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

    "When that happens, don't be mad at me."Sally looked at her and smiled. "I have to go to the nursing home after lunch."Evonne poked the spaghetti on her plate with her spoon and fork. "Take it easy. I don't want to collect your body."Knowing that she meant well, Sally took her fried drumstick and put it on her plate. "Now, eat up. Don't you have to attend dance class this afternoon?""Hmph!"After lunch with Evonne, Sally hopped on the bus to the nursing home.She was so sleepy that she fell asleep on the bus and woke up at the terminal.She had no choice but to stick a tack into the back of her hand in an effort to remind herself not to fall asleep.However, even so, by the time she got to the nursing home, she was late."Why are you so late?"Mindy rolled her eyes at her and shoved a bunch of dirty sheets into her hands. "Wash them."Sally nodded and went to the laundry room, only to find that all the washing machines were out of power.She had to return to Mindy."Th

    In Javier's opinion, Sally was married to a rich old man, so she should be living a life of luxury.Did people not say that older men knew how to pamper their wives?Could it be that... the old man refused to give her money and had been abusing her?"It's not about whether it's worth it."Sally was so tired that she neither had the energy nor mood to talk to Javier. "I'm tired, Javier. I'm going to get some sleep."With that, she closed her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and went straight to sleep.'I'm so sleepy and tired.'After a whole day without a good rest, and a lot of hard work in the nursing home, she felt drained.Sitting in the driver's seat, Javier looked at the girl that had a tired expression face through the rearview mirror. He felt uncomfortable.As he prepared to turn at the intersection at Swan Lake Villa, he made up his mind and drove the car in the opposite direction.That old man was not worth all the work she had done for him.The man had not even call

    “So hungry…”Moses Villa.Sally was seduced into waking up by the overflowing fragrance of food.“You’ve woken up?”Elijah’s cool, unreasonable voice sounded beside her, “Time to feed me.”Sally jolted and then crawled up from the table.She was now sitting at the side of the Moses Villa dining table, and her whole body was leaning against it.The man with black silk covering his eyes was seated elegantly in the chair opposite her. His movements were graceful as he lifted a teacup to sip at.She was truly starving. “Can I eat first…”“Naturally, you can eat after I’ve had my fill.”Elijah smiled lightly. “Hasn’t it always been like this?”Sally furrowed her eyebrows. She secretly felt a little displeased, but she did not show it.Sally took a deep breath and pushed herself up forcefully before going to sit at his side and then feeding him.After feeding him, she started wolfing the food down.When she had only taken a few bites, the man started making noise about wanting

    The girl’s pure white nightgown bunched up in the clear water, revealing her curvaceous figure.Her long, dark hair floated on the surface of the water.Elijah narrowed his eyes. He raised his hands and fished her out of the water before carrying her to the bed in long strides.“Get Dr. Chinn here.”After hanging up the phone, he sat on the side of the bed. With a towel in hand, he carefully wiped off the beads of water on her face.This woman. Even though she was so tired that she actually fainted, she was unwilling to frankly tell him about her recent trials.She had always said that she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. However, she had never treated him like he was her husband.That night, at the Moses family house’s back garden, she appeared before his eyes. She blinked at him with her big eyes.“I’ll be your family from now on. I’ll always be with you.”The girl’s clear voice replayed in his ears.He stroked her glossy lips as he played with them helplessl

    Elijah nodded.Originally, he had planned to not let her rest, making it so that she had to beg him for mercy and then tell him all her tribulations.He thought that, by doing so, she would have an impression of him and would remember to tell him if anything happened in the future.Only, he had not imagined the woman’s stubbornness and tenacity to surpass his expectations.She was even more willing to faint rather than vent at him and beg for mercy.She was clearly such a soft and drab little brat, yet she was so stubborn that she made one feel helpless.“This will be my first time sleeping over at your place, huh? How strange.”Jameson chuckled and placed a single hand on Elijah’s shoulder. “As expected, you’ve become more humane after marriage.”Upon saying this, he felt that he did not have the right to say so either.“However, if you really are humane, how could you allow your own wife to exhaust herself to the point of unconsciousness in front of you?”Elijah could not b

    Elijah had clearly been in a bad mood the night before. However, after she fell asleep, not only did he not wake her up, but he even got someone to carry her to bed.He had a gentle side too.Sally was a very easily-pleased girl.Her lips raised in a smile, and she walked downstairs in a good mood.In the living room downstairs, Elijah could be seen dressed in all-black clothing and leaning on the couch. Additionally, one of his hands was holding a teacup which he was sipping from.A man wearing white could also be seen sitting next to him, chattering away about the Moses family’s gossip.“You don’t know, but Wendell has become the laughingstock of high society in the last few days.“As the eldest grandson of the Moses family, he’s already near thirty. Nonetheless, merely after a few days of taking a company from his grandfather’s hands to manage, he caused the Greene family to make a racket at the door. Not only did he lose face, but even the company was also returned!“He has

    It was an involuntary smile that came from her heart.Sunlight shone through the window and onto the girl’s body, coloring her black hair gold. A lock of hair dangled playfully beside her ear, moving in the air along with her smile.Instinctively, the man reached out his hand and tucked that lock of hair behind her ear, revealing her clean profile.Sally originally had all her attention focused on Jameson and Blair. Being touched by him like that, she was immediately brought back to her senses.Upon realizing what had happened, the girl’s face reddened involuntarily.“Thank you.”After a moment, she wrinkled her brows once more. “You… How did you know…”He was blind, was he not? How could he know a lock of her hair had fallen?Otherwise, he would have only wanted to touch her, and it was a coincidence that he happened to touch that lock of hair?Elijah did not answer her question and merely changed the subject calmly. “You slept too deeply this morning. I answered a call for y

    The man nodded casually. “Getting you to feed and bathe me were also attempts to force you to be frank with me.”Sally bit her lip. She had not thought that much about it at all.By asking her to feed him, she thought that he was relying on her.By asking her to bathe him, she thought that it was because it was not convenient for him to bathe himself.Even when he made her refill the bathtub and bathe him, again and again, the day before, she had thought it was because he was in a bad mood.How could she have guessed that the man had actually been purposely ordering her about?Seeing that she was not going to say anything, Jameson, who was by the side, wrinkled his brows slightly. “Sally, you must not resent Elijah because he made you suffer. He has low EQ. If it hadn’t been for me coming today, he would definitely still be holding a grudge against you. He doesn’t really know how to express himself.”Sally pressed her lips together. A moment later, she opened her mouth, “Actuall

    ————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
