Seth did not reply.

He tossed everything to Sally and said, “She can fall from grace any way she likes, it’s none of my business.”

Then, he went upstairs with a gloomy expression on his face.

Sally rolled her eyes at him.

And she rolled her eyes at him again.

Was he crazy or what!

Evonne had gotten together with the man who had been pursuing her for a year, how was that considered a fall from grace?

Besides, even though Sally felt that Howard was no match for Evonne, a relationship was something subjective.

Just like how Javier Yates had thought that Elijah was not a good match for her and that he was an evil person.

However, she knew just how great of a person Elijah was.

It was the same thing with Evonne. As her friend, she could dislike Howard, but she could stop herself from letting her personal convictions restrict Evonne.

It was a good thing that Evonne was not hung up on Seth, but that man was making it seem as if it was a crime that Evonne and Howard were

    Paula leaned on the windowsill and glanced coolly at Sally, who was taking pictures of the flowers in the flowerbeds during their break. “She’s becoming even cockier.” Zoey furrowed her brows as leaned against the window and read. “Perhaps she did not have the means to before, and now that she’s been presented with the opportunity, she’s learning to her heart’s content.” Then, she raised her gaze to look at the girl with the camera, an odd glint flashing through her eyes. “To be honest, it’s quite nice to… be able to do what you like.” Thirteen years ago, she had been deprived of that opportunity. Paula pursed her lips. “Zoey, I heard that Sally Summers will be taking part in the photography trip organized by the photography society at the end of the month. My friend in the photography society told me that there are two spots left. Should we go?” She raised her gaze to look at Sally. “If an accident occurs when we’re in the countryside…” Zoey closed her eyes. “I’m not inter

    The end of the month soon arrived. Sally woke up early the morning the photography society was scheduled to leave.This was the first time she had gone on a long-distance trip after getting married. Although her last trip to the countryside had been a long one as well, it did not count because she had been returning to her old home. Only this photography trip to Genshin County counted as a long-distance trip in her books. That early morning, Aunt Leigh woke up to help her pack. Aunt Leigh did not leave anything out and filled two large suitcases with everything from underclothes to UV jackets to raincoats. Sally laughed awkwardly as she took some things out and looked embarrassedly at Aunty Leigh. “I’ll only be gone for three days; I don’t need that much stuff.” Aunt Leigh shook her head and said, “Madam, the weather changes quickly in the mountains.” “What if it becomes warm?” “What if the temperature drops?” “What if it rains?” “What if there’s a tornado?” Sa

    Howard could not stop staring at Zoey. He had only ever known that Evonne was pretty, and Sally was cute. However, he had never known that they… had such a pretty classmate! Her beauty was totally different from Evonne’s! Sultry, elegant, and classy. “Are the two of them members of the photography society as well?” Sally spotted them the minute she boarded the bus and furrowed her brows together as she asked the question. If she recalled correctly, Zoey had only transferred to their school for a short time. How could she be a member of the photography society? Howard was jolted back to his senses. He coughed lightly and said, “They just joined a couple of days ago, I just realized too.” “I bet they did this on purpose once they saw that we were going.” Evonne shrugged and glared at them. “Can’t ever get rid of them.” Howard said awkwardly, “Do the both of you… have a grudge against these two ladies?” Evonne nodded but did not say anything else. Howard lowere

    It was unknown whether Howard did it on purpose or not, but his strength caused Zoey to nearly topple right into his arms. In the end, Zoey had to jam her elbow against his arm to prevent that from happening. “Thank you.”Her face was pale as she thanked him. Howard’s face turned red. “You’re… you’re welcome.”“Ugly wretch, trying to take advantage of Zoey!” Paula walked over and glared at Howard before pulling Zoey away. Zoey instinctively turned around to look at Howard when she left. She saw excitement and euphoria flash through his eyes. The girl’s eyes glinted coolly. So, this was Evonne Turner’s boyfriend? He wasn’t much.“Let’s go.” Evonne furrowed her brows and walked over with her suitcase. Sally wrinkled her brows as she grabbed her suitcase and leaned toward Evonne. “Did you see that?” She turned her head around to look worriedly at Howard, who was still helping the committee of the photography society clean up the bus. “If he wanted to be nice, he

    However, Paula was trying to do something nice for her. Thus, she coughed lightly and said, “Guys, I think that drawing lots might be better.” “We received news of the trip later than you did. I don’t think this justifies putting us in such an arrangement, do you?” To be honest, she was just doing it for the show and did not expect it to have any use. However, what she was not expecting was for Howard, who was one of the committee members, to purse his lips and say, “I think that Ms. Williams has a point.” No one had been expecting him to say that. Howard, Sally, and Evonne could have been the first to choose their lodgings for the night. If they used this pattern to choose their lodgings, they could have snagged themselves the best room! Who would have thought!? Silence rang throughout the mansion. In the end, the girl in charge sighed and said, “Fine. We’ll draw lots.” Amongst them, six people would have to stay in the smaller dwelling for the night. It was late

    Sally furrowed her brows together in displeasure. What did he mean by being insensitive? Howard and Evonne had not even been an official couple for a month. Besides, his enthusiasm toward Evonne in the past month seemed to have decreased drastically from when he had been pursuing her. Why should Evonne share a room with him? Besides, not only had he and Evonne not reached that stage in their relationship yet, but also, even if they had reached that point, what right did he have to request that she take the couch whilst he shared a room with Evonne?Sasha sat down next to Sally and laughed. “Howard Ziegler, are you for real? How is this insensitive?” “If it weren’t for the fact that another girl is staying with me, I would have exchanged places with you and shared a room with these two.” As he lowered his head to pick up the pieces, Howard muttered softly, “Evonne and I are a couple. What’s wrong with me wanting to share a room with her?” If he had not wanted to fast-forwar

    The countryside was dead-silent at night. You could only hear the sounds of flowing water, rustling leaves, their footsteps, and the sounds of dogs barking in the distance.Zoey breathed in the fresh air. She was in a pretty good mood. “I heard that you grew up in the country too?” She spoke softly. Sally furrowed her brows and stepped in front of her, using a flashlight to light up their path. “Yes.” “It’s a nice place to live in.” Zoey smiled. “I much prefer the freedom here compared to the restrictions of the city.” After saying that, she gazed at Sally’s back. She seemed to have more to say but then kept silent as a sudden thought occurred to her. There was a small drain in front of the mansion. Even though Sally had given Zoey her hand for support and used her flashlight to light up her path, Zoey still ended up spraining her ankle when she jumped across the drain. “Sss——!” The pampered young girl grunted softly. “You’re so careless.” Sally wrinkled her br

    Sally did not know why Zoey would be telling her these all of a sudden. She pursed her lips and smiled at Zoey. “Well, you should get some rest then.” Then, she walked out the door with her phone in hand. It was already 8 o’clock! She had promised Elijah that she would call him at 7 to report she was safe and sound! She had no idea if he would be angry because she was a whole hour late… Sally leaned against the wall in the courtyard as she whipped her phone out and dialed his number. The mansion on her left was the one the photography society had rented. It was pitch black for now. As for the mansion on her right, the one that had supposedly been rented by a tycoon was lit up. Sitting on one of the chairs placed on the balcony, Elijah smiled as he looked at the girl standing under the moonlight before directing his gaze back toward his phone. “Finally remembered to call me?” “I’m sorry hubby.” Sally immediately began apologizing. “I didn't mean to forget to tell

    ————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
