. I will definitely apologize to your mommy. By the way, I still owe you a reward. You can think about what you want."Avery noticed some movements outside the door at that moment. "Daddy, I need to end the call now. I'm going to accompany Mommy."-The Fergusons have been struggling for the last three days.The company had declared bankruptcy, which led to their lives being ruined. Wherever they went, they were met with blank stares and derision.The few families that had previously befriended them had likewise distanced themselves.Penelope sat on the couch in her living room. Her parents sat across from her, both with serious expressions on their faces.Madam Ferguson, Penelope's mother, sighed hopelessly. She couldn't help but chide, "How could you be so stupid? Serves you right! Now, we have fully angered the Lanes!"Penelope frowned in displeasure. "Can you please shut up, Mom? Do you think I want this to happen in

At that moment, Ember sensed something was wrong.Why were Avery's cheeks so hot?Her expression changed drastically as she hurriedly stretched out her hand to feel Avery's forehead.After only touching it for a moment, she quickly withdrew her hand.Avery was currently burning up with a fever.No wonder he was extraordinarily quiet today. He didn't even make a fuss over wanting to listen to a bedtime story or playing with toys. Instead, he went to bed on his own.Ember knew that she had gotten careless this time.She scooped Avery into her arms while gently calling out, "Avery? Avery, can you hear me?""Mommy, I need a hug. I'm cold."Feeling distressed, Ember took him into her arms while cooing softly, "Let's get dressed, Avery. I'll take you to the hospital right now."The child was burning hot, and Ember's heart was burning with it.She frantically changed Avery's clothes and swiftly carried him out the door.Only when Ember arrived at the garage did she discover that t

Upon hearing the doctor's diagnosis, Caleb visibly relaxed as he smiled."Thank you, doctor."After the doctor left, Caleb personally carried Avery to the hospital bed and tucked him in. He made sure to remove Avery's hands from under the covers carefully afterward.Caleb was gentle the entire time, and his demeanor was serious and meticulous, as if he were handling a valuable item.Ember had rarely seen such an expression on Caleb. She glanced at the man's solemn side profile, clearly lost in thought.Now that the treatment was done, Avery was finally doing better.Finally, Ember was relieved."Caleb, thank you," she looked at him and said seriously.However, Caleb scowled in displeasure.His voice was flat, and he replied firmly, "Ember, you don't need to thank me for this kind of thing. Avery is also my child, and it's perfectly fine for me to care for him as a father."Caleb was filled with shame as he spoke.Yes, he was Avery's father, but for so many years, he had fail

Avery winked at Caleb again.The boy thought he was being inconspicuous. The truth was, Ember had already seen him making eye contact with Caleb.She couldn't help but giggle on the inside, an amused smile perched on her lips.Finally remembering how to start the conversation, Caleb coughed quietly and looked at Ember, his expression incomparably solemn."Ember, I want to apologize to you about the matter of the company's secrets being leaked. I didn't clarify the situation before I asked you tha question. It's my fault, but I've never doubted you in my heart."Avery might be lying on the hospital bed, but he didn't forget to help Caleb out. "Mommy, Daddy already knows it's his fault. Please forgive Daddy this time."Ember laughed quietly as she remembered the recent eye contact between the father and son. "Good. I'll forgive you for now just because Avery says so."When Eva and Caleb talked on the phone, she learned that Avery was in the hospital because of a flu.She couldn't

"It's okay, Grandma. I'm not tired. You can go back first."Caleb was worried about Ember and Eva.He stood up with a light cough. Then, he said to Eva softly, "Grandma, you should be resting at this time. If Ember is tired, I'll stay and look after Avery. Tell the driver to send you back now."When Eva heard this, she shot Caleb an upset look. She said to Avery, "Avery, let me stay with you tonight, okay? I will tell you a story."After that, Eva winked at Avery.She turned to face Caleb with a serious look on her face. "You've been busy dealing with troublesome matters at the company the whole day. There are still a bunch of things waiting for you to deal with at the company tomorrow, so it wouldn't be appropriate for you to stay."You and Ember go back together. I will take care of Avery here. There’s no need for you two to worry about."Avery was clever. He understood what was going on and instantly knew what Eva meant. He couldn't help but flash a fox-like smile as he nodde

The car drove slowly down the road that night.Caleb's thin fingers grasped the steering wheel as he looked ahead. The corner of his eye unknowingly peeked at the person sitting on the passenger side."Ember, you should have met Jamie by now." Caleb's voice rang out cold in a quiet car.Upon hearing this question, Ember stiffened up immediately. She was also confused by the sudden topic. "Why are you suddenly talking about this?"Caleb kept his eyes on the road, and his tone was still easygoing. There was nothing odd about it."Nothing. It's just that I happened to see Lugh holding a little girl a few days ago. I never heard about him getting married or having a girlfriend. I wonder… where did his child come from?"His question appeared casual, yet it unwittingly probed Ember's emotions.Ember's brows were slightly furrowed, and the same doubt crept into her heart.She had previously pondered whose child was that.Lugh had stated that it was a patient, but he had never seen th

Penelope's hand movements came to a halt, and she turned her head to look at the neighbor. She calmly asked, "Does Queenie Brown live here?""Queenie? She left a long time ago. She doesn't live here anymore.""Moved?"Penelope gave a vicious stare, and her frigid voice demanded, "Then where did she go?""I don't know. If you know her, you should call her."After that, the neighbor closed the room door with a loujd bang.Penelope stood alone outside Queenie's apartment, her heart pounding with fury.Just as she was losing her patience and about to leave, she noticed a familiar person.Wasn't this Queenie's boyfriend?Penelope's attractive eyes gradually narrowed, and the corners of her mouth rose upward, displaying a determined smile.Queenie's boyfriend had already moved in with Queenie, and he returned today to take some things away.Penelope recognized him at first glance and followed him leisurely.When he came out of the apartment and took a cab, she immediately drove a

Without much thought, Queenie's boyfriend told Penelope how Queenie had betrayed her."Her boss, Caleb, offered her double the price for the information she traded with the other party. He also promised her a good position in the company, so she agreed."Hearing these, Penelope had a murderous look.Quennie! How dare she betray her for such a tiny gain! She was the reason why Penelope was forced to suffer!Since Quennie betrayed Penelope, the latter would make sure that Queenie must suffer too.On the second day, Ember and Caleb arrived at the hospital to take over Eva's shift.Caleb attentively made breakfast. When he and Ember entered the hospital room, he took the initiative in asking, "Grandma, how was your rest last night?"Eva and Avery had a wonderful time together. She smiled and stood up, though she kept looking at the couple sneakily."Avery and I are getting along very well. We slept very well last night. You guys don't need to worry."Avery sweetly called out, "Mom
