Elijah smiled. "I'm relieved that you think so too."

Freya curled her lips. "So what if you’re relieved?

"You should be going over to help her right now!

"For the past few days, I've heard the little nurses talking a lot about her affairs over the past two years, and about how many men were pursuing her. If you don't buck up, your daughter and son will soon be calling someone else's daddy!"

The man lowered his eyes and continued to peel the apple gracefully. "They won’t.”

Quincy and Freya looked at each other.

In the next second, Elijah's apple and fruit knife were snatched away again. Quincy pulled Elijah up and pushed him out of the ward. "Stop wasting your time. I’ll take care of your sister. Go see Dr. Summers now!"

After the man finished speaking, he shut the door of the ward with a bang.

Elijah stood outside the door, looked at the closed door, and sighed lightly.

‘Turns out love can really change a person.

    Besides people in that one family, she could not think of anyone else who would carry that surname."Correct."Sally flashed Assistant Director Landt a smile. "Have you heard of our family?""Of course… I’ve heard of it."Assistant Director Landt was smiling on the surface, but she was sneering inside.‘The Tate family?‘Give me a break!‘Legend has it that the Tate family is an aristocratic family in Europe!‘Why would the lady of a noble family come to a small place like Gunter City to be a little doctor?‘Don't think I’m that stupid!’The house Sally was living in was still the small apartment that the director helped her apply for when she first came to work at the hospital!‘Yet, she dares to say that Tate was her surname?‘She really isn’t afraid of getting called out!’Even though she had mockingly laughed at Sally many times before, Assistant Director Landt still had to hold herself back. She smiled faintly and sighed. "Turns out that you came from such a big famil

    A hint of gloom flashed across Sally’s eyes. The next second, she strode toward the nurses’ station and came to a stop in front of it. Elijah had his back to her and did not notice that she had come over. It was one of the nurses who was talking to him who spotted the imposing woman behind him with her sharp eyes. “Dr, Dr. Summers…” Everyone quieted down when they heard the nurse. Elijah turned to gaze at Sally. He did not even have a hint of embarrassment at being caught in the act, and he even smiled warmly at Sally as he said, “Hi.” The nurses were much less calm compared to the man. Everyone glanced nervously at Sally. ...Why did Dr. Summers seem unhappy… Did she really… get a scolding from Assistant Director Landt? “Don’t you have to work?” Sally frowned. She had not been able to hear it clearly from a distance, but now that she was closer, she could hear the alerts pinging from the nurse call button. A patient was calling for a nurse!And what were these

    Freya’s illness was a special case. Even though they did not express it outwardly, they were all curious about this particular patient. “Let’s go! I’ll take you.” Evonne waved a hand and got the junior doctors to follow her obediently, notebooks in hand. Evonne smiled as she walked by Elijah. “Had to sacrifice your sister to get rid of the third-wheelers.” Elijah laughed deeply. “She must be delighted about it.” Evonne scoffed as she left with the junior doctors. Within the blink of an eye, Elijah and Sally were left alone in the office. The woman shut the office door and turned to glare at Elijah. “You were asking the nurses about me?” “What else would I be doing?” The corners of the man’s lips curled into a smile. “I’m not interested in them.” Sally, “...” To be frank, she had always thought that there was no relationship between her and Elijah now. However, a warm feeling still spread through her heart when she heard him say that. The woman pursed her lips

    “Bargaining at a market… isn’t that what I should be doing as a mother?” Sally glared at Elijah, but there was not much confidence in the words she muttered. Even though she rebutted him, Sally knew that the way she behaved ever since she had arrived at Gunter City… was not becoming of her status as the Young Lady of the Tate family… However, that was just the way she was. She had grown up in Summers Family Village without experiencing life as a bourgeoisie, and she had not felt envious of this fact. She actually enjoyed her life now. However, she had already spoken to Assistant Director Landt to remind her of the truth. If she still did not believe her, she had only herself to blame for not being sensible.Sighing, the woman raised her gaze toward Elijah. “So should we wait for the fish to take the bait?” Elijah nodded and smiled at her. “You can even go shopping with Evonne to clear your mind.” Sally frowned. “Clear my mind?” The man’s ink-colored eyes glinted cu

    The director of the hospital had felt that there was something wrong with Sally because of her bizarre behavior lately. Thus, when Sally went to the director and head of department to ask for leave to go shopping with Evonne, the director shot the head of the department a meaningful look. The head of Sally’s department smiled as they signed the slip and said, “Sal, you should go for a walk if you’re in a bad mood. Don’t overthink things!“Evonne is your best friend. Have her talk to you and figure out what’s weighing on your mind!“Have a good rest these two days and work hard when you’re back!” Sally smiled as she nodded and turned to leave. She had already left the office when she realized that she had been permitted to take two days’ worth of leave. However, she had only asked for a one-day leave. She frowned. Thus, she pushed the door to the office open again. The head of the department was on the phone in the office. “Hi, Evonne. Yes, yes, I’ve already permitted

    Jill’s eyes widened! “Sally Summers, what did you mean by that?” She glared at Sally. “Did you just call me ugly?” “No, I didn’t.” Sally smiled calmly as she handed the lipstick she had just snatched over to the shop assistant. “Please get me another one of the same color.” The assistant took it and hurried off. Then, Sally turned to stare at Jill, who was standing by the door behind her. “I’m just stating the facts.“I don’t have any makeup on now whilst you have a full face on makeup on, Ms. Larson. You should be able to tell the difference between us.“Also, please don’t put a label on me. I didn’t say you were ugly… you said that yourself.” With that, the woman yawned as she glanced once more at Jill and said, “Ms. Larson, you usually would have turned and stomped off in anger by now.“On the surface, you might claim to not want to stoop down to my level, but you know that the truth is that you simply have nothing to retaliate with.” Jill stood by the door, her h

    Thus… she had not brought that much money with her. She had thought that two thousand dollars were more than enough. Who would have thought that two tubes of lipstick would cost three thousand and six hundred dollars? Jill, who was standing on the sidelines, yawned. “Ms. Summers, hurry up.” “I’m waiting for you to give me that lipstick!” Then, mockery flashed through her cold eyes. “Ms. Summers, don’t tell me that you don’t have enough money on you?” “Or are you going back on your word because you can’t bring yourself to spend your money?” The assistant standing beside Jill smiled slightly at Sally. “Miss, if this lipstick does not suit you, we have cheaper options in our shop…” “I have my eyes set on this color and design.” Jill crossed her arms across her chest. She seemed ready to fight Sally to the death. Sally pursed her lips. A second later, the girl sighed and gazed at Evonne. “Evonne, I didn’t bring enough money with me. Can you loan me some?” Evonne was

    Jill’s eyes widened. She took a closer look. It was indeed the word “Moses”! Sally frowned and looked at Jill with displeasure. “Ms. Larson, this card belongs to my friend. Please return it to us.” “I merely promised to buy you a lipstick. I don’t recall promising to give you my friend’s card!” Jill scoffed and stuffed the Amex Card back into Sally’s hand. “Are you sure this card belongs to your friend and not you?” The woman scoffed. “The word ‘Moses’ is embossed on the card.” “From what I know, there aren’t many people with the last name Moses. And there are even fewer people with the last name Moses who would be able to customize themselves an Amex card.” “And I don’t think your friend has anything to do with the Moses family.” She fixed her cold gaze on Sally as she spoke. “No wonder you’re willing to come shopping at a luxury mall and buy such expensive lipsticks. You’ve hooked up with the Moses family again!” Evonne frowned. “What b*llshit are you spewing?” “B

    ————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
