The air in the faculty office became still.

The advanced math teacher stared shocked at Elijah. “You… aren’t joking, are you?”

Sally Summers’ elder brother had such power?

“Of course not.”

Elijah smiled lightly. “If you think I’m spouting nonsense, I can get my people to take you along.

“However.”

The man’s low voice contained some derision. “However, hearing your voice, you’re probably not very young either. All of the people under my command are youths. I’m afraid they won’t suit your palate.”

The advanced math teacher’s brows wrinkled. The man in front of him was guessing that he was not very young?

“Professor, my brother can’t see.”

Seeing her math teacher taking offence, Sally hastily opened her mouth to explain.

Only then did her advanced math teacher come to a realization.

However, he was still a little unclear. “Ms. Summers, aren’t you a poor student?”

Why would she have such a guardian who would also have such… power?

Sally pressed her lips together, not knowing w

    The woman froze for a second before catching up with them once again. “Mr. Moses, I’ve waited for you the whole night. At some point, you’ll have to hear my apology, right?”Amidst the woman’s urgent tone, it sounded as if she might cry.While Sally pushed Elijah forward leisurely, the space between her eyebrows contained confusion. “Hubby, who is she?”It seemed as if she had never met this woman before.“My name is Chelsea Greene!”The woman chased up to them and started to walk next to Sally as she introduced herself to Sally. “I’m the daughter of City West’s Greene family.” Chelsea Greene?This name was a little familiar.Sally’s brows furrowed as she thought for a long moment before her eyes lit up suddenly. “You’re the one that Wendell did ‘that’ to… That person, right?”The Greene family’s daughter that had caused trouble at the Moses house the first time she went with Elijah to the Moses family house for a meal. That was Chelsea Greene, right?Sally was not talented

    Elijah kept his word.The afternoon of the next day, when the advanced math teacher arrived at the classroom, all the students were already there.The ones who were going overseas had not been able to leave, and the ones who were already abroad had been brought back.Even the exam papers had been newly redone and printed.The advanced math teacher stood at the podium and looked through the paper from beginning to finish, inwardly full of praise.These questions were much better than his previous ones!He even made the entire school’s students re-sit the exam.The exam was held as scheduled, and not even a single person complained about Sally’s mistake.A week later, Sally’s leg had nearly fully recovered.“Sally, be careful!”In the faculty office, the advanced math teacher placed all the papers into a cardboard box and sealed it with tape before passing it to Sally. “You don’t have to worry. I have a backup of all the papers, so even if they’re ruined, there would be no loss

    “Well, now that you’re back with your family, and since your family is so rich…”Evonne frowned. “Are you trying to ask Sally to treat all of you to dinner and karaoke?”Everyone was silent.The class monitor nodded. “Yeah.”“Sally had her wrongs too, in the previous make-up examination. It’s not too much to ask of her to treat us all to a meal, is it?” “Besides, with her current status… I doubt she minds spending such a small amount of money.”Evonne rolled her eyes and replied, “Even if Sally has the money, it’s not exactly her money. Don’t you think this is a bit too much?” Sally was a stubborn girl. She had not even bought any new clothes since she got married to Elijah, so why would she use his money to treat everyone to dinner?The class monitor simply ignored Evonne. “Sally is like a princess now, and besides, her family’s money will be hers sooner or later anyway.”“Sally hasn’t even said anything so why are you talking so much?” Sitting on the chair, Sal

    Sally instantly froze when she heard Evonne’s words.After a long pause, she bit her lips. “What if… we don’t order drinks?” “We’re all still students, we’re not allowed to drink alcohol, are we?” Evonne, “...” She reached out and knocked on Sally’s head several times. “You nitwit!”“When I tell you that you can’t even afford a bottle of red wine, what I mean is that the expenses there are really high!” “Just one bottle of wine would cost several tens of thousands of dollars, so can you imagine how much a meal would cost! You invited the entire class now too so the entire meal might easily cost more than a million!” “Your ten thousand bucks from your scholarship allowance is literally a drop in the bucket!”Sally bit her lips. “... Oh, I get it now.”She had thought her friend meant that the drinks were expensive.Evonne pursed her lips helplessly as she stared at the dismayed look on her friend’s face. “This is urgent, can you at least be more worried about it

    Sally recorded the voice note over and over again and pressed the ‘delete’ button after each and every time.She could not get over her embarrassment.Not only was she mortified at the message itself... she also felt like it was not convincing.After five minutes of listening to Sally go back and forth with the voice note recording, a girl who was studying in the corner could not deal with it any further and strode over. "Why are you struggling so much with this? Listen to me, just tell him, ‘Hubby, I love you, you got this!’ It’s definitely much more useful than what you just did!"Sally was speechless. She glanced at the girl and hesitantly asked, "Really?""Of course!"The girl rolled her eyes. "Every time my boyfriend hears the words ‘I love you’ from me, he would instantly be filled with energy and go above and beyond!"Sally's eyes lit up!With the help and encouragement of her fellow female classmate, Sally finally recorded a relatively complete voice note.The voic

    When Sally was dragged into the taxi by Evonne, she was still holding onto the water-based pen that she used to jot down notes.She looked at Evonne with a blank expression and asked, "What’s happening?""Please drop us off at Violet's Chateau!"After they started their journey, Evonne let out a sigh of relief and told Sally the whole story.Sally was dumbstruck.She did not expect that before she, the one who was supposed to pay, had shown up, that the class monitor would already bring along the whole class to Violet's Chateau.Did this group of people actually believe that she was rich and was willing to buy them dinner?She was in the wrong for bailing on them.However, how could she expect that..."Quick, call Elijah!"Evonne nudged her and said, "We can’t solve this issue if we don’t have any money. Get your handsome blind man to transfer some money into your account!"Sally nodded and tried to find her phone. She then turned her head and looked at Evonne helplessly. "I

    Sally had a determined look on her face.Instantly, there was uproar in the venue.Sonny stared at Sally in disbelief and asked, "Sal, why?""Didn't you promise us...""I promised you to buy you dinner, but I didn't choose this place, right?"Sonny frowned; he was a little unhappy. "I confirmed the venue with you this afternoon. You agreed on Violet's Chateau!"Sally smiled faintly and said, "Sonny, you are clearly taking advantage of the fact that I’m not from around here and I don't know what kind of place Violet's Chateau is."She did her best to recall what happened in the afternoon. "When you said Violet's Chateau, I agreed. Immediately after that, all of you disappeared. You didn’t actually have something to attend to, you were just afraid that I would find out how much a meal in Violet's Chateau would cost, right?"When Sally got serious, she could be terrifyingly calm and rational. “Since it’s my treat, I should be the one deciding on where and how much I spend. In othe

    Evonne almost applauded Sally!Sure enough, although Sally was confused about many things, her mind was still clear when it came to these sorts of situations.The expression on Sonny's face turned ugly.He looked at Sally with a warped expression, "Sal, that's not how you should go about it. When you were in trouble, our classmates reached out to help. Although... although it was not much in terms of monetary value, it was a kind gesture, right?"You can't just disregard our kind gesture just because it wasn’t a lot of money."Sally smiled at Sonny and said, "I am actually someone who knows how to be grateful. However, you can’t just take advantage of the fact that I am emphatic and have me pay for your 800,000-plus dollars meal, right? 800,000 dollars can be used to save two children who are on the verge of death and build a very good elementary school in my hometown. Putting aside the fact that I don't have so much money, even if I did, I would only use it to do meaningful thing

    ————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
