The man’s eyebrows furrowed in displeasure. “Does it look like I’m alright?”Sally pressed her lips together and briefly scanned his already soaked body. It seemed as if he was not alright after all…“I have a change of clothes in the car.”Seth glanced at her impatiently before passing her the car keys. “Go bring them here.”Luckily, he used to make frequent, last-minute work trips, so he made the habit of keeping spare clothes in the car. “Oh.”Sally received the car keys and went to look around in the backseat of the car. Sure enough, she found a complete set of men’s clothing, from innerwear to outerwear.She hurriedly jogged over, carrying the clothes, then stopped in front of Seth. “Here.”Seth glared at her. “My entire body has been drenched to this extent and you want me to hold this?!”Did this servant even have the basic awareness of her role?Sally froze. That was true.She pressed her lips together. “Then I’ll hold it for you.”The man’s brows pinched together.

“Where’s your wife?”Sitting in the Moses house’s living room, Seth asked softly as he sipped tea.Elijah furrowed his eyebrows lightly. “Perhaps she’s gone to class.”When he had been eating noodles earlier, Pierre said some issues had popped up over at Europe, so he had busied himself in the study and forgotten about her.Still, she probably should have gone to class.Aside from going to class and self-studying, she did not seem to have any other interests.“Oh, so she’s still a student.”Seth purposely teased Elijah with a suggestive gaze. “I never thought that Elijah Moses—who had been abstinent for so long—would like something so tender?”Elijah smiled coldly as he poured a cup of tea and took a sip. “I remember I once said that teasing the boss is like halving your salary.”Seth smiled. “I don’t care about the bit of salary you give me.”After saying this, he stretched. “Still, using these means to call me back this time only to let you and your wife go play in a villag

The man said in a low voice.Sally raised her eyes. When her large eyes saw Elijah, they immediately curved along with her smile.She skipped over quickly and leaped into his embrace. “Hubby, you’re done with your work?”“Mhm.”Elijah smiled lightly. “What did you do? Why’re you all wet?”Only then did Sally realize she was soaked all over.The wet stains seeped into his clothes from where she hugged Elijah.She hastily got out of his arms and smiled, a little embarrassed. “I didn’t have anything to do, so I went to the courtyard to water the plants.“The hose burst just now. I fixed it myself, so I got all wet…”She pressed her lips together. “I’ll go change my clothes. I’ll be done very soon!”After saying this, the girl ran so fast upstairs that she left a trail of smoke behind.Ten minutes later, Sally—refreshingly dry—hopped downstairs.She went to return the gardener’s clothes to the gardener’s resting room first before turning back to the living room and pouncing int

Elijah laughed lightly. His gaze beneath the black silk ribbon stopped at her flat stomach. “I would very much like to give this present to Grandma, but this seed has not yet been planted a month. It wouldn’t even be the time to sprout.”Sally’s face reddened to her ears in a puff.“We’ll just have to give Grandma some, more traditional things first.”Looking at her bright red face, the man smiled, pleased. “Push me in to eat. We’ll research presents after eating, hm?”Sally nodded. “Uh-huh!”Elijah did not break his word.After dinner, he brought Sally to the mall to buy gifts.On the way to the supermarket, Sally was still a little worried at heart.Elijah could not see a thing. Going to a supermarket, he could only listen and feel things here and there.Moreover, today was Saturday. If there were many people in the supermarket, no matter how good his ears were, they would not be very useful…However, when she arrived at the supermarket, she noticed that the supermarket… ha

The girl shook her head and planted a peck on his face, smiling broadly. “Since I don’t have any other abilities, if me studying hard can allow my aunt and uncle to live well, even if I have to study for eighteen hours, I’d be willing to!”Elijah’s arms around her gradually tightened. “It’s fine as long as you yourself can live well.”Sally shook her head. “That’s too selfish.“Uncle, Auntie, and Grandma all raised me. I want to take care of them and let them live well!“Although I don’t have much ability now, when I become a good doctor in the future, then I can take care of them!”Elijah stared at her palm-sized little face and sighed lightly.If not for Sally, he—who had been born at the finish line of life—would probably never understand how much effort those who were born at the starting line had to put in.She was the kind of person he had never met before.Someone who worked hard to move up in the world, who yet loved life so passionately.Whereas he, in his past thirte

Elijah was woken up by Seth’s call.With his eyes shut, he picked up the phone. “What happened?”“Elijah Moses, what’s the meaning of this?!”Seth exploded in anger. “I asked you to send over your youngest maid. What did you get Aunt Leigh to come over for?!”Elijah yawned. “That’s probably because Aunt Leigh is the youngest one.”Things such as the age of the servants in the house were not something he cared about.“Bullsh*t!”On the other end of the call, Seth was vicious. “Yesterday, I clearly saw an even younger one at your house!”“How young?”Elijah got out of bed to wash up. “I don’t remember my house having any young maids.”“You do!” Seth was spitting with rage. “The one that I saw yesterday in the courtyard, watering the plants!“Young and beautiful, a little dumb, and exceptionally cute!“That’s the one I want!”Elijah’s brows furrowed slightly.Young, beautiful, dumb, cute.He thought about the way that little brat looked when she jumped into his arms all wet

“He’s not a good person.”The girl furrowed her eyebrows. “I knew he wasn’t a good person!“Hubby, don’t worry. If I see him in the future, I’ll definitely avoid him!”Elijah let out a low laugh. “Alright.”After breakfast, Sally started hurriedly packing the things she was going to bring back to the hometown.She put the presents she brought for her family into a car.“I’ll go too.”Blair stared at Sally for a long time, leaning on the room door, before finally opening his mouth sulkily.The boy’s clear voice made Sally unable to hold back her smile. “As long as you won’t disdain our old house being run-down, we can go together!”The more the merrier!Moreover, Uncle’s house had many rooms, so there was enough space!Hence, the young man dressed in blue returned to his room to pack in high spirits.After everything was properly prepared, Sally pushed Elijah up into the car.After the car started, Sally was so happy that she was even humming songs.Probably because her ho

Sally knew the woman speaking. It was Wynn Summers from the same village.Sally had mentioned this Wynn Summers two days ago when she was talking about her hometown with Elijah before too. She had always been at odds with Sally since they were little. Whenever there was a chance, she would stomp on Sally.Still, it was fine. During their final-year examinations, Sally had managed to get into A City University with her excellent grades whereas Wynn did not manage to get into a single course—she had to stay home and get into an arranged marriage after graduating high school.Ever since then, Sally’s world became a lot brighter.Still, Sally had never expected that she would bump into Wynn when she just spontaneously got out of the car to bring Elijah for a meal.How could she put it—Murphy’s law?Currently, Wynn was wearing a pair of huge maternity overalls as she walked coldly toward Sally.While she walked, she even had a mocking smile on her lips. “A few days ago, I heard that

————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
