Sally felt horrible the entire journey home from Jameson’s clinic.

No matter whether she opened or closed her eyes, the image of Zoey rolling on the ground in pain would be replaying in front of her.

She grabbed at her hair and hit her head hard against the wall.

If Jameson had not been there, Sally, who was quite strong herself, would not have been able to stop her!

The level of pain she was in was enough to make her want to die!

She quietly clenched her hands together.

Before Zoey, Elijah had always said that his sister was a kind, gentle person.

She had never known that the sister Elijah spoke of, the one that would insist on returning home to give him a gift on the day of his birthday even when she was on a business trip overseas…

Had become this cruel.

Perhaps, a person’s psychology could become severely distorted after experiencing true pain and hatred…

The words that Zoey had said to her as they held hands rang in her ears.

    Elijah smiled and kissed her cheek. “You once said you would protect me though.” “This is my first time making a long-distance trip too… and it’s for your little sister Zoey. Don’t you think you should accompany me?” Sally pouted but had no choice but to agree to his request. In actuality, she knew that Elijah just wanted to bring her along so she could clear her head. However, she did need that at the moment. “How is she now?” Elijah kissed her cheek and asked her the question after he had gotten her to agree to his request. “I feel… really bad seeing her in this state.” Sally lowered her head and heaved a heavy sigh. She raised her head and looked at him. “When is the Tate family birthday banquet?” “In a week.” Elijah sighed deeply. “We should go over tomorrow.” “The Tate family is very strict; we need to get there earlier.”Sally pursed her lips and nodded. “What about Zoey?” They couldn’t just leave her in pain, could they? “Don’t worry.” The man ruff

    Before they set off for Europe, Sally made a trip back to school. She wanted to apologize to her advisor. She had just taken a half-month long break because of her health. And now… she had to take another for a week and three days.Her advisor was already used to it. “Ms. Summers, might I just remind you that your finals will be awaiting you when you return from your ten-day break!” “Do you still remember that you got top marks for everything in your previous semester?” “I won’t forgive you if your grades drop this semester.” Sally smiled guiltily at her advisor. “Yes, I understand.” “Don’t just understand!” The advisor rolled her eyes at her. “Bring your books along with you on your holiday. Don’t neglect your studies!” Sally nodded seriously, taking note of everything she had been told. When she returned home to pack, she obediently placed all her books into her suitcase. Aunt Leigh, “...” “Madam, aren’t you going to Europe to take a break? Why…” Why are yo

    He had not finished speaking when Elijah grabbed the phone. Sally stared at Elijah dumbfoundedly. “What did he just say you bought a lot of?” Elijah raised his fist to his lips and coughed lightly. “Time to go.” Sally turned to look at him suspiciously, then turned to look at Aunt Leigh, who was still packing. Aunt Leigh shook her head to show that she had no idea too. The man looked uncomfortably at Aunt Leigh. “I’ll ask Pierre to get our luggage.” With that, his tall figure slipped out of the room. Sally, “...” Was that man hiding secrets from her!? —————— Before they left, Sally used a map to carefully calculate the distance between A City and Italy. According to her calculations, they should… transit at S City. In the end, Elijah took her through the VIP passageway, and they took a private jet. It was Sally’s first time taking a flight, and it was in a private jet. She could not conceal her excitement after they boarded the plane. After fastening her

    Elijah extended his hand to meet Queenie’s. “Nice to meet you.” “Our car is over there.” The woman pointed elegantly at the car behind her before turning around to lead the way. Pierre and Blair were slowed down by the amount of luggage they had to carry. Thus, Elijah turned around to assist them. Sally walked up front with Queenie. She did not bother hiding her disdain towards Sally as she said, “Mr. Moses has such a successful business in Europe. I would have thought someone as successful as he would follow his heart’s desire.” “Who would have thought that he’s just like the rest of them, getting together with a woman like you for his benefit.” After saying that, she sized Sally up several times disdainfully. “You must at least be a well-known lady in your city, mustn’t you? Why are you dressed so casually?” Sally furrowed her brows in confusion. “Well-known lady?” “Yes.” Queenie laughed coolly. “The only way a wizened, unfeminine person like you could marry Mr. M

    She had not expected to see such ancient buildings in a country as exotic as Europe. The buildings were so large and magnificent that she would not be surprised if they were castles. There was a rockery, a creek, a pavilion, a long corridor with flowers carved into the walls, and a garden filled with plants. Sally was briefly convinced they were at the wrong place. Was this not… a film set? If there weren’t men in suits walking around the building, she would have thought that they had traveled back in time! Seemingly sensing their confusion, the servant in charge of leaving the way said softly, “The Old Master likes old-fashioned things, so the Young Master let him have his way and renovated the entire house.” Sally stared at her surroundings and sighed, “What a filial person the Young Master must be!” “Of course!” The servant smiled as he led them forth. “Our Young Master has always been a person who takes relationships seriously!” “The Young Madam has not been hom

    Sally remained stunned for a brief second before it became clear to her. Although she usually liked to dress in jeans and white T-shirts, she was not at home now. She was here to attend an aristocrat’s birthday banquet with him and naturally could not dress so casually. Else, she would not escape the type of mockery Queenie Tate had given her today. She pursed her lips and emptied the contents of the suitcase onto the ground. The clothes were gorgeous. They had been tailor-made by a well-known brand. The dresses were beautiful as well. The heels were studded with crystals but did not have an extremely high heel. Elijah must have noticed that she rarely wore heels. However… She stared helplessly at the mountain of perfume and makeup. She… did not know how to apply makeup… The girl gazed at Elijah with a pained expression on her face. “I regret not bringing Aunt Leigh along.” Sally had sworn that she would take Aunt Leigh with her the next time she went on a trip.

    Sally had already been feeling shy, and her face turned an even darker shade of red when she heard him call out to her so enchantingly. The girl lowered her eyelids bashfully and said gently, “Hubby…” “Umm…” Elijah furrowed his brows and passed her a face towel. “Why don’t you clean yourself up in the bathroom?” Startled, Sally looked at his face. The alarm sounded in her ears when she saw the odd expression on his face. The girl looked at him suspiciously. “Hubby, you didn’t make me look hideous, did you?” Elijah shook his head. “No.” She was his little princess; he would never think that she was ugly. Only then did Sally take the face towel and head into the bathroom. “Ahh——!!!!!” “Elijah Moses!!!!” Elijah coughed lightly when he heard the girl screaming in distress in the bathroom and opened the room to the door. “Ask around and see if the Tate family has any female servants who know how to apply makeup.” ——————“How dare you say I’m not ugly after you made

    Sally was baffled. Her mother? She stared blankly at Bennet. “You’re asking about… my mother?” “Mr. Tate." Elijah accepted the cup of tea from the servant and smiled faintly at the man. "My wife is an orphan who was adopted by her aunt and uncle when she was a child. She has no idea who her parents are." Bennet seemed startled as an uneasy expression flashed across his face. "Well... I apologize for being rude." Old Master Tate stroked his beard and gazed at Sally after hearing what he said. “Yes, they do share a resemblance.” Feeling uncomfortable under these two men’s gaze, Sally lowered her gaze and did not dare say anything else. Elijah raised his chin slightly and smiled. “I’m sorry, Old Master Tate, but I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” “Haha, it’s nothing.” The Old Master smiled. “Your wife looks very similar to someone who used to be in our family. That’s why Bennet brought up your wife’s mother so rudely.” Elijah smiled faintly. “There are many

    ————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
