As if he could read Bennett’s mind, Elijah smiled helplessly and beckoned at Pierre. “Father-in-law, I would like to show you a recording.” While he spoke, Pierre turned on the laptop. The laptop showed surveillance footage. The footage showed Queenie, who was wearing a red coat, helping a man who had the same clothes and build as Bennett, walk out the ward. The man had a cap and mask on, but the clothes he had on was the exact outfit Bennett had worn to attend the wedding today! Even now, as Bennett sat in front of Elijah, he had on the same jacket as the one shown on the screen! Bennett’s eyebrows knotted themselves together. If he recalled correctly, Queenie was the one who had bought him the jacket he was wearing. He had always thought his daughter understood his taste in clothing, and he really liked the jacket. Thus, he would always wear it whenever he attended any formal events. Back then, Queenie had even told him that she had designed the jacket herself. It w

“My men have looked into this.” Elijah sighed and said, “Queenie planned everything.” “She arranged to have someone cause trouble for Sally and me and placed a device that would cut off the signal on our phones to ensure we would be out of the way. Then, she took advantage of the fact that my servants would not go against any of your wishes and managed to rescue Daniel Moses successfully.” “They headed straight for the harbor after they got out of the hospital.” “Daniel has already boarded a boat that will smuggle him out of Z City.” Bennett was shaking with anger when Elijah finished speaking calmly. “How could Queenie…” How could she hurt him this way! She knew he hated Daniel Moses to the very bone! If the person who hated him the most in this world was Elijah Moses, then he, Bennett Tate, would be a close second! Daniel Moses had caused his family to fall apart! However, Queenie, his beloved adopted daughter… Had left with his enemy… The man shut his eyes.

Zane laughed too. “Never would I have imagined that there would be a day where I could sit down and laugh as I listen to you talk about Sal.” In the past, he had rejected advances from any other woman as he only had eyes for Sally. That had caused him to neglect Magnolia, who had always been at his side. She might sometimes disappear, but she would always appear whenever he needed her. However, a sudden car accident had caused him to realize. How nice it felt to have someone who cared for you. He turned and gazed calmly at Elijah. “How should we let them know?” Elijah raised a hand to massage his throbbing temples. “Let’s tell them the truth.”Previously, Elijah and Zane had felt that the fewer people who knew about Daniel’s escape, the better. Elijah had not even spoken a word about it to Sally because he was concerned that she might be sad and worried. However, if keeping this a secret would affect Magnolia and Zane’s marriage… they might as well tell the truth. Af

Elijah let out a deep breath as he hugged her. “It was because of Queenie Tate.“Queenie found someone to pretend to be your father and used underhanded tactics to have that imposter switch places with Daniel.”Sally was rooted to the spot, looking as if she had been hit violently over the head with a club. “This…“So…”Magnolia opened her mouth timidly. “So last night, the reason why Zane got out of bed was because of this… and not because of me?”“Uh-huh.”Sitting on the couch opposite Magnolia, Zane smiled mildly. “Yes.”In that instant, shame started to fill Magnolia’s heart.So, so it was because of this that Zane…She had let her imagination run wild…Thinking about how she had even said first thing in the morning that she wanted to divorce him, she was so ashamed of herself that she wanted to find a hole to bury herself in.“Maggie.”Zane smiled as he looked at her, opening his mouth to speak.“Uh-huh.”“Come here.”“Uh-huh.”After agreeing, Magnolia walked over

Elijah was stunned. He did not think that even at this point, Sally could still worry about Bennett Tate.In stark contrast to the indifference with which Bennett treated Sally, Elijah felt like the woman in front of him was extremely precious.He gently lifted her chin as he gazed into her pure eyes. “You really care that much about what Bennett Tate thinks?”Sally nodded without hesitation. “Of course. He’s my father!”Even though the connection between her and Bennett was far from the relationship she had shared with Shawn Summers and his wife, at the end of the day blood relations could not be forgotten. Hence, it was only natural that she cared about what Bennett thought!Elijah looked at her face and kissed her gently. “There’s no need to hide it from him.“He already knows.”When Sally heard the man say this, her body stilled abruptly.In the next second, she lifted her eyes and looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. “How could that be…”Elijah had even hidden

She had used quite a bit of force, but the man’s face was totally calm.After a long while, once she had finally gotten tired from biting him and let go, the man even warmly stretched his other hand’s index finger toward her. “Do you want a bite from here too? So it matches.”Sally was speechless. “You’re not in pain?”Elijah smiled. “It’s not painful.“My wife kissing my finger is a dream come true.”Sally could not find the words to reply to this absurd statement.She looked at the well-defined teeth marks on the man’s finger and felt a little ashamed. It seemed… she had used a little too much strength.Even so, she could not be blamed!She had originally planned to bite him until it hurt so much that he would not be able to help but make a sound before releasing him.However, this man seemed to be forged from iron, and did not make any noise at all!He had not made a sound, so she naturally did not have a gauge for her strength. Because of this she bit too hard…The woman

Although on the surface Elijah did not seem to care about Bennett’s condition, when Sally suggested going to visit Bennett, he still tagged along.After all, during this time, the two children Sam and Little Sarah were cared for singlehandedly by Bennett. Though he treated Sally and Queenie differently, he was still really good to the two kids.In a Z City five-star hotel’s presidential suite, Bennett was gently combing Little Sarah’s hair.“Grandpa Bennett, I want pigtails! Pigtails are cuter! Mommy and Daddy will both like it!”Following the little girl’s naively adorable voice was a child’s voice filled with disdain. “That person isn’t our daddy yet. Little Sarah, you’re being too hasty. He’ll swell up!”“He is Daddy.”The girl pouted very unhappily. “Even Grandpa Bennett already said that person is our daddy. It’s definitely true!“Also!”The girl turned her head, her black grape-like eyes looking at Sam earnestly. “Take a look in the mirror. You and Daddy look exactly the

”I don’t think you’re very clever.”Little Sarah’s lips flattened. Just as she was about to say something, somebody knocked on the room door.“Sam, open the door!”Before Bennett had the chance to open his mouth, Little Sarah imitated his mannerism and started to order Sam about. “Grandpa Bennett and I are busy!”Sam lifted his head and rolled his eyes at Little Sarah. Although his face showed reluctance, he still put down the things in his hands and strode to the door to open it.Behind the door stood Sally and Elijah, bearing many gifts and snacks.“Sam!”Sally put down the things in her hands and smiled happily at the little rascal in front of her before lifting him up. “It’s been a whole night since we saw each other. Did you miss Mommy?”Sam pressed his lips together and glanced at Sally with a hint of disdain. “Ms. Sally Summers, you’re already twenty-five years old. Can you be a little more serious? Don’t ask such meaningless questions, okay?”Sally was speechless. Be

————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
