The atmosphere in the restaurant immediately turned silent.

Chelsea was just about to begin bragging about how she and Seth were engaged now. However, she was forced to swallow her words immediately.

She pursed her lips and gazed indignantly at Seth, who was sitting beside her. “Seth, take a look at your ex-girlfriend. How could she say that about me?!”

Evonne raised an eyebrow and swept a cold gaze across Chelsea’s face. “You already know that I’m your fiancé’s ex, but you still pretended to be on good terms with me. Was this not the outcome you were looking for?”

When she finished speaking, she grabbed Thomas’ arm and said coldly, “Hubby, let’s go sit there.”

The only thing Thomas could do was offer Seth a wry smile as he allowed Evonne to drag him to the other end of the restaurant.

“It’s been so many years, but she’s still as obnoxious as ever!”

Although they were at two separate ends of the restaurant, Chelsea’s every word still managed to travel into Evonne’s ears b

    Both Evonne and Thomas frowned at the man’s sudden arrival. “What are you doing?” The woman glared coolly at Seth. The look in her eyes was as cold as the snow during the freezing winter months. “I’m not doing anything.” Seth laughed coolly as he picked up the bowl of banana almond flax oatmeal that they only had a spoonful of and turned to walk off. Evonne narrowed her eyes and said in a cold voice, “Sir, what are you doing?” “I quite like this bowl of oatmeal.” Seth did not even turn his head around as he said, “I’m worried that you’ll become a fan of this oatmeal after finishing it and frequent this restaurant in the future, Ms. Turner.“My fiancé would not like to bump into you.”Thomas, “...” What the f*ck was that reasoning? How could that man be so unreasonable? “Mr. Greene.” The man’s blood boiled, and he disregarded his relationship with Seth as he stood, saying, “Don’t you think you’re being too overbearing?“We ordered this bowl of oatmeal, but you’r

    When they walked out of the restaurant, Evonne grinned and clapped Thomas on the shoulder. “Thanks!” Thomas scratched the back of his head bashfully. “What are you thanking me for…” “I would’ve been humiliated today if you hadn’t gone along with my act.” The woman stretched and tilted her head up to look at the blinding sun. It was a sunny day out, and she was in a pretty good mood for her first day of work. However… She shook her head, trying to rid herself of those bad emotions. ‘Stop thinking about it. Stop caring about it!’He had turned from the good man who cared about her in every single way into a jerk who only had eyes for that b*tch, Chelsea Greene! She would be a fool to continue thinking about that bastard! “It’s all things I should do…” Thomas smiled shyly. “After all, you and I are husband and wife to everyone else…” “Yeah. We’ll help each other climb to higher places!” Evonne smiled. “I’ll make strawberry mousse for you tonight in return for your

    “I would never…” He was saying no, but his every action betrayed his innermost thoughts. Elijah frowned slightly but did not say anything else. After wiping the table clean of coffee, Thomas took the papers back to his seat. He did not dare to look Elijah in the eye anymore. “We’re in the office now, and it’s working hours. I don’t want to discuss private matters with you!” Then, he hurriedly opened the file in his hands, wanting to pretend he was seriously working. However… he froze when he saw what the file in front of him held.His heart stopped beating, his eyes stopped blinking, and his brain stopped working.These papers did not have anything to do with Yoder Corporation. Instead, they were related to his aunt’s car crash. The papers recorded, in clear detail, the before and after of the surroundings where his aunt’s car accident took place, the car that had crashed into her, and information on the driver who drove that car. It even showed the driver’s bank record

    Thomas was shocked speechless. Elijah, who was sitting nearby, was much calmer. “In that case, everything makes sense now.“Five million dollars was transferred to the driver from an offshore account belonging to a small company under Charles Yoder’s name. It proves that Simon and Charles Yoder were involved in this accident.” Seth nodded. “It seems so at this point. However, we can’t convict Simon with just this transaction record. We need more evidence.”“But…” Thomas raised his head. His throat seemed to tighten, and his voice shook as he said, “Could it be possible…“That it was Uncle’s illegitimate child who wanted to harm my aunt… Could it be possible my uncle was not involved at all?” His eyes were filled with hope. “It’s definitely possible, isn’t it?” He could not believe… He could not believe that his uncle, who loved his aunt so much, would be able to do something like that... Thomas had grown up under the care of Lisa Marsh and Simon Yoder. To him, they wer

    “At least, the things you just said made me feel very uncomfortable but you had no clue of it.” Thomas greatly appreciated and admired Seth’s capabilities. However, that did not mean that Seth could belittle him countless times while he was present. It was not the first time it had happened. Seth laughed. “Excuse me. On what grounds are you speaking to me now?“I’m analyzing the problems in your family for you, but you’re blaming me for having low emotional intelligence?“Thomas Yoder, please get this straight. I’m not receiving a single cent from you.” His lips curled upward into a mocking smile as he looked at Thomas. “Do you think you’re a big deal after spending just a few days as president?“If you didn’t have Elijah supporting you, you have no idea how much of a fool you would’ve been—” “Seth!” Elijah frowned and cut Seth off before he could finish speaking.However, Seth had been angered now. He smiled coldly at Thomas as he threw down his papers with a resound

    For the rest of the morning, Thomas agonized over how he should go and apologize to Seth. Initially, Seth was supposed to work in the same office room as him. However, Seth was angry over what had happened that morning and asked the secretary to bring his things to the next room. Now, there was a pane of glass separating Seth and Thomas. Looking through the glass, he could see Seth bustling about. He did not know what Seth was working on.When he turned back around, the atmosphere in his office was gloomy too. Elijah was also sullen after what had happened that morning. Helpless, Thomas reached out to Sally for help. [I want to know… what should I do if I want to please a man?]Sally nearly began screaming as she sat in the event planning company’s office. She stared at the text Thomas sent her on her computer screen. [You want to please a man?[Did I read that wrong?[No wonder you haven’t fallen deeply in love with Evonne after marrying her. It turns out you… like guys?]

    [It’s better not… to alarm Evonne… She won’t want to help me with this.]Sally frowned and thought about it. [You’re right. I’ll help you think of another way. After all, Seth is a pretty tough person to deal with.]When she finished typing that text, their manager began calling out Sally’s name. “Hey, newcomer, can you make me a cup of coffee if you don’t have anything to do?” Sally had been sitting in her chair the entire morning and her butt was already sore. No way was she going to pass on a chance to run around! The woman immediately stood. “Coming right up!” When she finished speaking, she did not even turn off her computer before dashing off to make coffee. Evonne, who was sitting opposite her, shook her head wryly as she stood and walked over to sit down in front of Sally’s computer. She had run into some problems while writing her proposal and wanted to use Sally’s computer to look up some information. She saw that Sally had not minimized her chatbox with Thomas.

    Evonne and Seth decided to meet in a cafe near the office. To avoid a lot of people seeing them together, Evonne deliberately booked a private room on the cafe’s top floor. After ending work, Evonne bid farewell to Sally and went ahead to wait in the cafe. Sally was worried about Evonne and had quietly booked herself a seat on the cafe’s ground floor. Moreover, she had also invited Thomas. “When Seth arrives later and it turns out he brought Chelsea along with him, you need to go over and lead Chelsea away.”The minute Thomas sat down, Sally could not stop herself from assigning him a mission. The man’s face fell. “You want me to take Seth Greene’s fiancée aside?“I don’t even know her. How should I get her attention?” Sally frowned. That was a problem. However… The woman’s bright gaze landed on Thomas’ face, which looked identical to Elijah’s. “I got it!” The woman lowered her head sneakily. “You can just pretend you’re my husband, Elijah.“If Seth comes in with

    ————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
