After hanging up, Sally washed her face and threw on a jacket before hailing a cab to the hospital where she worked. It was just how Evonne had described. The senior doctors who were supposed to be on call that night had left, leaving only Evonne and a few other interns behind. They were all terrified that they would not be able to handle a complex patient. Evonne slumped against a chair as she stared helplessly at Sally. “Tell me, what kind of public figure needs every single well-known doctor in the city to treat him?” Sally had a lot on her mind and only replied distractedly, “Perhaps the rich are just terrified of falling ill.” “In that case, you're the ignorant one.”A male intern standing beside them shook his head as he said that. As he scrolled through his phone, he smacked on his gum and said, “I heard that this person isn’t from A City, but another city instead.“He’s got a private doctor in the city he lives in, but he was being stubborn and refused to bring his do

——————Sally, Evonne, and a few other nurses stood at the entrance to the ICU for twenty minutes before the doctors wheeled the patient in. There were a lot of people at the scene, and Sally was just there to play a minor role, so she had been placed further the back. She had been unable to see the patient’s face clearly when they had been wheeled into the room, but she was confident that the patient was a woman. There was no way she could have mistaken that long, jet-black hair for something else. “You there, take this prescription downstairs and have them fill it out.” The senior doctor was in charge of assigning tasks. By the time he reached Evonne, only the menial tasks were left. Sally was the only one left when Evonne walked off with the prescription. The doctors frowned in thought before glancing at Sally. “Bring the patient’s family over. I have some stuff to tell them.” Sally nodded and walked amongst the crowd of people as she asked, “Who here is the patient’

In the end, Sally did not manage to enter the ward. The doctor would only allow her to gaze at the woman through the looking glass. The expression on her face was as aloof and distant as always. Her eyes shut together tightly as she lay on the bed, her lips deathly pale. The doctor sighed as he stood next to Sally and said, “The disease that the head of the Larson family has is… quite rare.“From what I can deduce, she must have been injected with some specially formulated drugs when she was young.“These drugs have been in her system for more than two years.“What’s remarkable is that your ordinary human would not have been able to stand the effects of these drugs. Most people lose their mind six months after the initial injection and inflict so much self-harm that they end up dead.“However, she managed to pull through and even survived all these years.” Sally pursed her lips. Her hands, which had been dangling at her sides, curled into fists. She felt both devastated a

She had just started living a life where both her parents were alive… The girl slumped onto the floor and sobbed soundlessly. She clamped both hands over her mouth. She understood that her mother would be able to hear the sounds of her sobbing. That would interrupt her rest. However, she could not hold it. She could not hold it in… Sally’s phone rang whilst she was still sobbing. Bennett was calling her. “Sal.” The man’s solemn voice rang out the minute she answered the phone. “Your grandfather told me about what went down when he asked you to change your last name.“Do you really like the last name Summers that much?“I need to talk to you. Where are you?” Sally took a deep breath. Her throat was so choked up, it was hard for her to even form a complete sentence. She gritted her teeth for a split instant before she caved in and sobbed, “I’m at the hospital!!!“Dad!!!“Mom… she doesn’t have much time left!” “Clang--!” She heard the sound of the phone falli

When Bennett arrived at the hospital, it had only been ten minutes since Sally broke down and sobbed to him over the phone. Sally could only imagine how fast he must have been driving as she gazed at the frantic expression on his face. Her cab ride over to the hospital had taken her almost half an hour. However, Bennett had only taken ten minutes. “Where is she?” Worry and grief was evident on the man’s chiseled face.Sally bit down on her lip as she saw how pale his face was. “She… she’s still in the ICU. Her condition just became stabilized.” She had just learned about Nicole’s illness when Bennett called her, which explained why she had not kept her emotions in check and told him everything. However, now that Bennett was standing before her with a pale face, Sally felt that she… might have made a mistake. Zane was right. If her mom had been hiding things from her so that she would not learn of her condition, how would she be willing to let her dad know… She had

The man standing behind her pulled her into his arms. Sally was startled. However, she soon let her guard down after she smelt the familiar scent of his cologne. She buried herself into Elijah’s arms and murmured, “I…” “Did I make a mistake…” “You didn’t do anything wrong.” Elijah glanced at Nicole, who was lying in the ICU ward and then at Bennett, who had slumped down onto the ground outside the ward as he sobbed. “They’ve already missed so many years.” “If you had not told him… they might not have had a chance to meet at all during this lifetime.” “It’s better for them to take the journey to the end of her life together than it is for him to live with regrets for the rest of his life.” Sally’s tears, which had just stopped, began flowing again. Why did she have to encounter the death of a parent right after reuniting with them? What’s worse was that she had always wanted to be an outstanding cardiac surgeon. However, her mother had been diagnosed with an in

Sally only slept for three hours. Elijah woke her up three hours later. He kissed her lips and said, “Uncle Tate told me not to wake you up.” “But I figured that you would much rather watch your parents reunite than continue napping.” Startled, Sally felt her sleepiness disappear instantly. She immediately sat up, got Elijah to help her down from the bed, and got ready to sprint toward Nicole’s ward. However, she had just woken up and had not regained full strength yet. She stumbled and nearly collapsed onto the ground. In the end, Elijah scooped her straight into his arms and strode toward Nicole’s ward. What Sally was most surprised at was that Nicole had still been in the ICU before she had fallen asleep, but she had now been transferred to a post-critical care unit. The door to the ward was guarded just as heavily. Zane crossed his arms across his chest as he stood at the door. His lips curled upwards into a slight smile as he said, “So, you still brought her ov

“I’ll be busy with wedding preparations, and I won’t have time.” “Let my dad take my place in caring for you.” Nicole frowned and said, “I don’t need him to take care of me!” “I’ve got Zane…” “Sorry Miss Larson, but I’m going to have to steal Zane away from you.” Nicole, “...” So, were they going to get Bennett Tate, that shameless man to take care of her no matter what it took!? The woman let out a sigh and was just about to continue protesting when Elijah said, “Miss Larson, if you don’t think that Uncle Tate will be able to care for your safety adequately...” “I can take over the task of caring for my future mother-in-law.” “However, I will need to have a clear understanding of your medical history…” The man shook his head and said vexedly, “If I recall correctly, the city library has that information…” Elijah’s words sent Nicole into a panic. Not only was her future son-in-law good at reading the room, but he was also a powerful man with connections. Peopl

————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
