The latter winced and the soup in his hand spilled."Where's the money?"After they left the ward, Sylvia made no secret of her ideas of Sally. "Hurry up."Sally could only hand her the envelope with three thousand dollars in it. "You must keep your word, Aunt Sylvia."Sylvia rolled her eyes. "As long as you pay me on time, I'll keep my mouth shut in front of your grandmother!"With that, she sneered at Sally.She married such a rich man but was so stingy in paying some money.After giving her the money, Sally did not have anything more to say to Sylvia, so she picked up her backpack and left.When she was walking down the hall on the first floor, she happened to bump into Javier, whom she had not seen for a long time."Sally!"Javier had begun to call her from a distance.She was going to hide from him, but when he yelled at her, she did not stand a chance.Therefore, Sally could only greet him awkwardly, "Javier, what a coincidence."She could somehow bump into him every

Sally blushed as she nodded. "Therefore, could you recommend any good part-time jobs?"Javier looked up at the sign in front of him. "Here we are. Let's have lunch first. We'll talk about it afterward."Sally could only nod and follow him into the restaurant.She was a little absent-minded during the meal.She could not stop thinking about what happened when she had lunch with Javier last time.The last time she had lunch with Javier, Elijah knew everything instantly.'Will he know this time as well?''Will he call her and send someone to take her home as he did last time?'As she finished her meal in fear, she did not hear anything from Elijah at all."You're a nursing student. I can recommend you work as a part-time nurse in a nursing home."After lunch, Javier looked through his cell phone. "I happen to have a classmate who works in a nursing home. There're a lot of part-time nursing jobs there. The pay is pretty high, but the requirements will be higher.""You took such

Even his wedding was attended by no one but his grandfather."However...""It's not that I don't want to help her."Elijah shifted into a more comfortable position and leaned back in his wheelchair. "I'll help her when she figures out how couples get along with each other."Pierre was confused by what Elijah said but seeing the man's face turn cold, he dared not ask. "Are you still going to wait for madam to come back for dinner, sir?""It's already late, why don't you eat by yourself first?"The man shook his head, his thin lips parted, and said only one word, "I'll wait."The nursing home was scheduled to close at half-past seven in the evening.Based on the time, Sally figured she could catch the last bus and be back by eight o'clock.However, it was her first day of work, and there were so many things she had to finish. She was also inexperienced, so the time dragged on until it was late.Once she was out of the nursing home, she took out her cell phone to look at the tim

Javier had been meaning to ask Sally this question since noon.However, she hemmed and hawed about some cooking class she was going to take.She was really bad at lying.A sensible and capable girl like her could not cook? No one would believe such a lie."No, I don’t."She denied with a smile.The man in the driver's seat spoke again. "You can tell me if you need money. I'm making good money even though I've only been working for a few years."Speaking of this, Javier could not help showing off, "I bought this car with my own money–two hundred thousand dollars. My classmates are all envious of me."Sally looked at him, her big eyes full of admiration. “You’re doing really well.""If only I can do as well as you, Javier."Javier smiled proudly. "As long as you work hard, there’s nothing you can’t achieve.""By the way, Sally, you haven't told me where you live!"Sally dumbly told him the address of Swan Lake Villa.Javier was stunned for quite some time. "Is it the Swan La

Javier nodded. "That's better. Your husband won't see and misunderstand us again."After watching Javier's car leave, Sally took out her cell phone and called Aunt Leigh, explaining that she was stopped at the gate.Two minutes later, Pierre showed up at the gate to the neighborhood, dressed in a suit. "Mr. Moses asked me to pick you up, madam."Sally's eyes widened.If she remembered correctly, it was already past nine o'clock.Elijah was not yet asleep?It was as if he had noticed Sally's confusion, Pierre nodded respectfully, "Mr. Moses is still waiting for you to come home for dinner.""It's already so late, he hasn't eaten yet?"Sally was so surprised her features were slightly distorted.Pierre nodded, "If you feel sorry for Mr. Moses, let's hurry back."Not daring to delay any longer, Sally followed Pierre quickly into the villa area.Seeing that Sally's backpack was a bit heavy, Pierre dutifully stopped her, took it off, and held it in his hands. The two of them quic

Sally was rendered speechless.'Is this man addicted to me feeding him?'In desperation, she cowered before carefully sitting down beside him and picked up the spoon and fork to feed him.He ate slowly and elegantly, and Sally was indescribably miserable.She was tired and hungry after all the hard work she had done at the nursing home today, and now she had to feed him as well.However, she was his wife, and feeding him was no less an obligation.In about twenty minutes, he finally finished his dinner.After putting down the spoon and fork, Sally picked up the tissue and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth.The outlines of his face looked cold and hard, but when you touched them, they were soft.His skin seemed even better than hers. It was soothing to touch and was so comforting that her heart was racing as she brushed against it.A while later, she put down her napkin and turned around to eat her dinner.After a tired and hungry afternoon, she felt she could swallow

However, Elijah did not leave her alone and asked her to read him the news.She was so tired and sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes, but she leaned against the head of her bed, forcing herself to read him the news. "Greene Corporation has had a mysterious shareholder investing in it recently, and their stock and market value soared. According to an insider, the mystery shareholder seems to be the same person as the mysterious man who helped revive Lewis Enterprise..."She did not know or understand business news. After reading it for a while, she fell sound asleep leaning against the headboard.When she fell asleep, her mouth was still blabbering on about the news.Leaning against the pillow next to her, Elijah's deep eyes stared at her for a long time. Finally, he reached out and covered her with the quilt."The most important thing between a couple is trust.""You won't tell me what you're doing because you don't trust me."He reached out and stroked her fine hair. "If

If there was a bed available, Sally would, without a doubt, jump in and get some sleep!After forcing herself to feed Elijah, she returned to her seat to eat.She almost fell asleep several times while eating.As she muddled through to school, Sally, who always listened carefully in class, felt the temptation of sleeping in class for the first time.'I'm just too sleepy.'Few other students in the class were as attentive as she was, so sleeping through one lesson should be all right.However, reality told her it was wishful thinking.The first lesson was advanced mathematics.The advanced mathematics teacher sternly told Sally to stand up and listen. "You're the only one who's hardworking in your class. Now you're slacking off too? Stand and listen to me! Reflect on your behavior!"Sally had no choice but to stand through the whole lesson in a muddle.The second lesson was politics.Entirely outside the norm, the politics teacher asked Sally to stand on the podium as a teach

————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
