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

In the corridor outside the venue.When the woman in red passed by, she frowned at the commotion and asked, "What's the matter?"The General Manager of the hotel explained, “A group of poor students came here for dinner and couldn’t pay the bill. They’re now causing a scene.”Chelsea Greene frowned slightly and said, "Did you call the police?""No, because there is one of them who can afford to pay the bill, and they are forcing her to pay."The woman was stunned. She peered inside through the crack of the half-opened door.At a glance, she saw the woman who was held hostage with a knife.Chelsea’s eyes narrowed.‘It’s her?!’"We can't afford to ruffle her feathers."A mocking smile rose from her lips as she said, "Tell the manager inside to not call the police and waive their bill."Chelsea Greene glanced at the woman that had a knife pressed to her throat and fell in deep thought for a while."Provoke the man who’s holding the knife. Tell them that the bill will be waiv

“You’re the boss of Violet's Chateau?!”Standing to the side, Evonne was shocked as she stared at Chelsea. “The boss of Violet's Chateau is actually so young?!”“Uh-huh.”Chelsea gently wrapped Sally’s wound with a band-aid. “It’s nothing to be surprised about though. All that I have was prepared for me by my father. It can’t compare to people like Mr. Moses who built an empire from nothing.”Sally’s eyebrows furrowed. Her somewhat slow mind keenly perceived that the “Mr. Moses” Chelsea had mentioned was referring to her husband, Elijah Moses. However, did Elijah really build an empire from nothing?Was her husband not unemployed, with no career and no relatives that cared for him?Evonne shared the same uncertainty.“‘Mr. Moses built an empire from nothing’?”“Yeah.”Chelsea was still acting leisurely as she helped Sally with her shirt collar. “Mrs. Moses’s husband, Mr. Moses.”After she spoke, she half-covered her mouth as if she had just thought of something. “Could it b

However, she could not guarantee whether that Chelsea Greene had been lying.The man, Mr. Moses, was a mystery.Very soon, the car arrived at the school.Sally and Evonne went into the library.It was already past 10pm.Not a single person remained in the hallways while only a few lamps flickered teasingly.Sally opened the self-study room door.In the self-study room, a man with a black silk ribbon covering his eyes was sitting in the seat she usually occupied for self-study, pinching her phone in his hand.At his side, Ol’ Joe stood respectfully. Blair was already asleep, sprawled over her desk.When she had left, the self-study room was still very crowded.Now, only these three people were left.Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, the man raised his head. “Where did you go?”Sally froze, then smiled. “I went to karaoke and have a meal with my classmates.”“You went for karaoke and a meal, but you didn’t bring your phone?”His low voice carried the faint traces

————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
