Joseph, you might not have been in A City these past few years, but you should know all about the things my uncle’s family got up to.

Joseph nodded. “I understand.”

“And this.”

Elijah heaved a sigh as he took a second photograph out. “This… is my father-in-law. Madam’s father. His name is Bennett Tate.”

“He and I had made arrangements to search for my uncle together, but he came here on his own while I wasn’t paying attention. At this point, we don’t know of his whereabouts or even if he’s safe or not. That makes him a valuable person of interest.”

As Joseph nodded and listened intently to the instructions Elijah gave him, he peeked through the corner of his eye at the suitcase placed behind the seats.

The suitcase was so still it seemed that there was no one in it.

It made Joseph doubt himself. Had he taken the wrong suitcase with him…

However, he did not dare lose focus for too long and turned back around to listen to Elijah when he began explaining the next step in t

    Pierre pursed his lips. After spending so many years serving Elijah, he could tell at one glance if Elijah was angry or not when others could not tell. He knew without a doubt that Elijah was now nearing the point of explosion. Although Pierre knew he was trying to help Elijah, the only thing he could do in a situation like this was shut up. “I overstepped.” As expected, Sally was the one thing about Elijah that no one was allowed to touch. He viewed that woman to be even more important than his life! Joseph could not stop his legs from shaking as he stood at the back and watched Elijah rage at Pierre. All Pierre had done was point out the truth, but Sir had already made things so difficult for him. As for him… He felt his scalp go numb as he instinctively gazed at the suitcase. He should not have been bewitched by Madam’s cuteness! After all, the cuter Madam was, the scarier Sir was! Now, Madam had boarded the plane with him, and the plane was about to land. Fo

    “Joseph will be alright with it!” Pierre had made Elijah earlier during the flight, which was why he was now trying his best to suck up to him. Thus, he ignored Elijah’s comments and opened up the suitcase. Elijah did not spare Pierre another glance while the suitcase was being opened. He was staring at the map of the surrounding area, calculating where Bennett would land, and where Franklin and his men would set up their defenses. Until-- “Madam--!!!???” Pierre’s shocked voice rang out abruptly. Elijah frowned and instinctively looked toward where the sound had come from. He was met with the sight of Pierre dashing over. “Sir… Sir, look…” “It’s... Madam!!!” Elijah hurriedly stopped whatever he was working on and strode from one end of the aircraft to the other. By then, the suitcase Joseph had brought on board with him had been opened. Within the space of the massive suitcase was a petite woman who was in the fetal position. She had a pink pillow under her he

    Elijah sighed helplessly as he raised a hand to ruffle Sally’s hair. “Oh, you.” He had asked Felix to help send Sally over to Shawn Summers because he did not want her involved. After all, Bennett was Sally’s father. Even if she had promised to not take any rash action, he knew that confusion would arise just by her taking concern of matters. It would be impossible for Sally to take a back seat once she saw that Bennett was in genuine danger. However, he was to blame for this as well. He had noticed that something was different with Joseph during their journey. Yet, he had been so preoccupied that he had not thought too much about it then. If he had been paying more attention earlier, he would have realized that Sally was hiding in the suitcase. Even if they had been flying mid-air, he would have tried to get the plane to land as quickly as possible so that she could get off. Now, she was already at the destination with him and had even made a promise to him with such

    After all, the man was now the lifeline of the Tate family. Elijah was still mapping out things for Sally when his phone rang. It was from Zoey. “Elijah, have you arrived yet?” Elijah did not keep any secrets from Sally and put his phone on the loudspeaker. Zoey’s voice rang out clearly from the phone. “Daniel Moses has contacted me.” “He asked me to prepare two billion dollars and a private jet for him so that he can escape.” “I agreed, but I also told him I would need some time to get two billion dollars.” “He sent me a video. Uncle Bennett isn’t hurt, but he doesn’t seem all the best mentally.” “Perhaps… he’s feeling a little desperate.” “All he wanted to do was seek revenge on behalf of Nicole, and he thought he had made all the necessary arrangements. He must have never expected to have lost again…” Zoey, who was on the other end of the line, sighed. “That’s all I know right now, Elijah. I’ll continue trying to slow down Daniel. Feel free to contact me if you n

    Night finally arrived.The sky was a deep black, to the point where it seemed like a bleak shade of hopelessness. The moon and stars were not present to offer any light, and it seemed that the clouds had taken over the sky. Elijah was dressed in a black-colored shirt and pair of pants that enabled him to move easily. As he tied ropes and knives on him, he smiled and gazed at Sally as he said, “Can you not come with us?” Sally shook her head vigorously. “I’ll be even more worried if you make me wait here.” “Take me with you. I’ll be okay even if you make me wait in a corner.” Elijah smiled wryly as he raised a hand and beckoned for Pierre to come over. Pierre placed a bulletproof vest in front of Sally. “Madam, please put this on.” “Every person here has been working with Sir for years, and we’ve all got our ways of protecting ourselves. But… you don’t, Madam.” Sally, “...” She turned and looked at everyone else, who was prepped and ready to go. Finally, she had no choi

    ——————The mansion looked large and empty, but it was also well-furnished.The servant led Elijah and Sally from the first floor into the basement. The basement was dark and damp, and the unique smell of the sea permeated from it. The servant opened a large metal door, and then she opened another door. Finally, she stopped in front of a wooden door. “You guys can go in.” “The person you’re looking for is inside.” Elijah narrowed his eyes and held Sally’s hand as he pushed the door open. A table was placed in the room, and two steaming cups of tea were placed upon that table. A man was sitting with his back to them in a wheelchair. Some distance away was Bennett, who looked depressed as he sat tied to a chair, and then… There was Daniel, who was tied up and kneeling on the floor. Both Elijah and Sally were shocked by the sight in front of them. After all, before they arrived here, both Sally and Elijah had thought that the men dressed in black outside were on Danie

    The man’s words sounded funny to Elijah.He actually laughed out loud.“You want to exchange lives with me? Why? Just because you and I look alike?”Elijah was someone who never really liked to laugh. Before he met Sally, even Aunt Leigh and Pierre—who were constantly by his side every day—had never seen him laugh.Now, however, he was laughing at a time he should not be.He laughed as though he had heard the funniest joke ever.A moment later, after he finished laughing, he fixed his gaze on Thomas. “You’re probably living in a dream world.”Thomas furrowed his eyebrows slightly, a hint of panic appearing in his eyes.His older brother was right. This man, Elijah Moses, was indeed very dangerous and very hard to deal with. At least, at this moment, he still felt that he was at an advantage when facing Elijah.His people had completely surrounded this area. The person that Elijah wanted to save and the person he despised to the bone were all at his mercy.The woman at Elija

    This man called Thomas standing before him had a face that was extremely similar to his, but… he was not someone with a lot of depth.It was obvious today’s ploy had not been planned by him.Hence, Elijah put his guard down a little and continued to say coolly, “Have you thought about what will happen to you once I become you?“Since you want to exchange identities with me, you must have some sort of understanding about my person.“What you said is correct. Right now, I indeed do not have the freedom to choose. If you want to exchange identities with me, I can only obey.“But what about after the exchange?“I can do all sorts of bad deeds using your name as Thomas Yoder. After all, the name isn’t mine.“When people talk about me or scold me, the one they’re scolding wouldn’t be Elijah Moses.”Thomas was speechless.He had actually thought about this point before.However, Franklin said…“You wouldn’t.”He looked steadily at Elijah. “You’re a serious and mature person.

    ————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
