Sally refused to apologize to Joan.Jameson had to do some cajoling before Sally finally agreed to go take a look at Joan.The apology would be said by him.“Good heavens! Joan, your face!”Jameson walked to the office Joan was in, pulling Sally by the sleeve, where a middle-aged woman’s very exaggerated voice traveled from.“Let Mom see. You were bitten by someone?“Which reckless b*tch dared to treat my Joan this way!”Joan pounced into the woman’s embrace, crying, “Mom… You have to take revenge for me…”Last time, when Joan had humiliated Sally, she had been disciplined by Calvin, so now, Joan did not dare to tell Calvin that something had happened. She only called her mother, Ruth Chant, over.Jameson stood at the door, the vein on his forehead throbbing involuntarily.In this kind of situation, even if he dragged Sally over to apologize, nothing would be settled…However, if they did not apologize, the police would not let them go either.Just as Jameson was hesitating

He was humbled!“You’re here to bail Sally out?”Just as Jameson bemoaned this, Joan opened her mouth. “Who are you to Sally that you would come to bail her out?”Joan smiled coldly as she stared at Jameson as if she had noticed something impossible. “Doesn’t Sally have a husband? Why didn’t her blind husband come bail her out?“Or are you saying…”Joan’s gaze scanned Jameson thoroughly from top to bottom, left to right, and front to back. “You’re Sally’s other husband?”“You!”Sally gritted her teeth, her hands clenched tightly into fists.Jameson smiled coldly as he looked at Joan. “Miss, you shouldn’t run your mouth.”“What am I running my mouth off about?”Joan smiled coldly as she edged closer to Jameson and Sally. “No wonder you can still be all cheerful after marrying a blind man.“You have a side piece.“The blind guy is responsible for the money, and the side piece is responsible for the physical stuff. Sally Summers, I was wrong. You’re not some simple-minded coun

Although Sally and Jameson had not apologized to Joan in the end, the slap mark on Jameson’s face said it all.The police did not make things difficult for them anymore.Jameson signed off, then left with Sally.Just as the two of them stepped out of the police station, Evonne dashed up quickly. “Sally, are you okay?”“I’m fine.”Sally lifted her clean and innocent face, giving Evonne a bright smile. “I’m perfectly fine.”Saying this, she turned to glance at the mark on Jameson’s face. “He’s not perfectly fine.”Only then did Evonne notice the towering man Sally came out with.“This is….”“My Hubby’s family doctor, Dr. Chinn.”Sally introduced her with a cheery smile. “This is my close friend, Evonne Turner!”Jameson raised an eyebrow. “This is the friend who prepared andrology medicine for Elijah?”The smile on Evonne’s face instantly froze. “That… That’s me.”Jameson swung his car keys, smiling lightly as he walked toward the parking lot. “Speaking of that, this Ms. Turn

“Yes.”The man let out a long sigh. “When you get back later, don’t say anything. Go to bed early after your meal. He needs some quiet.”Sally was even more confused now. “Why?”“No reason.”Obviously, Jameson did not want to explain it to her.However, Sally was someone who loved to think of ways out of a dead end. When she was at school, she had once tormented her math teacher to tears because of a math question.Hence, with her usual inquisitiveness, she continued asking Jameson as she sat in the passenger seat. “Why?“Why won’t he be eating tonight?“Why can’t I say anything?“Why is today special?“Why can’t he eat if it’s a special day? He doesn’t menstruate.”Jameson was speechless. Did this woman swallow the One Hundred Thousand Whys? Finally, he was rendered helpless. He could only take a deep breath and reply, “Today is Elijah’s birthday.”Sally’s body stiffened slightly. “His birthday?”That was not right. When she and Elijah had gotten their license, she pu

Jameson’s hands tightened around the steering wheel.Subconsciously, he spotted Sally’s innocent and pure eyes in the rearview window.In the end, he bit his lip and turned the car around. “I know a cake shop.”The car turned snaked all around the place before finally stopping at the side of an alley in the Old Town area.Jameson pointed to an old sign that said “Little Swan Pastries” and said lightly, “Go on. His sister always bought cakes for him here.”“Mhm!”Sally nodded and got out of the car with her backpack on. Then, she ran quickly toward the cake shop.Leaning back against the driver’s seat, Jameson rolled down the window and lit a cigarette for himself.Through the smoke, he saw the girl in jeans and a white T-shirt open the cake shop’s worn-out door.It was as though he was watching her push open the heart Elijah had sealed for so long.A pleased smile spread across the man’s face.The butler was right. Sally was indeed good medicine for Elijah.This girl was so

8 pm.As per Sally’s request, the servants in the villa had all left.Even the security guards were not spared as only a scattered few remained on the grounds.Wearing a white lace princess dress, Sally took a deep breath and opened the door to Elijah’s study after knocking.The lights were not on in the study.Moonlight shone in through the window, giving off a cool vibe.At the study’s executive seat, Elijah was leaning back in his wheelchair.A black ribbon covered his eyes. Sally was not sure whether he was asleep or awake, so she could only carefully turn the lights on and walk in. “Hubby?”The man’s eyebrows wrinkled slightly.This entire afternoon, Elijah had heard five European financial groups’ reports, so at this moment, he was tiredly leaning on his wheelchair as he dozed off.Thirteen years ago, his closest older sister had perished in a sea of fire on this day. He forced himself to work hard to bear the burden of his guilt.Hence, when he established those conso

The lights in the dining room were switched off. There was only the faint gleam from the candles that were set up around the area.Sally subconsciously grasped her lacey skirt. Her voice was timid, but it also carried her usual stubbornness and determination. "I know that you don’t usually celebrate your birthday, but…”She took a deep breath, looked at Elijah, and spread a sweet smile across her face. "Hubby, I’m in your life, now and forever."Her dark pupils shone from the light of candles. She looked at him with a serious expression and said, "I will celebrate your birthday with you every year from now on."He had to admit that when he saw her beautiful smile, the iciness in his heart melted a little.Her words were like a honey-covered net that enveloped his heart.Through the black silk cloth that covered his eyes, Elijah looked at her and said, "I don't want to celebrate my birthday.""It doesn’t matter that you don’t want to celebrate your birthday. I want to celebrate i

A slight smile finally rose from Elijah's slightly pressed shut lips.The candles on the birthday cake were blown out.Sally took out the candles and sliced the cake for him. "Did you make a wish?"The man stared at her intently. "I guess so."Separated by a layer of black silk, Sally did not know he was looking at her.She cut the cake with her back to him."My wish is for you to become smarter."The man spoke in a neutral tone.Sally did not know how to react to what he had said.She pursed her lips and looked somewhat helpless as she scooped up a piece of cake with the intention of feeding him. "If you say your wish out loud, it won't come true."The man ate the cake with a faint smile and said, "Then you can continue to be stupid."It was not the worst thing in the world for her to remain innocent.Sally glanced at him with some hidden bitterness and said, "I’ve told you before that I'm not stupid."He ate the cake that she fed him indifferently.

————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
