She had not expected things to progress in the way they were now.

She thought she was at no risk of loss.

She had not expected…

Laughing, she slumped against the couch in exhaustion. “Sally Summers, I haven’t lost.

“I, Queenie Tate, have never lost to you!

“I’ve only ever lost to Elijah Moses!

“You’re smart. You found yourself a man who will always protect you.

“Except…”

She gazed upward, first looking at Sally and then at Elijah. “Do you genuinely think she’s some innocent bunny?”

As she spoke, she rolled up the sleeves of her shirt and pants.

Countless ugly scars decorated her arms and legs.

“Sally Summers, you inflicted these scars upon me!”

As she spoke, she pointed to a long scar snaking across her leg. “This was left behind from the time you arranged for a car to crash into me five years ago!

“That car accident nearly cost me my life!”

Her eyes were filled with utmost hatred. “I attended Nicole Larson’s funeral because Dad made me go.

“I hated you at that

    “I swear it wasn’t me.” Sally pursed her lips. She wanted to understand what Queenie meant by assassins, but the latter laughed coldly and said, “You’re invincible now that you’ve won.“At the end of the day, you’ve won with Elijah Moses’ help.“Who else can object if you say it wasn’t you?” Then, she laughed bitterly and said, “Don’t think your troubles are over just because I’ve lost this time.“I’m not the only person on earth waiting to see trouble befall you and Elijah.” The smile on Queenie’s face slowly began turning crazed. “Elijah Moses, you’ve known about this for a while, haven’t you?” Elijah narrowed his eyes and did not say a word as he stared at her. Indeed, he had guessed it a long time ago. Queenie herself was not capable enough to investigate Sally’s past and make use of every loophole she found.At the very least, Queenie knew all about Rohan even though Sally had not even told him anything. It seemed that the amount of information and resources Quee

    Her dad had also said at the start that he could not leave Queenie behind just like that after caring for her as his own for more than 20 years. She understood how that felt. After all, Shawn had cared for her as his own all these years as well.Humans were sentimental creatures. They could not retract their feelings in an instant just because they were wrong. She understood and respected her father’s decision. She had always tried her best to avoid causing conflict between her and Queenie. Who would have expected… It was time they looked for Felix. Elijah’s heart hurt when he saw the brooding look on Sally’s face. He ruffled her hair lightly and asked, “Want to have a catch-up session with Rebecca?” Sally jolted back to her senses and said, “Yes!” She had so much to tell and ask Rebecca! She had lost her memories before this, and Rebecca had run away from her wedding as well. This meant that the two friends, who had been separated for almost eight years, had not had t

    Rebecca pursed her lips as she gazed at Sally in embarrassment. Then, she nodded slowly. “Let’s not even talk about whether I like him or not… We aren’t… familiar with each other at all.” Sally’s mouth widened as she struggled to form words. Felix had done so much for Rebecca, but she claimed not to know him at all… However, it made sense after some thought. Felix might have done a lot for Rebecca, but he did most of them using Sally’s name.To him, Rebecca was a wonderful and beautiful noble being. She was so perfect he did not even dare get close to her. He would hesitate and overthink every sentence he said to her. Sally heaved a long sigh and shook her head helplessly. “Perhaps you don’t remember much about him…” “Yeah…” Rebecca carefully let go of her knees and took the cup of water Sally offered her. As she took a small sip, she said, “My memories of him… are all from high school…“I rarely spoke to him in high school. I would try taking the initiative to talk

    “Sal, Rebs, are you guys done talking yet? I found an amazing corn dog place outside and bought you guys two of them.” Sally shrugged and looked at Rebecca. “I remember you used to love corn dogs back in high school.” Rebecca put down her cup and strode over to open the door. Felix was standing in the cold outside, a broad grin on his face as he held two steaming corn dogs in his hands. Rebecca was suddenly reminded of her high school days as she gazed at him. Felix had done the same thing back then. His face and hands would be red when he ran back from the cold outside. He would place two corn dogs in front of Sally. “I know you like these. Here, have them!” Back then, Sally would shake her head ruefully as she put the corn dogs in front of Rebecca. “I remember I told you before that I don’t like it.” Felix would then scratch his head awkwardly. “Really? I must have forgotten.” Yet, he would still buy them for Sally. Rebecca used to think that Felix had a horrible

    “Why the rush?” Elijah pulled Sally into his arms and ruffled her hair. “How was your chat with Rebecca?” Sally turned to purse her lips in Rebecca and Felix’s direction. “It’s going great.” Elijah looked up at the man and woman standing at the door to the room. Felix was standing stiffly while Rebecca stood in front of him, gazing at him while she held his hand. The woman had a complicated look in her eyes while Felix was staring dazedly. “But it does seem that what Rebecca feels for Felix is more of gratefulness and thankfulness rather than any genuine feelings, right?”Sally pursed her lips. No matter how she looked at the two, they did not seem like they were in love. Elijah smiled and pinched the woman’s cheek lightly. “One step at a time.“They were classmates who haven’t been in touch for years. It’s going to take time for them to get used to their new identities as husband and wife.” Sally thought about it for a while before she nodded. “Oh, so like how we use

    Felix smiled as he raised his glass and clinked it against Sally’s. Rebecca became drunk after their third round of drinks. She slumped drowsily against Felix’s shoulder. Just then, she received a video call from Shanice. She answered the call instinctively. “Rebs!” Shanice, who was on the other end of the line, spoke angrily, “Are you still with Luis Cabero!?“You should break up with him as soon as possible!“Do you know? Dorothy went to Luis’ old home with her boyfriend today!“You’ve been with him for almost eight years and nearly began discussing marriage with him! And yet? His family doesn’t even know you exist!“All these years, you’ve been working so that you can help fund his college tuition fees. Yet, he hasn’t mentioned you even once to his family!“His family still thinks he’s single! “That’s right. Do you remember when he returned home earlier than normal during last year’s Christmas?“His family said he went back early because he was going on a blind dat

    Sally stared dazedly at the police in front of her. Her mouth opened, but she was so shocked that she could not say a single word. “Did you say… Quirinus Banks…“He’s dead?!” The police officer frowned and gazed calmly at Sally. “That’s right.” Sally shook her head vigorously. “But wasn’t he taken away by the police yesterday?” She had watched with her two eyes as Quirinus, Queenie, and Luis were taken away by the police yesterday. How was it possible… “Here’s what happened.” The police officer sighed as he grudgingly explained things to Sally, “Indeed, Quirinus Banks was locked up yesterday, but he was also wanted by S City for economic crimes. Thus, after discussion with S City, our final decision was to send Quirinus Banks to S City because he needed to be present at court for his economic crimes in two days.“However, we ran into trouble during transportation and Quirinus Banks managed to escape. He was found dead near the trash cans behind the hospital at four in t

    ”She’s been accused of murdering Quirinus Banks. The police have taken her away.” Elijah frowned as he calmly explained everything that had just happened to Felix. “I need your help here.” Felix was shocked. There were two things he was shocked about. On one hand, he was shocked because Quirinus had still been a living, breathing person yesterday. Now, he was just a corpse! Moreover, Sally had been brought away because she was suspected of his murder? On the other hand, he was in awe of Elijah’s response. Felix was clear just how important Sally was to Elijah. In fact, Sally was even more important to Elijah than Rebecca was to him. At the very least, he knew that the things Elijah and Sally had gone through together were things that outsiders like him could not and did not dare to imagine. However, Elijah was now oddly calm. In fact, he did not seem the slightest bit panicked. No matter the situation, the man always gave people the feeling that everything was under

    ————One year later. The wedding of Zoey Williams, president of Yoder Corporation, and Thomas Yoder, the young master of the Moses family, was held at A City’s grandest hotel. On the wedding day, Zoey wore a gorgeous wedding gown as she walked over to Thomas. She raised her head and smiled at him. “When I was a kid, Freya always said that I would have to marry her brother when I grew up.” “However, I realized that I did not like Elijah. I much preferred Sis Sally.” “Who would have thought that at the end of the day, I would still end up marrying Freya’s younger brother. As per her wishes, I’ll be taking care of her brother forever, and allowing her brother to care for me for the rest of my life.” Thomas smiled as he pulled her into his arms. “My beloved ZZ, I finally get to marry you.” Freya, carrying Frigg and sitting with the rest of the family, turned to exchange smiles with Bennett. The wedding was joyful and romantic. Everyone attending basked in the loving atmosp

    “If you destroy everything I have, then I’ll destroy everything you have!” Queenie gritted her teeth, a hideous expression on her face as she glared at Sally and said, “If it weren’t for you, I would still be the high-and-mighty young lady of the Tate family!” “It’s all because of you that I became nearly a stand-in for you. I’ve enjoyed many years of lavish treatment at the lavish family, but I was discarded unceremoniously into the dust!” “Sally Summers, it’s all your fault! Everything is because of you!” “I won’t forgive you even if I become a ghost!” “Alright then, go be a ghost!” Elijah narrowed his eyes and raised a hand to grip Queenie’s chin. The hatred in his eyes caused Queenie to smile. “Elijah Moses, choke me to death if you have the guts to do so!” “If you can’t choke me to death, I have multiple ways to make life miserable for you!” “Your sister is just one part of my plan!” “You probably don’t know this yet.” Her lips curled upwards into a bloodthir

    The woman lying in bed frowned and said in a weak, hoarse voice, “You are…” “I’m the woman who did it for a long time with your husband.” She sat down on a nearby chair and watched gleefully as the woman’s face turned increasingly paler. “You have a pretty bad memory, Mrs. Lucca.” “We just met the other day.” She shook her head as she spoke. “It makes sense, though. It’s only normal that a half-dead person would not have a great memory.” “Forgive me for being blunt, Mrs. Lucca. President Lucca told me that you don’t have many days left.” “When you’re gone, he’s going to leave his daughter and marry me.” The woman lying in bed turned pale as she shook her head and said, “Impossible… That’s impossible…” “Quincy, he…” “Nothing is impossible.” Queenie continued smiling a gleeful and flaunting smile. She threw her pregnancy test strip onto the woman’s face. “Look, I’m pregnant.” “How could I have gotten pregnant if we only did it one time? Such coincidences don’t exi

    “In your dreams!” Quincy gritted his teeth together tightly. “I wouldn’t want you even if every other woman on the planet was dead!” The woman on the other end of the line laughed lightly. “You’re going to abandon your child because Freya Moses is dead?” “You planted your seed in my stomach.” Quincy gritted his teeth and was about to continue arguing when Elijah gave him a look. Quincy pursed his lips. “So, what do you want?” “Let’s meet up.” Queenie yawned. “Can you pick a place?” “There’s a cafe nearby the hospital.” Quincy sighed. “I don’t have much time for you, so don’t try talking nonsense after we meet.”“What a man you are, trying to ghost someone after you’ve slept with them.” The woman shrugged nonchalantly. “Alright. You can wait for me. I’ll be there soon.” She hung up. Quincy pursed his lips and looked up at Elijah. “Why do you want me to meet her?” “You’ve got to have some bait if you want to trap someone.” “This time, Quincy, you’re the bait.

    The sharp end of the knife sank into Quincy’s skin. Intense pain came, but he did not seem to feel a thing as he continued pushing. Suddenly, a large, strong, and dry hand took hold of him. Quincy frowned as he tried to continue forcing the knife in, but he could not exert any more strength. Elijah’s cold voice rang beside his ear. “Do you feel like my sister will live on for much longer if you die before her eyes?” “Have you ever thought about how much she likes you and how important you are to her?” Stunned, Quincy turned instinctively to look at Freya. The woman was sobbing controllably. As she gazed tearfully at him, it seemed that she had multiple things she wanted to say but could not find the words. Tears flowed once more from Quincy’s eyes. Ignoring the blood flowing from his chest, he dashed over to Freya and held her tightly. “It’s my fault.” “It’s all my fault!” “Freya… I can’t live without you.” “I cannot… I…” Freya could not stop herself from wr

    After Freya was hospitalized, Quincy canceled all his work plans and spent all his time in the hospital watching over her. Although she never let him in, and although he could only ever gaze at her through the window from afar. However, he insisted on not taking even a step away from her ward. He stood guard there stubbornly, and no one could talk any sense into him. Both Elijah and Thomas could not bring themselves to chide or drive Quincy away when he acted this way. And thus, Freya finally agreed to meet him on the seventh day. The woman’s face in the ward was pale, and she was considerably thinner than from before hospitalization. She looked extremely haggard. Tears welled in Quincy’s eyes when he saw what his beloved looked like from a close distance. It was all his fault. It was all his fault! He had caused her to end up this way! All because of him!“Is there anything you would like to say?” Freya leaned against her pillows. Eyes shut, she seemed to have

    Sally’s lips pursed themselves together when Freya’s name was mentioned. She would admit that she had had a horrible first impression of Freya when they first met. The woman had stripped nearly twenty years of Zoey’s life away from her. Even now, Zoey still bore the scars she had inflicted upon her on her face. And she had even attacked Sally’s mother during her and Elijah’s wedding. However, times had changed, and five years had passed since then. Sally could not bring herself to be cruel toward Freya, who now showed complete remorse. Additionally, she had treated Sam and Little Sarah with genuine kindness lately. Sally had begun to think of her as family. Yet, now, something like this happened. She sighed. “Freya…” “Freya will not be in great condition when she regains consciousness. You need to prepare yourself mentally.” Freya’s illness was in her heart. The sort of illness she had made it so that she could not be made angry, excited, or frantic. If not, not e

    Evonne and Sally were slurping instant noodles when Elijah and Thomas arrived at the doctor’s on-call room. They were starving and had virtually no energy left. The only thing in the room they could use to fill their stomachs was instant noodles. When the door opened, Elijah frowned slightly when he saw his petite wife steadily making her way through a pack of instant noodles. The man strode over and grabbed her bowl. “Unhealthy stuff.” Sally had been enjoying herself and raised her head angrily when her instant noodles were taken away. “I don’t care if it’s not nutritious! I’m hungry… Hubby?” The emotions in the woman’s eyes turned from anger to shock, and then to surprise! Reaching out her arms, she encircled Elijah’s neck and jumped into his arms. “You’re back!” “I missed you so much!” He had been on his ocean trip for more than half a month. They had never been separated for so long since getting back together. The signal on the sea was spotty, and she could never

    When Sally finished suturing the last ruptured blood vessel in Freya’s heart, she was starving, exhausted, and had little to no energy left. Evonne, who was beside her, was not much better off. “It’s steady! The patient’s heartbeat is steady again!” The nurse staring at the electrocardiograph yelled out excitedly! Given the condition the patient was in, if it weren’t for these two doctors, they would never have been able to save her! “Dr. Summers and Dr. Turner are amazing!” “Of course.” A senior doctor standing nearby smiled as he stroked his beard and said, “How did you think Dr. Summers earned her title of genius surgeon?” The young nurse’s mouth widened in surprise. “In that case… why are Dr. Summers and Dr. Turner no longer working as doctors?” The senior doctor sighed. “I guess they have their reasons…” In another corner, Evonne leaned against the wall, exhausted as she turned to look at Sally. “Dr. Summers, do you still plan to stay on as a housewife?” Sa
