“Um… Should I undress and get on the bed, or… Should I help you undress first?”Wrapped in a bath towel, Sally Summers cautiously asked as she stood at the bathroom entrance.Tonight was her wedding night. Further away from her, a man with a black silk ribbon over his eyes sat in a wheelchair. He would be her husband from now on. It was her first time seeing him. Admittedly, he looked better than his photos. The man had angular facial features, a sharp and high nose bridge, densely dark eyebrows, a tall and slender stature. He was the physical embodiment of her Prince Charming. Unfortunately, he was a blind man who was confined in a wheelchair. Some said that Elijah Moses was born a bringer of misfortune. At nine years old, he jinxed his parents’ death; at thirteen years old, his elder sister died. After he became an adult, he brought misfortune in the form of death to his three fiancées. When Sally first heard about these rumors, she was scared too. However, her

Sally was confused. “Would you be able to wash if I leave?” He was blind, would he be able to see anything? The man did not say anything.Yet, the air temperature between them fell a few degrees lower. It seemed like she had finally noticed his anger. Thus, Sally timidly picked up the bath towel and left. “Be careful! Call me if you need anything!” Sally could not stop fidgeting after leaving the bathroom. Her eyes kept darting back in the direction of the bathroom. The bathroom was a slippery place. What if he slipped and fell? What if he was unlucky enough to die from that fall? She just got married. She did not want to become a widow that quickly. As she was feeling uneasy and anxious, her phone rang. It was her bestie, Evonne Turner, who had sent her a video. The video came with a tag that said ‘Learning Materials!’ Learning Materials? Sally opened the message while grumbling internally about how it was still way too early for their finals. Why

After saying that, Sally turned around to head back into the kitchen. The two servants hurriedly stopped her. “There’s no need, Madam.” They were employed to cook breakfast in the Moses house every day. If Sally did everything they were supposed to do, and Mr. Moses was to find out about it, would that not mean losing their job? “Madam.” One of the servants started talking in a dissatisfied tone, “Aunt Leigh and I are in charge of breakfast here. With all due respect, you’ve just arrived here and a stranger to Mr. Moses’ eating habits. Please refrain from messing things up.” The other servant went along immediately. “That’s right. Aunt Zelda is right. Please refrain from cooking, Madam.” “Mr. Moses would not eat breakfast like this.” Aunt Zelda looked at the boring and tasteless breakfast made by Sally in contempt. “A person like Mr. Moses has always had milk, ham, and sandwiches for breakfast. Madam, don’t you think that the porridge and pickled vegetables that you pr

The man’s voice was as cold as an unforgiving winter. The atmosphere in the entire dining room nearly froze. With a plop, Aunt Zelda fell straight to her knees. Redness bloomed around her eyes. “I… I shouldn’t have said that to Madam…” Elijah was usually calm and forgiving as though void of any form of temper. However, if someone made him angry, nobody could withstand him. “But Sir! I didn’t mean any ill. I just didn’t want Madam to trouble herself with breakfast. It’s quite tiring…”Elijah smiled. He lifted his head to throw a light glance in Aunt Zelda’s direction. “So… Does that give you the right to simply ruin the breakfast a newly-wedded wife made for her husband?”Silence covered the living room for several seconds. Elijah’s words did not just manage to shock Aunt Zelda and Aunt Leigh. Even Sally stared at him with her eyes wide open. Elijah was… defending her? Aunt Zelda could not stop trembling from the shock. “Didn’t… Didn’t ruin… “We didn’t throw awa

After recovering from her thoughts, Sally scrambled to pick up her phone and squeezed out a smile at Javier. “Senior… You work here?” A smile flashed across Javier’s handsome face. He extended a hand fondly and ruffled Sally’s head. “How old are you now, and still as clumsy as ever?” Sally answered him earnestly with beaming eyes. “Twenty years old.” The man turned his head to the side as he laughed. “Why are you here at the hospital?” She pointed to the consultation room behind her and replied, “My friend is chatting with her cousin.” Javier lowered his gaze to look at the time. “It’s lunchtime now. Your friend should only come out after a while.”“I’m about to have lunch. My treat?” Sally pursed her lips as she considered his offer for a while before knocking on the door to inform Evonne. “Let’s go.” Javier led the way with a smile while Sally followed him silently. Sally’s crush on Javier started when she was in Year 2 Senior. That year, her grandmoth

The atmosphere in the villa grew tense.Elijah scanned the bottles of medicine that were arranged on the table. His eyes were several degrees colder. “So, Mrs. Moses did that for me. It is I who have misjudged Mrs. Moses.”Sally was not an idiot. She understood the insult as clear as day from Elijah’s words and his eyes.The man simply gave the butler standing next to him a gesture.The butler jogged over hurriedly and removed all of the bottles.Sally felt somewhat guilty. “You asked the butler to take all of them… It is because you don’t want to eat them?”She thought he was unhappy.The corner of Elijah’s lips curved upward in a smile that did not look like a smile. He said, “Eat first.”His voice was low and piercingly low. Sally felt like the air surrounding them became cold. It looked like he was truly angry.Sally held her right hand in her left hand anxiously.Considering how it was just the second day after they got married, was it inappropriate for her to get him

Before Sally could come up with an explanation, Elijah’s extremely thin lips pressed onto hers.He locked onto her arms and had her imprisoned in his iron embrace as he willfully kissed her.Sally was dizzy from his cold breath that invaded her space.She almost thought that her soul was about to get sucked away by his kiss.He released her and smiled wickedly. “Mrs. Moses, was that to your satisfaction?”Sally’s heart twisted into a bundled mess.She struggled to break free of his grip, only to get imprisoned by him once more.The distance between them was too close and too dangerous.Sally continued her struggle in Elijah’s unending grip.Eventually, Sally ran out of energy.She pouted. “How are you so strong…?”Before marriage, Grandpa Moses had reminded her time and again that Elijah had a weak body and was prone to illness. She should take good care of him.Hence, Sally expected Elijah to be a sickly figure like her grandmother.Yet, now, her thoughts were proven to b

Wendell’s gaze made Sally feel uncomfortable in all sorts of manners.She inhaled deeply and forced out a polite smile at Wendell as she pushed Elijah in his wheelchair. She was thinking of making her way around Wendell to get through the entrance.As she neared Wendell’s side, Wendell extended an arm to stop her.“Sister-in-law, why the rush? Are you scared of talking to your brother-in-law?” He crossed his arms around his chest again. Although Wendell’s eyes were full of nothing but disgust and disdain, his voice sounded friendly and caring. “Elijah, your wife seems to be avoiding me here and there. I think there’s an eighty percent chance that she married you for another purpose.”As Wendell said that, his shrewd eyes seemed to be peering at Sally.Sally frowned and turned her body away subconsciously.That was when his eyes got more wilful. There was even a ruthless smile in the upturned corners of his lips. “Elijah, Grandfather is old. He might not be able to see through a

————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
