It was true that she did not have the qualifications to speak to him so arrogantly…

“Before you converse with me next time, go back and ask your father what kind of tone and attitude won’t anger me first.

“This can’t happen again.”

He leaned on the couch, lazily tousling Sally’s hair.

Sally had her head lowered, holding his jacket in her hand whilst wiping off the tea leaves and splashes of tea on his jacket bit by bit.

Chelsea gritted her teeth. Staring at Sally and Elijah’s sitting so closely and acting so affectionate, jealousy filled her heart yet again.

She was wiping his clothes for him, and he was stroking her hair!

This was blatant PDA!

She was so talented and capable, yet she did not even have the right to speak to Elijah!

This Sally Summers could do nothing and knew nothing—she had a single brain cell; that was how foolish she was—yet she could have public displays of affection with Elijah in front of everyone!

What right did she have!?

She would not acknowledge th

    Sally widened her eyes and lowered her voice. "You know him?" 'Didn't Seth just come back from abroad a decade or so ago?' 'Why does Evonne know him?' She nudged Evonne on the shoulders. "When did you first met him?" Evonne pursed her lips and looked over Sally's shoulder; She looked at the man that had gone up the stairs with Elijah. His eyes were distant and cold, perhaps a little arrogant. It made her heart tighten a little. After a while, she let out a sigh. "Perhaps I got the wrong person." Sally furrowed her brows as if there was more that she wanted to say. On the other side, Seth had already escorted Elijah into the private room. The young lady pursed her lips but did not run after them to ask. Instead, she just walked over to Elijah and sat obediently next to him. Naturally, Seth sat opposite to the two of them. Evonne hesitated for a while before sitting down next to Seth. The food on the table looked decadent. It seemed that every dish was carefully pre

    "Whether or not she has time is our business."His voice was indifferent, but it was clear and cold. "I’m asking you to go out and check on her.”It was only then that Seth rolled his eyes, put down his cutlery, turned around, and walked out the door.After the door of the private room was closed again, Sally burped and looked up at Elijah. "Hubby, why did you have to kick him out?"Elijah lowered his head and fondly wiped the grease off her lips. "Two reasons.""The first reason was because I didn't want others to see how unlady-like you look when you're wolfing down the chicken drumsticks."Sally was taken aback. She looked at the chicken drumsticks that she had put on her plate and her face turned red immediately. The chef was too good of a cook that the crispy golden chicken drumsticks immediately caught her attention.However, after she piled them up on her plate, she thought that perhaps it was inelegant to eat chicken drumsticks in front of Seth, who she was not yet ver

    After Sally finished her two chicken drumsticks, she realized that the two outside had not yet come back.Sally stroked her full belly. "Why aren’t they back yet? Aren't they hungry?"If Sally recalled correctly, the two of them had not had their lunch yet.Elijah smiled. "I don’t think they’ll come back until you go out and look for them.”Sally was confused. "Why is that?"The man chuckled and kissed her delicate cheek. "They probably think that we’re doing indecent things."Sally was stunned for a while before reacting.The girl's face suddenly flushed red.She quickly stood up and strode out of the private room.In the corridor outside the private room, Seth stood in the corner smoking a cigarette.Evonne sat on a bench on the other side playing on her phone.The two of them were separated by a far distance and there was none of the spark that Elijah had mentioned earlier.Sally pursed her lips and pulled Evonne back into the private room.When they reached the door, E

    Seeing Evonne lying on the table with her eyes closed, Sally also started to feel a little sleepy.Since she was unwell, she got tired easily.Elijah took the yawning little woman into his arms, raised his eyes and glanced at Seth. "I'll leave this to you."Sally yawned and leaned on Elijah's shoulder. "Make sure you get Evonne home! Don't try anything funny with her just because she’s drunk!"Seth nudged the drunk little woman. "Get up."Evonne got up.She squinted flirtatiously and started stroking Seth's chest. "Hey Mr. Handsome..."Seth frowned and pulled her hand off.Her other hand climbed up his chest again. "Let me have a little touch..."When Elijah saw what was happening in front of him, he smiled. "I think you ought to be worried about Evonne trying anything with Seth while she’s drunk.”Sally, "..."Seth and Evonne were not Elijah’s focus anymore.He picked Sally up, strode downstairs, and got into the car.On the way back, Sally was already asleep as she leane

    "Sir, is there a problem?"Pierre asked with a tremble in his voice when he saw how the man’s aura in front of him suddenly became cold.Elijah was still standing there like a sculpture, but his aura was dark, such that anyone close to him would feel breathless.Pierre spoke even more carefully, "Sir...""Go."The man closed his eyes, his low voice grim and scary, "Go and get the street surveillance recordings of that afternoon and find out who kidnapped Javier.""Yes, sir!"Pierre quickly went downstairs as if he had just been pardoned by a king.Elijah sat in the executive chair in the study and stared at the two letters, F.M., on the piece of paper with a scorching gaze.Unlike the letter, the two letters were handwritten.His parents passed away long before. In the past, every time he took his test papers back after an exam, the woman would write the two letters , F.M. by hand. She would rub his head and say, "Right, this is your guardian’s signature sorted!”At that tim

    He raised his head in near disbelief. “Nineteen years old?” “Yes.” Pierre pursed his lips. “According to the information we have, there is no doubt that Miss Zoey Williams is 19 years old.” He had probably guessed how Elijah would react, so he lowered his head and said, “I’ve consulted relevant experts, and they said it’s normal for women to look 10 years younger than they are if they’ve taken good care of themselves.” If Freya Moses were still alive today, she would be about 29 years old. Elijah closed his eyes and laughed bitterly. “Instead of hoping that it is her, why don’t we conduct a proper investigation and see if she was born looking this way, or if she went through plastic surgery.” Pierre froze for a moment before he understood. “I’ll look into it immediately.” “Make an appointment with this so-called Ms. Williams.” Elijah lowered his head and stared at the photograph on the table, his lips curling upwards into a cold smile. “She utilized the Williams family’

    Encircled in his arms, Sally was forced to go back to sleep with Elijah. By the time she woke up again, it was already past 10 in the morning. Yawning, she turned around and was again greeted by the sight of her husband’s absence. She counted the hours on her fingers. From five to ten, he had only slept for less than five hours.Could his body stand it? She rolled about in bed for a bit more before deciding that she would drag him to bed for an early night tonight. After she had rolled around some more, she remembered that she had to call Evonne. Evonne had gotten blackout drunk last night and would not let go of Seth as she kissed him. Sally had captured the entire thing on tape. Now, there was no way she would laugh mercilessly at her over this! “Was it that bad?” Evonne’s scepticism could be heard over the phone. “I don’t think I could do that. I’m a very reserved woman.” “Pfft——!” Sally rocked back and forth as she laughed. “Evonne Turner, I didn’t know you w

    “The only thing you’ve learned from Elijah Moses after marrying him is his cunningness.” Sally pouted. “Don’t say that! My husband isn’t cunning! He’s the best!” Evonne rolled her eyes. It was true when they said love made you blind. Lips pursed, she tried to change the topic when she saw a tall, beautiful woman push open the door to The Golden Age open. Why did the person next to her seem so familiar? She raised her hand and tapped Sally on the shoulder. “Look at that woman!” Sally wrinkled her brows as she looked in the same direction. “Woah, she’s gorgeous!” The woman had on a pair of high-waisted pants in navy blue and a black scallop-edged top. She had an amazing figure that even a woman would lust over, with her long, slender legs being the main attraction. Her face was so beautiful, one could practically not take their eyes off her. Evonne frowned. “I didn’t ask you to look at her. Look at the man behind her. Isn’t that Pierre from your house?” Startled, Sall

    ————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
