After saying this, the man sighed. “Seth, give Jameson a call. When you finish the call, come find me.”

Seth’s face blanched, and he nodded.

On the other hand, Elijah enveloped Sally in his arms and loped off.

Sally’s eyes were shut tight. She did not even dare to open them.

She admitted that as a medical student, she should not be afraid of any bloody scene.

However, she really did not dare to see that scene earlier.

She dared not.

Even if Wendell was a bad person who had hurt her before, she could not bear to see a scene like that…

Holding her, Elijah took large strides into the car.

“It’s alright.

“It’s alright.”

Sally flinched in Elijah’s arms. “Is this… the true Moses family?”

Elijah’s hands that were holding hers stilled slightly.

A moment later, he chuckled bitterly and nodded.

“This is the real Moses family.”

Sally nodded. Her teeth even started chattering.

She suddenly understood why Elijah had to pretend he was a blind man before this—why he had to pretend he

    Seth’s face cocked heavily to the side.He raised a hand and wiped off the blood trail from the corner of his mouth. “Nothing ended up happening to Sal. Must you use such strength?”Elijah had been in the company in a confrontation with Freya for the entire day today.Freya wanted to destroy the Moses Corporation.Elijah only wanted retribution upon Daniel Moses.The brother and sister had argued for a long time without any result.Thus, Seth though of making the first move, making Sally the bait and having Wendell Moses fall into the trap, tearing apart the messy relationships in the Moses family.Of course, he did not mention the matter of him using Sally to Elijah at all.He knew Elijah doted on this little girl, so he also did not make her suffer much.“What if Evonne had been the one with Wendell today?“If the one Wendell slapped was Evonne?”Elijah surged toward him and grabbed Seth’s collar. His obsidian eyes glared viciously into Seth’s. “You try and see if you can

    “Hubby…”“I know that you can’t really accept what happened today.”Elijah closed his eyes. “Scared?“In my body flows the same blood that flows through theirs.”Sally’s joints instantly stiffened for a moment.After that, she determinedly and earnestly shook her head. “I know you aren’t the same as them.”Elijah sighed. He lifted a hand to envelop the girl in his arms, a slightly self-depreciating smile on his lips. “The past me was the same.”Nothing to lose, nothing to miss. He could have perished together with anyone.Now, however…He raised a hand and gently caressed Sally’s head. “After I got to know you, I have indeed become different.”This was probably the reason Grandfather had ordered Shawn Summers to marry Sally to him.She was innocent, kind, adorable, full of passion, and loved life.Only a girl like this could make someone as cold as him gradually start to become human.Sally sucked in a breath as she laid in his embrace. “Is there any news from Jameson?“W

    Sally did not know how she fell asleep.All she remembered was Elijah holding her and whispering many things in her ear.Finally, he had kissed her ear and told her, “Thank you for coming to my side.”After that, she fell asleep.Fast asleep, Sally had a very strange dream.In the dream, a group of men dragged a woman into a room.She could not move, could not speak, and could only lie blankly in bed.A man’s laughter traveled from next door along with a woman’s bone-chilling cries.Listeners of that voice would end up crying and sad.Sally laid on the bed, wanting desperately to get up and speak, but she seemed to have lost the ability to ask for help.Hence, she could only listen to the bone-chillingly loud voice screaming.“Bennett.“Bennett—!“Bennett…”Finally, she heard that woman’s bone-chilling roar, “I will make sure you all die in front of me one by one!”Sally startled awake from the dream.She was covered in a cold sweat.She shut her eyes, panting for a lo

    “No, I’m not—I wasn’t—don’t talk nonsense!”Sally was overjoyed. “I’ve lost to you.“You take care of him at night, yet you say you won’t like him anymore.“Evonne Turner, you’re a duplicitous woman!”Evonne was speechless. Sally smiled, then suddenly, she felt that something was not right.“You said Seth went to the company to preside over matters?”But Aunt Leigh said Elijah had left early in the morning, saying there were company matters to deal with!“Right.”Evonne furrowed her eyebrows. “What’s wrong?”“You’re certain that he went to find Elijah but was rejected and then went to the company himself?”“Yes.”Evonne immediately sensed that something was amiss. “What’s up, Sal?”Sally’s heart sank.If Elijah did not go to the company, why did he have to lie to Aunt Leigh and herself?The woman let out a deep breath and told Evonne everything Aunt Leigh had told her just now. “I’ll go ask Aunt Leigh now.”“Sir indeed didn’t personally tell me that he was going to the

    Zoey told her through the phone about everything that happened the last time Sally and Freya met.Evonne really did not want Sally to meet the woman face to face.But…If she wanted to see Elijah, who could stop her?Evonne pursed her lips as she supported her up. "If you meet Freya later, just assume that everything she says is bullcrap!”"Ok."Sally nodded. "I won't take anything she says to heart.”Freya had hated her for a long time.Evonne sighed helplessly before helping Sally out.Elijah's ward was on the top floor of the hospital.The corridor on the top floor was heavily guarded.More than a dozen tall men in black surrounded the door of the ward."Pierre, I’m here to see Elijah."Sally was held by Evonne while her face looked haggard and pale.Pierre guarded the door of the ward and looked a little embarrassed. He said to Sally, "But Madam, Young Miss said that no one can go in without her order."Sally pursed her lips. "But I'm Elijah's wife."Evonne furrowed

    "He’s my husband."Slap!Before Sally finished speaking, Freya slapped her.Sally was already weak, so when she got slapped, her knees buckled and she almost fell to the ground."Sal!"Evonne rushed up to help Sally. She looked up and glared at Freya’s masked face. "Why did you hit her?""Because she doesn't know right from wrong.”Freya sneered.Her hateful eyes stared at Sally coldly. "I told you very clearly last time."But you still shamelessly stayed with my brother."Sally, I’ve never seen a woman quite as shameless as you!"Sally gritted her teeth and stubbornly looked at Freya with seriousness. "I wasn't the one who set you on fire."Whatever the previous generation did should not affect the relationship between Elijah and I."I love him, so I won't leave him. I don't think there’s anything wrong with that."The Sally now was different from Sally then, when all she did was cry in front of Freya. The Sally now held her gaze firmly and spoke with clarity.When she

    Sally's eyes widened in shock. "You–!"After her initial shock, she calmed down again."Turns out that Elijah’s attack had been planned by you guys.”If they were not the people behind it, why else would Freya be so sure that they could successfully frame her?"Yes."Freya looked down and fiddled with her nails. "Maybe the thought of the people that I arranged to be around him, heeding my every order when I returned, didn’t even cross Elijah’s mind.""Young Miss."Inside the ward, Ol' Joe walked up to Freya respectfully. "I’ve gotten the doctors to increase Sir’s doses. He won't be waking up anytime soon.”"Ok."Freya smiled triumphantly and looked up at Sally. "See?"Sally frowned as things became clear to her.The so-called attack on Elijah was just him being drugged by sleeping drugs.Her anxious heart finally calmed down.He was not really injured.He had only been... betrayed by his closest family member."Sis."Cynthia smiled and held the handle of the wheelchair.

    "If you can hear me, wake up!"If you don't wake up now, you’ll never see me again!"Those few words exhausted all her strength.Her tears fell in despair.When she first learned about the resentment between her uncle and the Moses family, she thought about countless ways to break up with Elijah.Little did she know, things would eventually end up this way.Elijah never had any close friends around him for many years. The only few people he trusted were Pierre, Ol' Joe, Blair, and the few.In the end however…Sally started to feel her nose and eyes sore up."No matter how much you shout, it's useless!"Cynthia gritted her teeth and glared at Sally ferociously. "Men, take her away!"The police moved Sally toward the elevator.The girl still stubbornly called out Elijah's name.Over and over, again and again.Last night, he was still by her side, hugging her, talking to her, and thanking her for her presence.In less than 24 hours, his sister and the servants around him ha

    ————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
