These women’s conversation, every single world, was like a sharp knife stabbing Sally’s heart.The hand she was holding the glass with started trembling ever so slightly.Originally, she very happily and enthusiastically thought that having a husband who could do business was so great!However, she had never considered that people would talk about her this way behind her back.However… what they said did not seem to be wrong.Since she had become this Summers Corporation’s CEO, she did not actually do anything for the Summers Corporation.Not only did she do nothing, even last night, when Elijah was negotiating that very important business, but she had also been busying herself with her own matters.However, after he had succeeded, she had come here with peace of mind, soaking up the others’ praise and enjoying the results of their labor.She… did indeed seem to be quite useless.“C… CEO Summers!”Someone bumped into her and said, surprised.The pantry instantly grew silent.

“I’m different from you!”Sally pressed her lips together. “I can see; you can’t! It’s very dangerous here!”“If you know it’s dangerous, then that’s even more reason for you to stay here with me.”Elijah lifted his head up lightly to feel the wind on the rooftop. “It’s been so long since I’ve been to such a high place and felt breeze like this.”Sally’s hand paused slightly as she was pulling him back.Her lips pressed together. “Hubby, you… want to feel the breeze here?”Elijah nodded. “You have to accompany me.“My eyes can’t see, so you are my eyes.”Sally’s body paused abruptly.A long while later, she lowered her head somewhat gloomily. “Blair is actually more suitable than I am.“He’s very skilled. Not only could he be your eyes, but he could also protect you too…“I…”“In my eyes, no one can compare to you.”Elijah smiled lightly as he grasped the hand she had placed on his wheelchair. “Sal, do you know how many criticisms and comments I’ve received since I was you

Sally was influenced by Elijah’s words, and her spirits were no longer down.She sniffled. “Hubby, you’re right.“From the start, I only wanted to be a cardiac surgeon.”Her grandmother was a heart patient. Ever since she was little, she had to witness her grandmother have to eat fast-acting heart medicine due to chest pain one too many times.She only wanted to become a doctor who could erase the pain and help many more patients like her grandmother recover.Her becoming a CEO had been an accident. Her not understanding and not knowing what to do was normal.She would return the company to Calvin Lewis sooner or later anyway.Thinking this way, she heaved a long sigh of relief, then turned to glance at Elijah. “You sure do see clearly!”Ever since she married him, she had become more and more easily influenced by others.It was probably because she felt in her bones that this was a world she did not belong to, so she always felt that everything other people said made sense.

Through the car window, Sally waved goodbye to the employees before sitting back in the car and releasing a long breath.“Everyone’s so enthusiastic!”“That’s because you’re a humane CEO.” The man whose eyes were obscured by a black silk ribbon gave her a faint smile. “How did you think of letting everyone go out to play after work?”All these years, he had not been stingy with rewarding the employees.However, the rewards he gave came in the form of cheques, if not cash.In his impression, money represented his affirmation of the employees.He had not even known that having a dinner-and-karaoke session that might not even cost up to tens of thousands could make those elites who usually earned about a few hundred thousand a year this happy. Sally smiled a little shyly. “That’s because I’m the class's student representative, so every time the results are released after the exams, I’m the one who reads it out for everyone…“Earlier, when I was reading that name-list… it made m

Elijah gave a light cough. “Ol’ Joe, start the car.”No one knew that those eyes of his that were obscured by the black ribbon were now already tightly closed.He did not dare to look into Sally’s innocent and earnest eyes.Her eyes were too clear and her gaze too pure. It was so pure that he could not bear to lie to or hide things from her.Elijah had always been aloof and proud. He was self-sustaining and knew his limits, yet at this moment, he did not even dare to meet Sally’s gaze.While he did not have a handle on things, there was no way he could tell Sally all that he had done.It was best if she did not know anything, be oblivious of everything.If she just stayed put as Elijah’s wife in name, that would be the safest bet.She was too innocent and did not know about the dangers of the world. He was afraid that she would not be able to keep secrets.And if she could not keep his secrets…He did not dare to imagine it.Of course, Sally did not know of Elijah’s complica

“And I want you to feed me in front of everyone…”Elijah massaged the space in between his eyebrows, chuckling lowly.What should he do?The allure of public displays of affection was too strong.…By the time Sally rushed into the classroom, there were two minutes left before her class started.Evonne passed her a wet wipe as she stared disdainfully at her sweaty little face. “Where the heck did you go?“Someone who’s never late actually skipped class. Just now, the history teacher asked me where you were many times. I had no choice but to lie and say you were sick.”“Thanks.”Sally smiled broadly, wiping off her sweat. “Luckily, I made it in time for this period!”“Say it. Where the hell did you go?“Was Elijah too mighty yesterday, so your legs were too weak this morning to get out of bed?”Sally was speechless. “…”She took her notebook and textbook out of her bag. “Well isn’t your imagination rich?”Evonne pursed her lips. “What if I guessed right?“Ever since you m

Evonne rolled her eyes.Sonny had threatened Sally. The evidence was irrefutable, and he deserved to get caught. Why could Sally not attend class peacefully?Sally pinched her lips together, obviously not wanting to say much to Sonny’s parents. “Sir, Ma’am, I think it’d be better for you to properly talk it out with Sonny rather than coming to look for me.“If he can admit his wrongdoing, I can pardon him.”As long as she pardoned Sonny, he would have to stay in the detention center for a few days at most, and there would be no big issues.However, Sonny’s mother laughed coldly. “Admit his wrongdoing and let you pardon him?!“Ms. Summers, you sure are unbelievably shameless!“Our Sonny already said that it was you who didn’t keep your word and wanted to ditch everyone. It was only because he was trying to make you fulfill your promise that he acted harshly!”Sonny’s mother spoke with righteousness.Evonne was angered into laughter. “Didn’t keep her word?“Why didn’t your son

“I saw him pick the chair up to hurt you, and I couldn’t help it.”Javier smiled, a little gratified. “It’s good that you’re not hurt.”His gentle voice and caring gaze made Sally feel strangely uncomfortable.She turned her face away to glance in the direction of the infirmary. “I’ll take you to apply some medicine.”After saying this, she helped Javier up and headed in the infirmary’s direction.“I’ll do it.”Evonne walked over and shoved Sally aside.She rolled her eyes at Sally as she helped Javier walk toward the infirmary. “You walk so slowly.”Sally pressed her lips together and followed silently behind her.Still, letting Evonne hold Javier was not as awkward as her holding Javier herself.Ever since that incident last time…Sally had not taken the initiative to contact Javier.She felt that touching Javier would be very awkward.Not just because Javier had misunderstood that Elijah barred him last time, it was also because… the way he looked at her and spoke to he

————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
