Lahat ng Kabanata ng Vengeance Against That Scum: Kabanata 271 - Kabanata 280

Due to the fact that Susan was Professor Stone's apprentice, Caleb remained polite to her and laughed softly. "Why are you toasting me? We are just strangers..."Susan's eyes were filled with smiles. No one could find fault with her."You may not know me, but I know you. You funded a large number of college students back then. I am one of that group of college students."If it wasn't for your funding back then, I wouldn't be here now. Now that I've seen my benefactor, of course I have to toast you."After saying that, without waiting for Caleb to respond, Susan guffawed some more and looked toward Ember, smiling coquettishly. "I think you won't understand me if I provide you with this reason right, Ms. Sanders?"Ember had been focusing on her food, not expecting Susan to bring up her name.She raised her head and smiled indifferently, with confidence and generosity."Of course. I didn't expect you and Caleb to have such a bond."Susan smiled and replied, "Yes, I didn't expect t

Caleb stretched out and took Ember in his arms, his brow furrowed. "Ember, would Susan's presence impact your work? If it does, I'll go talk to Professor Stone and ask him to send her away."Ember considered briefly before softly shaking her head. "It's better to forget about it."So far, Susan had not done anything unusual other than having ulterior motives toward Caleb.Susan was brought here by Professor Stone. The professor would feel uneasy if Susan were to be sent away for this reason.Ember could still handle the situation so far. Thus, it was better to avoid trouble.Caleb had a serious expression on his face. "Okay. Then I'll leave it alone for now. But if she does anything excessive again, please tell me."Ember was already upset over her mother's situation at the moment, and he didn't want to add to her problems."Okay, I know."Ember discussed her next plans with Caleb when they came home at night after washing up."Although my mother's situation has stabilized, it

"Jamie, this flower is for you. Is it pretty?""This flower is so pretty, let's give it to Aunt Ember when she comes back.""Okay. When Mommy comes back, we'll give it to her. But this one is yours. If Mommy has a pretty flower, you should have one too."Ember couldn't help but smile as she heard Jamie and Avery's voices in the yard.She walked in while calling out, "Jamie and Avery, I'm back."When the two children playing in the courtyard heard her voice, they acted like two small butterflies, stretching out their wings and rushing toward her."Mommy!""Aunt Ember!"Ember hurriedly squatted and extended her arms toward the two children who pounced at her.The two of them crashed into her arms.Ember's heart was about to melt as she heard the two children's gentle voices.She caressed Jamie's cheeks and kissed her on the forehead. After that, she did the same to Avery.She asked in a motherly voice, "Did you two miss me?"After spending some time with Ember, Jamie fell in

"I'll go back to deal with my work. Then I'll immediately rush back to accompany you and the children.""I'll wait for you."Ember tenderly hugged Caleb again after sending him to the airport and couldn't help but nag, "After you go back, don't just focus on work. You should also take care of yourself and eat on time."Caleb was reluctant to leave, but he had to.Ember intended to sleep with Jamie and Avery that night since Caleb was absent.The two children laid on Ember's left and right sides, and she carried a picture book in her hand, telling the story to them in a soft voice.Ember was telling the story of a tadpole searching for its mother.Avery had heard that many times before, but he listened closely because Ember was the one speaking.The story was only halfway through when Jamie couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Ember, did the tadpole find its mom in the end?"Jamie stared at Ember with teary eyes, bringing a sudden sadness in her heart."Of course the tadpole found its

"Good, I'll make a note of this, when I go to the research institute next time, I'll talk to Professor Stone, I'm sure he likes passionate researchers like you."Wilson had a good old-fashioned smile on his face and smiled. "Thank you Dr. Sanders. I’ll definitely do my best to research the special medicine that can cure your mother as soon as possible."Ember was extremely grateful."Dr. Sanders, it's getting late, why don't I invite you to dinner, just so the two of us can sit down and chat about the research at the institute."When Ember heard this, she didn't hesitate and opened her mouth to consent.However, before she could finish her sentence, a low, mesmerizing male voice emerged from behind her."I'm sorry, Dr. Wilson. I'm afraid she can't make it today as I want to bring her on a date."Ember twisted her head in astonishment when she heard Caleb's voice and saw the man approaching her in wide strides.The corners of her mouth couldn't help but bloom into a smile as she
