A car was parked at the entrance to Summers Family Village. Jane opened the door and got in. “Mr. Chinn, I’ve said what I needed to say. It’s time to send me back.” “Yes.” Jameson leaned on the back of the driver’s seat and gazed at Jane. “Mrs. Summers, I don’t understand why you felt the need to be so harsh.” Sally nearly started sobbing after hearing what she said. Jane leaned against the window and shut her eyes. “What should I do if I didn’t speak harshly?” “Tell her that there’s no man, and I’m struggling to live with Billy, Bobby, and Grandma?” “With that personality of hers, she would have made her grandma and I live with her once she heard that.” The woman smiled helplessly. “I didn’t want to be a burden.” “She has her own life and will have children of her own in the future.” Jameson started the car. “What a remarkable family you are.” “I remember that there was a country saying which said adults had children in preparation for their retirement. You had c

“He said he would protect my uncle.” Then, the girl raised her head and gazed innocently at Elijah. “Do you think Zane…” “I’ll get the security footage from the airport.” Elijah raised a hand to ruffle Sally’s hair. “You focus on preparing for your finals.” “I’ll take you along to look for your uncle once you’re done with your finals, alright?” “Alright…” Sally let out a breath and wrapped her arms around Elijah’s neck. She was about to say something else when her vision blackened, and she fainted in his arms. “She was in the rain for so long. It would have been weirder if she had not fainted.” In one of the bedrooms in the Moses household, Jameson sighed and looked at Elijah as he inserted an IV into Sally’s arm. “This girl is quite lucky.” “She would not have been this well-protected if Shawn and his wife were just a tad more crooked.” “Yeah.” Elijah shook his head helplessly. “It’s a pity that someone as innocent as her has such parents.” The security foota

Sally’s body burned from fever for the whole day. By the time she woke up the next day, she only had a day left before her finals began. However, her mind was filled with thoughts of her uncle, and she had no time to worry about her exams. She even… did not feel like taking her exams.“I don’t want to revise anymore.” The girl let out a sigh and pushed the pile of books in front of her onto the floor. Her revision materials fell onto the ground with a “thump”. As she stared at the books strewn across the floor, she realized that this was the first time she did not feel the urge to pick them up. Her studies had been extremely important to her in the past. It was because she knew that only the best grades could prove that she had tried her best and would put her family at ease. She had always wanted to provide the best she could for her family. When she had first started school, her teachers had told her that the only way she could bring her family out of the mountai

Startled, Sally turned instinctively to look at Elijah. “So, you mean…” “He did it on purpose.” “He deliberately let us know that he’s in A City and made it clear to us that he was the one who took Shawn Summers.” Sally pursed her lips. “So, what does…” What did he want to do?” “I’m not sure of that yet.” Elijah laughed coolly. “However, Sal, this is obviously a trap.” “Do you plan on going?” Sally turned and looked at the image of Shawn pulling Zane’s and Jill’s suitcases as he left with them on the screen. A second later, the girl nodded her head determinedly. “I want to go.” “I don’t know what Zane is going to do, but my uncle is with him.” “Even if it's a trap, I still want to go.” Then, she raised her head to gaze determinedly at Elijah. “Hubby, you can opt to not go if it's dangerous.” “I’ll just get Blair to accompany me.” Then, she shook her head. “I could even go myself.” “Zane Larson might be an odd person, but he wouldn’t skin me alive.” Elija

Elijah might often call Sally stupid. However, she was the furthest thing from stupid when it came to academics. After Elijah had decided on her punishment in the morning, the girl spent an afternoon in the study memorizing the contents of her textbooks. When they were done with dinner, Elijah sat on the rug in the study and quizzed her on the contents in her notes. The girl yawned as she lay on his lap and answered his questions. There were no mistakes or omissions in her answers.Elijah was surprised. He raised his hand and pinched her fair cheek. “Is your memory that good?” “Yes.” Sally nodded proudly. “I’m not just good at memorizing. My mathematical skills and logical reasoning skills aren’t bad either.” Then, she pursed her lips embarrassedly. “Although it takes me some time to see things from a different perspective.” “My teachers have always said that my brain was designed for studying.” “However…” She pouted. “I want to be a successful cardiac surgeon.

“That’s why he’s not that great with words now, compiled with the fact that he did not have many friends when he was being trained.” Elijah smiled as he drove. “Why the sudden interest in Blair?” Sally pursed her lips. “Blair used to be… a killer?” “Yes.” Elijah smiled as he continued driving. “He was a prodigy killer.” “He was only ten years old three years ago, but he could already kill the training dogs back at their base without batting an eye.” “So the organization tried getting him to kill humans.” Sally’s eyes widened in disbelief. A ten-year child… killing humans… “I was his first and last target.”A smile tugged on the corners of Elijah’s lips as he stared straight ahead. “The people who put him in charge of killing me must have thought that I was a blind man who had leg troubles.” “I must have looked like a human punching bag in front of an experienced killer.” “So they got Blair to kill me.” “However, you know how that happened.” “Not only did Blai

Sally spent her day in the exam hall. When she finished her last paper in the evening, she stretched and was just about to turn on her phone when Evonne ran up to her. She grabbed hold of Sally. “Seth just texted me. He told me to tell you not to rush home after your exams and go over to the Moses family mansion first.” Sally frowned. “Moses family mansion?” “Yes.” Evonne scratched her head. She did not fully understand what Seth had said either. “He said that you should go have a heart-to-heart with Mr. Moses Sr.” “I think Elijah needs Mr. Moses Sr to help solve whatever problem he’s facing right now.” “However, they’ve never been on good terms, so he needs your help.” Sally thought for a moment before she nodded and said, “Alright.” Seth was Elijah’s best friend. There was no need for him to lie to her. Besides, given Elijah’s nature, there was no way he would beg Mr. Moses Sr for help even if he desperately needed it. It was really up to her when it came to t

“Ahh--!” The thought had just occurred to her when the footsteps behind her came to a stop. The next second, she fell backward as someone pulled on her bag-- Sally fell into Wendell’s arms. “Let go of me!” She struggled. She had been on guard all along but had not expected Wendell to make a move against her even when she had nearly stepped into the living room! “What are you screaming about!’ The man hurriedly covered her mouth and dragged her to a secluded corner in the garden. “Did you think I would let you go when I finally found you alone?” “I was so annoyed when that blind interrupted us!” Sally struggled and bit his hand. “Let go of me!” “Have you forgotten what I swore the last time? If you ever touch me again--” Wendell became angered when she brought up what happened the last time. He raised his hand and slapped her across the face. “How dare you bring that up?” “You’re always pretending to be a pious virgin in front of me?” “And look what happened?

————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
