“Sal, I heard that the doctor back in your hometown managed to cure your husband’s eyes.”

Evonne smirked as she sat opposite Sally’s lunch spot. “Aren’t you ecstatic or excited that the handsome man isn’t blind anymore?”

“That doctor of yours is pretty powerful, should we consider inviting him to our school to give a talk?”

“Your husband has been blind for so many years, but he still managed to help him regain his sight!”

Sally pursed her lips together. Her mood soured whenever this was mentioned.

She used her fork to poke at the potatoes on her plate. “It’s got nothing to do with the doctors, he was never blind to begin with.”

Evonne was dumbfounded.

Lowering her voice, she said, “Sal, don’t be ridiculous. How could your husband… not be blind?”

“He was never blind.”

Sally sniffed loudly. “I just discovered the truth for myself last night.”

Evonne’s body trembled visibly. “Does that mean… he’s been lying to everyone… including you?”

“Probably not everyone.”

    Evonne stared dumbfoundedly at Elijah before she found herself standing up and giving her seat to him. The man sat down elegantly. Pierre, who had been standing on the side, whisked away Evonne’s half-eaten food and replaced them with a fresh plate before Elijah. Sally pursed her lips and put down her cutlery. “Evonne, I’m full.” She stood and prepared to leave. However, Blair got in her way. She furrowed her brow. “Let me through.” Blair pouted. “You’re not full yet.” Sally, “...” Of course she was not full yet! She had only taken a single bite since sitting down in the cafeteria, of course she did not feel full yet! However, she did not feel like having a meal with Elijah. Memories of what had happened surfaced in her mind whenever she saw him. Especially after her conversation with Evonne, which reminded her that he had been able to see everything she had done in front of him! Whenever she remembered that he had been able to see what video she was watchin

    “If I recall correctly, Mrs. Moses once told me that she hoped that I would feed her lunch in her school’s cafeteria.” Sally’s face immediately turned crimson. “I…” Evonne was already sprawled against the table, laughing so hard she nearly choked. Her Sal had always been silly, she would never have thought that she would make such requests! Sally became even more embarrassed after seeing Evonne laugh. She bit on her lip. “Evonne, listen to me, I…” She had only said so in the first place because she wanted to motivate him to cure his eyes! Her only intention had been for him to imagine the wonderful things that would take place after his eyes had recovered! Now, they had become his ammunition to tease her! Not knowing what to do, she lowered her head and continued eating. When she finished eating, she raised her hand and was about to get herself a napkin when a large hand appeared before her. “Raise your head.” She raised her head as a reflex. A napkin peeked out

    Before Sally could stop him, Blair had run off as quickly as Evonne. Sally, “...” Now that Blair had left, there was no one left but she, Sally Summers, and Elijah Moses! She walked forth gloomily whilst the man trailed behind her, a smile glinting in his eyes as he held the umbrella. “Sal!” Sally’s seniors hollered a greeting to her from afar. “Strolling around with your boyfriend?” Two red spots appeared on Sally’s cheeks. “No…” Her senior did not even hear her, shifting her gaze over to Elijah. “Your boyfriend’s pretty handsome, where did you meet him?” Sally’s blush extended until even the tips of her ears were red. “I…” She did not know how to explain herself! Before Elijah had arrived at her school, most people had assumed her to be single! Only a select few knew that she was already married!“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you.” Having had multiple interactions with Sally, the senior had a clear understanding of Sally’s personality and stopped teasing her be

    Although she had grown up in the country, Sally had always only managed to barely pass her gym classes. Perhaps she just had not been born athletic. Sally let Elijah follow her as she walked from the courtyard to the gymnasium. As they made their way there, another three seniors gave Elijah their phone number. This was followed by plenty of others, people purposely made their way over to say hi to her and Elijah. Sally was getting tired of it. When they reached the sports centre, she turned and took a good look at the man who had attracted everyone’s attention. “My class starts in half an hour.” “I have to go to class.” “And as for you, you should either go to work or go home. Stop following me!” With that, she turned and stepped into the doors of the sports centre. After taking a few steps, she turned around uneasily. The man was standing at the door, putting the umbrella elegantly. He did not seem to have any intentions to follow her. Breathing a sigh of relief, Sal

    Sally raised her head involuntarily. Lo and behold. Who else could the man, who was striding toward them whilst dressed in a smoky gray tracksuit, be but Elijah Moses? However… Sally pursed her lips. This was probably the first time she had seen Elijah dressed in any athletic gear, asides from that one time he had put on a tank top.It’s true then, that a good-looking person would still look good even if they had nothing but a sack on. His tracksuit was identical to what their balding gym instructor was wearing, but while the instructor made it seem like loungewear, Elijah looked like a model. “Wow, this substitute is so handsome!” “Yes, he’s so handsome! And his figure is so good!“His eyes! Look at his eyes! They’re so sharp! Oh, he’s looking at me, he’s looking at me! Ahhhh!” There were lots of comments from the girls around them. Sally pursed her lips. Sometimes, having a handsome husband was not a great thing… “Hello everyone, I’m your substitute for today. My

    When it was Sally’s turn to stand at the start line, Evonne stood at the side-lines to cheer her on. Sally pursed her lips together and her gaze raised involuntarily to look at Elijah. He had taken off his jacket, and she could see that he was sporting the same white T as her.A cap was perched atop his head to block the sun’s glare, and he had a stopwatch around his neck. Paired with the name list in his hands, he seemed to radiate sunshine and energy. He did not seem like a teacher who was administering tests. Instead, he seemed like a senior who had stopped by to assist. Sally’s heart began pounding involuntarily.When he saw her staring at him, Elijah smiled gently at her. “Prepare yourself.” Sally jerked back to her senses and stared straight ahead.However, for some unknown reason, they had only run for half a mile when the girl in front of Sally began slowing down.Sally continued running at her usual speed. Her mind was filled with thoughts of Elijah and she was d

    Evonne’s eyes widened in shock. The girls nearby also widened their eyes. Why was Sally Summers getting such treatment? She had not been paying attention to her surroundings and nearly fell, and now that she was supposed to run by herself, the handsome teacher was accompanying her? A few of the girls even said vehemently, “If I had known earlier, I would have fallen as well.” “I know right! Who wouldn’t fall if they knew the hot teacher would run with them…” Evonne furrowed her brows and turned around to glare at the girls. “Would you believe me if I told you that the teacher would not spare you a glance even if you fell and broke your leg?” It was only then that the girls pouted and became silent. Sally wrinkled her brows as she looked at Elijah. “Can you do it?” Although there was nothing wrong with his legs, Elijah had been bound to a wheelchair ever since Sally had known him. Now that this man, who had been bound to a wheelchair for years, had suddenly stood up,

    After Evonne had run over to take a look, her hands shook as she dialed 911 on her phone. “What nurse’s office!? What if it’s not her period, but a miscarriage instead!?” Miscarriage. The words jolted Elijah as if he had been struck by lightning. He stared at her, shocked, for two whole seconds. Evonne explained, “Sal told me that her period was late, and I made her buy a pregnancy test just to make sure. She brushed me off and told me that it was normal for her period to be late.” “Now that this has happened, what if it’s an actual miscarriage? Nurse’s office…” She had not managed to finish her sentence before Elijah had sprinted out of the sports center with Sally in his arms. The girls gathered around her, eager to gossip. “How is Sally Summers going to have a miscarriage? Does she even have a boyfriend?” “One of the best students becoming pregnant out of wedlock, this is such big news, hahaha…” Evonne could not be bothered to continue talking with them. She put down

    ————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
