Sally shook her head. “When I first landed on the ground, it hurt a lot, but after taking a few steps, it seems like it’s gotten much better.”

“That’s good then.”

The man smiled slightly and held her hand. Then, the two of them walked slowly down the long and patterned corridor, looking like a beautiful couple.

When the two arrived at the dining hall, there were already a few people seated inside.

The massive table could seat up to fifty or sixty people.

Under the attendant’s direction, Sally and Elijah sat down in their seats—which had their names carved into a plate—that they had sat in yesterday.

As before, it was boring waiting for time to pass.

Sally yawned, leaning into the crook of Elijah’s arm as she held her phone and looked at Evonne’s complaints from today.

Evonne: [Sal, this person, Zoey Williams, is really…

[She kept wanting me to find out what you like to eat, so I arbitrarily said you liked to eat chicken drumsticks.

[Do you know what happened?

    “With an ill-mannered person like you throwing her weight around, how could we possible sleep well?”Jill did not think that there was anything improper with what she said and instead doubled down. “This is the first time that I’ve seen someone who, after being invited as a guest, could actually be insolent enough to wear slippers to attend a formal occasion!”“Tsk tsk tsk, how shameful!”Queenie gave a cold laugh as well. She crossed her arms in front of her chest as she looked at Sally condescendingly. “Mrs. Moses, don’t you think you owe us an explanation?”Just as the people around them were getting all stirred up criticizing her, the two Tate men arrived.Almost the exact same moment they took their seats, Queenie began to stir up trouble. “Dad, Grandpa, take a look. That little Mrs. Moses that you all said you liked is actually such an impolite person!”On her birthday, Old Master Tate had not even put in the slightest effort to wish her happy birthday.As the biological g

    Queenie let out a cold laugh. The image of Sally and Elijah joyous in the flower garden appeared before her eyes, and narrowed her eyes. “Is being injured something that can be mentioned so casually?“Just because you say you’re injured, we’re supposed to believe that you’re actually injured?”She was so full of vigor yesterday. Did she assume Queenie did not see this?Letting out a deep breath, she waved a servant over. “Call the family doctor over.”“Queenie!”Bennett Tate frowned. “Don’t fool around!”Sally and Elijah’s chests were puffed up with confidence, so Bennett could see that the two were probably not lying.The players of a game were often oblivious to such tiny details. Queenie was already so overtaken by impulse that she actually wanted a doctor to come check the guests.If they really called the family doctor over to check on Sally’s ankle, and if Queenie was mistaken, then there would really be no end to her embarassment!Hence, Bennett shouted at the servant a

    Very soon, a servant brought the Tate family’s personal doctor, Dr. Collin, over.Dr. Collin held a first aid kit in his hand as he squatted and lifted Sally’s foot. His brows immediately knitted fiercely. “This foot is already so swollen that any regular person could see it clearly. Why was it necessary for me to check it?”Instantly, the entire dining hall was in an uproar.After all, this was a place to dine, so Sally could not simply take her swollen ankle out and show it to everyone. Not to mention, they also felt too embarrassed to come over one by one to see exactly what her foot looked like.However, Queenie and Jill could definitely see it.Hence, everybody began discussing fervently. Dr. Collin already confirmed it. Did these two rich heiresses really not see the injury on Sally’s ankle that was so heavily swollen, or did they intentionally pretend not to see it?“This swelling is a little too serious.”Dr. Collin breathed a light sigh. “Little girl, I’ll prescribe y

    Queenie’s face turned completely purple.“All Ms. Tate talks about is how the Tate family operates according to rules.”Elijah smiled blandly. He lifted a hand to elegantly pour Sally some water. “Could it be that the Tate family didn’t teach Ms. Tate that you can’t just look at one aspect when analyzing an issue?“Everyone has two legs. Isn’t this common sense?”Queenie grit her teeth tightly.For the sake of his reputation, Bennett also felt that this could not be overlooked.Hence, he turned toward his daughter and scolded her loudly. “Queenie, apologize to Mrs. Moses!”Queenie took a deep breath. Only then did she reluctantly bite her tongue and lift her gaze to look at Sally. “Mrs. Moses, I’m sorry.“I shouldn’t have assumed you were uninjured just because you purposely hid your other leg.“It was my fault. Please forgive me.”This was the first time Sally had received such a formal apology since meeting the Tate family.However, it was not very sincere.It was not ver

    After breakfast, Sally was a little worried.The thing she said about dancing for Grandpa was just a joke.This joke started because of Evonne.Every time Evonne's legs and feet pain acted up, Sally always made a big fuss over her.When Evonne got annoyed from the attention showered on her, she always told Sally, “I'm fine! I’ll probably be able to dance in front of you tomorrow!"Evonne's mother used to be a dancer. When Evonne was young, Mr. Turner sent her to dance classes that she attended for years. That was why that phrase "I’ll probably be able to dance in front of you tomorrow" became Evonne's tagline.At the breakfast banquet, Sally just wanted to joke around with Grandpa and said that sentence casually.However, the truth was…She could not dance.The little woman returned to the room and rolled around on the bed anxiously. "Oh gosh Oh gosh!"I should have said that I’d recite poems for Grandpa."Poem recitation is what I'm good at!The girl tossed and turned on

    After breakfast, for unspecified intentions, Queenie took the initiative and stood up. "Grandpa, do you remember that your beloved Sally said that she was going to dance for you yesterday?"Sally's hand that was gripping the cutleries froze instantly.Oh no! Oh no! She knew that she was not going to escape that easily!Grandpa smiled and stroked his beard. "It seems that she had indeed said such a thing."Queenie smiled a little. "I felt really bad for what I did to Mrs. Moses yesterday. After thinking about what I did yesterday, I wanted to make it up to Mrs. Moses."That was why I got some people to set up a small stage in the backyard so that all of us would be able to enjoy Mrs. Moses's dancing.”Sally, "..."Grandpa laughed out loud. "How kind of you, Queenie!”"Queenie, from what I recall, you’re a pretty good dancer yourself, right?"Jill stood up and said with a smile, "Seems like all of the women seated here are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

    After Jill finished her dance, a few other girls performed.One did a latin dance, one did a samba dance, and another played the violin.Sally was so nervous that her calves started shaking.‘These... These people are really talented!’Compared to them, she looked like an amateur…She did not look like she had the slightest bit of skill and expertise as she had earlier boasted.Soon, it was Queenie’s turn.The stage was dark.Suddenly, amidst the smoky mist and spotlight, Queenie who was wearing a traditional costume, started waving her long sleeves and danced.Sally stared blankly.‘Her dancing is almost... better than Evonne’s!’She took a deep breath and then another. In addition to admiration, there was also a sense of desolation and dread inside of her.‘Fine, let me just embarrass myself this one time…’After Queenie finished her dance, thunderous applause rang out from the audience.Bennet exclaimed, "Queenie's dancing is getting better and better.

    The music, the dance, together with the pink rabbit mascot had an indescribable comedic and hilarious effect.Old Master Tate took the lead and laughed. "How creative! Very creative!"Bennet also nodded. "This kind of mascot costume is very tiring on the wearer. She seems to be putting her heart and soul into this.”Everyone in the audience also laughed.Through the small hole in the mascot costume, Sally could see Elijah give her a thumbs up in the audience.That was when the girl jumped harder.After the dance, Sally was sweating profusely in the mascot costume.Everyone in the audience was also laughing to the point where they were exhausted.The atmosphere on and off the stage was very lively."Thank you, everyone."Sally panted through the mascot clothes and said, "I'll be leaving the stage.”“Wait!”Jill stood up, took the microphone and spoke coldly, "Can the person on stage take off your headgear?"If you don't take it off, how would we know whether you’re actually

    ————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
